Using video and audio
All video and audio content we produce must be accessible. This means making sure that all users can access the same content, so they are not excluded.
Including captions or transcripts helps:
- users with hearing and cognitive impairments understand the content easily
- users who may want to watch or listen to content in a noisy office or on public transport
- search engines like Google and Bing find your content, this means more people access and engage with it
This video explains what captions, transcripts and audio descriptions are, why they are important and how to create them.
