Russian Captioning Service – Providing justice for Peter

What is Captioning?

Captioning is the use of written texts used to express dialogues and describe scenes occurring on the screen. It differs from subtitles as such that it is more informative (describes scenes, emotion, and context of the on-screen content) while subtitles are more minimalistic expressing only the dialogues that take place. Captioning thus helps people suffering from hearing impairment to enjoy a more immersive and experiential onscreen content. Besides it is very helpful for a non-native speaker of the language to comprehend what is happening on-screen which might be missed due to various reasons like esoteric accents, tones, and dialects. Captioning also helps new users to learn the new language at a faster pace.
