Plenty of people start watching with the sound off. If they can't read the captions, there's no message. This guide sets up one caption style that looks the same across all of a clinic's videos and reads comfortably on a phone. The values are starting points for a 1080×1920 canvas; fine-tune them by testing your own typeface on a phone.
