Description Service Vendors
This listing was prepared from information provided by various description-related sources and from surveys conducted by the DCMP. While the DCMP has attempted to identify all service vendors, it apologizes for any omissions. As additional service vendors are identified, they will be included in this list. Listing of a service vendor does not constitute an endorsement by the U.S. Department of Education, the National Association of the Deaf, or the DCMP.
Costs for description (sometimes called "audio description" or "video description") vary according to the length of a program, the nature of the desired service, the format, and other technical processes.
To add your company to this listing, please go to DCMP's Description Key and fill out this request form.
