Exactly what is subtitling?
Subtitling is the process of creating text captions to accompany a video. Typically, subtitles are displayed in a two-line format at the bottom of the screen.
Subtitles can be used to provide translation or simply to make the video more accessible to viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing. Subtitling can also be used to create captions for videos that are being shown in a noisy environment, such as a bar or club.

The voice over industry is a booming business! There are so many different types of jobs in the voice over world, and we're going to be featuring a few of them over the next several weeks.
Let's start with translators. They play a key role in the foreign language voiceover production process.
Translators are responsible for taking the source text and making it sound natural in the target language. This is a complex task that involves not only translating words, but also ensuring that the translated text fits the length of the original audio (if the project is timed) and sounds like it was originally written in the target language.
Translators must also be familiar with the cultural nuances of the target audience. It is essential to ensure that the tone and message of the original text are preserved in the translated version.
