The accuracy of the script is critical
Nearly every element in the Localization workflow can be traced back to a script. Subtitling and Foreign Language Dubbing, their origins are likely the As-Broadcast Script or the Dialogue List. Audio Description relies entirely on a well-written, perfectly timed VO Script. The script comes first, so 100% accuracy from the very beginning is vital. When it comes to transcription, audio fidelity, timing, and adherence to industry standards, you can trust SS Descriptors to deliver pristine quality each time, every time. That’s not just a promise, it’s a guarantee.
I have produced audio description and post-production scripts for just about every studio and production company in the industry, on some of the absolute coolest titles. I'm thrilled to continue this work with SS Descriptors.
