Descriptive Video Services

Descriptive Video Services (DVS) are audio descriptions provided alongside visual media such as TV shows and movies. They consist of narrated explanations that describe key visual elements—like actions, gestures, scene changes, and facial expressions—during natural pauses in the dialogue. This allows people with visual impairments to better understand and enjoy the content by providing additional context about what’s happening on screen. DVS is typically available through specialized broadcasting or streaming options and enhances accessibility, making visual storytelling more inclusive for all viewers.
