Subtitles for people who are deaf or hard of hearing

As stated in the overall introduction to the guidelines, these recommendations are largely the result of a compilation and restructuring of information contained in existing resources. The key resources used for this section were:

• ITC guidelines on standards for subtitling
• BBC online subtitling editorial guidelines v1.1
• Captioning key website
• The outputs of the dtv4all project
• Peter Olaf looms’three part series on access services for the ebu technicalreview

These and other subtitling resources are referenced in the bibliography.
