“…For example, Morris et al [76] examined approaches for "rich" image descriptions that support interactive image accessibility, while others built systems to enable touch-based image exploration [65,81]. Researchers have also studied the efficacy of using music, earcons, and tactile elements for the accessibility of artwork [14,15,96], museum experiences [2,69], and data visualizations [8,103,106]. Others have researched the nuances of image consumption and visual descriptions on popular social media websites, including Twitter and Facebook [37-40, 72, 77, 124, 130].…”

While audio description (AD) is the standard approach for making videos accessible to blind and low vision (BLV) people, existing AD guidelines do not consider BLV users' varied preferences across viewing scenarios. These scenarios range from how-to videos on YouTube, where users seek to learn new skills, to historical dramas on Netflix, where a user's goal is entertainment. Additionally, the increase in video watching on mobile devices provides an opportunity to integrate nonverbal output modalities (e.g., audio cues, tactile elements, and visual enhancements). Through a formative survey and 15 semi-structured interviews, we identified BLV people's video accessibility preferences across diverse scenarios. For example, participants valued action and equipment details for howto videos, tactile graphics for learning scenarios, and 3D models for fantastical content. We define a six-dimensional video accessibility design space to guide future innovation and discuss how to move from "one-size-fits-all" paradigms to scenario-specific approaches.
