Subtitles On Phones, Tablets Or Large Screens

Globetitles is a captioning and electronic playbill system. It transmits subtitles to phones and tablets and large screens too. It complements opera, theater, films, concerts, presentations or any live event.

Multiple channels can be provided simultaneously, in both closed and open formats, over wireless or wired connections.

With Globetitles' Livetype service, you also can transcribe a spontaneous live event, captioning it on audience screens in real time, on its own or interspersing it with scripted content.

With their own devices, your audience can:

  • Attend an Italian opera, while reading along in English
  • Watch an English play and follow it in different languages
  • Receive assistance for hearing loss with captions in the language of performance (see "an important message" below)
  • Enjoy real time supplemental commentary
  • Browse an electronic program or playbill

An Illustration

The schematic below illustrates use of Globetitles for captions, translations and commentary, here for the Act III opening of Wagner's Die Walküre (with a few liberties).

English

"Open" English

Hoyotoho!

The mounted screen above represents an "open" translation, meaning it is displayed in view of the whole audience.

The smartphones illustrate "personal" or "closed" channels, meaning they are transmitted to each viewer personally.

They include captions in the language of performance, and multilingual translations and commentary.

Question:

What was Richard Rodgers' first name?

(Hint: Yes, it's that easy. It's to screen robots.)

Please consider sharing the following short film about helping people with hearing loss with captions.

It was made and distributed by a volunteer organization named the Collaborative for Communication Access via Captioning (CCAC), and is also available directly on YouTube.
