Hi everybody it's Bonnie Gean from BonnieGean.com.
Welcome back to today's video. In today's video, I'm going to show you a quick way to
export audio from a video file so that you can use that
audio file to later transcribe it into a blog post. So let's get started. As you can see,
I'm inside of my Camtasia screen capturing program and I have my video all laid out on the timeline
and ready to go. So now, in order to export the audio from this video,
we're going to go up here to file and w
e're going to choose Produce Special and then
click "Export audio as..." and click that. It's going to open up a box into your computer and then
what you want to do is you want to pick the directory
that you're going to put this in, and name that file. So since this is my number
24 audio file for the week, I'm going to name it exactly
that, and I'm going to hit the Save button. And, it's going to
ask you (if it's already there), it's going to ask you if you
want to over-write it and if it
's not, just say okay - and that quickly our audio
has been exported from this video file. Now the next stage, that we want to do in this video is
take that audio file and transcribe it using a program
called Dragon Naturally Speaking. So... let's do that next. Go into Dragon
Naturally Speaking, choose Tools and Transcribe
Recording. Choose next for the default, find the file on your
computer, highlight it and then click Open. And... then hit the transcribe button. Dragon Naturally Speaki
ng will go through that audio file and transcribe it for you as best as it can and put it into this little notepad. Now you're going to
find out that it's going to give you one big blob of text,
but trust me on this... It's going to be a lot easier for you to edit this text, and
separate the paragraphs and add the punctuation than
it would be for you to sit here at your computer, and type it manually as you're trying
to listen to a video. You're going to constantly go back
to that video, a
nd stop and start in order for you to copy the text over to your wordpad, so this here, for
me, works a lot better and I hope it works, you know,
as good for you. So, once Dragon Naturally Speaking is done transcribing this for you than just highlight the text, right-click your mouse, choose copy and then go over to Microsoft word and place your cursor into Microsoft Word and do a Control V on your keyboard to paste the text. And, then you're ready to start your punctuation where it needs to g
o!
