Making entertainment and events accessible for everyone
What is Audio Description?
Audio description is a vital accessibility service that provides live or recorded narration of visual elements during performances, films, and events. Professional describers paint vivid pictures with words, describing actions, settings, costumes, and visual details that make content fully accessible to people who are blind or have low vision.
This essential service transforms visual experiences into rich, multi-sensory events that everyone can enjoy equally.
