The Potential of Accessible Multimedia• Search engines leverage video transcripts
• Instructional video tutorials can help people engage with online services – cutting down calls
• Subtitles can be translated into other languages
• Interactive transcripts allow users to search or scan the dialogue and jump to key locations

Who Benefits
• People who can’t hear– Those who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing– Those whose speakers are not working– Those in noisy environments
• People who can hear– Those whose first language is not English– Those who learn better visually
• Everyone – via search engines seeking key words and interactive transcripts

Defining Best Practice
• Transcripts for Audio – information that is presented as audio only, such as podcasts, should have a transcript for those who can’t hear but do not need timing codes for synchronous display
• Subtitles or Captions for Video – The transcript should be synchronized so the text rendition of audio content is displayed at the right time

OPTIONS…The Tools and Techniques

Process Overviews
Accessible by Design Accommodation Fixes
Verify audio or video are accessible before publishing.
Publish audio or video then try to make accessible as needed.
Requires policy and resources
Ad hoc approach
Planning and production incorporates accessibility as part of standard workflow
Content is adopted or created then converted to ensure compliance – higher cost

Adopting vs Producing
• Searching for video that is already captioned can save time and money. The YouTube filter is just one example:
• Producing video in-house should incorporate workflows that minimize the need for accommodation down the line.
• Keep in mind the proposed rulemaking regarding ADA

Examples of Current and New Options• Vimeo
– No captioning support
• YouTube – Subtitle support including translation– Automatic transcripts NOT recommended– html5 player via TestTube with speed control
• html5 – No need for plugins – anticipates standard formats– See http://www.3playmedia.com/how-it-works/how-to-guides/html5-

Producing Transcripts
If a transcript is not available and has to be produced there are choices to make. The process takes time and effort because there is no automatic process that can provide reliable results at this point.
– Outsource– Do it yourself
• Express Scribe provides nice playback control• Voice Recognition allows for “revoicing”

Producing Subtitle Files
While a transcript is sufficient for an audio recording such as a podcast, for video, the text must be synchronized. There are a lot of programs to choose from that all do basically the same thing in slightly different ways.
