Closed Captioning
What is Captioning?
Captioning is the process of converting the audio content of a television broadcast, webcast, film, video, live event, or other productions into text and displaying the text on a screen, monitor, or other visual display system. Captions not only display words as the textual equivalent of spoken dialogue or narration, but they also include speaker identification, sound effects, and music description.
Captioning makes audio and audiovisual material accessible and provides a critical link to communication, information, education, news, and entertainment for more than 36 million Americans who are deaf or hard of hearing. For individuals with limited English proficiency and for English-language learners, English-language captions improve comprehension and fluency.
Captioning can be done virtually and provide access to any event, whether a zoom meeting, conference or college classroom. Our captioners are certified with a myriad of experience. Please reach out to schedule captioning services.
