[MUSIC PLAYING] Hi, everyone. I'm Mark from Vyond. Today, we're talking about color contrast and web accessibility. Whenever you create content, it's important to think of everyone who may want to watch it, including those with disabilities. Luckily, we have the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, often referred to as WCAG 2.0, to provide a single, shared, international standard to ensure that web content is accessible to all. 

According to the World Health Organization, there are more than 215 million people who suffer from some form of visual impairment alone. One area that's often overlooked when creating animations for web content is color contrast. This web content generally refers to visual information that's posted on a web page or application, like text, images, and video, all pretty important things to help tell our story. 

According to the guidelines, the contrast ratio between text and its background should be at least 4.5 to 1, in order to meet the minimum conformance eligibility level of AA, to look like this. This ratio becomes less prominent with larger fonts, since it's easier to read at lower contrast. So, for example, if your type is at least 18 point or 14 point bold, the minimum contrast ratio drops to 3 to 1. 

The WebAIM color contrast checker is a free resource that will calculate the score for both the regular and larger text sizes. It's perfect to calculate your values. Just enter your color values and check the results for compliance. And that's all there is to helping everyone access your content.
