Audio Description
Audio description is an accommodation for blind and low-vision viewers that narrates the critical visual information in a video to provide context, clarify speakers, and articulate visual elements.
We offer standard and extended description. With the standard description service, descriptions fit into natural pauses in the video’s audio track.
With our extended service, the descriptions are not constrained to the natural pauses of a video. The extended service inserts pauses in the video to make room for descriptions, as needed.
