Transcription Services

The television industry has one of the most complex pre-production and post-production processes in the entertainment space. Various moving parts must work in harmony for a show to be successful, and one tool that can help companies do just that is TV transcriptions.

Transcription makes TV programs more accessible to a wider range of audiences, and makes the editing process so much more efficient. Everyone who has tried transcribing audio and video files into text knows it’s a complicated process. To produce a high-quality transcription, you need special hardware, software, and, most especially, a distinct skill set learned through years of experience.

If you require general transcription services, Ditto Transcripts is here to help you. Our highly experienced professional team of US based transcribers will review your broadcastings, programs, shows, etc., and produce accurate transcripts that you can read, analyze, and use for all of your editing, closed caption, and publishing requirements.

Benefits of Television Transcription

The constantly evolving media landscape brought with it a change in how people consume media. Our timely and accurate audio transcription services can help you by:

Enabling you to repurpose content faster

Transcripts give producers quick access to all content from a show, allowing them to repurpose them into tweets, quotes for websites, Instagram captions, and the like. An accurate text file of your recordings will let you do all of this without having to watch the program yourself in order to gather the necessary details.

Increasing your online visibility

At this time, search engines can’t accurately crawl audio files or video content, but they can for text in captions and subtitles. This will boost your SEO efforts, improving your program’s online visibility and possibly expanding your viewership.

Posting transcriptions of your shows on the web will also give audiences a preview of the program without watching a single episode.

A vast majority of viewers now consume media on their mobile devices, which means that many prefer video content accessible on the go. Considering that you’re competing with millions of television shows, closed captions is an essential box to tick.

Providing a cost-effective transcription solution

We want to give every customer value for their money. That’s why we offer per-audio minute rates instead of charging per word to help you manage your post-production budget at the most affordable prices and without any surprises.

Improving the accessibility of your content

The FCC has enacted rules requiring closed captioning for broadcast television programs to make them accessible to hard-of-hearing individuals. The captions must be accurate and high-quality, cover the entire show, and be synced with the program.

Moreover, viewers who aren’t native English speakers may have trouble figuring out what a character with a heavy accent said. Captions will enable them to understand and appreciate your content better.

Expediting post-production processes

Having transcripts of your raw footage helps production houses catch details they might have missed and allow them to revisit scenes without playing the video repeatedly over and over.

Ditto Transcripts is transparent about how they operate and can show proof about every claim they make like insurance, security, and compliance. And my investigators were able to be out in the field instead of typing interview transcripts all day.
