We are a fast-growing French company that creates online photography courses. Before December 2020, we want to launch 4 online photography masterclasses given by the greatest photographers in the world : Joel Meyerowitz (34 lessons over 5 hours), Steve McCurry (25 lessons over 4 hours), Albert Watson (54 lessons over 6.5 hours) and David Yarrow (58 lessons over 7.5 hours). Those Masterclasses are originally in English.
We are looking for 4 professional translators from English to French to translate online courses about photography.
-- Process --
1. We will pick up several candidates and give them 1 extract from the course to translate from English to French (+/- 1125 words – script and video will be provided). All of these candidates will be paid for this translation
2. We will pick the best translators, and, if we need it, a second job will be given to them
3. The BEST ONES will work for us on translating the whole Masterclass (4 to 7.5 hours of content / 1 translator per Masterclass)
-- Important --
1. We are looking for quality and really good translators, having French as a native language
2. The deadline is quite short so we need someone who is available enough in the coming months to translate a whole Masterclass
3. We know a good translator comes at a price, and we are ready to pay for it. Once we get into this partnership, we hope we can discuss a good price for you and for us for the entire Masterclass, as we will give you a good amount of work (Spoiler : other masterclasses are coming in 2021 so successful completion of this project could lead to future projects :) )
4. Knowing something about photography is a significant help, as there is some technical vocabulary, and the only way to get a really good translation is to understand what's said. You don't have to be a professional photographer, but knowing your way around photography is definitely better. Alternative : being a quick learner ;)
-- Deadline --
If you match our expectations and you would like to work with us, please revert to us by the end of this week, August 22 :)
Don’t forget to mention if you are available enough to work on this and also give us an estimate of how many hours it would take you to translate 4 hours of video content. This will help us to plan accordingly as the deadline is really short.
Thank you, Elodie - LBR Editions
PS :… et vous pouvez répondre à l’annonce en français bien sûr ;)
