I'm doing a research for a major which requires me to interview people who are blind, play some TV commercials for them, and ask them if they got to understand or relate to the ad material. Any advice on how to approach this? (self.Blind)

I did read the FAQ portion for sighted readers but I just wanted some more in depth input. I just want to avoid making anyone uncomfortable or seem inconsiderate in any way. Any advice would be appreciated!

Since you actually need to see blind people face-to-face to do this, you should reach out to the staff at your college/university who organise disability services because they might be able to put you in touch with blind people. You could also contact blindness organisations and groups in your area. If you tell us what college/university you attend, we might be able to offer more suggestions.

Hi, you can find a selection of commercials on Youtube, play it for both sighted and blind individuals. Ask them the same questions?
1. What is the commercial marketing?
2. Was the dialog in the commercial informative?
3. Were the sound effects informative?
4. Was the commercial effective?
I would suggest using the super bowl commercials, as they invest so much money on them. They are definitely going all out in marketing their product as best as possible.

Granted none of this "research" will actually ammount to anything, so my suggestion is that you do some research which will actually make an impact if implemented.
