Episode 63 - The Olympics

from Talk Description to Me Hosted by Christine Malec and JJ Hunt

The Olympics are in full swing, and daily audio description coverage has never been better. This week, Christine and JJ discuss the visuals that don't necessarily make it into the prime time recap, including Olympic memes, protest signs, and slow motion gymnastics. Plus, a few description-rich stories of Olympic sportsmanship. Audio Description of NBC's prime time coverage and opening and closing ceremonies is being handled by Descriptive Video Works.
