German Subtitles for an Italian Movie

This voluntary project took place in the winter semester of 2011/12; the working process lasted almost three months. The movie with the subtitles was presented at the premiere in Berlin, in Frankfurt and also in Germersheim in the context of the international conference "Italien im Wandel".

For most of the students, it was the first subtitling project and they were eager to do their best. The work itself was not easy, but exciting: the students had to find the adequate translation and length for the subtitles, and had to make sure they were properly synchronised with the dialogue.

This project was launched and coordinated by Mr Fantinuoli. It is a project which represents another contact point between Germans and Italians.
