    Media Accessibility Predictions for 2023 with Chris Antunes and Josh Miller

    At the end of every year, 3Play Media co-founders and co-CEOs Josh Miller and Chris Antunes propose media accessibility predictions for the year ahead. This month, Elisa chatted with them about their predictions for 2023, trends from this last year, and where the future of media accessibility is headed. The conversation revolves around five predictions: 1. Audio description will become a media accessibility given rather than an afterthought. 2. End users’ voices will be heard, and studio-quality captioning will continue to be the standard for high-end content. 3. Despite the hype around OpenAI, it will not change the media accessibility landscape much in 2023. 4. Media accessibility will continue to become an even higher priority globally. 5. Despite the challenging economic environment, the world’s largest companies will continue to set a high bar for accessibility and inclusion.
