Closed Captioning Services in Savannah, Georgia

Yes. Closed captioning is ordered here exactly as it is anywhere else - upload the material, approve the written quote, receive the finished work by email. There is no office in Savannah to visit, no appointment to book and no premium for being in Georgia.

Mostly the Chatham County courts and the maritime and injury practices filing in them. There is steady work too from container terminals and the freight forwarders and customs brokers clearing cargo there, and from business jet manufacturing, historic district tourism and film and television shoots. Closed captioning for those clients usually ends up in front of someone outside the organisation, which is why every file is checked against the source before it is sent.

Captioning is quoted per minute of runtime. What moves the figure is the runtime, whether the audio has to be timed from scratch and the caption standard you publish to, so the quote is built from your actual files and not from a rate card. Being in Savannah changes nothing about the rate, because the same published prices apply across Georgia and everywhere else. The rate follows the runtime of the video, not the number of caption lines the finished file contains. You get an exact total in writing before anything starts.

Urgent work is covered by rush delivery within 2 to 24 hours, depending on length and how difficult the source is. Because orders from Savannah are handled online, nothing waits on a courier, an appointment or office hours. Timing is set by hand against the audio, so the schedule follows the real runtime of the video and not an estimate. Longer jobs are split across a coordinated team working from one style sheet, so speed never costs consistency.

The 99+% accuracy standard applies to every file, and it holds because each caption file is produced by a person and then played back against the picture by a second reviewer. Local detail is where a distant supplier slips - street names in Savannah, the institutions around it, the bodies people file with across Georgia - so those are checked against the source. Anything genuinely unclear is flagged for you, never guessed at.

Yes. Everyone who touches your material signs an NDA, transfer is encrypted, and access is limited to the people assigned to the job, usually one captioner and one reviewer. A lot of what arrives from Savannah comes from the Chatham County courts and the maritime and injury practices filing in them, where the material is sensitive, so restricted access is the default. Your own agreement can be signed before the first file is sent.

SRT or VTT for web and streaming, SCC or STL for broadcast, or burned in where a platform strips subtitle files. Everything is returned by email in the format you asked for, which is why clients in Savannah never need to collect anything. Caption files are delivered to the standard of the platform you publish on, whether that is SRT, VTT, SCC or STL. The target format is confirmed before work starts, because retiming afterwards costs more than getting the specification right first.

Most of it is tied to the Chatham County courts and the maritime and injury practices filing in them. Alongside that comes material from container terminals and the freight forwarders and customs brokers clearing cargo there. Local names, street names and institution names are checked against the source, because a local name got wrong is the first thing an audience in Savannah notices. Reading speed, line length and line breaks are set to the target standard before the first file is timed.

Yes. The closed captioning requests that come up most around Savannah are Spanish, Haitian Creole, Korean and Vietnamese, and 100+ other languages are available. Every file goes to a native speaker of the language, and material that switches language partway through is kept as it was.

No visit is needed. Files are uploaded through the site, emailed, or shared from cloud storage, and the finished closed captioning comes back the same way, which is why clients well outside Savannah use the service on the same terms. The one exception is material that exists only on tape, disc or a memory card, and collection can be arranged for that.
