> For the last 8 years the staff has been discussing close captioning for
> video (they run under 5 to 10 minutes) in our galleries, and for a much
> longer, orientation film (about 28 minutes) on the life of Richard Nixon
> that we show in our main auditorium.  In the past, we were hesitant to do
> the necessary work due to expense.  We think that perhaps with better
> technology and friendlier systems, we might be able to fulfill the need
> for close captioning in our gallery videos, and reflective captioning in
> the main auditorium, so we are taking a third look at options for
> software, equipment, and tackling this with a consultant or freelancer.

> Have any of you out there worked on a such a project; what were the
> pitfalls, what was learned, and who would you recommend for this (I've
> done a lot of online research so I'm becoming familiar with the
> terminology and setup).

> Thanks a bunch!  You may reply on-list or off.
