Abstract

ADERALDO, Marisa Ferreira  and  CHAVES, Élida Gama. Audio description and access to audiovisual culture to the empowerment of visually impaired people. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.50, pp.119-134. ISSN 0104-7043.  https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.v26.n50.119134.

Contemporary culture is especially multimodal, in the sense that, to express itself makes use of various media, such as television, radio, cell phones, computers etc. through different languages and formats. In order to make a selection of languages associated with the sense of sight, this paper highlights specific part of population, just the ones (the visually impaired people), who has no means to enjoy and access visual information as cinema, theaters, travel tours etc. A way to compensate the lack of vision, and make images accessible is through audio description, that is treated here as intersemiotic and audiovisual translation ones, once it translates visual information into verbal information (written or oral).

Keywords : Accessible Audiovisual Translation; Audio Description; Visually Impaired People; Girl with a Pearl Earring.
