Understand every word, hear every sound.
Don’t let the spoken language be a barrier. Whether subtitles are in the same language or a different one, they may be the difference between your audience understanding the message or looking confusedly at the screen.
While subtitles normally just transmit what’s being said, closed captions will also include information about sounds, music, and other elements that might not be accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing.
