What is Subtitling?
If you are new to subtitling, you may be wondering to start.
Text overlaying images sounds straightforward, and that’s just as it should appear: clear, simple and largely taken for granted. But how this is actually achieved, legibly and in time with what is actually being spoken might not be obvious.
Fortunately, most of the tasks you will face, whether you are a subtitler or a broadcaster, have been tackled before: from the origination of subtitles or captions (using software to actually create and time the subtitles to the content), to putting those words together with the pictures in front of the viewer (actually plugging into the broadcast workflow so that the subtitles appear on what people are watching).
And of course there’s the crucial matter of monitoring; checking and managing the process along the way.
Open or Closed?

What is Subtitling?
Open or Closed?
There are two fundamental types of subtitles/captions – open and closed; the difference is in the control the viewer has in whether they’re visible or not.
The OPEN type are ‘burnt in’ to the image and are always visible to the viewer. These are typically used for foreign language content.
The CLOSED type are hidden by default, but can be displayed or ‘opened’ by the viewer from their TV or other viewing device – for example, to provide subtitles for those with hearing difficulties or to provide a choice of languages.
