Audiovisual translation adapts a video from one language to another: synced subtitles, voice-over, dubbing scripts or captions for the deaf and hard of hearing. The text must fit the screen, match the pace and stay true to the meaning. On Helplease, you state the languages, the length and the format, and the workers offering this service in Kapyl’ are notified of your request.

What the service includes

• Synced subtitling with timecoding (SRT, VTT files).
• Translation and adaptation of scripts for voice-over or dubbing.
• Captions for the deaf and hard of hearing.
• Transcription and dialogue timing when needed.

How to choose well

The deliverable

Say whether you want burned-in subtitles, a subtitle file or a voice-over.

Format and length

State the length, the video format and whether a script or transcript already exists.

The style

Marketing content has a different tone from a documentary. State the register you want.

What affects the price

• the length of the video;
• the language pair;
• timecoding and synchronisation;
• the deliverable (subtitles, voice-over, burned-in);
• the requested deadline.

The rate is agreed with the worker based on these elements.
