Abstract

Simultaneous interpretation for 33 Daily Media Briefings (DMB) as well as 128 pre- and post-match Press Conferences (PCs) at the Football World Cup in Rio in 2014 was provided by a team of 31 professional conference interpreters using Video Remote Interpreting technology. The aim of the study was to find out interpreters' perceptions of remote interpreting in an attempt to better understand the technical and human factors involved in Video Remote Interpreting. For this purpose, five constructs (attitude, wellbeing, environment, workplace, and technology) were explored in a mixed-method approach, consisting of pre- and post-event questionnaires as well as in-depth interviews given during the event.
