What is Video Description?
Video description is an auditory depiction of a television or video program’s visual elements for persons who are blind or visually impaired. Video description is inserted in the natural pauses of a program’s dialogue, and may be used to describe visual elements such as body language, settings, and actions. In order to receive video description, an audience member must have a stereo television or VCR that is capable of receiving the Second Audio Program (SAP) “channel.” The SAP feature is available on most new TVs and VCRs, and consumers may also purchase receivers for converting TV sets to stereo with SAP.
