| Abstract [eng] |
The audio description service in Lithuania is still relatively new phenomenon. Although there are general guidelines for audio description valid worldwide, it is undeniable that the specificities of audio description also depend on the language or culture of a particular nation. To maximise audience satisfaction with audiovisual content tailored to their needs, research is being carried out to discover the experiences and needs of blind and partially sighted people regarding access to cinema, theatre, and other cultural content. This article aims to internationally present one of these studies conducted in Lithuania. |
