Accessible video and mobile media

For whom?

The course is aimed at those who produce video and those who are clients where the content is to be published on the web or in social media.

To get the most out of this course, we recommend that you first take the course Introduction to accessibility. If you work with the web or intranets, we also recommend that you take the subject course Publishing accessibility on the web to deepen your knowledge and reach more people with your message.

About the course

We will go through the different parts of an accessible video, look at the legal requirement and go through the parts of the WCAG guidelines that are relevant for videos.

Different tools for creating a video will not be covered. The course aims to enhance your understanding and give you advice so that you know what needs to be done to make videos accessible.

Course content

The course covers, among other things:

• Subtitling (subtitles and captions).
• Verbalisation and audio description.
• Film description
• Techniques for creating an accessible video.
