"El Colombiano de Keko" tells the story of Andrés Ballesteros, tired of his solitary life, who embarks on a trip to Tanzania in search of love. What seemed like an opportunity to find happiness quickly turns into a nightmare when he is unjustly accused of drug trafficking simply because he is Colombian. Andres is imprisoned in one of the most dangerous prisons in the country, facing brutal confinement for eight long years. Without losing hope, his brother begins a tireless fight to free him.
In audiovisual production, inclusion and accessibility are essential to reaching a wider audience. This is one of the reasons why the closed caption service has become indispensable, especially in high-impact series. ATmedios was responsible for implementing this service in the series, ensuring everyone, including those with hearing difficulties, could enjoy this exciting story. But it's not just an inclusive tool; it also improves any viewer's experience in situations where sound cannot be adequately heard, such as in noisy environments or while viewing content in public spaces. It is also useful for people whose first language is not the original language of the content and who are not 100% bilingual.
Why is closed caption crucial?
Closed captioning doesn't just transcribe dialogue. This service incorporates descriptions of ambient sounds, changes in voice tone, or musical effects that influence the plot. For example, in the series, every sound from the prison scenes, the tense whispers, or the vibrant music accompanying the emotions is captured and depicted accurately so that nothing is lost in the viewer's experience.
This enriches the experience for people with hearing impairments and makes content more accessible and easier to follow for anyone who prefers to watch the series without sound.
ATmedios ensures that, throughout the eight available episodes, the closed caption is a complement that facilitates understanding and not just a reproduction of the script. In this series, where tension and emotion are key, the accuracy and detail in the subtitles make all the difference.
