Captioning

We have contracted White Coat Captioning to provide live captions on Saturday for both tracks.

When you are in Venueless, look in the lower right corner for the CC button next to the video controls. It will enable closed captions within the video frame.

Learning the Venueless Platform

We are creating instructional videos to help you learn the platform ahead of time. We also encourage everyone to attend the kick-off social and spend some time wandering around the "venue" before Saturday.
