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

00:00:25.007 --> 00:00:26.632
We realized that

00:00:26.632 --> 00:00:33.971
Video was fast becoming the most proliferate content on the internet. It delivers content

00:00:33.971 --> 00:00:36.674
like education, politics, health,

00:00:36.674 --> 00:00:38.847
and because of language barriers

00:00:38.847 --> 00:00:41.123
or if someone was deaf or hard of hearing

00:00:41.123 --> 00:00:41.633
they would

00:00:41.633 --> 00:00:44.977
be excluded from participating in the world they live in

00:00:44.977 --> 00:00:48.971
How can we ensure that each and everyone will subtitle their caption?

00:00:48.971 --> 00:00:57.641
We looked at Wikipedia, and how the power of volunteers enabled that almost impossible tasks to happen

00:00:57.641 --> 00:01:02.396
And so we created the tecnology that combines the power of volunteers

00:01:02.396 --> 00:01:04.940
with the power of the internet

00:01:04.940 --> 00:01:08.486
So that each and everyone of us can participate in making sure

00:01:08.486 --> 00:01:11.238
that every video on the web is subtitled

00:01:11.238 --> 00:01:12.887
and captioned

00:01:12.887 --> 00:01:17.624
The video can live anywhere and you can pull it in to Universal Subtitles

00:01:17.624 --> 00:01:22.454
subtitle it, and then upload it back where it lived before

00:01:22.454 --> 00:01:30.302
There's an eight year old boy who wants so badly to share a video with his grandmother who does not

00:01:30.302 --> 00:01:31.556
speak English

00:01:31.556 --> 00:01:36.138
So, he subtitles the video into Spanish

00:01:36.138 --> 00:01:39.016
So that it can then be shared with his grandmother

00:01:39.016 --> 00:01:43.437
And that's the power of this type of technology

00:01:43.437 --> 00:01:49.109
Our dream, our vision and our pasion is that every video on the web

00:01:49.109 --> 00:01:51.569
is subtitled and captioned

00:01:51.569 --> 00:01:56.216
Which would allow all of us to participate fully in the world we live in
