Subtitling in Hull
Adding captions and subtitles to Hull organisations' video. Two audiences need them for different reasons — deaf and hard of hearing viewers, and the large proportion of social video watched with sound off — and the same file usually serves both if it is produced properly.
Why this comes up
The problem
Video is published without captions. Social posts perform poorly because most viewers never hear them, and the content is inaccessible to anyone who cannot.
What you get
What we deliver
- Accurate captions rather than raw automatic output, which misreads names and terms
- Timing that lets people read comfortably rather than matching speech exactly
- Speaker identification and relevant sound described where it carries meaning
- Burned-in versions for social, where separate caption files are not used
- Caption files supplied for platforms that support them, which also aids search
- Accessibility standards met where public sector obligations apply

Subtitling in Hull — common questions
- Is automatic captioning good enough?
- As a starting point. It misreads names, technical terms and anything said over background noise, and published unreviewed it produces captions that are wrong in exactly the places that matter. Correcting automatic output is far quicker than captioning from nothing.
- What is the difference between subtitles and captions?
- Captions are intended for viewers who cannot hear, so they identify speakers and describe meaningful sound; subtitles assume the viewer hears and typically carry dialogue only. For accessibility purposes the caption version is what is required.
- Do we have a legal obligation?
- Public sector bodies in the UK have accessibility requirements covering published video, and other organisations have duties under the Equality Act around reasonable adjustments. Beyond obligation, uncaptioned video excludes people who would otherwise be an audience.
- Burned-in or caption files?
- Burned-in for social, where caption files are frequently ignored by the platform or the viewer. Files elsewhere, since they can be toggled, translated and read by search engines. Producing both from the same transcript costs very little extra.
- Do you work with businesses across East Yorkshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Yorkshire & the Humber, including Hull and the surrounding East Yorkshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Hull businesses do you usually work with?
- Port, freight and renewables supply chain systems, plus connectivity work that has to account for the local network. Beyond that we work across Ports & Maritime, Renewable Energy, Manufacturing, Healthcare and Logistics.
- Do you cover the areas around Hull?
- Yes — we work throughout Yorkshire & the Humber, including York, Leeds, Doncaster. Hull is an urban area of roughly 290,000+, and we take on work across the wider East Yorkshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
