Closed Captioning

Closed captioning refers to the process of adding text captions to videos or broadcasts for the deaf and hard-of-hearing audience. These captions are embedded in the video and can be turned on or off by the viewer. Closed captions are different from open captions, which are visible on the video screen at all times and cannot be turned off. 

American Transcription Services (ATS) offers high-quality closed captioning services for a wide range of video content. Our team of professional captioners ensures that captions are accurate, time-synchronized, and comply with the FCC & ADA compliance standards. We also offer customized output formats such as SRT, SBV, STL, and many more, depending on your preference.

Closed Captioning

Open Captioning

Open captioning, also known as burned-in or hard-coded captions, are permanently embedded into the video and cannot be turned off by the viewer. They are typically used in situations where closed captioning is not an option or when the video is meant for a non-English speaking audience.

ATS provides open captioning services for videos that require permanent captions, such as educational videos or foreign language films. Our professional captioners ensure that the captions are accurately placed on the video screen and are easy to read.

Subtitles

Subtitles refer to the process of adding text translations to a video for viewers who do not understand the language spoken in the video. Unlike closed or open captions, subtitles do not include sound effects, speaker identification, or other audio nuances. They are designed to provide a translation of the spoken language.

ATS offers subtitle services for a wide range of video content, including films, TV shows, and documentaries. Our team of professional translators ensures that the subtitles are accurate, easy to read, and are timed correctly with the spoken dialogue.

Real-time Captioning

Real-time captioning, also known as live captioning, is a process of adding captions to a live event in real time. This type of captioning is commonly used for news broadcasts, live sports events, and conferences. Real-time captioning requires skilled captioners who can type quickly and accurately while keeping up with the live event.

ATS provides real-time captioning services for live events, ensuring that the captions are accurate, time-synchronized, and comply with the FCC & ADA compliance standards. Our team of professional captioners has experience in captioning a wide range of live events, including conferences, webinars, and sporting events.

Web Captioning

Web captioning refers to the process of adding captions to videos that are posted online. This type of captioning is essential for online videos that are accessed by a global audience. Web captioning ensures that the video content is accessible to viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing and comply with the ADA and WCAG guidelines.

ATS provides web captioning services for a wide range of video content, including educational videos, webinars, and online training modules. Our team of professional captioners ensures that the captions are accurate, time-synchronized, and comply with the ADA and WCAG guidelines. We also offer customized output formats such as SRT, SBV, STL, and many more, depending on your preference.
