Yes, but are they going to fix it in all the Spanish subtitle files?

Loving how everyone seems to be talking about #subtitles at the moment. Also want to know who subtitled to Kill a Mockingbird though… theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Great questions - loved the one about whether there’s a subtitlers’ “dialect” - standard terminology for how to describe sounds. Great answer too.
And on subtitling of taboo language.
Well worth a listen.

Harrowing words from a senior emergency medicine doctor showing the despair at not being able to provide the level of care every doctor hopes to for their patients. Every doctor, nurse & HCW can empathise with this right now.

Exactly. If it’s a regionalism / dialect (eg. I were, we was) I’d go verbatim. If it’s just a mispronunciation, I’d probably correct it and prioritise info / ease of reading. If it’s a mistake that carries meaning, I might use quotes. Sorry - “it depends” isn’t too helpful….
It was great to finally see a presentation delivered in sign language at #LAM22
Lesley McGilp explained how @RedBeeMedia have been training Deaf interpreters in Europe to deliver live interpreting as part of the #DeafMedia Erasmus + project #BSL #accessibility
Obviously I’m biased, but this presentation was definitely a conference highlight for me. Highly informative, entertaining, and delivered impeccably. Just like the AD our amazing team create for #NakedAttraction Well done, @mazzacampbell #LAM22
Magnificent melons, nut sacks that are the envy of squirrels... @mazzacampbell shares her experience @RedBeeMedia addressing the audience demands and improving the AD of nudity. #LAM22 @LMconference

When approached (on a VERY short deadline) to join this project, no one hesitated. Very proud of the Red Bee team - sharing their expertise with Deaf groups across Europe to promote interpreting as a profession for Deaf people. #DeafMedia #accessibility redbeemedia.com/blog/red-bee…
