The W‐ Icad model
This research describes the development of the Workshop for Inclusive Co‐created Audio Description (W‐ICAD) model. Research from psychology and neuroscience explains why the assumption that vision is necessarily sufficient to be able to engage with collections is problematic, and why inclusive museum audio description (AD) (referred to as visual or verbal description in the United States) might begin to provide a solution to this problem. At the …
Experiencing a historic garden online
Historic gardens can promote social inclusion and engender a sense of wellbeing. Since the pandemic, many cultural institutions have sought to enhance their online provision. However, content inevitably assume sight. An inclusive audio descriptive online tour of the Chelsea Physic Garden was created for people who were blind and partially blind (BPB) and sighted. Sixty-two participants completed an evaluation questionnaire directly after experien…
Testing the retranslation hypothesis for audiovisual translation
This article uses the Descriptive Translation Studies framework to examine the English subtitles for two German films directed by Volker Schlöndorff: Die verlorene Ehre der Katharina Blum [The Lost Honour of Katharina Blum], directed in 1975, and Die Blechtrommel [The Tin Drum], from 1979, with a view to testing the earliest formulation of the retranslation hypothesis. Using the concept of translational norms as one of its main heuristic tools, t…
Embracing the threat
Recent decades have brought significant changes in the subtitling industry, both in terms of workflow and in the context of the market for audiovisual translation (AVT). Machine translation (MT), whilst in regular use in the traditional localisation industry, has not seen a significant uptake in the subtitling arena. The SUMAT project, an EU-funded project which ran from 2011 to 2014, had as its aim the building and evaluation of viable MT soluti…
Parallel subtitle corpora and their applications in machine translation and translatology
SUMAT is a project funded through the EU ICT Policy Support Programme (2011–2014). It involves four subtitling companies (InVision, DDS, Titelbild, VSI) and five technical partners (ALS, ATC, TextShuttle, University of Maribor, Vicomtech).For the SUMAT project, translated subtitles for seven language pairs have been collected. Four subtitling companies have contributed to this effort, which has so far resulted in collections numbering between 200…
