Places foreign-language film viewing at the centre of the screen media worldWith over 6000 languages in the world today, media speak is far from universal, yet the complexities of translation are rarely acknowledged by the industry, or by audiences and scholars. Redressing this neglect, Speaking in Subtitles argues that the oddities and idiosyncrasies of translation are vital to screen media’s global storytelling. Examining a range of examples from crowdsourced subtitling to avant-garde dubbing to the growing field of ‘fansubbing’, Tessa Dwyer proposes that film, television and video are fundamentally ‘translational' media.Covers controversial topics including:CensorshipMedia piracyAmateurism Fansubbing (fan subtitling)CrowdsourcingCase Studies The Invisible Cinema, New York (1970-74)Viki Global TV (www.viki.com)
