Disability & Arts Transition Team (DATT), supported by funding from Arts SA, brings UK audio describer Willie Elliott back to Adelaide to present training for local performers, writers, theatre-makers and arts organisations.
Renowned professional audio describer Willie Elliot will run professional audio description training. Willie has extensive experience in all aspects of audio description, including theatre, opera, dance, circus, visual arts, architecture, live events, TV, film and online.
Audio Description captures the visual elements of a theatre piece; painting or environment that a blind or vision impaired person might otherwise miss, describing them in clear, vivid language. Through a small radio receiver, the patron receives a spoken description of visual elements by a trained audio describer.
