Audio Description & Accessibility
Audio Description & Accessibility
Media Menderz creates clear, audience-friendly Audio Description (AD) and accessibility assets for OTT, broadcast, education, and corporate content. Our goal is simple: make your title understandable and enjoyable for blind and low-vision audiences without changing the creative intent. We script, narrate, and deliver AD tracks in English and regional languages, and can package SDH/closed captions alongside AD for complete accessibility.
What we do
- AD scripting with timecodes: concise, vivid, non-interpretive description
- Voice casting & narration (neutral or brand-matched tone)
- Edit, mix, and layback of AD tracks; level & loudness alignment
- SDH/Closed Captions with non-dialogue cues and speaker IDs
- Conformance to platform & accessibility guidelines (e.g., WCAG/EBU/FCC style expectations)
- Multi-language coverage: English, Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, Sindhi, Balochi, Saraiki, Farsi
Workflow & QA
Ingest & creative brief → spotting and AD script draft → internal review for clarity/neutrality → client review → narration record → edit/mix → final linguistic & technical QC → delivery. Read rate, pauses, and screen-action priority are tuned for comfort; we avoid spoilers, overlap with dialogue, and subjective language. Remote reviews and live direction are available via Zoom.
Deliverables
- AD script with timecodes and style notes (DOCX/XLSX)
- AD audio: WAV mono/stereo, 24-bit/48 kHz; separate stem and integrated mix (layback options available)
- SDH/CC files: SRT, WebVTT, TTML/IMSC, EBU-STL (per spec)
- Change logs, pronunciation lists, and file-naming conformances
Security & handling
NDA by default, controlled studio access, and encrypted storage protect pre-release media. Confidential case studies and references are available on request.
