Most fun translating German… ever? Interview w/German 2-man bob team for CNN

leave a comment »

Translating the interview with these two characters was great fun – there were a lot of laughs! I’m not sure how many of them come across in the video, but you do have to make some compromises with the subtitles. Spent a very enjoyable day sitting in with the editor for this piece and getting the subtitles pitch perfect.

I produced this shoot for CNNI’s business show Marketplace Europe – did lots of background research on Hertz for reporter Jim Boulden, accompanied the camera crew down to Heathrow and so on.

Interview with President of BT Global Services

I conducted background research for reporter Max Foster for this interview and accompanied him up the BT Tower for the shoot – quite the opportunity since the Tower isn’t open to the public! Great views of London that you won’t get anywhere else (and the interview is pretty interesting too).
