I might need suggestions regarding the subtitles I'm working on at the moment... The video is about a choir that uses sign language to make music accessible to special needs people as well. After the presentation, the orchestra starts performing and some of the people start singing, while others sign the songs' lyrics.
My question is: since the performance represents a huge part of the video, am I supposed to transcribe all the lyrics too? Or do I just need to signal when the music starts and ends?
There aren't captions in the video, that's why I was wondering whether to transcribe the lyrics or not. I think I'll do it then, using note symbols. Thank you again.
I would transcribe the lyrics too, because many people who are deaf or hard of hearing do not understand sign language. Moreover, there are many different sign languages. So if there are original captions, these can then be translated into other languages.
Best,
Claude
PS Would you accept to give the link to the video, please?

What a fascinating project, Jennifer!
