Accessible Video Production – Best Practices from The Independence Center

If the pandemic has taught us anything, it is the importance of online accessibility for people both with and without disabilities. For example, features like closed captioning allow work-from-home individuals to attend meetings and watch videos without disturbing the rest of the household. They make it easier for children with learning disabilities to comprehend the subject matter. And they allow Deaf and hard of hearing individuals to participate fully in work, learning, and social opportunities.
