Episode 24 – Fun at the Movies with Described Video: Now that winter is here, we’re in a mood to snuggle up and watch some movies at home. It’s a good thing that so many films these days come with audio descriptions, so we can keep up with everything on the screen! In the first Digital Treasure Chest of 2025, we’re taking a look at the state of described video on streaming services like Netflix and Prime Video. Join us to learn how described video works, how to turn it on, and to discover some of our favourite movies and TV shows!
