What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps production teams create accurate, readable, and accessible captions and media deliverables instead of relying on unreviewed transcripts, incomplete subtitles, or inaccessible burned-in text.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Caption and Subtitle Direction: Classify captions, subtitles, SDH, transcripts, descriptive transcripts, and audio-description deliverables for the intended audience and platform.
- Production Accessibility: Apply guidance for timing, line breaks, speaker identification, non-speech audio, burned-in caption design, safe areas, flashing, motion, and visual descriptions.
- Deterministic Validation: Validate SRT and WebVTT structure, UTF-8 encoding, timestamps, cue ordering, overlaps, line limits, and reading-speed warnings with the bundled validator.
- Localization and QA: Prepare localization handoffs and review final media against platform requirements, accessibility risks, visual placement, and final audio-picture changes.
- Use Case: For a generated product demo, create a complete sidecar caption file from the final audio, retain a social-friendly burned-in version, add integrated visual descriptions, and run structural checks before upload.
Quick Start
Use the captions-media-accessibility skill to prepare and validate accessible captions, a descriptive transcript, and a localization handoff for the attached final video.
