Dicapta's Accessible Narration Training: Empowering Visually Impaired Narrators
Dicapta recently hosted a pioneering training session in audio description narration, catering to six participants with visual disabilities. Using the accessible narration module of our proprietary audio description platform, the session aimed to empower participants and enhance their professional skills.
There's an increasing call for greater inclusion of people with visual disabilities in services tailored to their needs, and accessibility lies at the heart of this endeavor. Echoing Dr. Corinne Vinopol's statement, "Accessibility creates ability," accessibility is pivotal in fostering inclusivity in the production of audio description services.
Accompanying the platform training was a session led by Oscar Cuesta, a veteran with 40 years of experience in voiceover. Despite varying levels of knowledge among participants, Cuesta's insights on advanced voiceover techniques were met with enthusiasm and appreciation. We take pride in providing an accessible platform that serves as a catalyst for individuals keen on honing their voiceover skills.
We applaud and thank Lucy Arguijo, Carlos Martinez Jr., Gabriel Lopez Kafati, Andrea Herrera, María Fernanda Saavedra, José Miguel Derisan, and Shalmarie Arroyo for participating in this initiative. We will continue supporting, tracking, and encouraging their growth and expertise in audio description narration. We will look to increase the pool of audio description narrators with visual disabilities using accessible tools for equitable professional environments.
Dicapta is committed to revolutionizing audio description narration through accessibility and empowerment.
