Abstract: Many organisations spend a lot of money trying to streamline caption and subtitling workflows. This paper looks at the use of BPMN (Business Process Model & Notation) in an automated workflow controller to simplify the movement and migration of captions between media files and proprietary authoring formats. It focusses on multi-language workflows using IMF to describe versions. It will include a brief overview of BPMN, IMF and captioning formats, illustrated with some real life examples. It will conclude with a prediction of how far away the panacea of a truly automated captions workflow might be.
