Audio Description - Have you heard of it?


...How can we give a person who is visually impaired the experience and enjoyment of the movie/television show?

We can add audio descriptions which is basically a narration of what is happening in a movie / television show. Audio Descriptions are delivered where there is a gap between the dialogues.

The Royal National Institute of Blind People, UK, conducted a research report - "Bollywood for all: an RNIB project on demand for audio described Bollywood films in cinema and on DVD"

Watch a great audio-visual which simulates the need for audio description



When will we be able to have this experience for the visually impaired people of India?
