Captioning Styles

Captioning styles refer to the ways captions are presented to enhance viewing experience and accessibility. Different styles include closed captions, which viewers can toggle on or off; open captions, permanently visible on the screen; and graphical captions, integrated into the visual design for specific effects. Styles may also vary in their placement, font type, size, and color to improve readability and match content tone. The choice of style depends on the content, audience needs, and platform, ensuring viewers can understand dialogue, sound effects, and context regardless of hearing ability or viewing environment.
