doesn\u2019t seem to be slowing down anytime soon. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iab.com\/news\/livestream-video-trends-worldwide-2018\/\">More than 67% of people worldwide<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0have streamed live video content, and live streaming is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/video-streaming-market-worth-usd-7005-billion-by-2021---online-video-streaming-has-increased-viewership-60---research-and-markets-300267717.html\">estimated to grow into $70.5 billion industry<\/a> by 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like pre-recorded video content, including closed captions with live video content is best practice when it comes to making content accessible to all audiences. While captioning live video can be done in various ways, every method comes with its respective pros and cons \u2013 regardless of which method you choose, live captioning should <em>always<\/em> be as accurate as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Occasionally the accuracy of live captions depends on the streaming\/recording environment, however, when following 3Play Media&#8217;s best practices for live captioning, you can expect accuracy rates of 90% or higher. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As more people &amp; organizations turn to online platforms for live events, keep the following 7 best practices in mind to ensure high-quality live auto captions:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"btn btn-blue-blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/solutions\/how-it-works\/how-to-guides\/zoom-live-auto-captions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How to Add Live Captions to Zoom Meetings &amp; Webinars \u27a1\ufe0f<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#1: Strong network connection \ud83d\udcbb<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A strong internet connection is the first essential for any live event. Without a reliable internet connection, you risk interruptions to the live stream which can negatively impact closed captioning, create distractions, and ultimately detract from your message.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to data compiled by Vimeo Livestream, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/livestream.com\/blog\/62-must-know-stats-live-video-streaming\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">viewers have a low tolerance for spotty streams<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and will only spend 90 seconds at most before calling it quits. In order to avoid a situation like this, hosts must ensure that the internet connection is reliable.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many different factors can impact internet connectivity, including an overcrowded network, a faulty router, or bad cabling \u2013 before going live, we recommend testing your internet speed &amp; equipment to ensure you have a strong connection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When in doubt, it&#8217;s recommended to hardwire your internet connection for live streams, since WiFi can sometimes be unreliable.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>#2: High-quality audio \ud83c\udfa7<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like a bad internet connection, poor audio quality can also negatively affect your live event &amp; audience experience \u2013 that\u2019s why it\u2019s important to invest in high-quality audio equipment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Good audio primarily lies in the hands of the microphone used, as it can (literally) make or break the quality. A microphone that can clearly pick up on the sound of your voice is a worthy investment, and will ultimately help to improve the accuracy of your live captions.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many different microphones out there, but the best models for a live event are condenser, dynamic, and ribbon microphones. T<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">he particular kind you use depends on how you plan to record or live stream. When selecting a microphone, keep these questions in mind:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where will I be recording\/streaming?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What direction will the audio come from?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What frequencies will the microphone will be picking up?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-25111 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/microphones-300x107.jpg\" alt=\"Comparison of condenser, dynamic, and ribbon microphones.

The microphone should be placed in front of the speaker(s), either below or to the side of the mouth and Blue Microphones recommends leaving <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.streamlabs.com\/how-to-improve-the-sound-of-your-twitch-streams-8b7ab5561af3\">6-12 inches of space between the speaker and microphone<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>#3: Little to no background noise \ud83d\udde3\ufe0f<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To ensure good audio quality when recording live, your best bet is to find a location with little to no background noise. It&#8217;s not always easy to minimize extraneous sound, especially when the environment is not in your control. However, there are a few things you can do to reduce potential background noise.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The right equipment may do some of the work for you, as high-quality microphones typically pick up less background noise &amp; archive better sound quality. Sometimes outside noises like passing sirens &amp; people talking can&#8217;t be controlled, especially if you live in a city environment. In this case, we recommend keeping your windows and doors closed during your live event in order to reduce outside noise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you&#8217;re recording from home or an office, be sure to let others around you know that you&#8217;re recording or streaming a live event so as not to be interrupted. Otherwise, streaming in a location with no one else around would be most ideal.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#4: A single speaker \ud83c\udf99\ufe0f<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Many live event formats utilize more than one speaker \u2013 in this case, try to minimize overlapping speech.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to live captioning, it can be difficult to clearly pick up on what is being said if people are speaking over one another. It&#8217;s best to let each speaker speak one at a time to ensure accurate captions.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#5: Clear speech &amp; pronunciation \ud83d\udcac<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar to recorded video content, captions are more accurate when the host is speaking clearly and enunciating each word.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to ensure your live auto captions are as accurate as possible? Slow down &amp; pronounce each word as clearly as you can.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>#6: Include wordlists<\/strong> \u2611\ufe0f<\/h2>\n<p>Live captions typically have the ability to minimize deletion errors \u2013 where the transcript omits words because the speaker&#8217;s pace is too fast to keep up with \u2013 but still allow production of a &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/ncamftp.wgbh.org\/ncam-old-site\/file_download\/CC_Metrics_research_paper_final.pdf\">readable text<\/a>,&#8221; even if some words have been skipped. As a result, however, live captioning software may attempt to substitute the words it missed with whatever it thinks sounds correct (which is often&#8230; not correct), ultimately leading to more substitution errors or inaccurate words.<\/p>\n<p>To remedy this, 3Play Media created a unique wordlist feature to reduce the number and probability of inaccurate captions in a live stream or event. Wordlists allow users to submit a glossary of terms relevant to their business that may not be immediately understood without context in order to improve the visual accuracy of ASR.<\/p>\n<p>When users submit a wordlist for a live stream or event, ASR technology listens to detect those words in a live stream &amp; captions them exactly as given in the wordlist (including spelling and punctuation).<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#7: Upgrade to full transcription \ud83d\udca1<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As mentioned previously, you can expect an accuracy rate of 90% or higher when following 3Play&#8217;s best practices for live captioning.<\/p>\n<p>Though these practices will help, we recommend upgrading to our full transcription process post-event to achieve the highest quality possible &amp; ensure a fully compliant, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/caption-quality\/\">99% accurate recording<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>After upload, your file will undergo <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/why-3play\/3play-difference\/\">our full captioning process<\/a>, beginning with the live auto-transcript. Our team of editors will then review the ASR transcript, correct any errors, and push it forward for another round of quality assurance.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3Play&#8217;s Live Captioning\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-20409 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-300x266.png\" alt=\"video camera\" width=\"169\" height=\"149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-300x266.png 300w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-600x532.png 600w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-768x681.png 768w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-1536x1361.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-1400x1241.png 1400w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-585x518.png 585w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-790x700.png 790w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-169x150.png 169w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-85x75.png 85w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196-174x154.png 174w, https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shutterstock_435273196.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At 3Play Media, our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/solutions\/services\/livecaptioning\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">live captioning solution<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> allows you to schedule automatic captions for live streaming events.
