TEMPLATES. iMediaTrans is targeted for the heavy-users of subtitling orcaptioning. Style template designer allows you to design your technicalrequirements like font, spacing, colors, positioning, etc. Project templatesare used to design workflows that are frequently used. Once thesetemplates are ready, placing orders for hundreds of episodes can be aseasy as a click.

INTEGRATED. iMediaTrans’s innovative subtitling tool adopts the world’smost advanced timecoding algorithm as well as a CDN driven videohosting service. Once you place your order, you can view how much orhow well your vendor is doing with a single click - in realtime. Once thefirst step of the workflow is done, it is passed on to the next vendorautomatically based on your workflow design. Once your project isdone, all you need to do is to save it to any industry-standard subtitlingor closed-captioning format you require. You can even pay your vendorswithin the platform.

SAVES COST. Those of you who have done subtitling before, know thatthere is a noticeable amount of admin work involved. iMediaTrans simplygets rid of this and allows a direct transaction between the client and thevendor. No more middle-mans. This saves your cost by over 30% and stillget better quality.

iMediaTrans is the world’s first fully integrated web-based subtitling andcaptioning platform developed and run by a 12 years+ global leadingsubtitling company i-Yuno Media Group.

WEB. iMediaTrans is a website you can access with your computer,laptop, iPads or even iPhones. Pretty much the functionalities are thesame across all operating systems and devices. Everything is on web andno need to install anything.

iMT LINK. iMediaTrans is where you meet clients or vendors (companiesor individuals). Our iMT Link keeps track of the quality feedbacks,reliability and gradings of each vendor and automatically or selectivelymatches them to the client with ease. You don’t need to check withcolleagues or other clients to reference a vendor’s quality anymore. Thefeedbacks and gradings on iMT Link are accurate and objective. Plus youcan access sample projects directly from the web, without even needingto call up for one.

Project Ordering on the WebSelect your favorite vendors or select a criteria for automatic matching. Enter the details of your project and upload your video. You can even upload multiple videos at once. You can design a workflow so that once a vendor is finished, your project automatically moves to the next vendor. for example, timecoding then translation then proofreading.

Then we will review your order - make sure your details are correct and the vendor you have chosen is valid for this project. This usually takes up to an hour.

Once your order is complete, now is the time for youto “control”.

Control on the WebSince everything is done on the web, you can access yourproject anytime and monitor how much your vendor has done - like using Google Docs in sharing mode.

Once a step of your workflow is finished, you can selectivelychoose to review before letting it pass to the next vendor. Your review is as simple as clicking a link from the email you receive on your iPhone or iPad. You can then watch your videowith subtitles or captions overlaid instantly - without even having to burn them in.

During the entire project you can intervene by leavinga comment on the project, which will notify the involved vendors on any changes or remarks.

Statistics of TrustThe most difficult part in choosing a subtitling orcaptioning vendor is - “can I trust these guys?”

So, can you trust “iMediaTrans?”. Yes.

While the references and results of an existing or newvendor are usually very subjective, the various indexeson iMT Link allows clients to search for vendorswithin their criteria with proven, scientific results anddata that are recorded in the system over a longperiod of time.

There is no bluffing in iMediaTrans. You can easilyknow what clients the vendor has been working for,how long and how experienced. You can even accesssample projects for a certain service with a click.

Managed ServiceAlthough the key idea of iMediaTrans is ‘directtransaction between the client and vendors’ and‘automatic matching of vendors without having to allocateeach of them to my hundreds of episodes’...

iMediaTrans’s 24/7 team is always on standby tocoordinate your projects - making sure your projectrequirements are valid, and the vendors are workingnormally to deliver on time.

If in the worst case your project has been given to avendor and he is not doing anything, the internalalarming system will instantly inform our team to lookinto the project. In such cases, we will match anotherreliable vendor for you or have our in-house teamdeliver your project at the right time & right quality.

Style Templates

DEFINEDefine video resolution, frame rates, safe-area

and even minimal frame splits between each

subtitle. Also define maximum number of

letters, minimum and maximum subtitle

durations and maximum number of lines - that

will minimize subtitling or captioning errors!

SIMPLIFYThe beauty of this template concept is that youcan selectively allow your vendors to have ornot have certain features - like ‘positioning thesubtitles/captions left, right or even upwards’ or‘selecting from a given set of colors’.

Giving them only the tools that are required inyour project minimizes the chances of technicalerrors and simplifies their work.

DESIGNDesign subtitles after placing a screenshot on

the background and typing a sample text.

Adjust the font, size, line/character spacing,

alignment and even colors!

MINIMIZEEach subtitling requirement has different

technical settings. iMediaTrans minimizes

technical errors by allowing the client to

selfdefine the technical requirements on

which then all of the client’s vendors will

base on throughout the project.

Check out our website atwww.iMediaTrans.com to see thelatest prices for subtitling,captioning and timecodingrequirements.

Please note that prices may changeaccording to vendors’ offerings andmarket demands.

QUALITY ASSURED

Remember. iMediaTrans is a directtransaction model - but managed.We coordinate to ensure yourquality is delivered.

SUBSCRIPTION MODELS

There are basically two ways to use iMediaTrans for frequent users.

Commission-based : If you use vendors listed in iMediaTrans, we charge you a certain percentage of the transaction price and manage/coordinate the service in between to ensure safe delivery with reliable quality. These projects are just charged the commissions and that’s it.

Project-based : If you have internal resources for a project and just require iMediaTrans as a tool for your subtitling project, you are not charged a commission but a node-based usage fee. for example, if you have timecoding, subtitling and proofreading - these will be 3 nodes. The node based charging means you only pay for how much you have used - plus it is very affordable!

These two models can be used in joint - thus you only pay commissions when you useiMediaTrans-listed vendors or just pay-per-use on internal usages. fair right?

for one-time users, iMediaTrans can be used at minimal cost. Please log on to the website andcheck our latest prices.
