My name is Aleli Alcala and I'm here to represent Universal Subtitles

00:00:24.615 --> 00:00:26.065
We realized that

00:00:26.065 --> 00:00:33.960
Video was fast becoming the most proliferate content on the internet. It delivers content

00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:36.206
like education, politics, health,

00:00:36.206 --> 00:00:38.373
and because of language barriers

00:00:38.373 --> 00:00:40.607
or if someone was deaf or hard of hearing

00:00:40.607 --> 00:00:44.196
They would be excluded from participating in the world they live in

00:00:44.196 --> 00:00:48.782
How can we ensure that each and everyone will subtitle their caption?

00:00:48.782 --> 00:00:57.344
We looked at Wikipedia, and how the power of volunteers enabled that almost impossible tasks to happen

00:00:57.344 --> 00:01:02.488
And so we created the technology that combines the power of volunteers

00:01:02.488 --> 00:01:04.229
with the power of the internet

00:01:04.229 --> 00:01:08.571
So that each and everyone of us can participate in making sure

00:01:08.571 --> 00:01:11.117
that every video on the web is subtitled

00:01:11.117 --> 00:01:12.304
and captioned

00:01:12.304 --> 00:01:17.216
The video can live anywhere and you can pull it in to Universal Subtitles

00:01:17.216 --> 00:01:22.199
subtitle it, and then upload it back where it lived before

00:01:22.199 --> 00:01:30.981
There's an eight year old little boy who wants so badly to share a video with his grandmother who does not speak English

00:01:30.981 --> 00:01:35.204
So, he subtitles the video into Spanish

00:01:35.204 --> 00:01:39.083
So that it can then be shared with his grandmother

00:01:39.083 --> 00:01:43.218
And that's the power of this type of technology

00:01:43.218 --> 00:01:48.879
Our dream, our vision and our passion is that every video on the web

00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:51.152
is subtitled and captioned

00:01:51.152 --> 00:01:56.498
Which would allow all of us to participate fully in the world we live in
