Summary
This Success Criterion ensures that all pre-recorded audiovisual content, like videos with sound, have extended audio descriptions. These descriptions help visually impaired individuals understand the content by detailing important visual elements during pauses in the dialogue.
Lyrics
VERSE 1:
When the video plays and moves too fast
And visual details slip right past
There’s a way to help those who can’t see
Success Criterion one point two point seven’s the key
Sometimes standard descriptions aren’t enough
When professors sketch and lectures get tough
So we pause the frame, extend the sound
Making sure no one’s left behind, access found
CHORUS:
Pause the frame, tell the story
Extended audio description in its glory
When regular pauses just won’t do
We freeze the video, describe it through
Every gesture, every chart
Extended descriptions play their part
VERSE 2:
Picture physics class, the board’s alive
With formulas drawn as concepts arrive
The professor speaks while sketching away
But blind students need another way
So between each problem that’s discussed
We pause the video, it’s a must
Describe those drawings, every line
Making visual content truly shine
CHORUS:
Pause the frame, tell the story
Extended audio description in its glory
When regular pauses just won’t do
We freeze the video, describe it through
Every gesture, every chart
Extended descriptions play their part
BRIDGE/OUTRO:****
It’s Level Triple A, the highest bar we set
But it opens doors for those we can’t forget
Toggle on or off, give viewers choice
Let extended descriptions be their voice
Through SMIL and players that support
We build a world where all can report
