Subtitling (Intern)

2 weeks ago


London, United Kingdom Ericsson Full time

The Channel 4 Access Services Internships, developed in collaboration with Red Bee Media, a leading international broadcasting and media services company and the largest access services provider in Europe, present an exciting opportunity for entry-level individuals with a passion for television and a desire to help ensure it is accessible to all.

In alignment with the Paralympics scheduled for 2024, we are proud to announce 12-month paid placements in subtitling, audio description scripting, and working as a signing assistant, commencing in April 2024. As an intern, you will undergo comprehensive training, and no prior work experience or specific qualifications are necessary; we seek individuals with a genuine love for television and boundless enthusiasm.

Applicants must be 18 years or older at the scheme's commencement in April 2024. There is no upper age limit.

The scheme strives to offer opportunities to those currently underrepresented in the TV industry, so we are particularly keen to hear from Deaf and/or disabled people, ethnically diverse people and people from lower socio-economic groups.

**About this opportunity**:
The Subtitler Intern will undertake a 3-month placement at Red Bee Media, before transitioning to a Channel 4 office to support one of the broadcaster’s internal teams. While the time spent at Red Bee Media can be done from anywhere, the Channel 4 portion of the internship will require approximately 3 days per week in either the Leeds or London office of Channel 4.

Red Bee Media’s Access Services teams operate in the broadcast environment, providing a service 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The Subtitler Intern will generally work office hours, though there may additionally be some early morning, evening and weekend work required.

This role would be ideally suited to applicants with strong language and communication skills, and an interest in the media.

**What you will do**:
Subtitlers provide live and pre-recorded subtitles for a wide range of television output in a way that conveys the intentions and information of the original to viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing.

Pre-recorded subtitles are time-coded to ensure subtitles match the audio track, and are produced using a variety of processes, including respeaking, where subtitlers repeat words as well as speaking punctuation and other commands to translate speech to text. In addition to the words themselves, file subtitlers need to consider such factors as reading speeds, descriptive labels and how best to convey the flavour and feel of a programme.

**You will bring**:

- An excellent standard of written English, including spelling, grammar and meticulous attention to detail.
- Ability to proofread, review and correct own work as well as text and scripts created by others to ensure 100% accuracy.
- Able to edit written text or soundtrack into clear, easy-to-read subtitles which retain the full sense and flavour of the programme.
- Experience of using proofreading and editing skills.
- Willingness to quickly learn and adapt to new technologies, processes and react positively to change.
- Able to remain calm, think quickly and make good editorial decisions.
- An awareness of, and interest in, the work of Red Bee Media, its Access Services team, and Channel 4.
