September 13, 2021
COVID-19 update – Matinée is operating business as usual with our team working remotely.
Subtitling Languages Selector
Matinée Multilingual – delivering outstanding value translation, voice recording and subtitling services from the UK, for over 30 years
Subtitles and captions in over 80 languages
Whatever language you require, Matinée Multilingual can assist with subtitles and captions of your video content. We can help with transcription, translation, subtitles, captions, and render out to any format and specification you require. Or we can just help with just the parts of the service that you need.
And you can choose which parts of the service you need. We work with many translation agencies who handle all the transcription and translations, but who need us to take care of the voice selection, recording sessions and final version video rendering.
Equally, we have many production company clients, who need us to help with translation and voice recordings, but they will then deal with all the video elements themselves.

Complementary Services to enhance your Foreign Language Recordings
Matinée also offers a range of complementary services to the recording of foreign language recordings. We can transcribe and time stamp the spoken word in your source video, whether English or another foreign language. Then we can organise the translation into the languages you require, using tried and tested mother-tongue translators. Once you have signed off the translation, we’ll organise casting and recording, whether wild or sync to picture.
Once the recordings have been completed, we can clean and edit the audio. Watch the short Explainer Video (link below) that details the process so you can understand the difference it makes to the finished production. We always include several quality checks, such as listening to the audio to check if errors have been made, and the pronunciation is correct. We also check the timings are right compared to the original, and that files are correctly split and named. And of course we remove overly long pauses and then normalise volume levels.
We can also assist with localising any on-screen text within the source video, and we can help with closed captioning services as well. Along with our BSL & Audio Description services, we’ll make sure your content is accessible to audiences anywhere, whether they are hearing or visually impaired.

Fantastic to work with
The team at Matinée are fantastic to work with. They are really communicative, helpful and turned around the work as quickly as possible. I have no complaints at all and we will definitely be getting back in contact when we next need subtitles.

The Big Word
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.
