Hello Everyone,
I have done a bit of Spanish subtitling using the Universal Subtitles format. I would like to have the opportunity to participate or work in some Spanish/English subtitling projects but I don't know where I would be able to do this with such little experience.
Thank you.

A tip for Esther re entering subtitling area Jan 18, 2012

Dear Esther,

You could try Deluxe Digital Studios for the sake of experience. They seem always to be recruiting. I am doing freelance English>Swedish subtitling jobs for them. It's fun and varied but not particularly well paid.

I am trying to find French>Swedish subtitling opportunities, any tips?

Best, Eva

I find myself in the same situation [EN>Portuguese(European)] Jan 18, 2012

Dear Esther,

I find myself in the same situation as you, although in different language pairs. I did some subtitling for a company in 2006-2007 and never had the opportunity to work in subtitling again. The project ended and the company never contacted me for other projects. Them I had the opportunity to enter the world of literary translation and never again did subtitling. Now I would like to start subtitling again but I don't know how.



Well, maybe you should... See more

Well, maybe you should look for subtitling jobs here at Proz. I think it could be a good start. I've seen a couple of them, but unfortunately I can't apply for Brazilian Portuguese.



All the best,
