Bio
I am a German subtitler, translator and author with broad experience in creative writing, media and television. My source languages are French, English and Italian.

I use the subtitling software Swift and can deliver subtitle files in various formats. I do provide time-cued / spotted files, but am also used to working with templates.

Through production companies and agencies, I subtitle French, English and Italian television programmes for TV5 Monde, Arte, MTV and other channels into German. In addition, I am familiar with SDH-subtitling and provide subtitles for ORF and Swiss Teletext.

I have also been working with independent film productions and I do have experience with subtitling corporate videos.



I do provide subtitles (foreign language and SDH) for the following TV formats:

• feature films, TV-series, documentaries, lifestyle magazines, current affair magazines, corporate videos

I translate:

• voice-over scripts, advertising campaigns, marketing and business texts
