[NFB-DB] Accessibility of Creating Closed Captioning

[Scott Davert]

I agree with Jennifer: adding a transcript in the comments section is a good way to offset this. I'm not quite sure how to add in captions manually. It is also a good idea to add who is speaking. To the transcript to eliminate confusion unless there is only 1 person speaking.
Good luck!

Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
