Convencionalidade nas legendas de efeitos sonoros na legendagem para surdos e ensurdecidos (LSE)

The sound in the cinema creates expectations, guides the spectator through images, and shapes the reception of scenes (BORDWELL; THOMPSON, 2008).So that deaf and hard of hearing public may have access to this input when watching an audiovisual production, the subtitle for the deaf and hard of hearing (SDH) translates the movies' sound effects (ARAÚJO, 2004).In search for a SDH model that meets the spectators' needs, a research has been conducted with 34 Brazilians deaf subjects (ARAÚJO; NASCIMENTO, 2011;ARAÚJO ET AL, 2013).The results suggested that the existent sound effects translations would mislead the spectator or would not contribute with relevant information.Taking into account the importance of the sound in the cinema, another research has been conduct in order to analyze how translations of sound effect were made in three commercialized DVDs in Brazil (NASCIMENTO, 2013).The results showed that most sound effects in the films were translated without connecting them to their meanings within the movie plot.Thus, in order to help translators with these translations, this research's main objective is to conventionalize sound effects subtitles and stablish some guidelines to the sound into words task.Furthermore, it is believed that conventionalizing subtitles could render them more accessible as conventionalized units are read faster than non-conventionalized (WOOD, 2015).Therefore, a comparable corpus was collected and analyzed by means of WordSmith Tools software.In order to render the analysis simpler, the corpus was tagged following categories defined by the sound provenience.The following tags were applied to noise: sound produced by men, sound produced by objects, sound produced by nature, sound produced by animals, fictional sounds and silence.To music, the tags were background music and screen music.These tags were used as search words and rendered possible find relevant data, such as the most frequently translated categories within the corpus, which ...
