Chinese Cantonese voice-over for Google Science Fair Competition
Case Study
The Google Science Fair is a competition open to student’s aged 13 to 18 and attracts entries from all over the world. It is designed to encourage students to consider how they could improve the world around them by using their science or engineering skills.
In 2012 we were asked to localise the competition’s promo video into a number of languages. including Chinese Cantonese. We provided the client with a number of casting suggestions, and Maisy was selected for the role. We recorded her in our Reading studio, time-sync to the English video.It’s a neat animation, and Maisy does an excellent job which helps maintain the interest of the audience.

A short history of the Chinese Cantonese language
Cantonese is the language that is used for politics, business and media in these places. Written Cantonese appeared in the 17th century and there are two ways of reading it; formally and colloquially. The formal version is very similar to standard Chinese, or Mandarin.
Taishanese is a dialect which is very close to Cantonese and it is spoken by many of the Chinese who emigrated to North America in the late 19th century. The differences between Cantonese and the dialect Taishanese is mainly in the pronunciation. Cantonese is not generally taught in schools, for example children in Hong Kong are taught in Mandarin, or Putonghua as it is called.
People who can write in Chinese, can normally learn to write in Japanese more easily. This is because many of the characters have the same meaning.

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.
