We can help you make the difference with a range of accessible and inclusive media services.
We have built a strong reputation for providing a high-quality product and a reliable and efficient service. From script to screen, we make it easy to make your media accessible and inclusive. Broadcast or digital, no project is too large or too small.
Described Video (DV), also known as “Audio Description
(AD)”, is a service where key visual elements are
described during natural pauses in dialogue for people who are
blind or have low vision.
Our team of describers are trained in DV best practices. After
careful research, a script is written with the audience and the
producer in mind. Rich descriptions are thoughtfully crafted to
paint clear, concise and accurate pictures designed to enhance
the audience’s experience. We also offer a selection of
voices for Post Production DV to suit our client’s needs.
We work with experienced voice talent, offering both male and female voices in multiple languages. The right narrator is carefully chosen to suit individual projects.
This cost-effective option reduces turnaround time while delivering a natural-sounding voice. We offer male and female voices in multiple languages and accents.
Live Described Video (DV) expands on the traditional form of audio description with a narrator providing live description in real-time as the action unfolds. Whether it’s live theatre, sporting events, award shows, or the news, Live Described Video provides an experience for all to enjoy.
Closed Captioning (CC) is text based description of any significant sounds. It provides accurate transcription of spoken dialogue along with identification of the speaker. It also includes descriptions of music, sound effects and non-verbal communication such as sighs or hums. It is designed to flow naturally alongside an audio track and other visual elements on-screen.
CC was originally developed to make media accessible for people who are deaf or hard-of-hearing, but today, CC is used for a variety of broadcast and digital content. For example, CC can be used when audio is prohibited, or an environment is too noisy, or as a way for content creators to optimize their digital content. At LMS, we offer offline closed captioning for any of these scenarios, using pop-on and roll-up formats in English or French.
We work with you to ensure your accessibility needs are met on time and on budget.
