    GMT. - Workshop: Accessibility for Multi-Media

    –
    20th May 2026

    Much of the content we create now involves multi-media. Videos, Podcasts, Audio files and images. This workshop brings attendees through the different considerations when creating the different media types, including:

    • Introduction to a set of personas and examination of the issues they face using media.
    • A look at different types of images, and how to approach ensuring their use is accessible to all.
    • A look at audio and video and how video can be added to online courses.
    • First steps with Captions, and different ways to create them.

    This event is only for Brickfield Accessibility Toolkit subscribers. Other registrations will be ignored.
