Audio describing Game of Thrones in the UK (self.Blind)
submitted by Talking_Books


Every Saturday during the run of the show, audio describer Neville Watchurst is in a booth at SKY, writing and recording the audio description for the brand new episodes of Game of Thrones. 

How does he convey the action, how does he avoid giving spoilers, and how does he fit it all in?

Great listen! Is UK the only place where Game Of Thrones is described or does HBO provide descriptions in the US?

If you go to www.blindmicemart.com and sign up, you’ll find they have a movie volt.

Click on that, type in game of thrones, press enter and you’ll find all the seasons, as far as I know, of game of thrones.

I know about that site and audiovault.net. Both of them have been down for a week now. It looks like they have been taken down by the authorities.

Audio vault is transferring to a bigger server and should be up tomorrow according to audiogames.net

Oh that's good to hear. Thanks for sharing. I should check the audio games forum more often.

HBO doesn't offer audio description for any of their series.

So people outside of the UK need to wait for the Bluray release? That sucks.
CloudyBeep 1 points 4y ago
I'm not sure if it's on the Blu-Ray release; it may only be when the show is aired on TV in the UK.
ErtaySh 1 points 4y ago
Oh, for such a high profile and high budget show that's terrible.

Is there anyway to get these in Australia
bradley22 2 points 4y ago
If you go to audiovault.net tomorrow the site should be working again.
