Are you in the same situation? Or is only the German entertaining market sleeping?

Warmly,
Regina

Subtitling market May 16, 2023

Hi Regina,

I would recommend to keep on looking for other clients, not only in Germany, as nowadays even a company from Turkey, Canada or Japan could require your services. In my case, 17 years ago I finished a Master in Subtitling and Audiodescription, I subtitled some videos but since I have been translating all this time legal, humanistic and medical texts and I had not kept on subtitling, now I cannot apply for jobs because no one wants me. Of course, it is not your case, but I can assure you, there is a whole world out there.

Best wishes and I hope you find more clients.

I haven't noticed that. I'm working every day in subtitling, from English to French.

@Yeray. Why did you choose to mention these clients?

Do you work fulltime or part time?

As there are some job offers sometimes, but when I fill the forms out, that I am only partially available, they mostly prefer fulltime translator.
