Hello, Thank you for posting this subtitling opportunity. I specialize in Chinese-English subtitling and closed captioning, and I am proficient in using professional subtitling tools including Aegisub and DaVinci Resolve. I understand that accurate cultural adaptation is critical for Singaporean content. I have worked on numerous projects targeting Singaporean audiences and know how to adapt local expressions, Hokkien/Malay loanwords and cultural references naturally into English without losing their original meaning. I will deliver fully timed, error-free subtitles ready for immediate use, along with a separate text file for your reference. I am reliable, detail-oriented and looking for a stable long-term working relationship. Sincerely.

Hi, I am a professional Audiovisual Translator from Malaysia specialising in English–Chinese localisation, with over 8 years of experience and an MA in Translation.

Having grown up in Malaysia, I have a deep understanding of the shared cultural nuances, Singlish expressions, local slang, and contextual references of both Singapore and Malaysia.
