ICS is incredible. Their attention to detail and overall intentionality is so important in spaces where accessibility is possible! This was my first time hiring an interpreter team for a live comedy show and ICS really worked with me. They also were patient with me as I asked many questions about this sort of service. Overall, I'm just so grateful that I found ICS.

ICS has been instrumental to our postproduction video process for my work with DRNY's disability advocacy podcast, "Empire State of Rights." The request process is easy, dependable, and has made our podcast more accessible for our audience. ICS is also a fundamental resource for consultations regarding in-person and media-related accessibility services. I highly recommend them.

The owner is wonderful to work with, very deaf-centric and the goal is consistent with providing best access for dhh community. I visited NYC as an outsider and was blown away with how accessible the Time Square NYE celebration were. They had a LIVE interpreter on their streaming and in-person at the Time Square. I'll work with this agency again!

Many thanks to the ASL Interpreters who provided such a professional service at our MLK Event in Ridgewood NJ on January 15th 2024. Our event went longer than expected, and we were not able to have much of the program ahead of time but it didn't ruffle them at all. Thanks so much, again, for such a high quality, professional experience!

I came across Inclusive Communication Services in needing translation services for a student event. The interpreter provided for our event provided Urdu translations to a small group of students where students were able to learn about postsecondary access. The process in seeking this support was very smooth and informative providing me with immediate responses to my questions. If you are seeking for translation supports (live interpreters or documents needing translations) in languages such as Spanish, French, Ukrainian, Arabic, Russian, Chinese and many more, please consider Inclusive Communication Services!

There is no one I would've rather work with. An extremely kind and hard working group of people. I asked them if there was a chance for them to translate my short film script into ASL, and they did it with no problem. They stuck to their schedule and always let me know if there were any changes. They are very professional and the result is better than I would've ever expected. This project would've not been possible without you! Once again, thank you, I don't think I'll ever be able to thank you properly for the work you did for me. You are a great group, anyone who gets a chance to work with them should consider themselves lucky.

ICS is amazing! We use their ASL interpreting services in our virtual meetings for the National Human Trafficking and Disabilities Working Group (NHTDWG). Working with ICS from start to finish is a breeze, and the interpreters are professional friendly, and familiar with the virtual technology. They also spend time prior to the meeting becoming familiar with commonly used acronyms and jargon to be sure they're communicating effectively. Being inclusive should be standard everywhere, and ICS makes it easy to do so. We love their work!

As a Capture Manager for a federal contractor, I identified Inclusive ASL as a potential partner for a bid opportunity. Although the government eventually designated the opportunity for small businesses only, my interactions with Inclusive ASL, and specifically with Shelby, their CEO, were highly enlightening and constructive. Her expertise and guidance were instrumental during the capture process. I recommend Inclusive ASL for their professionalism and look forward to the possibility of future collaborations.

September 2023 was the first time we contacted Inclusive Communication Services (ICS) and utilized their services. Throughout the journey from initial contact through delivering ASL service, we clearly and fully experienced the ICS commitment to ethical, individualized, and affordable inclusion. The folk who received the service were impressed and expressed their comfort and delight with the quality of service. We were asked how we discovered ICS and the simple answer was that it was through a google search. We now want to express our satisfaction and appreciation through the same medium. To the ICS team, Thank You!

I had an outstanding experience with ICS and highly recommend their services to anyone in need of an ASL interpreter for an event. From the initial request to the event day itself, the entire process was easy, efficient, and marked by excellent customer service. When I reached out to ICS to request an ASL interpreter for a wedding, I was met with a team of coordinators who were not only responsive but also incredibly friendly. They made the entire planning process a breeze and were so easy to work with. What truly set them apart was their attention to the small details that made a significant difference for me as a deaf bridesmaid in a hearing wedding. I was impressed by ICS's flexibility. They accommodated last-minute changes to the wedding day timeline, which I genuinely appreciated. The ASL interpreter provided by ICS was not only professional but also incredibly sweet. Their presence seamlessly integrated sign language into the flow of the wedding, and many of the wedding guests commented on how well it worked. What truly stood out for me was ICS's commitment to their clients. They didn't consider their job done once the event was over - they followed up to ensure that the big day went well for the bride and groom. I have no doubt that I will be requesting ICS's services again in the future. If you are in need of ASL interpretation services, ICS should be your go-to choice!

