MEDIA TRANSCRIPTION SERVICES
Media transcription involves the verbatim transcription of video or audio tape recordings (video transcription and audio transcription), as well as digital recordings (digital transcription of WAV, AU, MP3, MP4, DSS files, etc). Media transcription is the process of transcription that produces the transcribed copies announced at the end of radio talk shows, or noted on the screen at the end of TV programs. Transcription companies often prepare this type of media transcript before the shows are broadcast to the public.
Media transcription is not limited to the straightforward transcribing of the spoken word into text to produce transcribed copies of news stories, special reports, conference proceedings (conference transcripts) and other media situations. Other processes included in the process of media transcription are:
- Time-coding/Time-stamping service (time-wise transcription): the transcribed material (verbatim transcripts or abridged transcripts) is encoded with a time code to indicate its exact position (time-wise) in the source material.
- Captioning: used mainly for the benefit of audiences with hearing disabilities. In addition to simple verbatim transcription of dialogue, transcription companies must also identify speakers and describe other non-visual data in their transcripts. Sounds that are not human speech may also need to be explained. All this information is later added, in the form of subtitles, to the visual tape.
