Abstract
Synchronization is one of the major characteristics of dubbing. The author claims that is the translator who must take care of synchronization, as this requires knowledge of source and target language, as well as of translation strategies and techniques, a knowledge not available to other people involved in the process of audiovisual translation. The article offers a review of the different approaches to synchronisation in the Translation Studies literature. Three different types of synchronization are defined and described: lip-sync, kinetic synchrony and isochrony. Finally, the author discusses a series of translational factors relevant to the analysis of synchronizationI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
