Introduction to Timed Text
DESCRIPTION:
Captions, subtitles, and transcripts deliver a host of benefits for archival audiovisual media, providing access for users who need (or enjoy) them while also enhancing curatorial work through computational analysis. In this 3-hour webinar, participants will learn about creating, editing, preserving, and using timed text, highlighting the variety of approaches to the ethical, technical, and budgetary challenges inherent to this work.
This webinar is aimed at any LAM staff who work with digital audiovisual media, no special software or computing resources are necessary.
