WHY ADD LIVE CAPTIONS?

Today’s events are expected to be inclusive and accessible.

Live on-screen captions help:

  • Support attendees who are deaf or hard of hearing

  • Improve clarity in large rooms

  • Assist non-native English speakers

  • Reinforce spoken content for all audiences

  • Align with evolving university accessibility expectations

Providing captions is a simple, visible way to demonstrate your commitment to inclusive event experiences.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Request Caption Services for Your Event

Request captioning when booking your AV services.

2. We Handle the Integration

The caption system integrates directly with McNamara’s AV setup and projection workflow.

3. Captions Appear Live

As speakers talk, captions display instantly beneath your presentation.

No external fees. No hourly labor. No external booking logistics.

  • Captions appear live on the projection screens

  • Positioned neatly beneath your presentation content — never covering slides, videos, or speaker visuals.

  • Choose a template option or have us build a clean custom design, ensuring a polished and intentional look.

  • No extra screens.

  • No distractions.

  • Just clear communication for everyone in the room.
