Paid on delivery
We are looking for a meticulous person to help us fix various simple issues of orthography and typos in some very simple tags in 1000s of files of transcription. Firefox and a stylish text editor such as Notepad++ (Windows) or BBEdit (Mac) are all that's needed. The transcriptions are in various languages such as Chinese, Japanese, Malay, Indonesian, English, German and Portuguese among others but these fixes generally do not require knowledge of the target languages. The main skill set is focus, perfectionism, efficiency, dedication and the ability to work with a text editor.

GERMAN Hello! My name is Nina, I’m a professional native German translator and proofreader from Austria with more than 15 years of work experience. As you can see from my reviews and portfolio, I provide quality with attention to detail. Working as proofreader requires being meticulous, so I am used to hunting down commas where they don’t belong. However, I have a question regarding your project description: “These fixes generally do not require knowledge of the target languages.“ How would anyone be able to recognize a typo as a typo if they don’t speak the language? I certainly won’t find typos or spelling errors in Portuguese, so my bid is only for your transcriptions in German. Please feel free to get in touch, best regards, Nina

I have freelanced for Pixelogic and TVT as a localization officer, where I check the language and subtitles from films and short clips, from English subtitles to Indonesian subtitles. I am familiar with Netflix timing and am able to edit the videos as needed. I am also familiar with the subtitling and transcription tools needed for subtitling projects, such as Wavepad, EZ Titles and SDL Trados for translating.

Hi, I can proofread articles in English for you. I am 24 years old and I have studied and completed a degree in English at the Faculty of Arts in Ljubljana. My ambition is to work in the field of translation, proofreading and article writing and I hope that I can do that through Freelancer. Finding jobs is really hard on here though, because most job givers look for experienced workers, but at the same time it is really hard to find jobs. Even though I do not have much experience on Freelancer, I have plenty of experience in "real life". I can assure you that I will give my everything to keep the quality of my proofreading at the highest level possible.
