Subtitling, or Audio-visual Translation, of growing importance worldwide:

Subtitling is growing ever more important worldwide, as the DVD subtitling market is constantly growing, but also because more and more people are in need of audio-visual translations due to the fact that they're hearing-impaired or illiterate. Furthermore, there is an increasing demand for Internet subtitling.

With our subtitling courses you can learn to make subtitles in any language combination, although we advise the combination EN-Any Language, as most audio-visual productions are produced in the English-speaking world.

Picking up bad subtitling habits
Not trusting your automatic brain processes
Remaining stuck in mediocrity
