The Subtitling Process In A Nutshell
Send us your video file in any format. We’ll ensure it’s compatible with our subtitling software. If you’re unsure about the format, feel free to double-check with us.
We’ll create an English subtitle template, which is crucial if the subtitles will be translated into multiple languages.
We’ll send the English template to our professional linguists, who will translate it into the requested languages with precision.
Once translated, we’ll import the subtitles into our software. We’ll perform quality checks to ensure proper timing, reading speeds, and line lengths.
We’ll share the subtitles with you for review. Let us know if any changes are needed, and we’ll make adjustments while adhering to technical requirements.
After final approval, we’ll burn in the subtitles (if requested) and deliver the completed video through your preferred file-transfer method.
