Audio Description
Describing What is On-Screen
Audio descriptions are intended to provide blind and visually-impaired users with additional information as to what may be happening on-screen. For instance, a video presentation may include identified speakers or on-screen instructions. If this information is not communicated through the regular audio track, then it is necessary to include this information as an audio description, including directional cues and other on-screen information.
The clip below is from Disney's Frozen. Audio description is provided, making this feature accessible to a wider audience.
For more information about how to approach audio descriptions, please enroll in our free Video Captioning Course. More information will be provided at the end of the course.
