Hello, folks!

As some of you folks know, I do the English language subtitling here at Accursed Farms.

It's tedious work, but I enjoy it, so I had this radical idea about possibly turning this into a paid gig; getting paid to subtitle people's videos, which includes transcribing and timing. It would be freelance work where I would take a video and charge perhaps by the minute of video; I wouldn't want to be actually hired by a captioning company (at least, not yet). Perhaps I could listen to a sample of the video that someone wants to have captions written for and I could contact that person to negotiate terms.

Just wanted to ask you guys what you think of me doing something like this? Was wondering if you had any pointers or ideas about what to charge (a website I found said US$12 per minute of video for transcribing but I'm not sure if that's the going rate or what) or if you had a website that I could look at for more information.

Whaddya think?

At first, I didn't really care for the vortigaunt character in CP. But he's grown on me.

Vortigaunt: Aw hell...

Still wouldn't help against things like Miley Cyrus' twerking.

Mount a 3D camera to the googles and now you can have 3D vision while wearing the goggles.

Do you know who this is?

Actually, phelgm spelled backwards is mglehp.

Please make sure that you proofread the subtitles. I cannot understand Italian so I won't know if what you're typing is accurate or not. I can only go by where sentences and breaks in the speaking happen to make sure that they're timed correctly.

Thanks again!

Please do!

Of course, now I wish Gordon Freeman gained a sword weapon in the game.

Wow, the "daniel" directory like listening to Freeman in this game.

I disagree.

I will be collecting the subtitles (thanks for what you've sent me so far!) and checking them against the videos I've downloaded for timing. Of course, I cannot understand languages other than English. Languages that are somewhat similar to English (French, Spanish, German, etc) are a bit easier to at least make some sort of sense out of so for languages like Turkish, I'm going to have to make my best judgment in relation to where specific sentences end. I will assume that, if the breaks in the speaking match with the breaks in the subtitles, they are timed correctly. I will not be able to check for things such as typos or grammatical errors.

After I check the subtitles' timing, I will compile them into one ZIP file and send them off to Ross for adding to the videos. I should be able to get to the subtitle files I have received from you, Judas, as well as the other subtitles I received soon. Please continue to send me whatever subtitles you have.

Even in the United States.

I have uploaded a subtitle pack for all the other non-Freeman's Mind videos on this website. [ur=lhttp://www.accursedfarms.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=30&p=197880]Check it out![/url]

I am now offering the other non-Freeman's Mind subtitle files in a single ZIP file. This includes all the Civil Protection episodes to date as well as subtitles for Galaxy Gulp, Stranger in Need, and the other videos on this website.

Danielsangeo, As always, I hope you will do your excellent subtitles for that excellent episode!)

I'm working on them. I have this episode all typed up; I just have to sync them now with the video and make sure they're all prettied up for the release.

Please note: I am starting the next 12-week course at my online school starting, well, tonight actually, and if any more videos come out during this timespan, subtitles may be delayed, but don't worry, I will work on them as soon as I can get to them. I may also be going back to work very soon so that might further delay subtitles. Please have patience.

Also, further note: I will be releasing a subtitle pack for the rest of the Accursed Farms videos (including the Civil Protection episodes) today... probably after I finish with this episode.

What do you load that with? The string-theory strings?

Yes.
