I was on Stumble Upon over the weekend, and I found this web video called "Dance, Monkeys, Dance." It looked really cool, but it had audio. Unfortunately, it was not captioned. So I contacted James Short of harkle.com to see if there is a way to get this captioned. James then emailed Ernie Cline, the person who created the dancing monkeys, and Ernie was willing to provide the transcript to get it captioned. Within two days, it's captioned. Yippie! See what one can do by email! :)

James put it on two websites: www.harkle.com and http://dotsub.com/films/dancemonkeys. It's a feature film on harkle.com; on dotSUB.com, it will be translated into foreign languages.

After viewing "Dance, Monkeys, Dance" with captions, I now understand it's a slam poem about "monkeys," i.e. humans. I love how the writer used the perspective of the monkey and a sense of humor in the poem and combined the photos with the poem.

So if you find something interesting online and it's not captioned, contact James Short at jshort@harkle.com. :) (FYI: He will contact the producer of the online media for permission, and try to get it captioned.)
