Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) This research focused on “Audio description of a movie.” Audio description is a narration explaining visual information. We were interested in the idea, what kind of audio description well expresses the 3D-effect of a three-dimensional movie? We found that the visually impaired didn’t want verbalizing the 3D-effect. Next, we carried out an experiment which compared normal audio description and 3D audio description with visually-impaired subjects. As a result, we found that although they generally preferred normal audio description, some preferred 3D audio description at the following cases: 1) those who think story is important for a movie think 3D audio description is suitable for mystery movies, 2) those attracted by sounds think 3D audio description is suitable for action movies.
