What is the notes box for?
It’s a way for you to communicate with both CastingWords and the transcriptionist. The box may be used, for example, to list the names of podcast speakers, or to point out potentially tricky technical terms, acronyms, or spellings of words. It is helpful to include a link to the site of the original podcast, audio file, and/or relevant websites. Also, please include notes on anything in the audio file that does NOT need to be included in the transcript (please note if you DO want commercial breaks transcribed). Keep in mind that the quality of the notes included will directly affect the quality of the final transcript. A good set of notes can substantially reduce the time it will take you to edit the transcription once you receive it.
