Trainer Background Part-time lecturer in Translation and Audiovisual Translation at Imperial College London
Who Would Benefit? Freelance translators, undergraduate and postgraduate translation students
Course Objectives Working with WinCAPS, the course participants will have the opportunity to familiarise
themselves with different types of audiovisual texts and with the respective approaches that
would be adopted in translating them within the framework of interlingual subtitling.
Subtitling Software WinCAPS
Course Content From the European Parliament to Walt Disney, from film dialogue to song: a hands-on
workshop on interlingual subtitling.

The course will start with a brief review of the main theoretical and practical issues
concerning interlingual subtitling, as well as of the main features of the subtitling software
in use (WinCAPS), as a reminder to those who participated in the previous workshop and
an introduction to those who did not. This will be followed by a more hands-on workshop
during which the participants will have the opportunity to work with a number of different
audiovisual texts. Some of the time will be devoted to working on the English texts,
practising segmentation, condensation and other relevant techniques, while some of the
time will be devoted to their translation into the target language of choice. Depending on
the language pairs chosen by the participants, some material might be provided in other
languages for translation into English.

Some time will be left at the end for questions. A list of useful websites and other sources
of information will be given to all the participants.
Certificate You will receive a certificate of attendance.
