#audiodescription — Public Fediverse posts

The problem with being a volunteer, unpaid, indie audio describer is that your enthusiasm often outstrips the time you have, and you wind up doing dumb things.

Like starting another script.

Guys, the new season of #KingOfTheHill is out on Hulu, and it has #AudioDescription !!!! I've loved this show for decades, it's pretty easy to follow without AD, but having it now just makes the experience so much more special. And it's written and voiced by humans!!!! YAY!!! #Blind

Currently writing #AudioDescription for the 2000 series "Coupling" by Steven Moffat.

Episode 4 "Inferno" has a dinner-party scene where everyone is mad at everyone else, and nobody is talking, so for about 2 minute it's all the body language of people snubbing each other while saying nothing. Marvelous to describe!

It's been a while (years even) since I updated the old website. Here's a hugely expanded curated list of useful resources and links for #AudioDescription for #museums and #art. First updated page, more to come (probably slowly).

https://brett.coulstock.id.au/audio-description-in-art-and-museums.html

⚽🎧 Audio Descriptive Commentary is available for all 104 World Cup matches, plus the opening and closing ceremonies.

Blind and low vision fans can listen through the FIFA Audio Description app, while select stadiums also offer haptic boards.

Accessibility belongs in the game from the start.

Not normally a fireworks fan, especially in-person, but I'm enjoying watching the show from NYC with #AudioDescription on NBC. It just started, so tune in now to give it a listen. Good music too, with an emphasis on tunes from 1976.

Save the date! The next Audio Description Institute will take place September 14-18, 2026.

Whether you're new to audio description or a seasoned professional, the Audio Description Institute is an opportunity to expand your knowledge, sharpen your skills, and connect with leaders and peers from across the field.

Registration opens later this month, so be sure to follow the Audio Description Project on social media for updates and additional announcements.

I'm a massive Tennis fan, and recently I watched a documentary on the life of Rafa Nadal, one of my favourite players in the game, who had to retire recently. His uncle coached him from the age of 4, till 2016, and he was one of the most injured players in the game.
This documentary was complimented by excellent audio description, which makes it possible for me as a blind person, to watch TV independently and get the most from a documentary or show. #AudioDescription

#Bllind people, check out the #FIFA “audio description” app. I missed that it exists until yesterday. It effectively gives you a radio broadcast of all the #WorldCup matches, with maybe a little more visual description than a regular radio broadcast. So it’s not exactly audio description, but super useful, especially in the US where the “radio” broad cast is just the audio from the TV. And pre/post-match they do actual audio description of what’s going on in-stadium. Only thing I don’t like about it is there’s no crowd noise in the background, so it’s way less exciting. And there’s no way to sync it with anything else, so you can’t get the usual energy of a broadcast. #Football #WorldCup #Blindness #AudioDescription
