Access Services operates in the broadcast environment, providing a service 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Live subtitles are produced primarily using voice recognition software and a process called ‘re-speaking’ which involves subtitlers repeating words/dialogue, whilst additionally voicing in punctuation and other commands.
Red Bee Media’s live subtitling output includes national and regional news, live sport and high-profile events such as Wimbledon and Prime Minister’s Question Time.

**What you will do**
- Pre-recorded subtitles are time-coded to ensure subtitles match the audio track and are produced ahead of broadcast using a variety of processes. Subtitlers need to consider factors such as reading speeds, descriptive labels and how best to convey the flavour and feel of a programme.
