How we work
How a project runs, step by step.
- 01Spotting
The video is divided into subtitles with in and out times. This is where it is decided whether the viewer will have time to read.
- 02Translation for the medium
A subtitle is an exercise in density: the subtitler conveys the meaning within the reading limits of the medium, without cramming spoken language onto the screen word for word.
- 03Check on playback
Subtitles are checked against the video (flow, synchronisation, shot changes), not only as text in a document.
- 04Deliverable in your workflow
A subtitle file (SRT and others) for your own platform, or a finished video with embedded subtitles or voice-over.
- 05Many languages, one base
Same source, shared timing, coordinated terminology. The language versions of a video do not drift apart.

Capabilities
Why EL-Translations.
Translation for the screen
Subtitles are an exercise in density: readability, timing, cultural adaptation. Our subtitlers work by the rules of the medium.
Full technical pipeline
Delivery in any format you need: subtitle files or embedded output, ready for platforms, screenings or internal use.
Contents
Voice-over for advertising, corporate video and e-learning
Voice-over includes script adaptation: the text is reworked to fit the timings of the video, to sound natural in the target language and to keep the brand's tone of voice.
We cover advertising spots, corporate presentations, documentaries and e-learning material, from translation and adaptation through to the final deliverable.
Who it is for
For production and advertising companies that need a reliable language partner inside their workflow; for marketing and HR teams localising video and e-learning across many markets; and for public bodies and organisations with accessibility requirements (SDH subtitling for the deaf and hard of hearing).
SDH: subtitling for the Deaf and hard of hearing
Subtitling for the Deaf and hard of hearing (SDH) also conveys what is not dialogue: who is speaking when they are off screen, sounds that drive the plot, music that changes the mood of a scene. It is a separate skill with its own rules.
For your own videos, that means accessibility as a production specification.
How an audiovisual project is priced
Three axes: the length of the video, the target languages, and the type of deliverable, that is, a subtitle file, embedding in the video, voice-over with script adaptation, or full dubbing. Series of videos with shared terminology (e-learning, corporate libraries) are priced as a whole, because consistency between episodes is part of the work.
Send us the material or its details (length, languages, use) and you will have a binding quote within one working day.
Infrastructure & Reliability
Three ISO standards, audited by TÜV Hellas.
Enterprise-grade translation needs know-how, infrastructure and accountability. We have already built them, so you do not have to.
Next milestones: ISO 9001 (quality) & ISO 27001 (information security), certification in progress.
