American Council of the Blind Audio Description Project Guidelines and Best Practices for the Use of Text-to-Speech (TTS) in Audio Description June 2025 Submitted by: ACB Audio Description project Steering committee and endorsed by the ACB Advocacy Steering committee Introduction Audio Description (AD) provides blind and low vision individuals with vital access to visual media. Traditionally, human-voiced narration has set the gold standard for AD, offering expressiveness, emotional nuance, and clarity. Thus, the American Council of the Blind supports the use of human-voiced audio description as the preferred mode of its provision for consumers. (Resolution 2021-22). As advances in Text-to-Speech (TTS) and AI-generated voices become more prevalent, it is critical to ensure that their use maintains and never diminishes the quality, dignity, and accessibility of Audio Description. This document outlines the American Council of the Blind’s (ACB) Guidelines and Best Practices for the responsible use of TTS in Audio Description. Core Principles • Equity of Access: Blind and low vision individuals must receive a media experience that is as equivalent as possible in richness, clarity, and engagement to that of sighted audiences. • Human Centric Quality: Human voiced Audio Description remains the gold standard. • Responsible Technology Use: Where TTS is used, it must meet or approximate the quality standards of human narration. • Transparency: Audiences must be informed when TTS is used. • Inclusion: Blind and low vision individuals must participate in and be a part of the evaluation and quality control of AD projects, including AD scripts. Guidelines for TTS in Audio Description • Voice Quality: Natural, human like intonation. Avoid robotic or mechanical delivery. Emotional tone should match the context of the scene. Ensure clear articulation and consistent pronunciation, especially for names, technical terms, and cultural references. • Timing and Pacing: Proper synchronization with on-screen action. Use natural pausing and breathing patterns to support listener comprehension. • Pronunciation and Clarity: Accurate pronunciation of names, places, idioms, and foreign terms. Respect culturally specific pronunciation and dialects. • Emotional Engagement: Convey appropriate emotional tone urgency, tension, tenderness, excitement, through vocal modulation and pitch. • Audio and Sound Quality: High Fidelity Audio Output: Minimum 48kHz/24-bit preferred for narration tracks. • Mixing and Balance: Ensure clear, audible narration. Use techniques such as audio ducking when appropriate to prevent program audio from overpowering the description. • Consistent Volume Levels: Comply with loudness standards (e.g., EBU R128, ATSC A/85). • No Audio Artifacts: Audio must be free from distortion, glitches, hiss, or dropouts. • Stereo/Surround Compatibility: Narration must sound correct on stereo and surround sound systems. • Ambient Sound Respect: Retain environmental sounds essential to storytelling when possible. Best Practices for Implementation • Prioritize Human Voice: TTS should only be used when human-voiced narration is not feasible due to logistical or production ...
