Hi -
I have a project upcoming that has several parts that I could use help with. Perhaps you can do all of them, but I am willing to offer the project of subtitles separately if that is what the right person wants to do.

I will be very clear here and say that I do not want any AI or automated translation or subtitles. We have tried that previously for the Korean language series and it was not successful. Please, if you are not fluent in Western Armenian and willing to do this personally, decline to participate in this project.

The project has interviews of people speaking in Armenian, and I am told Western Armenian although we are in the Los Angeles area and I think it is a bit of a lingua franca here. You would know better than I how different the two languages might be. These interviews will be 45 minutes to 1 hour long and will require transcription and translation from Western Armenian language into English. Those transcriptions and translations then need to be approved by my client.

Once the approved by my client here, we will need creation of English subtitles and addition of those subtitles, very accurately, to the video so that I can edit the content. That video can be lower resolution, 720 is OK, and will only be used to overlay the actual video for editing purposes. I do not want an SRT file, I want an actual subtitle burned-in movie from the one I will post for this purpose.

I will also have six English language scripts for teleprompter presentation, each of about 300 to 500 words. These will need to be translated into Western Armenian.

Timing is a ways off. Likely I will have scripts at the end of March and need them back in a week or two. The interviews won't be captured until April some time and again, each step, transcription, translation, and subtitles, may take a week or two. The boxes here on StaffMeUp want a "Duration" of the hire. I don't expect to hire anyone for two months but do think the span of the project will be that or longer. Absolutely will to pay as portions are completed.

Let me know what parts of this project would you like to be involved with, and give me an idea of cost, please?

Thank you,

Rich
