Services · Sign Language
Digital content deserves to be accessible too. Add sign language to your videos and media.
Who is it for
Captions alone are not full access. For many Deaf people, American Sign Language (ASL) is their first language and written English is a second. Often, a signed translation carries meaning that text cannot.
This service reaches Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences watching your training videos, public announcements, webinars, and on-demand content, and it serves organizations that need to demonstrate WCAG and ADA compliance for their media library.
How it works
If you have a pre-recorded video or audio file in any spoken language, we can add a sign language interpreter to your existing content making your media accessible for Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences. Lets break it down:
We can also create sign language video translations of written documents and forms, making important information easier to access and understand.
How we deliver
We work with you to create a custom video project, matching the right interpreter to your audience and bringing your vision to life. From the look and feel to the final product, we’ll work with you every step of the way.
Our own studio and production team handle filming, lighting, and post-production, which keeps quality professional and consistent across every video in your library.
Choose picture-in-picture placement over your existing footage or a customizable layout, sized and positioned to frame your content and captions.
We translate beyond ASL for diverse global audiences, and your source content does not have to be in English. Pair the translation with subtitles into one project.
