UK-based Zille Media has launched a new solution designed to elevate accessibility standards in the media industry.
The Audio Description Editor is a response to growing client demands and anticipates the implementation of more rigorous accessibility regulations in the UK, US, and Europe, said the company.
The company has worked with Motion Picture Solutions (MPS) on the development of the solution, which sits in the cloud-native Zille Platform, and also accompanies the existing Zille Subtitle Editor.
Idunn Sofie Riise, co-founder and managing director at Zille Media, commented: “We are thrilled to introduce the Zille Audio Description Editor to the market, fulfilling the needs of our clients and addressing the evolving landscape of accessibility requirements. The collaboration with MPS has been invaluable, and we are very grateful indeed for their dedication and time throughout the development journey.”
Stephane Zamparo, head of subtitling and accessibility services at MPS, added: “It’s been wonderful to be working with an innovative company such as Zille Media, one who believes as strongly as we do in making all media accessible to everybody.
“MPS scripts and records hundreds of hours of AD for both films and trailers each year. We are always looking for technological enhancements to support our customers get their films in front of as many people as possible.”
