Abstract
With the arrival of sound to film, subtitling moved down to a second place. Although subtitling was mostly created as a support for linguistic understanding, Romero-Fresco (2013; 2020) or McClarty (2012) are committed to an additional creativity, known as “creative subtitling”.
According to Romero-Fresco (2013; 2020), there should exist a relationship between filmmakers and subtitlers to get a final product whose effect is the same as in the original language.
Therefore, the present paper will consist in analysing the technical aspects of creative subtitling by comparing both conventional subtitling and creative subtitling, and a translation project will be created including creative subtitles to some parts of Toy Story 4 in order to observe which results can be obtained, such as the implementation of creative subtitles to animation films regarding some characters’ physical characteristics or the visual image.
