Transcripts should be descriptive. Descriptive transcripts for videos also include visual information needed to understand the content.
Descriptive transcripts are needed to provide audio and video content to people who are both Deaf and blind. They are also used by people who process text information better than audio and visual/pictorial information.
Things to include in descriptive transcripts:
the names of all speakers
all speech content
relevant non-speech audio. For example, if the speaker has a glass of water and puts it down on a table and it makes a noise
any textual or graphical information. For example, if a chart is shown, the transcript needs to introduce it
indicate when it’s the end of the transcript.

Guidelines for use
Purpose:
The video player component displays video in a content page with the ability to play and pause. It includes a title, optional description and a transcript that displays in time with the video.
When to use this component:
- We use video as secondary information to reinforce the message on a content page.
- On customer story pages, video may be used as the primary content without page body content.
Content rules
- On 101, tutorial pages, transaction pages, resource articles, news articles or grant landing pages, provide lead in content above the video.
- When embedding video, insert only the YouTube ID (not the full URL) for the transcript to play correctly (e.g. NPBAdEfO9h0, rather than https://youtu.be/NPBAdEfO9h0>
- YouTube transcripts must be UK English to play on our site.
