Norwegian subtitles for ‘Giants of Leadership’ training film
Case Study
Muddy Boots Productions required Norwegian subtitles for their training film ‘Giants of Leadership’. This short excerpt from the film shows how Elephant’s lead their herd.
Matinée has been providing subtitling services to Muddy Boots Productions for many years and we’ve already produced subtitles for this film in many other languages. Using our existing English subtitle transcript, we translated to Norwegian and condensed for subtitle use. Once approved, the Norwegian subtitles were burnt-in to MOV.

A short history of the Norwegian language
The Norwegian language is a North-Germanic language like Danish and Swedish. It is spoken by 5 million people in Norway, but it can also be heard in Denmark, Sweden, Spain, the UK, Canada and the United States.
The language began with Viking traders who spoke Old Norse, a language that was used throughout the Scandinavian countries. Old Norse eventually broke up into eastern and western Norse. The Norwegian language was part of Western Norse.
The language changed again from 1536 when Norway was ruled by Denmark and Danish was gradually adopted by literate Norwegian people. When Denmark ceased to rule Norway in 1814 many people by then spoke Danish as their mother tongue.
Eventually a movement developed for the creation of a new Norwegian language and a language called Landsmal was created. It was based on regional dialects. Later another language was introduced called Riksmal, which was a written language and similar to Danish.
Today Norwegian children are taught both languages, but they make the choice of one or the other as a main language. Government bodies are expected to speak both.

Matinée Subtitling Montage
This video montage features a variety of subtitling projects we have completed in a number of languages. It also shows four different ways in which the captions can be displayed on screen.
Choosing the best way to display your subtitles on-screen will depend on your video content, and how much information you need to show in the captions area. When you send us your video, the first thing we’ll do is review the content, and advise which subtitle style we think will work best for your production.
However, if you have another captions style you prefer, perhaps to match a template you have used before, then we’ll work with whatever you feel works best for your video.

Friendly and efficient service
The speed of response, and friendly, efficient service from all staff was quite exceptional. Matinee particularly stands out by putting the customer’s needs first, even when the job is relatively small and a bit of a technical challenge. I would strongly recommend Matinee for any subtitling work.
