Write captions for a replay clip with enough context

Replay captions should tell new viewers what is being shown and whether dated information still applies.

Treat each published item as something a reader may encounter without seeing the original live. Identify the product or problem, supply the missing context and check whether any time-sensitive details still apply. Keep a link or internal reference to the source recording so corrections can be traced. Reusing material should make a useful answer easier to find, rather than simply create more copies of the same promotion.

A practical procedure

1. Identify the product, variant and demonstrated task.

2. Explain the recording context when it affects interpretation.

3. Replace expired buying information with a current verified reference.

Worked example: a fictional session

A fictional caption names the narrow organiser and explains that the clip demonstrates measuring its depth.

Check the limits

Do not present a replayed stock statement as a fresh inventory check.

Before using this during a live, ask a second person to follow the steps without extra explanation. Note the point where they hesitate, revise that instruction, and keep the checked version with the session materials.

Your next step is to apply this checklist to one upcoming session. Explore Aseacast with these requirements in mind and confirm which parts of your workflow it supports.
