Client checklists
We understand it can be intimidating when you approach a translation agency for the first time. That’s why we’ve created this set of checklists, so you know what you need to have ready.
Whether you’re planning a translation project, need help with interpreting, or planning a voiceover session, it helps to be prepared. When you contact us and know what you need, this helps us give you a faster, more accurate quotation. Enter the bullet-pointed client checklist.
These checklists can help you gather the information you need so we can quickly generate an accurate quote for your project.
Of course, we can also help if you’re not sure what you need. Get in touch and we can talk you through it.
Choose your checklist
Abridging and abstracting
Abridging and abstracting involves condensing, summarising and shortening your text to achieve a particular target length, using features such as Track Changes to indicate where the changes have been made.
Americanisation
They just speak English, right, with a few funny spellings? Well, almost, but not quite. You may need our Americanisation service.
Anglicisation
We offer Anglicisation to adapt an American, Canadian or Australian text for the British market.
Brand checking
Different countries and cultures, political leanings and societies will react differently to your branding and marketing messages. Ensure that they make sense, that they are ‘acceptable’ across the local spectrum, and that they will have the right impact with the right audience.
Business card translation
A business card is a gesture of courtesy. Having the appropriate information in the host language is an effective way to make that gesture positive. It’s a statement that the card giver has made an effort to show respect for the language and culture of the host country.
Consecutive interpreting
Clearly express yourself through an interpreter, understand what’s being said, and negotiate confidently throughout the global market.
Court Interpreting
All our court interpreters are highly experienced and skilled in this arena. We understand that at times sensitive information needs to be communicated, and vulnerable individuals may be involved in the process, which is why confidentiality and care are two primary considerations in our policies and processes.
Cultural insight services
This service involves reviewing and adapting text, branding, content, services or planned business developments to ensure they are culturally acceptable and will have the desired impact in the required context.
Global product launch
What do you need to get ready and check before launching a product across the world? Here’s your list.
Localisation and transcreation
If you’re planning to enter a new market, don’t leave your branding and marketing material impact to chance – our localisation and transcreation service will make sure that your message ‘translates’.
On demand interpreting
As the name suggests, our on demand interpreting is there when you need it. We help to make sure that language isn’t a barrier, giving you the confidence to negotiate in a global market or speak with a doctor. Whatever the situation, On Demand Interpreting services can help!
Proofreading
We strongly recommend proofreading for all material destined for publication, internal and external, just as you would expect with any material produced in English.
Simultaneous interpreting
Simultaneous interpreting is used for multilingual meetings and conferences. It requires microphones, headphones and soundproof booths, as well as highly skilled interpreters who work in rotation.
Subtitling
At Atlas Translations, we can provide subtitling in over 175 languages. We use only the most experienced, expert translators/subtitling professionals, each a native speaker.
Transcription (audio to text)
We work with media and marketing companies, legal firms and many others to transcribe – or transcribe and translate – police interviews, conference speeches, financial seminars, and much more.
Translation
All our translators are experienced, qualified linguists and they come highly recommended, but that isn’t enough: we always select a translator who is an expert in the specific field.
Typesetting
Our design and typesetting service blends language skills with precise text formation and layout vision to ensure optimum legibility and make the text more appealing.
Voiceover
Atlas Translations has a large database of qualified and experienced voice artists specialising in a wide variety of subject matter and offering a range of languages.
Website translation
We have been trusted by many global companies to translate their website content, assisting in their mission to appeal to new markets.
Whispered interpreting
Whispered interpreting is precisely what it sounds like. The interpreter whispers the translation into the listener’s ear, ensuring that language is not a barrier to their understanding whilst remaining discreet and avoiding interrupting the proceedings.
