A typical subtitling project from A–Z

Subtitling video generally involves a recurring set of steps. The list below walks you through a complete example workflow managed by a project manager using mainly manual tools and forms. This provides a good way of explaining the general steps, most of which are also involved when the project relies on automation/integration/APIs. 

    Creating the project

      Under Projects, using the advanced or simple form, a project manager creates a new project, typically specifying:

      • Source language
      • Target language(s)
      • Number of parts/episodes
        • and their individual specs, such as running times,time, part namename, etc
      • Project deadline
