Subtitling
Creation and translation of subtitles for any audiovisual support. Subtitling, as the name suggests, consists of subtitle insertion to an audiovisual work.
It is essential to use this service when we have a video whose language is unknown for a portion of your audience. Given this situation, the subtitler is responsible for transfering and adapting the work information to the desired language, by providing a subtitle track that will be shown on the lower part of the screen, simultaneously with the original audio playback.
The aim of the subtitle technique is to adapt the original language of a given work
to its audience, a process that requires both linguistic and cultural transfers and, therefore, a thorough knowledge of the linguistic and cultural aspects of both the source language and the tartget language.
Indeed, subtitling is a painstaking work on the part of the person in charge, who will need to address a number of essential tasks, such as: documentation, creation and translation of subtitles, subtitle timing (also known as spotting), style adjustments, following subtitling guidelines, orthotypographical proofreading, quality control, etc. in order to ensure the quality service.
