This state-of-the-art volume covers recent developments in research
on audio description, the professional practice dedicated to making
audiovisual products, artistic artefacts and performances
accessible to those with supplementary visual and cognitive needs.
Harnessing the power of the spoken word, the projects covered in
this book illustrate the value of audiovisual content descriptions
not only in relation to the role of breaking down physical,
cognitive and emotional barriers to entertainment, but also in
informing broader media practices such as video archive retrieval,
video gaming development and application software creation. The
first section maps out the field, discusses key concepts in
relation to new developments and illustrates their application; the
second part focuses on new audiences for AD, whilst the third part
covers the impact of new technologies. Throughout this book
contributors focus on methodological innovation, regarding audio
description as an opportunity to engage in multi-dimensional
linguistic and user-experience analysis, as it intersects with and
contributes to a range of other research disciplines. This book is
key reading for researchers, advanced students and practitioners of
audiovisual translation, media, film and performance studies, as
well as those in related fields including cognition, narratology,
computer vision and artificial intelligence.
