Do you know of an organization that needs subtitles?

Posted on May 21, 2010 By amarasubs 9 Comments on Do you know of an organization that needs subtitles?

we'd like to help outDo you know of an organization that needs to get video subtitled? We’re getting ready to roll out a testing site soon, which means people will be subtitling stuff. We’d love to focus some of this effort towards a good cause.

If you know of an organization (or work for one) that could use subtitles, captions, or translations please let us know. We’re especially interested in folks doing educational, non-profit, or socially focused work—they will need to have videos ready to go (i.e. publicly accessible on the internet).

Email us if you have a suggestion, esp. if you can make an intro: universalsubtitles@pculture.org

    I think UNESCO is one of the organization you can work with. Plus people are easy to join. http://www.unesco.org

    First thing that comes to my mind is European Union with 23 official languages. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_union#Languages: “Important documents, such as legislation, are translated into every official language. The European Parliament provides translation into all languages for documents and its plenary sessions.”

    At the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision we provide open access to Dutch audiovisual heritage from our news reel archives. This might also be interesting for this project: http://www.openimages.eu

    Feel free to contact me for more information!

    How about Gallaudet University, it is the only liberal arts university in the world designed exclusively for deaf and hard of hearing students.

    Also, I know that the University of Maryland, where I work, needs online videos captioned. More of the classes are using these videos during lectures, but they are not accessible.
