Tag: Closed Caption Service
Closed Caption Service refers to a service provided by captioning companies or automated tools that produce closed captions, a type of subtitle that displays spoken dialogue, sound effects, and audio information for viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing, and can be turned on or off. Closed captioning has become an essential part of media content, including television shows, movies, and online videos, as it ensures that the content is accessible to a broader audience. The closed captioning process involves transcribing the audio content, syncing the text to the video, and ensuring that the captions are accurate, consistent, and readable.

5 Issues with Closed Captioning Your Own Videos
Close captioning is a great way to make videos more accessible to viewers who are hard of hearing or deaf. Unfortunately, it can often be tricky to implement with your own videos, and there are plenty of issues that you may encounter. This article will discuss 5 of the most common issues associated with close captioning your own videos, so you can be better prepared for the task.
Issue 1: Finding the Time to Do It
Close captioning is a very time-consuming process and it is often difficult to find time to do it in your own schedule. Not only does it take time to actually add the captions, but you also have to watch the video while creating the captions, which can take significantly longer than the actual captioning. It’s a good idea to break the video down into smaller parts, so you can work on it in more manageable chunks, but it still takes a lot of time to get the job done.

Empowering the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
Closed Captioning services are providing a much-needed lifeline to deaf and hard of hearing individuals, allowing them to access critical media content that would otherwise be inaccessible. By providing a text-based translation of the audio, a third-party captioning service can provide those with hearing impairments the same access to audio-based content as their hearing peers. This can include television shows, movies, educational videos and lectures, and even video calls and conferences.
