It presents in an entertaining and easy-to-read manner all the changes that have taken place in the fascinating world of dubbing after the advent of digitalization, cloud ecosystems and artificial intelligence.

Based on first-hand experience in the field, this textbook combines theory with hands-on practice through exercises, case studies, and examples drawn from a wide range of dubbed films and shows - from classical films to artificial intelligence attempts at dubbing – thus offering a complete, clear and practical introduction to one of the most challenging forms of audiovisual translation. It helps users develop key skills needed for dubbing, presents a broad picture of the industry, engages with the various controversies in the field, and challenges prevailing stereotypes. Chapters the fundamentals of lip-sync, natural dialogue, quality standards, and creative fidelity, while also addressing new industry realities such as streaming platforms, globalization, and artificial intelligence.
