One movie.
All theaters.
AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON YOUR OWN PHONE
Showtime
Prepare the movie once.
The same prepared audio description works wherever that version of the movie plays. Because Showtime follows the soundtrack, it doesn’t need a separate synchronization setup for each theater or showtime.
Robust, state-of-the-art technology is designed for a wide range of conditions, including multiplexes and auditoriums without Wi-Fi or cell reception.
Guests use their own phones and headphones. Theaters and studios can offer audio description across screenings with the same prepared film.
Try it with your laptop and phone.
Play the film on your laptop and hear synchronized audio description through AudioVista on your phone. You’ll need the app and headphones.
Your laptop becomes an AudioVista cinema.
Try the full AudioVista cinema experience with your laptop and phone. Play the movie on your laptop, which temporarily becomes an AudioVista cinema. Then open the AudioVista app on your phone to access the local audio and listen through your headphones.
Your cinema runs for five minutes, then clears automatically—even if you close this page.
