UNIVERSAL PICTURES E DOPPIAGGIO GLAMOUR FESTIVAL SI UNISCONO PER ELEVARE L'ARTE DEL DOPPIAGGIO ITALIANO SULLA SCENA GLOBALE

AN IMPORTANT PARTNERSHIP CELEBRATES DUBBING AS A CINEMATIC ART AT THE SEVENTH EDITION OF THE DGF IN GENOA

Dubbing Glamour Festival - Universal Pictures
Universal Pictures partnered with the Dubbing Glamour Festival (DGF) for its 7th edition 2025 (Nov 5-30) in Genoa, Italy, marking a significant milestone in the celebration of cinema, dubbing as a cinematic art form. The collaboration saw Universal joining the festival's prestigious jury and offering emerging talents a unique opportunity to win a professional dubbing session, underscoring the studio's deep commitment to the craft of dubbing and to nurturing Italian talent alongside their global operations.

FILM PRESERVATION AND ACCESSIBILITY

The festival's mission aligns with broader efforts in film preservation and accessibility, areas where Universal Pictures has demonstrated continued dedication. Through its involvement with international restoration initiatives, Universal has supported projects that ensure classic cinema reaches new audiences worldwide. The studio's participation in DGF reflects this same philosophy-recognizing that dubbing is not merely translation, but an essential art that brings films to life across linguistic and cultural boundaries. This connection to preservation and global cinema outreach creates a natural synergy between Universal's work with major restoration efforts, including collaborations related to Martin Scorsese's Film Foundation Restoration Project initiatives and the World Cinema Project, and the festival's celebration of promotion of the Cinema and dubbing excellence.

A PLATFORM FOR CINEMA AND TALENT

The Dubbing Glamour Festival has become a key platform for restored masterpieces, Oscar-winning performances, and emerging vocal talent. Under the artistic direction of Daniela Capurro, the festival showcases the technical prowess and emotional depth required in dubbing, presenting meticulously restored films in a compelling history of cinema that, while beginning with silent films, demonstrates how vocal performance enriches cinematic storytelling across generations. Universal's involvement represents more than corporate sponsorship: it signals the industry's recognition of dubbing as an art form worthy of the same prestige accorded other aspects of filmmaking.

THE CRITIC'S PRIZE - MASSIMILIANO FASOLI

Among the festival's most prestigious awards is the "Critics' Award - Massimiliano Fasoli", established to recognize young dubbing talent. Named after Massimiliano Fasoli, a longtime industry executive, the award is presented by the festival's critics' jury to young artists who have distinguished themselves during auditions. Chaired by Luisa Fallabrino, Massimiliano's wife, the Critics' Award will join forces with key partner Universal in 2025 to promote both the event and the Italian dubbing Industry on the international stage. This connection adds emotional resonance to the festival's mission, creating a legacy that unites artistic excellence with the advancement of the Industry.

A SIGNIFICANT INDUSTRY COLLABORATION

The partnership between Universal Pictures and DGF represents a significant industry collaboration that elevates dubbing from technical necessity to celebrated art form. By joining the jury and offering professional opportunities to emerging talent, Universal demonstrates that dubbing deserves the same prestige afforded to other aspects of filmmaking. This collaboration ensures that Italian dubbing talent receives the global recognition it deserves while strengthening the cultural bridges that make cinema a truly universal language. https://teatrogag.com/universal-pictures-dubbing-glamour-festival-2025-genoa/
