Films accessible for people with visual impairments: How to make audio descriptions

Duration
90’

The practice of providing video products with special audio descriptions is widespread abroad, but in Ukraine only a few such films have these. During the masterclass, the experts will explain the process of creating audio descriptions (using special computer applications; adhering to the standards of audio description; editing audio tracks) and provide an opportunity to make short audio descriptions of video clips yourself.

 

Masterclass tutors:

Andriy Demchuk – PhD in technological sciences, audio describer, author and developer of an application for audio description making, multiple Special Olympics champion

Liubomyr Pokotylo – audio describer of football games at the Olimpiysky Sports Complex

Viktoria Luchka – producer of a documentary with audio description titled I See, coordinator of VisimVideo Studio, Institute for Ukrainian Studies NGO

Yulia Sachuk – expert on accessibility; coordinator of Fight for Right, an advocacy organisation for people with disabilities
