For production companies working with video on a regular basis, transcription and subtitling services can be essential. Most professional filmmakers have at least a general knowledge of subtitle production. However, without specialist subtitling software, high typing speeds and an understanding of the linguistic and technical conventions in subtitling, professional typing services can be far more cost effective than taking on work in-house. In this post, we’ll look in depth at Capital Captions’ post production scripts, closed captioning and typing services.

Post Production Scripts

Capital Captions offer transcription services which are for post-production editing requirements. Our services for post-production scripts include:

• Logging of Rushes

• Foreign video transcription for translation purposes
• Subtitle transcription
• Onscreen caption transcription / copy typing

Closed Captioning Services

At Capital Captions, we specialise in closed captioning for the deaf and hard of hearing. Our closed captioning services are top notch. Where broadcaster, service provider or video platform guidelines are not available, we work to our own captioning guidelines to ensure video accessibility for all audiences.

Our closed captioning services include:

• Broadcast closed captioning
• VoD closed captioning
• Captions in a range of formats including EBU-TT, TTML/DFXP, EBU-STL, CAP and more…
• Open captions, closed captions and teletext
• Web / online closed captions
• Offline closed captioning
• Foreign closed captioning including French, German, Italian, Spanish and many other languages.

Subtitling Services 

For video projects that don’t require closed captioning to comply with regulation and there is little benefit in a service which includes sound effects and speaker identification, we offer subtitling services. We work with:

• Online / web subtitles
• E-learning subtitles
• Broadcast subtitling services
• Video on Demand Subtitles
• English subtitle services
• Foreign subtitle translation (French, German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese and many other languages)
• Subtitling in formats including SRT, WebVTT, SCC, TTML/DFXP, STL and more…

For clients working with large amounts of video, looking to edit and export via Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere, we can provide NLE and EDL sequences.
