    Hadn’t seen this before. It’s always good to see positive views getting a public airing. It would have been better again if the video included subtitles or captions. I struggled to understand the voice of one of the characters, and of course, the whole video is inaccessible to Deaf people without captions or a transcript.

    Hey thanks for your comment! It’s great to get some critical feedback. The reason why i kept their audio is because i felt it justified the message i was bringing across. As for the subtitles, you are right. It would definitely have been more accessible. I will consider that for future videos. Thanks!

    Hi Laura – Yes, you were dead right to keep the original audio. No need to sanitise it at all at all.
