CCSUBS

The subtitling and captioning ecosystem remains fragmented by technology and practices. Legacy approaches are widespread for pragmatic reasons, despite limitations in presentation and global language coverage. This makes it expensive, if not impossible, to deliver great experiences. This event will bring together content providers, service providers, and product vendors to explore these challenges.

This event is a follow-up to the successful meet-ups at NAB & MWS 2024 and ongoing online meetings, and is intended to provide room for further discussion on how to deliver excellent accessibility appropriate for the streaming age. There will be presentations on approaches to creating and distributing live captions/subtitles. We will also report on the discussions and conclusions of the CCSUBS and gather feedback from the participants on the topic of live subtitling/captioning.

If you are interested in either presenting on a given topic or leading a discussion on it with the group, please contact Hewson Maxwell.

Thanks to Fraunhofer FOKUS and our sponsors there is no registration fee. The meet-up is co-located with the Media Web Symposium (MWS) through which registration will be managed.

Membership of the CCSUBS group is required for attendance. Membership is free and sign up is here
