This book offers a comprehensive exploration of sign language in audiovisual content from a translational point of view, creating a bridge between the two disciplines toward fostering a nuanced understanding of this emerging area of research and creative production.

Drawing on work between translation studies, audiovisual translation, media accessibility, sign language studies, and deaf studies, Tamayo draws systematic connections between approaches with introductions to foundational work from the respective fields, creating a dialogue between disciplines. The book moves into exploring the creative potential of sign languages--as a form of accessibility and translation, as a form of art and self-expression, and as its own language in audiovisual media. The volume also considers the different stakeholders involved--from users to translators to scholars to the wider industry of filmmakers, production companies, and artists--in order to provide a holistic view from creation to reception to research.
