Abstract:

Translating audio description scripts from foreign into source language seems
to be a tempting alternative strategy of creating audio description scripts in
those countries where audio description is still scarce. This book presents
the results of a three-stage study. This study was conducted to test whether
the translation of audio description scripts written by experienced British
audio describers into Polish is a solution that is less time and money
consuming. Besides it was analysed whether the scripts created through the
application of the translation strategy preserve the quality that satisfies
the target recipients. The obtained results prove that translation of audio
description scripts is not only possible, but also beneficial when it comes to
time consumption, costs and quality of audio description.
