Abstract

Society progresses and innovates itself at the same time as technology does. The invention of the camera, the cinema, the television and, finally, the Internet has led to the appearance of new products which, together with globalization, have had a direct impact on translation, which has been gradually modelled. Moreover, there is a type of modality that has been consolidated within Translation Studies and it is gaining more and more strength: audiovisual translation. However, the problem is that, in Catalonia as well as in Spain, most of the studies deal with modalities that are already settled, such as dubbing, and they barely focus on the other ones, such as voice-over. Actually, there is an even more unknown field in this modality: reception. Having this into account, our goal is to analyse the reception of voice-over in Catalonia to prove whether factors such as age, language or the audiovisual experience of the audience have an influence on it. To this end, we have published a survey that has been answered by 201 people who are Catalan or Spanish native speakers. We must say that, although we have not been able to obtain a balanced sample of each generation to fully achieve our objective, this study could serve as a baseline for a more extensive one. Thus, we wanted to make people aware of voice-over existence and of the absence of bibliography to give it the importance that it deserves and do not let tradition and lack of awareness prevent it.
