On-line or in situ subtitling course? Thread poster: Jeanette Anderson

I have been looking into different subtitling courses (not a masters or post grad) and I have only come across 2 that really look like they might be worth while, however I wanted to see if anyone had taken these courses and had any feedback or other recommendations.

See more I have been looking into different subtitling courses (not a masters or post grad) and I have only come across 2 that really look like they might be worth while, however I wanted to see if anyone had taken these courses and had any feedback or other recommendations. The on-line course I found is at: www.subtitlingworldwide.com They actually offer 2 courses: -One is a 3 month course (Comprehensive Subtitling Course) using the software Spot -The other is a 3-5 week course (The Template-making course) using Subtitle workshop Both of which look like they could be quite useful, but having never done subtitling, it's always hard to tell... The in situ course that I found is offered in Berlin (and a few other German cities, I believe) and it is an intensive 1-2 week course at Titel Bild Subtitling and Translation company. http://titelbild.com/en/courses.html Now, there is a huge price difference between the two (€300 - €1750) and I am wondering which one will actually be better in the long run. Has anyone done either of these courses? Or a different course that they would recommend? Thanks in advance. -Jeanette ▲ Collapse | | |
I think I'll take the online course | Feb 23, 2009 |
Those seem pretty interesting. I think I'm going to enroll in the online course. Today I've been researching for such subtitling courses, and there seems to be a shortage of offers. I found those two options too. Have you found any other course, or have you already enrolled in any one? Luis Mondragon | | |

For further information go to: http://www.subtitlingworldwide.com/outlineComprehensiveSubtitlingCourseSpotSoftware.html Here's also a list of training courses conducted by members of the ESIST. One of them is Bartho Kriek, by the way. http://www.esist.org/training.html I think, I am going to enroll. Titelbild is renowned for their professionalism, and they have major clients. I know of some subtitlers who have undertaken the course and who were very satisfied with the results. It's a tough decision, but I'd rather go for the online course at present. | |

Hello! I was looking for information about the "subtitling worldwide" online course so I found this forum. Some months already passed from the last post and maybe some of you already enrolled in this course and finished it. If so, I would really appreciate if some of you could leave some comments/ feedback so I can better evaluate if enroll or not. Thank you very much, Ada | | |

But I'm interested in enrolling in the online program as well and was wondering if anyone did actually end up taking it and their thoughts on it. Thanks. | | |

Still considering the options... | Mar 26, 2014 |
Hi Natalie!, I haven´t decided yet which course to take... I am between TsEdi and SubtitlingWorld. Still waiting for some advice, feedback!, mainly to know if these are recognized institutions within translators comunity. I probably won´t enroll until July, so if you find any useful information in the meantime please let me know. I will keep you posted as well! Good luck! Inés | | |
