Re: [Videolib] closed captioning questioning  (no name) ((no

inexpensive software that enables us to close caption ourselves,
anything we can digitize on our Mac. Of course that makes the
closed caption master a 5:1 compressed minidv. Otherwise it was
an expensive proposition costing $1300 per half hour--not
including the transcription. For our films that we cannot
digitize we just send a transcription upon request. The software
is great, written by someone who wanted to help make films
accessible to the hearing impaired. It took us a while to get
the program configured correctly for final cut pro, but the tech
support was very helpful. I know this requires the creation of a
new master, which is not a problem for us because we only do it
for our own documentaries, but I am sure that
producers/distributors would be anxious to get closed captioned
versions out to libraries. CDF  At 06:58 PM 4/28/03 -0400, you
