It is a small example of how a film can have some background information into sets, costumes, character appearance outwith the description that the film would have in a cinema. For example, the costumes in a film like Braveheart are quite intricate (different tartans etc) and there is not really enough time to describe them during the running of the film without detracting from the character's dialogue. So, what I propose is a web site (or CD) containing that information before going to see the film. I used RealOne and SMIL for the audio described trailer. Also, I would like to think that the possibilities for such a web site apply to other facets of the media (tv, theatre etc) so it is really an initial study into whether such a format would be well received. What I really need your help for here is testing the site. It is up and running at this address: http://www12.brinkster.com/webdeb/audiodescribed/index.html All the media files are there as is some more background info and the test questionnaire. Thank you all for your time!! Debbie ------------------------ Yahoo!
