A Unique Sponsorship Opportunity from AudioVision

Over 13 million people in North America are missing part of the picture when it comes to "going to the movies." These people are partially or completely vision impaired. But now you can partner with AudioVision to benefit this growing number of vision-restricted consumers who can't see the screen clearly or enjoy a movie in its entirety. Video description is a post production process that adds a layer of narrative to the original soundtrack supplying the viewer with description of visual cues and context. Donating a movie underwrites the cost of this description and expands the availability of movies so entire families can view a film together.

Donate-a-Movie couldn't be easier. As a Donate-a-Movie sponsor, you select a feature film from a list of titles available for description. AudioVision's experts will create a concise narrative of the visual action in the production and weave it into the sound track so that it complements the dialogue and sound effects. The movie is then reproduced in VHS or DVD format, and a total of 25 copies would be distributed to libraries of your choice. You can serve your local community or specify libraries across the country. Your movie also would join the growing list of described titles available through the AudioVision catalogue, ensuring its ongoing availability to other libraries and consumers at an affordable cost.

Your company's role in the creation and distribution of your chosen described film will be prominently acknowledged in the opening credits of the film, on the film packaging, in AudioVision's on-line catalogue and on our web site.

Sponsors of Donate-a-Movie demonstrate their commitment to making film more accessible to a growing audience of vision-restricted viewers. Please contact your AudioVision representative for more information and a list of available feature film titles.

Our inclusive approach to description ensures your program the widest possible audience of vision-restricted viewers (13 million people in North America) plus their sighted family members, companions and friends.
