住字幕

约翰Capobianco: When you want to do captioning, there are a couple of different things you want to think about. There's what we're doing right now, this is called real-time or live captioning. 我先说这个. With the setup we have here, I have an audio source, I have a telephone line. So we've got a POTS line that's sending 信息 to our captioners so that they can caption it. So we need an audio source, we need a captioner at a moment's notice.

One of the reasons to do business with the larger providers like us is that we have captioners, 我们有后援, 我们需要的东西都有了.

编码说明

If you're going to go to television and you want the captions on the television, 你还需要一个编码器. Captions can be streamed as they are today to a URL. It requires that you broadcast the address that you want everybody to go to. So I'd put up a sign that said, "Here's where you would pick up these captions."

If you were doing a meeting or you wanted to do a show or you wanted to do a broadcast, and you were going to do it to a URL obviously, you have to tell the audience where the captions can be found, 他们应该去什么URL地址. But that's all you have to do in order to get captioning, through internet access.

字幕支持

What you also need is 24/7/365 support to resolve the unexpected issues. 会有问题. 会有连接问题. 会有单词选择. There will be preparatory material that our captioners will need because you want them to spell names right, and if you want them to spell names right then you tell us, “这就是我们将要讨论的内容." So we get prep material to the captioners and that kind of stuff,使它们更准确, 让它对你更有价值.

多语言服务

Additionally, you want to think about what other things you might. 一个是多语言服务. 我们与大型广播网络合作, so we do their Spanish versions as well as their English versions. Especially here in Southern California you should think about having Spanish captions as well as English captions. You want somebody that can do that for you at the same time.

Recently, we responded to a larger corporate client, who wanted captions in 28 languages. It's not simple, it's not easy, but it can be done. 大多数人都不希望这样, but you have to be able to respond to the demands of the marketplace and that's what you want to look for.

用于重新利用的转录本

You also want to have the transcripts for future use. One of the things we find a lot in corporate meetings and those kinds of things where people want to do captioning is that they also want the transcript after the meeting is over. It's a record of whatever was said, whatever the communication was. Transcripts are very useful in corporate environments, as well as video itself. If you want to be able to have a transcript because you want to be able to be found on the internet, 这些东西可能非常有用.
