Professional profile
The Master aims to provide a useful overview of the field of Audiovisual Translation for a new generation of students interested in understanding those segments of the translation market that are emerging as the most productive, in addition to the more known as the translation for Dubbing and Subtitling, to those less known as the Localization (which is in continuous expansion so that you can now talk about the "translation industry") and also that of new professional profiles such as Respeaking, Subtitling for the deaf and Audiodescription for the blind.
