Hi! I would love to proofread the English subtitles and translate them to Italian, but CZcams doesn't give me the option… Do you have a way of giving me access to the subtitles? OR I could download and upload on my channel, but I would be happier to translate them directly on this video! :) Thanks! And good job!

[@edidano]

sottotitolifattibene I don't know how the subtitles work. I will ask. If you do figure out a way please let me know. Cheers!

Hi Dan O'Connor! The channel should have a way to enable or disable the editing of the subtitles, but I don't know how.
The easiest way would be to download, add the Italian subtitles on Final Cut and then upload again, on my channel or yours or whomever, as long as it's viewable :)
I'm part of an improv blog where we translate cool international articles and videos for Italian improvisers (improvvisatori.it)
(Looking forward to meeting you in Milano!)
