Tag: Closed captioning

Closed captioning is the process of displaying a textual representation of audio content within a video. It provides an additional layer of information that is not conveyed through audio alone, making the video accessible to people with hearing impairments or those who may not have access to audio. Closed captions typically appear at the bottom of the screen and include the dialogue, sound effects, and other relevant audio information. Closed captioning can be added to pre-existing videos or can be included during the filming process. It is widely used in various industries, including broadcasting, education, and corporate training, to improve accessibility and enhance the overall viewing experience.

5 Issues with Closed Captioning Your Own Videos

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.
