Summary
This Success Criterion suggests ways to make prerecorded videos more accessible for visually impaired people. One way is by adding audio descriptions to the video. Another way is to provide all visual and auditory information in text form. Links or functions are also included for equal access. These improvements will help those who have trouble understanding moving images.
Lyrics
VERSE 1:
Picture this: a video plays on your screen
Actions unfold in every scene
But what if you can’t see what’s there?
Success criterion one point two point three says we care
Audio description fills the gaps between
Painting pictures of what can’t be seen
Or give a full text script that reads like a book
Making sure that everyone can take a look
CHORUS:
Every scene deserves a voice, every moment needs a sound
When the visuals tell a story, let descriptions come around
Whether pauses hold the narration or a screenplay tells it all
One point two point three ensures nobody hits a wall
VERSE 2:
Characters enter, the scene transforms
Laughter echoes, a new day dawns
These details matter, they shape the tale
Without description, the story fails
Choose your path: add voice between the lines
Or write it out with full designs
Interactive links? Include them too
Equal access for me and you
CHORUS:
Every scene deserves a voice, every moment needs a sound
When the visuals tell a story, let descriptions come around
Whether pauses hold the narration or a screenplay tells it all
One point two point three ensures nobody hits a wall
BRIDGE/OUTRO:****
From training videos to movie screens
Everyone should share these scenes
SMIL templates and tools abound
To help us bridge the sight and sound
Remember one point two point three
Videos for all to see
Sound Influences
lullaby, marimba, soft female vocal, wood block, harp, gentle
