Accurate subtitles that engage

There are so many subtitle translator tools, apps and pseudo-services online it boggles the mind. If you're tempted to use one of these free or low-cost services. Hold up! This page is for you.

These online automated tools or services use machine-generated translations powered by Google or Amazon APIs. Fine for throwaway content, perhaps, but not for anyone serious about the success of their film.

With certainty, we can assure you their accuracy will be horrendous, especially if actors talk in slang, with an accent or in a noisy environment. The subtitles also will not be formatted to the guidelines accepted by leading streaming platforms.

All our approved subtitle translators follow industry guidelines, making it easier for your viewers to enjoy the content.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to translate a subtitle?

Translating any subtitle from one language to another starts with creating a source timed-text script formatted as subtitles adhering to character limits and good subtitling practices. Then a professional subtitle translator, native in the target language and expert in the source language, uses specialist subtitling translation software to translate, edit and retime the translated subtitles. There are hundreds of free and paid subtitling tools available. Popular free tools include Subtitle Edit and Aegisub. At the Higher-end, paid and cloud-based apps like Telestream CaptionMaker and IBM Watson Media are popular.

How to translate subtitles for movies?

Movie subtitling translation for Netflix, TV or Cinema releases is always performed by a qualified audiovisual translator working in one language pair, e.g. Korean > English. Using the movie script, they will first cue (split and time-stamp) the script as subtitles and then translate and adapt the speech into a time-text format like SRT, STL or XML. The translated subtitles can then be turned on or off in the streaming service player or burnt into the video in various subtitling styles by a professional video editor.

How to add subtitles and translations to your videos?

If you have your subtitles ready in a timed-text format such as SRT, you can append these to your video by following the instructions provided by the service. YouTube, Vimeo and other web players easily add your subtitle/caption files quickly. For Amazon Prime or Netflix, there may be an approval process first. If you wish to make it so the video subtitles cannot be disabled, using video editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro, it is best to hard-encode (burn-in) the subtitles. The benefit of burnt-in subtitles (also known as open captions) is that you can change the subtitling style to match your brand or story.

How much do subtitle translators get paid?

Subtitling translation services rates are charged per minute of video material. The pay depends on the source language and the target language, as this determines the required nativity and training of the subtitle translator. There are five steps involved in subtitle translations. 1. transcription, 2. spotting, 3. cueing, 4. translation, and 5. encoding / burnt-in. Most subtitle translators do not do all the steps themselves. Expect to pay anything from around $5 per minute for professional subtitle translations in one language pair but bear in mind the rate depends on the medium. Movies tend to have half the number of words of corporate videos, for example, so movie subtitles at a per-minute rate are less expensive to create.
