FAQ

Q. WHAT ARE TRANSCRIPTS and also POST PRODUCTION SCRIPTS USED FOR?

A. Transcripts are used by film companies in order to assist with editing raw footage. Media agencies and production companies may also use the post production scripts for subtitling or creating closed captions. For non-media related organisations (such as research projects), accurate transcripts are a convenient and efficient way to access information instead of sifting through dense recordings.

 

Q. WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HAVE ACCURATE TRANSCRIPTS?

A. In film production companies, accuracy is essential for streamlining the editing process. Accurate transcriptions in other industries serve as comprehensive tools for clients to access information accurately, correctly and quickly..

With that in mind, our rates and turnaround therefore vary on a project-to-project basis, depending on a number of factors such as background noise, amount of speakers, accents, and whether or not the work is to be verbatim.
