My name is Aleli Alcala and I'm here to represent Universal Subtitles
We realized that
Video was fast becoming the most proliferate content on the internet. It delivers content
like education, politics, health,
and because of language barriers
or if someone was deaf or hard of hearing
they would
be excluded from participating in the world they live in
How can we ensure that each and everyone will subtitle their caption?
We looked at Wikipedia, and how the power of volunteers enabled that almost impossible tasks to happen
And so we created the tecnology that combines the power of volunteers
with the power of the internet
So that each and everyone of us can participate in making sure
that every video on the web is subtitled
and captioned
The video can live anywhere and you can pull it in to Universal Subtitles
subtitle it, and then upload it back where it lived before
There's an eight year old boy who wants so badly to share a video with his grandmother who does not
speak English
So, he subtitles the video into Spanish
So that it can then be shared with his grandmother
And that's the power of this type of technology
Our dream, our vision and our pasion is that every video on the web
is subtitled and captioned
Which would allow all of us to participate fully in the world we live in
