Our Primary Subtitling

We work with a curated network of professional, in-territory translators and qualified native speakers with extensive subject-matter expertise in a wide range of industries. Our translation services span all content types, from digital to print, including journals, art pieces, websites, graphics, technical manuals, learning materials, books, software, multimedia, healthcare, legal, and financial. With our accurate and culturally appropriate translation services, you can be assured of high-quality standards, cost-effectiveness, and a quick time-to-market solution.
Closed Captioning:
We work with our clients to get more value from their existing videos with high-quality, time-synchronized captions customized to their specific needs. Our video closed-captioning services make videos more accessible, enrich the viewer experience, and attract more audiences from around the world, including those who don’t know the language. As a result, more viewers can enjoy the content–even with the sound turned off.
Metadata Localization:
Metadata is a critical component of any content type (text/image/audio/video). It describes that content so that websites, search engines, and other search applications can easily identify what the content is about. Without metadata, it would be very hard for viewers to discover content, e.g., videos on platforms such as YouTube or Netflix. LearningMate offers the best-in-class metadata services for foreign markets–across digital and text–taking into account local search terms and phrases to drive business value and improve innovation and collaboration.
Scripting/Continuity Lists:
Continuity lists describe each shot of a video and include dialogue for that shot. Combined Continuity and Spotting Lists (CCSL) and Combined Dialogue and Spotting Lists (CDSL) are industry standards for continuity required by broadcast companies and studios. They provide the legal description of the video for copyright purposes and are used as a blueprint for closed captioning and subtitles. In addition, we offer scripting in CCSL, CDSL, as well as other formats and styles.
Audio Services
LearningMate uses the best-in-class audio software and applications to provide industry-compliant audio services. These include converting digital sound to the required file formats, eliminating noise, timing recordings accurately to match on-screen animation, and normalizing volume across file formats.
