Our Commitment to Accessibility
At Golden Hour Studios, we believe that everyone deserves equal access to information and services online. We are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our website to ensure we provide a seamless experience for all users.
Conformance to WCAG Guidelines
This website endeavors to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 level AA. These guidelines outline best practices for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities. Conforming to these guidelines helps make the web more user-friendly for everyone.
Accessibility Features
We have implemented the following features to enhance the accessibility of our website:
- Alternative Text: All images and non-text content have alternative text descriptions, allowing screen readers to convey the meaning and context of the visuals.
- Keyboard Navigation: The entire website can be navigated using a keyboard, ensuring that users who cannot use a mouse can still access all content and functionality.
- Clear and Consistent Structure: We use semantic HTML elements (e.g., headings, lists, paragraphs) to structure our content, making it easier for screen readers to interpret and navigate.
- Sufficient Color Contrast: We ensure that there is sufficient contrast between text and background colors, making the content easier to read for users with low vision.
- Resizable Text: Users can easily increase or decrease the text size without losing content or functionality.
- Form Accessibility: Our forms are designed with clear labels and instructions, making them easy to understand and complete. We also provide error messages that are easy to identify and correct.
- Video Accessibility: We provide captions and transcripts for all video content, making it accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.
- Dark Theme Option: Users can switch to a dark theme to improve readability in low-light conditions, reducing eye strain and enhancing the viewing experience.
