Audio description
An audio description is narration added to a video's soundtrack that describes important visual information - actions, scene changes, on-screen text - for people who are blind or have low vision.
Standard audio descriptions fit into natural pauses in the dialogue. When the pauses are too short, an extended audio description pauses the video itself to make room for the narration.
