Guideline 2 - Ensure that all video is accompanied by an audio and textual description

It is essential that all video be accompanied by both an audio and textual description. The audio description should describe all aspects of the video which carry meaningful information and are not conveyed by existing audio elements. If synchronized, the audio description should be timed so that the descriptions are played during natural pauses in the audio elements of the video. The textual description should be a transcription of the audio description. This guideline is in accordance with guidelines 1.1 and 1.3 of the WCAG 1.0.
