My excitement discovering that #hoopla has a lot of British content was dashed when I learned that it has no #AudioDescription. For a public service provided by libraries #a11y is not optional.

I learnt a lot working on this piece with my colleagues from the #AudioDescription Past, Present & Futures project.

#blindSaw the "Coyote vs Acme" Thursday night.
The audio descriptions were awful.
The movie was good.
I wouldn't pay to see it again in a theater, because I want to be able to pause it so I can read the things that were glossed over by the descriptions.
I'm sure the subpar audio descriptions were due to how the movie actually got released. And they aren't worthless. But I'm hoping they can be improved before it becomes available for streaming or DVD.

Some of the TV documentaries produced with audio description are first class. I'm watching one now about José Mourinho, it is really well produced. #AudioDescription.

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).

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.

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
