Audio transcription services basically involve converting audio clips into text, and these services are often a necessary element in producing any multilingual audio or visual content. Once the audio has been transcribed and converted into text, it can be displayed directly as a written explanation of the broadcast content—to assist the hard of hearing, or as a tool for those who cannot understand the audio version of the source language, or for those who prefer to see the dialogue in the source language.

These written materials can also be used as a basis for subsequent translations into different languages. At Translation Arena, we have dedicated, specialized teams for transcribing audio content and converting it into text that can be used in the post-production and final translation process.
