We strive to provide a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our website to ensure we provide equal access to information.

These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines helps make the web more user-friendly for everyone.

Specific Accessibility Features
Keyboard Navigation
Our website is designed to be fully navigable using a keyboard. Users can navigate through links, forms, and other interactive elements using the tab key, arrow keys, and enter key. We have ensured that the focus order is logical and intuitive.
Alternative Text for Images
All images on our website include descriptive alternative text (alt text). This text provides a description of the image for users who are unable to see it, such as those using screen readers. Our alt text is concise and informative, accurately conveying the content and purpose of each image. For example, the Aurora Studios logo in the header has the alt text "Aurora Studios Logo".
Color Contrast
We have carefully selected color combinations that provide sufficient contrast between text and background. This ensures that text is readable for users with low vision or color blindness. We regularly check color contrast ratios using automated tools to ensure that we meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards.
Screen Reader Compatibility
Our website is designed to be compatible with screen reader software. We use semantic HTML to structure our content, which helps screen readers interpret and present the information to users. We also provide ARIA attributes to enhance the accessibility of complex components.
Adjustable Text Size
Users can adjust the text size of our website using their browser settings. Increasing the text size makes it easier for users with low vision to read the content. We have designed our website to be responsive, ensuring that the layout remains usable even when the text size is increased.
Clear and Consistent Navigation
Our website has a clear and consistent navigation structure. This helps users easily find the information they are looking for. We use a consistent menu structure throughout the website, and we provide breadcrumb navigation on interior pages. The main navigation includes links to the Home page, About page, Services page, Portfolio page, and Contact page.
Forms Accessibility
All forms on our website are designed to be accessible. We provide clear labels for all form fields, and we use ARIA attributes to provide additional information for screen reader users. We also provide clear error messages to help users correct any mistakes they make when filling out forms.
Video Accessibility
Where videos are used on our site, we strive to include captions, transcripts, and audio descriptions to make the content accessible to users with hearing or visual impairments. We aim to follow best practices for video accessibility to ensure everyone can benefit from the media content.
Known Limitations
Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility, there may be some limitations on our website. We are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our website and will address any issues as soon as possible.
