Subtitling and voiceovers

Case Studies

Audiovisual translation
One of our pharmaceutical clients had over 100 video interviews with patients from around the world as part of an international diabetes study. Knockhundred was asked to provide a direct translation of any interviews not conducted in English. Working in real time and simultaneously in many languages, we completed and returned the work within a 3-month period.
Subtitling
Our remit? Provide perfectly crafted subtitles in 10 languages in order to encourage international students to enrol at one of the UK’s top universities. Knockhundred worked on 4 or 5 videos per month over a 12-month period. We hear that the university has increased its international student intake by more than 30%. We’re not saying it was all down to us, but…
Voiceover
The challenge? We were asked to produce time-coded scripts in 19 languages for 18 videos and add voice overs in each language for each of the videos. And all within 6 weeks. Working tirelessly, the Knockhundred team ensured the work was completed ahead of schedule and within budget. Great project management and another happy customer.
Translation
As part of a major European research project, Knockhundred was commissioned to translate 1.25 million words from 23 different languages into English. We rose to the challenge and received glowing feedback from our client: “Knockhundred delivered translations of more than one and a quarter million words very quickly, and the quality of the translations was at the highest level.”
Transcription
As part of the BBC’s digitisation of historically and culturally important footage and programming, we were asked to transcribe over 2000 hours of archive material. Knockhundred’s team of professionals successfully completed the work in 3 months. We were apparently “a joy” to work with. Thank you BBC – we also found the material fascinating!
Telephone interpreting
Knockhundred recently welcomed a national healthcare provider into the fold. Because of the nature of their work, they needed to ensure fast access to telephone interpreters for their staff based around the country 24/7, 365 days of the year. Having passed all the General Data Protection Regulation tests, we are delighted they chose us!
Brand checking
As part of an advertising campaign, our client asked us to analyse 10 different images to check for cultural appropriateness across a number of Arabic-speaking countries. We were able to produce in-depth reports to the advertising agency so they could make informed choices.
On-site simultaneous and consecutive interpreting
We were thrilled to be asked to take care of the interpreting arrangements for the poshest and most beautiful wedding ever! Two families and their friends were able to come together for the most magical day with our discreet (and beautifully dressed) interpreting team on hand.

Hungarian Subtitling: Exploring the Cultural Preference for Dubbing

In the realm of cinema preferences, Hungary stands out for its enduring love affair with dubbed films. Despite the rise of subtitling in other European countries, Hungarians overwhelmingly prefer the comfort of hearing their native language resonate through the speakers.

I am writing to say a huge thank you for providing us with two fantastic BSL interpreters. They were both able to deal with the emotional, scientific and medical content as well as the various presenting styles to the high professional standard that we had hoped for.
