All4Access App Information

The All4Access app may be used by those seeking audio description to accompany our films. This year, Superfest partnered with the DiCapta Foundation, which provided audio description for the majority of our films. While Superfest used to play all films with open audio description, we learned that our efforts to bring access to low vision and blind users created an access barrier for others with sensory-processing disabilities. We are optimistic that the All4Access app will allow access without compromising the quality of the viewing experience thanks to the app’s live-synching methods. We invite your feedback afterwards, as access is always a work in progress with room for growth.
