People just love captions and not just for the deaf and hard of hearing - Meryl Evans

Let's remind people why closed captioning is great for people, hearing and hearing-free - Jeff Frick
I was in a show, ‘Mary Poppins,’ we captioned three shows, and people were raving about it, and none of these people were deaf. They just got the most benefit out of it. It helped them fill in gaps. People just love captions and not just for the deaf and hard of hearing - Meryl Evans

Inclusive design.
Design for all makes it better for all.

The applications for closed captions are numerous, starting with say, you're in a place you just can't turn up your phone sound.

Doing them well, takes an investment
Doing them well, pays off in spades

We covered many do's and don't, and of course 'it depends?'
Thanks again Meryl
