It presents, in an entertaining and easy-to-read manner, all the changes that have taken place in the fascinating world of dubbing since the advent of digitalization, cloud ecosystems and artificial intelligence.Based on first-hand experience in the field, this textbook combines theory with hands-on practice through exercises, case studies and examples drawn from a wide range of dubbed films and shows – from classical films to artificial intelligence attempts at dubbing – thus offering a complete, clear and practical introduction to one of the most challenging forms of audiovisual translation.
