Why so many trusted us
As a translation agency with many years of experience, we offer the service of distributing subtitles across the time of the video in accordance with the accepted principles of translating video content. When creating subtitles, we follow Netflix's guidelines.
Creating subtitles and dubbing for feature films, commercials or documentaries, requires that the translator possess professional knowledge, understanding of, among others, the cultural, political or historical context. Vocabulary, as well as humour, must be understandable to the viewer and adapted to the subject matter of the film.
In addition, subtitles should be distributed properly, and, in the case of dubbing, the pace of reading and the cadence of the target language should be in harmony with the scene in the film. Such translations require a lot of patience and commitment.
Our clients have been entrusting us with translations of audio and video content for many years. Why? Our translators are required to possess specialist knowledge and be familiar with the cultural context, which guarantees that the essence of the recording's message is going to be preserved.
As a standard, we create subtitles according to generally accepted rules:
– the length of the line does not exceed 42 characters,
– the subtitle has no more than 2 lines,
– the reading speed does not exceed 17 characters/sec.
We guarantee

Adding subtitles to an online film
It should be noted that adding subtitles to films is very different from translating documents. When translating subtitles for a film, it should be kept in mind that the viewer must be able to read and follow the displayed subtitles easily. Translated subtitles for films must be concise and easily convey the meaning.
How to create subtitles for a film?
Below, we have prepared a list of guidelines that ought to be followed when creating subtitles for films.
- To ensure that subtitles can be read easily, they should not contain too many characters in one line. The limit of characters in subtitles is usually determined before the process of translating subtitles starts.
- A translator of subtitles also has to remember that people usually speak faster than they read, which is why only information that is the most important for the plot is included in subtitles.
- The subtitles must match the image displayed on the screen. The subtitles cannot be displayed for longer than a few seconds. When there is a longer pause between moments when the characters in the film speak, subtitles should not be displayed at all.
- If the entire text does not fit into one line, the translator divides the subtitles into two lines, so that the text is still grammatically correct and, therefore, easily readable. Typically, subtitles are divided into lines after punctuation marks or before words such as: because, as, or etc.
- A translation of subtitles for a film should consist of short and simple words (e.g. the phrase “is located in” gets replaced by “is in”).
Creating subtitles for films Price list
Translations of subtitles for films are diverse in terms of their topics, hence, their pricing is quite complicated. The price is influenced by factors such as the level of difficulty, the length of breaks during which nothing is being said and the client’s guidelines, including the accuracy of distributing subtitles across the time of the film.
