All,
Where is a good starting point to learn Video capturing? Such as:
1. Site that lists players that support close capturing?
2. The standards surrounding close capturing??
3. Tools used to create close capturing?
4. Resources that explain the close capturing Technologies.
5. Which tools are accessible to screen readers, low vision, etc.
I am really starting at ground zero here. I understand the high concepts only. So any good resources are welcomed.

Note to all:
I've included a range of resources in here; those of you already
familiar with this area might be less aware of the comparisons I've
included and could find those valuable.
Sean, I selected resources to offer you a range of the sites with
information; in other words, there's often a lot more on each site than
the link I've provided. My point is to "help you learn to fish" for
yourself.
I hope many besides Sean will find this response valuable; it took a
fair bit of time to pull together.
Sean,
I'll leave your message partially in tact and try to give you a starting
point for most of the questions.
It's not capturing, though; I believe you're talking about captioning.
That is unless you're talking about capturing content, such as via
screen casts.
I'll assume you mean captioning.
WebAIM, itself, is always a good place to start:
http://webaim.org/techniques/captions/
Additional responses inline, beginning with JS
Generally, however, I'd encourage you to take a good look around the
3Play Media site. While that company is a vendor, they do a commendable
job of offering free seminars and quite a bit of free content to help
folks get started.
Here's a fairly randomly chosen place to start:
http://www.3playmedia.com/2014/01/10/future-accessibility-video-captions-according-google-youtube/
<snip>
1. Site that lists players that support close capturing?
JS: Try this:
http://www.webaxe.org/accessible-html5-media-players-and-more/
Here are three comparisons:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QJVcXx5hTWYBcJbHJD3DrL3hSFVbfy1VQFyADMtrDFY/edit?pli=1#gid=0
and

> 2. The standards surrounding close capturing??
JS: Well, WCAG 2.0 has guidelines about closed captioning. But if you
want more, I imagine this might help. But some of what'd be involved
will be dependent upon the platform.
The WCAG references are easy enough to find, so here's a link to another
WAI project that may be less known to some on the list:
http://www.w3.org/TR/media-accessibility-reqs/
Here's a generally helpful collection of information:
http://www.iheni.com/accessible-media-player-resources/
Note, too, the BBC's guidelines..
They are here:

JS: I'll leave this to others. There are a lot of dependencies here,
i.e. what platform you're using to create and what platform you'll be
using to post.
> 4. Resources that explain the close capturing Technologies.
JS: This question is a bit vague for me to try to spend time guessing.
Again, there are platform dependencies, browser dependencies, Flash,
HTML5, mobile or not, etc. Once you learn more, maybe you can come back
to the list and be more specific.
> 5. Which tools are accessible to screen readers, low vision, etc.
JS: Perhaps a better place for this question would be on the BATS list;
maybe you could gather info from there, put together an article for that
site, and post the link to it back here.

Your wonderful and thanks for spending the time to pull the resources together. No wonder I was not getting the right information. Captioning was what I was referring too.
