Dear Audiovisual Translators,
I wrote such a lengthy piece for you for this issue that Lucía, our newsletter proofreader, suggested adding it as an article instead of a letter. Therefore, you will find my take on subtitle timing principles in the body of Deep Focus.
Instead, I will use this space to exhort all senior audiovisual linguists to submit your proposals for articles. We need all of you to help educate the next generation of linguists who would be delighted to learn from your experiences. You probably think what you know is not a big deal, but it is a huge deal for those who are just starting, especially in countries where no AVT curriculum has been created in colleges.
If you are interested in being published in Deep Focus, please contact Ana González Meade, our Head of Publications, at publicationsavd@gmail.com.
I hope to see your names printed in our beautiful newsletter soon!
Sincerely,
Deborah Wexler
