Captioning Services

Request Professional Captions

Professional captioning may be requested through the Office of Academic Innovation (OAI), the Disability Resource Center (DRC), and the Office of Information Technology (OIT), depending on the nature of your multimedia content. Please refer to the options below for details:  

  1. If you are a faculty member requesting captioning for academic course content you own that will be reused, is required for students, and is located in your MediaSpace account, please request captioning through the OAI: Caption Request Form (for Academic Content).
  2. If you are a student registered with the DRC, and you need captioning as an accommodation, or you are a faculty member, requesting captioning on behalf of a student registered with the DRC, please request captioning through the DRC: Accessible Media Transcript/Caption Request for Student Registered With DRC.
  3. If you are a pdx.edu content developer, and you are planning to share multimedia content via the public-facing pdx.edu website, please request captioning through the OIT: Caption Request for pdx.edu Multimedia.

Generate Machine Captions

You can enable machine captions in Media Space, but please note that machine captions are not fully accessible for people with disabilities. Machine captioning can be a starting point for generating accurate captions when funding for professional captioning is unavailable. If you use machine captioning, you must edit captions in Media Space to ensure accuracy. Alternatively, you may request professional captions via one of the request methods listed above.
