Japanese subtitling for independent film companies
- Knockhundred Admin

We have a number of regular clients for whom we produce Japanese transcriptions and also Japanese to English direct translations from audio.

As a project manager for Knockhundred, I spend a lot of time managing the translation of Italian audio speech into English, and in this context was fascinated to read about somebody who reacts to the sound of Italian speech in the same way as I do.
