Interpreter Tactics and Secrets Revealed
By popular demand, here's the audio file of my talk "Unlocking the Booth - Interpreters Tactics and Secrets Revealed", which I delivered last year at the 50th Annual ATA Conference in New York City.
I have edited the file somewhat, and it's now barely over one hour in length (split in two files of about 30min.).
Click HERE to listen to Part 1, and HERE to listen to Part 2.
A copy of the powerpoint that goes with it can be downloaded from the web site of the Portuguese Language Division (PLData Net), courtesy of Elena Langdon and Eloisa Marques, present and former Administrators of PLD, respectively. Incidentally, I should thank both of them for the kind invitation to present as Distinguished Speaker at that landmark conference.
This talk -- as well as a second conference on the use of portable equipment in interpretation -- is also included in the official Conference DVD you can buy from ATA.
I hope you enjoy it. Several colleagues found it useful and kindly sent me their feedback. I encourage you to share your opinion as well.
Other than that, enjoy the New Year and keep safe out there in the cold... or in the heat, as the case may be.
