A description that fits the gap.

As first written

The camera pans slowly across a very large room containing many tall bookshelves.

As written for the ear

A vast library, floor to ceiling in shelves.

Illustrative example written for this page, not client work. Descriptions must fit the pauses between dialogue, so they are short and precise.

How a project runs.

  1. Send what you have

    The video, a transcript or dialogue list and the standards you must follow.

  2. Cast and adapt

    We write a description script that fits the gaps in the dialogue.

  3. Voice and review

    A producer directs a neutral, clear delivery, and a native speaker checks the script and audio.

  4. Delivery

    A description track and the script, per language.

Languages and accents.

Descriptions are written for each language, not translated, because what needs saying differs between cultures. Every language and accent is on the languages page.

Questions before you start.

Does this meet accessibility regulations?

We follow the guidelines you give us. Whether a track meets the rules in your market is for your accessibility lead to confirm.

Can you describe from the final cut only?

Yes. Description needs the locked picture.

Do you provide extended description?

Yes, where the platform allows pauses in playback.
