Abstract

Audiovisual translation dating back to the silent film era is a special translation method which has been developed for the translation of the movies and programs shown on TV and cinema. Therefore, in the beginning, the term “film translation” was used for this type of translation. Due to the growing number of audiovisual texts it has attracted the interest of scientists and has been assessed under the translation studies. Also in our country the concept of film translation was used for this area, but recently, the concept of audio-visual has been used. Since it not only encompasses the films but also covers all the audio-visual communicatian tools as well, especially in scientific field. In this study, the aspects are analyzed which should be taken into consideration by the translator during the audio-visual translation process within the framework of source text, translated text, film, technical knowledge and knowledge. At the end of the study, it is shown that there are some factors, apart from linguistic and paralinguistic factors and they must be considered carefully as they can influence the quality of the translation. And it is also shown that the given factors require technical knowledge in translation. In this sense, the audio-visual translation is accessed from a different angle compared to the other researches which have been done.
