Translations (Transcreation) ENG - DEU

Spectra Agency (Prague, CZ) • Casual / On-call

Jan 2019 - Present

I am helping on-call with transcreations (more than translation) from ENG to DEU for the German speaking D/A/CH market. This way the translated text is without any obstacles for German mother tongue readers. The texts sell much better than stupid translations.
I also proofread texts. For example prepress PDF documents or mailings. To make sure, that te texts for mass mailings, company brochures or advertising campaigns will be without mistakes.
As a typographer, I am used to understand prepress artworks and I am able to do quality checks (design, colours, tone of voice etc.).

This was a very special translation case. The client had two videos that contained good and bad takes of a film session. My task was to watch the videos using FRAME IO and step by step translate the Czech audio into English comments. The comments were also to be put on the timeline properly.
