Alex Howard is a host of The Dark Room podcast and is a self-described cinephile. He is all about the implementation of Audio Description for all movies and is an advocate for the blind and low vision community in the film and TV industry.
He joins Grant Hardy on The Pulse to talk about compelling AD tracks, navigating sight loss and adapting his hobby of watching movies through his sight loss journey.
Plus, Alex gives us a glimpse at some of his picks for Best Picture at the Oscars, and some other award-winning or nominated films that contain disability representation.
