Congratulations to Whitehorse Pictures for multiple Emmy nominations for their Bee Gees Documentary. I’m so pleased that this film can be experienced by low vision and blind audiences with my audio description production on HBO Max. Enjoy the movie if you haven't already seen it.

A tremendous thank you to Rudy, Joan & Marc Guss of SOVAS for highlighting the importance of audio description and an equally tremendous thank you to those of you in attendance and your heartfelt enthusiasm to support inclusive audience participation!

I’m honored to have sponsored and produced the audio described version of the upcoming Hollywood Media Access Awards event in its 41st year, focused on representing disability in front of and behind the camera, and all those who support programming and filmmaking of this nature.

@RoySamuelson Very good. Will you be leading future workshops at the same studio? At which studio did your most recent workshop take place, Roy?

Beautiful and meaningful - Braille wallcovering product video that I sponsored and voiced the video description. A percentage of sales will be donated to the NFB!

Thank you everyone for your kind words of support. This film has been very well received! My audio description will also be available in UK cinemas. The forthcoming Pavarotti DVD will also include my audio description and should be available within 2 months. Bravo!

The new 'Pavarotti" Ron Howard documentary that I Audio Described is a wonderful film if you get a chance to see it.
