Video refers to a multimedia format that combines moving images and sound to convey information, tell stories, or entertain. It is one of the most widely used forms of communication across various platforms, including social media, websites, and streaming services.
For individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, or those in noisy environments, adding captions to videos is crucial for making the content accessible. Captioning involves transcribing the spoken dialogue and other relevant audio, ensuring that all viewers can understand and engage with the video. By incorporating professional video captioning services, creators can enhance accessibility, improve viewer engagement, and boost SEO. Captions also help expand a video’s reach, as they make the content discoverable by search engines and more inclusive for a global audience.
