INTRODUCTION

• We always find a particular culture most
  appealing to us.
• It can be the way they dress, the food they
  consume, the working culture they follow, and
  much more.
• Though we get enough information from books and
  other sources, nothing compares to seeing
  everything on a video. Videos are a great way to
  understand a culture.
• A few minutes of video footage can tell you a lot
  about how people in that culture act.
• Let us look at the culture of Spanish people as
  more than a third of the worlds population
  speaks Spanish.
• This is nearly as many people as the entire
  European Union.

  to support the production team to encode the
  subtitles with ease.

  fillers, shutters, non-voice dialogues, music,
  and lyrics. Also, non-verbatim transcription is a
  clean, readable text that contains essential
  meaning behind the spoken statements (fillers are
  excluded).

  language editors audit the scripts. By the end of
  this audit, the transcripts are 99 accurate.
• The production team comes to light. They time
  code the subtitles, encode the scripts and the
  subtitles appear on the screen after decoding.
