Why You Need Captions
Captions play a vital role in enhancing communication across various platforms. They make the content accessible to a wider audience, especially for those with hearing disabilities or different language proficiencies. Whether you share a video on social media, give a presentation in a corporate setting, produce a movie or TV show, or offer multimedia content on your website, captions improve clarity.
We also offer multilingual subtitling services in up to 200 different languages. We implement a quality assurance process that involves reviewing Captions and Multilingual Subtitles for accuracy and coherence. This includes having a second translator and editor check the work and leveraging translation tools and software that can aid in maintaining consistency and efficiency. However, human oversight is crucial to ensure the accuracy of the final output.
Our team understands the cultural context of both the source and target languages to ensure that idioms, expressions, and cultural references are accurately translated and culturally appropriate. We follow established style guides for subtitles and captions to help maintain consistency in formatting, punctuation, and other linguistic elements.
Closed Caption Services
These text-based representations of audio content exist in online videos, TV programs, and movies. Closed captions act as a direct transcription of the spoken words and other relevant information that can help the viewer understand things better. For example, they can include identification of the speaker, background noises, or descriptions of the music. These are created with precise timing so that the caption matches up with the audio-video content.
These captions can be turned on or off by the viewer, giving them the flexibility to choose whether they want to read the text while watching the video. Closed captions are typically indicated as "CC" and can be found as an option in the settings menu of most video platforms.
Open Caption Services
Open captions do the same thing as closed captions. They serve the same process of improved communication and accessibility. However, they are an integral part of the video file and thus cannot be turned off by the viewer. This is a great service to choose when you are creating a presentation for professional purposes, educational content, social media content, and promotions that will be more effective with multiple forms of communication.
Accessible and Inclusive Captions
When you include captions on all video content, you are catering to diverse audiences that need different types of input to understand information fully. Not only do captions help those with hearing impairments, but they also offer help for those who wish to watch with the sound off or exist in noisy environments. People who speak different languages also appreciate captions as they can increase comprehension considerably.

Above all else, professionals and organizations need to be able to rely on the quality, accuracy, and timeliness of all captions they use. At Atlantic Interpreters, we have the languages and specialists necessary to create high-quality captions that you can rely on.
