We are very, very excited to announce that @CriticalRole is taking up the mantle of closed captions for their flagship show. There's no way we can thank properly all of the volunteers that have helped us create a more inclusive community for the past 3 years. We love you. <3
An update on @CRTranscript & Closed Captions for Critical Role: https://t.co/ws8zCCcxAK
And we'd like to extend a monolithic THANK YOU to the many volunteers who have helped grow the community and shape CR Transcript over the years!
For people going to watch the premiere of Critical Role Campaign 3 in theaters captions will be available on individual devices. Major props to our caption team for putting in extra effort to turn around captions on an extra-short timeline!
In case you missed our announcement live…

AS A REMINDER, while #CriticalRole is being pre-recorded, the Monday YouTube VOD launches with complete, edited captions! Here's the latest ep, Welcome to Cognouza. Check the video description for more info! #closedcaptions#accessibility#dnd https://t.co/qFBykt92Eb
@catchantwatts@CriticalRole Yes, @CriticalRole hires out closed captions now, but up until C2E53 the captions were done by amazing, fantastic, talented critter volunteers who were passionate about making sure EVERYONE could enjoy the show. <3
Tonight's YouTube and Twitch livestreams are fully closed captioned! Pandemic perecording and quick work by the @CriticalRole CC team made it happen. Until the return of live broadcasts, this will be the goal! #CriticalRole#accessibility#dnd#closedcaptions
Because of some technical glitches, the edited closed captions for C2E106 won't be available with the episode YouTube upload later today. The #CriticalRole CC editing team is working hard to get them ready as soon as possible. #closedcaptions#accessibility#dnd
As @CriticalRole returns this week (yay!) I've made a searchable transcript archive for all of campaigns 1&2! Wanna see exactly when @LauraBaileyVO mentions cinnamon pastries, or @VoiceOfOBrien says "diplomatic immunity"?

@shandravdeg@sil@CriticalRole@LauraBaileyVO@VoiceOfOBrien@CritRoleStats@SurenaXMarie Hi Shandra - unfortunately no. It's a singular error and not something we can revise an entire file for. Examples of what we'd consider changing are focused on the efficacy of the captions: major timesetting errors, bad caption placement, garbled characters, etc.
@sil@shandravdeg@CriticalRole@LauraBaileyVO@VoiceOfOBrien@CritRoleStats@SurenaXMarie With the sheer amount of content (700+ hours) volunteers created and our small team edited, there are bound to be mistakes. The captioning process is very laborious so unfortunately we don't change files for small errors. Perhaps there's a way to mark a misspelling in your tool?
UPDATE: @CriticalRole has now captioned all existing episodes of campaigns 1 & 2, up to campaign 2, episode 99! The captioning and editing process continues to be refined as they go, and they're continually looking for ways to reduce turnaround time. #CriticalRole#accessibility
@YoursDearlyEve As of right now the other content that's captioned by Critical Role are: Mini Primetime & UnDeadwood; one-shots with edited CC are: Crash Pandas, Darrington Brigade, Doom, Cinderbrush, Search for Bob, the Colbert Red Nose Day special, and Dalen's Closet.
