Match UK Parliament Speech to Video
The task here is to match up written speech being displayed from the UK Parliament’s House of Commons, to what’s being played on a video. The video is accompanied with a transcribed excerpt from the video, which needs to be timestamped at the point the speech occurs in the video. Some of the videos can be up to 1 hour long, but there is a facility to skip scenes in 10 to 30 second increments.
The timestamped video would then become available on the 'They Work For You' website, which is a service that provides provides links to Hansard speeches and written answers, organised by date, topic or MP.
Help 'They Work For You' by working for them.