Shakespeare Meets ICS

Our experience collaborating with Inclusive Communication Services (ICS) for the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival (HVSF) was nothing short of exceptional. Right from our initial contact, ICS exhibited a remarkable commitment to accommodating our needs and ensuring that an American Sign Language (ASL) interpreted performance was accessible to our guests. Their adept handling of logistics was both organized and efficient. Jared and Mark, the interpreters, delivered an outstanding service marked by their positive attitudes, adaptability, and seamless teamwork. Their involvement was instrumental in the success of our first ASL accessible performance. They actively engaged with our audience, including young ASL learners, and shared invaluable insights. Attendees were effusive in their praise of their work, and we wholeheartedly recommend requesting their services for future productions. The dedication of Inclusive Communication Services to making the arts inclusive is truly commendable, and we cannot express enough gratitude for their significant contributions to our theater experience.

Recently, as a cast member, it was a beautiful experience to have myself and the rest of the cast, and speakers voiced by Sarah & Avery during a live production produced by The Anthropologists. They were kind, patient, prepared, and were able to pick up and perfectly sign the performance and talkback/interview for the audience. This is the second or third time I’ve had the pleasure of being voiced by or seen interpreters from Inclusive Communications Services. Every time, the interpreters come with the same warm and professional presence. Regardless of if you know or not if an attendee will need ASL, I encourage you to hire them. Being able to see ASL during the talkback was a positive, refreshing, and inclusive experience. As a performer I was honored and happy that a production I was part of can be enjoyed by a wider audience. Please reach out to Inclusive Communications Services so that you can have interpreters at your event; you’ll be proud that your content is accessible and inclusive for a wider audience to enjoy.

What is Accessible Media
Sign Language Translation?

Sign language translation of media content and documents is a dynamic process that involves converting spoken or written content into recorded sign language, enabling effective communication with Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals. In this process, skilled sign language interpreters capture the spoken or written message and express it in sign language, conveying the intended meaning and nuances. The translation can be presented through various methods, such as picture-in-picture sign language translation, where the sign language interpreter appears in a small window on the screen while the main content continues, or in-screen sign language translation, where the interpreter is integrated into the main video frame. This approach ensures that sign language users can access information simultaneously with the visual content, promoting inclusivity and equal access to vital information.

Icon - White Number - 1
Review the Original Content and Service Requirements
  • Your project manager will review and assess the source materials’ length, content, language, and clarity to determine your translation needs.
  • Your project manager will meet with you to discuss your preferences for recording, including the following specifications:
    • Background color (black, blue, white, chroma green, gray, and more)
    • Signing talent attributes (Deaf or hearing, gender, ethnicity, religious affiliation, and more)
    • On-screen attire,
    • Lighting,
    • Camera resolution,
    • Recording speed (FPS), and
    • Framing
  • Your project manager will work to understand your desired target sign language(s) and the intended audience to ensure accurate and culturally appropriate translation.
Icon White Number 2 e1697149048523
Translate and Rehearse the Source Material Translation
After your project manager assigns experienced sign language translators according to your requirements, the sign language translators will meticulously translate the source material and rehearse the content in preparation for recording. For more complicated subject matters, certified Deaf Interpreters (CDI’s) will be incorporated into the pre-production translation process to ensure optimal accuracy, clarity, and completeness of the source content.
Icon - White Number - 3
Record the Target Translation
Our professional recording team will set up our private studio tailored to your background, lighting, and other recording preferences. The selected sign language translator will then perform the sign language translation on camera, capturing the essence and meaning of the original content. Depending on the length of the source material, the recording sessions may span multiple days or shoots to ensure quality and accuracy.
Icon White Number 4 e1697149764331
Post-Production Editing and Embedding (Optional)
If requested, our skilled post-production team will edit and seamlessly embed the target translation into your source material in a picture-in-picture, in-frame, or side-by-side format. The aim is to create a polished, cohesive video or audio product that effectively conveys the translated content alongside the source content.
Icon - White Number - 5
Quality Assurance
To ensure the highest quality, a separate, professional sign language interpreter will conduct a comprehensive review of the target translation, focusing on accuracy, clarity, and completeness of the message. Your project manager will also verify that all your requirements have been met by the recording and post-production teams, addressing any potential concerns or performing any required revisions. If necessary, additional post-production edits or re-shoots will be conducted to address any quality assurance considerations. If requested, a third-party quality assurance review by an external agency can be performed for an additional fee.
