$15-25 USD / hour

Needs to hire 4 Freelancers Background: I have a list of songs I need synchronized and translated, for my language-learning mobile app. Starting with the original lyrics of the song, you will have to synchronize each line with timestamps, so the words align with the audio. Then you have to translate those original lyrics from their native language into the other 3 languages listed above. Synchronize: as an example, let's take the song 'New Rules' by Dua Lipa. Let's look at the 1st line: "talking in my sleep at night, making myself crazy." Synchronizing this line with the audio means tracking the start time and end time of the line within the song (for instance, Start = 00:00:05,132 [aka, 5 seconds & 132 milliseconds] & End = 00:00:10,264 [aka, 10 seconds & 264 milliseconds). There are many softwares that make it easy for you to do this with every line of the song - a good example is Amara - [login to view URL] Translate: while oftentimes word-for-word translations work fine, we suggest translating for meaning instead (in cases where word-for-word translation does not capture the meaning); if the song provided is in English, then we expect translation into Spanish, German, and French. If it's a French song, however, we expect translation into English, Spanish, and German. This is what we mean when we say 'translated from native language into the other 3 languages listed above'. NOTE: "en" = English, "sp" = Spanish, "gr" = German, "fr" = French What We Provide: 1) MP3 file of song 2) Original lyrics of song What You Provide: 1) Synchronization of lyrics with audio (using software, like Amara) 2) Translation of lyrics from original language into the other 3 languages listed 3) Output as an .SRT format, with the EXACT format as the examples attached

Hello, As a native French speaker and translator, I'm interested by your whole project. Especially when I'm used to translate with timestamps for movies, k-dramas and conferences. Indeed, I'm a trilingual (French, English U.S. & U.K. and Spanish) translator since 6 years now. I usually translate movies, dramas, series, books, articles, manuals, reports, contracts, blogs, posts, websites, video games, apps, etc. With my experience, I'm quite quick, accurate and efficient at translating. As someone who already translated with timestamps and as a voiceover artist as well, be it songs, movies or videos, I know too well that word-by-word translation aren't appropriate. Meaning is the MOST important. I'm a HUMAN BEING so expect HIGH QUALITY content and not a robotic content. My job is a passion, so I'm not here to waste your time and money, even less mine. Up until now, there aren't any complaints about my work from my past projects. I even built some long-term partnership with a lot of them. They trusted me. You can check some comments on my profile if needed. Some of my clients are Microsoft, KPMJ, Google, Canadian Ambassy, French Navy & Army, Russian Navy, ORICO, A&K, Education Department of New York, UNICEF, Bose, Europcar Mobility Group, Etsy, etc. If you are interested or need more information, feel free to contact me. Have a nice day ! Best regards, Mlle Chirley G.

I'd love being a part of your project. I believe this is a very effective method to learn a new language (this is how I started to learn English in the first place when I was younger). I am a native Spanish speaker and I can translate to or from English. I am very detail oriented, which makes me a great candidate for this type of task, Thank you for your consideration.

"fr" Dear Sir, Madam, My name is Gilles and I am a native French speaker from Switzerland, currently working as a French teacher in Tanzania. Aside from my teaching job, I write, translate and proofread various documents and I am really interested in collaborating on your song translation and synchronisation project. I am familiar with the Amara Software and, prior to my teaching job, I worked as a sound engineer and part of my job was to edit sound and video. I am reliable, on time and deliver high quality translation, free of spelling or grammar mistakes. I would be glad to see a sample of the song you need to be translated/synchronised and look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Gilles Tendon

Hello, I think I am the most qualified person for the job. I am native French but I was raised in the US. I have been a professional freelance translator for more than 15 years. I work really fast and my work is always impeccable and flawless. I have also been a professional singer/songwriter for more than 20 years, and I often work with songwriters to translate and adapt their lyrics from English to French or vice versa, so I think your project would be a perfect fit for my experience. Write me a message if you would like me to send you my resumes so that you can have a better idea of how much experience I have. Cheers, Karine
