Video and Audio Localisation, Transcription, Subtitles and Dubbing
WE ARE AWARE OF THE IMPORTANCE OF HIGH QUALITY AUDIOVISUAL COMMUNICATION.
THE LOCALISATION OF VISUAL AND AUDIO CONTENT
Spoken text needs to sound natural. Due to this fact, when localising visual and audio content we dedicate a lot of our attention on making it concise and free-flowing. The translation will not be any less convincing than the original. As we are in collaboration with companies providing dubbing and subtitling services, we can provide you with more than a simple translation of a text.
When localising, the text is translated and adjusted to fit the audience of a specific country or region. The translators performing the task are native speakers who readjust the original in accordance to their culture’s characteristics and peculiarities. This guarantees that the translated text will be convincing and politically correct.
THE STEPS OF THE LOCALISATION PROCESS:
- The client submits a file to be translated, specifies its target audience and any specific needs they have (e.g. in terms of time, the number of symbols, the format of the translation, etc.).
- A project manager evaluates the quality of the recording, clears up any technical questions that might arise and submits an estimated expenditure.
- When the order is confirmed, the text is transcribed, translated, adjusted to fit the specified market and edited.
- After the client reviews the translation, such tasks as subtitling and dubbing are performed.
The elements of an order that consists of localisation depend on the specific needs the client has (e.g. transcribing the text/writing down audio content could be the only task being performed if it is the only thing required by the client).
THE VIDEO AND AUDIO RECORDINGS THAT QUALIFY FOR THE PROCESS OF LOCALISATION:
- Advertisements;
- Product and company presentations;
- Video clips targeted towards a company’s employees;
- Video games;
- Automatic reply service recordings;
- Other types of recordings.
THE TRANSCRIPTION AND TRANSLATION OF SUBTITLES
TRANSCRIPTION
Transcription is a process during which a written or electronic form of a spoken expression is created.
Transcribing an hour-long recording takes around 4-6 hours.
The kinds of recordings that can be transcribed:
- Audio content;
- Video recordings;
- Online seminars;
- Interviews;
- Movies;
- Recordings of court proceedings;
- Recordings of public events;
- Lectures, seminar, conferences.
THE MAIN BENEFITS OF TRANSCRIPTION:
- Posting a transcribed version of a video or audio recording on a website can improve its browsing position and help increase the number of visitors.
- It helps guarantee accessibility and visibility of information when using notes in television programmes and in visual materials dedicated to the deaf and the hard of hearing.
- It helps deaf individuals, the hard of hearing, individuals who don’t speak the language and people who struggle with dialogue comprehension to understand materials that are affected by accent peculiarities or unintelligible pronunciation.
- It allows materials from courses and seminars to be reused in the future.
- It helps the preparation of written documents of business meetings and of academic sessions for public use.
