Screens.TV speaks your language!
Posted by Nobby
How many times have you seen an awkwardly dubbed European language or Asian language movie and was surprised by how easy dialogues were translated into complex sentences and sometimes even conveyed an awkward meaning if not wrong! I guess the answer would be a plenty? Yes, that was my answer to that question when I started learning on the Internet on how content is dubbed to suit local audiences.
These days....Where every entertainment channel is moving towards "globalization" - where content is created once in one language and professional dubbers are invited to dub them to reach global audiences, the demand for quality in dubbing is ever increasing. Personally, I've really wondered where do these channels do their dubbing.
Here's a nice infographic that depicts trivia about the ups of good dubbing and downs of bad dubbing:
The answer to my questions and wondering was done by Screens.tv website and the company has the apt tagline "we speak your language". With over 25 years in dubbing and adding new languages always to their professional dubbing and voice over team, they are always in business! When I looked at their clientèle, I was amazed by the number of satellite channels that are in every major language spoken in our globe! Not only dubbing and voice overs - they also provide Subtitling, Translation, Media Processing, Content Distribution and Creative services to those media companies or people who need them. All these in one place is a big achievement I'd say. The entertainment and media industry must be thankful to Screens.tv for all these services which help in globalizing and localizing content to suit the needs of the people around us for they truly speak our language!

Scriptapalooza Fellowship
Posted by Nobby
Scriptapalooza is proud to announce the Scriptapalooza Fellowship
The Scriptapalooza Fellowship program was developed to honor dedicated writers and to help accommodate their creative process and skills. Creativity has many interruptions; most of them legitimate reasons, such as dealing with life. Isolating yourself from all of your demands is not an easy task. “This new fellowship will give its recipient the opportunity to focus solely on his/her writing by removing the writer from his/her daily commitments and providing a supportive environment,” says Mark Andrushko, founder of Scriptapalooza Screenwriting Competition, which has been promoting and discovering writers since 1998.

The Scriptapalooza Fellowship recipient will be awarded a five-day screenwriting retreat in Costa Rica with Award-Winning Screenwriter Jacob Krueger. The retreat takes place June 10-14, 2016 in Samara, Costa Rica, in a private hotel reserved exclusively for the fellowship recipient and twelve other talented writers. The winning fellowship recipient will enjoy a full curriculum of writing classes, discussions, workshops and feedback sessions taught by Jacob Krueger and senior members of the JK Studio Staff. Each retreat will offer a unique program created specifically for the needs of the writers attending.
The Scriptapalooza Fellowship recipient will receive six months of mentoring from one of our vastly talented industry mentors. The list includes Janet Jeffries of Lawrence Bender Productions, Amanda Marshall of Cold Iron Pictures, Alexia Melocchi of Little Studio Films, Rob Margolies of Different Duck Films, Katrina Nahikian of Bullet Heart, and Breven Warren of Angaelica.
Five additional writers will receive an online writing course, $1000, and a three-month mentorship from one of the above industry professionals. Everyone who applies will receive four to five pages of feedback.
Fellowship applications will only be available from Sept. 1, 2015 to Oct 31, 2015. For more information, visit http://www.scriptapalooza.com/fellowship/
Helping as many writers as possible has always been the foundation and heart of Scriptapalooza, and this mission will be furthered with the Fellowship.
