are there people who make image descriptions for others? (self.Blind)
submitted by Mutt-Sugar
Hi! This might be a weird question, but are there people who take commission for image descriptions? I made a post about being Autistic and having an Emotional Support Animal. I would like to commission someone going forward for the majority of my posts as well as this one. Thank you in advanced!

Hey there!

I'm a mod over at r/TranscribersOfReddit; we do image/audio/video descriptions on a volunteer basis for a variety of subreddits we have partnerships with!

One of those subs is r/DescriptionPlease, where people can request transcriptions for stuff. If you crosspost your post over there or post your image there I'm sure one of our volunteers can help you out soon.

Let me know if you've got any questions!

What do you mean you want to commission someone for your posts? Trying to undrestand what you mean.

I wasn’t exactly sure either, and they haven’t responded to my post. Having said that, I think they mean they want to pay someone some money to write Image descriptions.

Yeah, that’s what I thought too and interesting I thought you were totally blind how could you write image descriptions.
bradley22 1 points 1y ago
I’d have someone explain the image to me and then I’ll pick out the details that mattered.
TechnicalPragmatist 1 points 1y ago
That’s interesting. A bit indirect hahaha!

I’m completely blind but wouldn’t say no to making some cash. If you want to you could PM me and we could chat and see where things go.
