Video Description Research
By Alicia Waters | March 5, 2013
The following quote is from Joshua A. Miele describing his latest project, Descriptive Video Exchange. “We are looking at a coming day very soon when electronic textbooks will contain embedded video. We’re looking ahead to a day when most instructional materials will be provided via YouTube or other video-based informational media. The research center [Smith-Kettlewell Video Description Research and Development Center in San Francisco] that I run is dealing with those challenges. One of the programs currently running is the Descriptive Video Exchange.”
“The first version of this cloud-based software program is out this month and will work for any video on YouTube.” (quoted from the New York Times article, The Crime of His Childhood by Wendell Jamieson. Published March 2, 2013)
