Guide
Preparing multilingual captions for an international meetup
A practical guide to event preparation and live captions for attendees who speak different languages.
International meetups bring together speakers and attendees with different languages. Barotune provides live translated captions to help participants follow the discussion in a familiar language.
Start with the languages your attendees need
Confirm the spoken and caption languages. Include presentations, panel discussions and audience questions when planning the programme.
Prepare the names and terms used at your event
Share speaker names, organizations, project names and specialist terms in advance. Official spellings and presentation materials help the event team prepare.
Show attendees where to find captions
Attendees can open captions through the event QR code or link. Venue screens can also display captions when arranged for the event.
Rehearse in the actual venue
- Check the audio input
- Confirm spoken and caption languages
- Check text size on phones and venue screens
- Prepare the attendee link and joining instructions
Share your schedule, duration, languages and venue setup with Barotune to discuss a suitable caption arrangement.
