What is it about?
This is an attempt to bring multimodality, as a discipline, to the assistance of audiovisual translation. Multimodal studies are now extensive but little focussed on the problems of translation. The article deals with multimodal transcriptions, referencing systems and multisensorial approaches.

Why is it important?
