A11y 101: 1.2.6 Sign Language (Pre-recorded)

This week we meet our first AAA level success criterion. This put me in a pinch. I had to decide if I wanted this series to include all criteria. Alternatively, it just includes the ones needed to get conformance to current legal standards. And I’m coming out in between. I’ve decided to include only the AAA that should be covered in my opinion.

So this week we’ll look at the needs around Sign Language. We’re still discussing video, but we’re back at pre-recorded video. I will say, if you are holding a webinar, you should have a live sign language interpreter.

A11Y 101: WCAG 1.2.4 Captions (Live)

Nothing super high level this wee. Two weeks ago I mentioned how you need to have captions on your site. If you haven’t read that article yet, take a few minutes and do so.

This week we’re talking about captions in a live scenario. When we consider closed captions on a prerecorded video, we could send the video to a transcriptionist. The transcriptionist would then build our caption file. But what if you are doing a webinar or streaming?
