The Challenges of Audiovisual Translation: Subtitling Cultures
This workshop will focus on the challenges of audiovisual translation (AVT) from both technical and linguistic angles. The first part of the session will introduce the basics of AVT, its technical elements and various types of programs used for the creation of subtitles. This will be followed by other aspects such as time or space constraints and limitations that have an impact on the translation of the original film script into subtitles. Throughout the workshop there will be practical activities which will lead to reflection, analysis and discussion about the challenges and constraints of this mode of translation. The workshop will be conducted in English.
