Four exercises that take a short workplace announcement from script to a captioned, readable micro-video — with no camera crew and no prior editing experience.
The assumption is that making one means equipment, editing skills and an afternoon. So the announcement goes out as another paragraph in another thread.
A ninety-second narrated clip with clean captions takes about as long as writing that paragraph carefully — once you know the four steps.
This track is those four steps, on a scenario that is already written for you.
Descript
Create and refine a concise explainer video by working with a script, transcript, and captions. Two exercises: create a narrated workplace micro-video, then edit the message and add readable captions.
CapCut
Develop a supporting visual idea and check that on-screen text is readable in a video. Two exercises: create a supporting visual concept, then review and fix on-screen text visibility.
The script is written for you
A short, privacy-safe focus-hour brief is supplied, so you are not inventing a scenario before you can start. Record it, then spend your time on the editing, which is the part that transfers.
Bring your own work
Every exercise supplies a fictional, privacy-safe scenario so you can start immediately — but the workflow is the point, and it transfers to the real thing on your desk the same afternoon.
Grounded in the tool's own docs
Each lesson ends with the vendor's own documentation pages that the exercise relies on. Nothing here is invented, and when a tool changes you can see exactly what to re-check.
Yes, completely. Create an account, start the track and work through it. There is no card, no trial and no upsell at the end.
You need an account with each of the two tools. Every exercise is written against the tool's own published documentation, and each lesson links the exact pages it relies on — check there for what your plan includes, since the vendors change their tiers regularly.
No. Everything here works as narration over a screen recording or a simple visual.
About 70 minutes across four exercises — roughly 20, 20, 15 and 15 minutes.
Yes. Complete all four exercises and your certificate of completion is issued automatically, with your name and the track title, and appears under My certificates on your account. It is also emailed to you.
