Caption Colorado

Description

Caption Colorado was founded in 1991. It began with one local Denver station (KCNC-TV) for which it provided free real-time captioning service for one year for the benefit of the deaf and hard-of-hearing community in Colorado. Caption Colorado secured its first paying customer (WRC-TV in Washington, DC) one year later. It was at that time that Caption Colorado led the real-time captioning industry to a radically new low rate of $120 per hour. In the early 90's the closed captioning industry was a substantially subsidized industry with rates ranging from $400 to $1,000 per hour for real-time captioning. As a result of its competitive rate, Caption Colorado was able to secure a large portion of the growth in the industry over the next nine years and is now America's largest provider of real-time closed captioning services by a wide margin.

Caption Colorado offers "real-time" closed captioning that utilizes unique technologies coupled with the talents of highly skilled captioners who use stenographic court reporting machines to transcribe the audio on-the-fly, as the words are spoken by the broadcasters. real-time captioning is not limited to pre-scripted materials and, therefore, covers 100% of the news, weather and sports segments of a typical local news broadcast. It will cover such things as the weather and sports segments which are typically not pre-scripted, last second breaking news or changes to the scripts, ad lib conversations of the broadcasters, emergency or other live remote broadcasts by reporters in-the-field. By failing to cover items such as these, newsroom style captioning (or use of the TelePrompTer for captioning) typically results in coverage of less than 30% of a local news broadcast.
