What costs are involved in getting a movie captioned?
It costs the studio nothing! The theatre must determine if it wants exclusive rights to CCS’ captions; if it does not, the theatre only pays its portion of each patron’s ticket that uses a viewing arm! If it requires exclusive rights, then it pays CCS a fee to do the captioning. Click on Prices on the left side of any page for detailed pricing. CCS will generally caption first-run films thought to have high interest. The theatre can request a particular film and CCS will caption it (providing it is playing locally where we can test the file, and the studio grants us permission to do so and provides the spotting lists).
