Abstract
This article looks at two audio description techniques widely used since the beginning of television. While it is true that research in the field has just started, with no PhD to date, the authors believe the many studies and range of experience which already exist should be taken into consideration, since this may shed some light on the topic and broaden the insight of new research. They believe that much can be learned and put into good use from those observations made by classical scholars instead of developing a new terminology and inventing new parameters for what seems to be considered a new practice.
