Transcriptions

KERN Global Language Services offers a professional transcription service to capture German or foreign-language audio or video material in writing. A transcription is the writing down of spoken texts and situations from audio and video recordings, which are available as audio CDs, DVDs, and MP3 files or other file formats, such as Wave. The variety of texts which need to be recorded in writing ranges from video conferences, telephone interviews as a data collection strategy in social research and interviews for films and television productions to series of lectures.

We require the following information from you:

  • In what format is the audio material available?
  • How many minutes/hours of audio material are there?
  • What kind of audio material is it (interviews, sections of presentations, etc.)?
  • What is the purpose of the transcription?
  • Do you have any particular formatting requests or transcription rules?
  • What file format is required for the transcribed text?
  • Do you require a translation after the transcription?
