Dec, Jordy and Caio listen to an all-ages music set beside a small empty stage.
A night off with Dec and Caio. We checked the plan, found each other and let the group chat rest for once.

“Cool idea. Can everyone actually take part?”

Jordy left a note

If our update gets attention but people still have the wrong information, the numbers are not telling us what we need.
What makes a good caption?

Getting the words right is the start. Timing matters. So does knowing who is speaking. If the important information only arrives through sound, part of the audience is being left behind.

A take I’m rethinking

First thoughtThe post did well. Look at the views.

What I’m asking nowDid people understand the correction? Did it reach the people who saw the mistake?

That question matters in the case. Hear the other perspectives, look at the material and decide what you can explain.

A question to bring with you

What would you need to hear or see before agreeing with Jordy? Keep one thing you know separate from one thing you are assuming.

About me

Jordy is Black, nonbinary and hard of hearing. They wear hearing aids, study part time and work event shifts with Gia. They edit the crew’s films and check the cut with the people in them. Good captions matter; so does being included in the conversation before anyone presses record.
