All About Our Professional Closed Captioning Service

Closed captioning unlike open captions, will display the dialogue, sound effects, speaker identifications, voice tone indication, music denotations, and other relevant video & audio nuances as text on a video screen, television, or any other visual display medium, as it goes beyond merely converting speech to text.

Closed captions need to be accurate, time-synchronized, and complete with the option of either turning them on or off. Their positioning and font should be precise too, so that they don't block the content displayed on the screen.

Adding captions to video content is a mandatory legal requirement in many countries, like the United States, as the law ensures that broadcasters, online video makers, producers, businesses, and individuals utilise them to build a reputation for providing accessible content.

At Vanan Services, we have invested in our team, processes, and technology to meet unmatched quality standards in the captioning industry to ensure your video content reaches as many people as possible.
