I cooperate with some translation agencies, hence I have some experiences with various unsorted documents mostly user's manuals and guides to various appliances, but also to hardware or software applications the IT field is not strange to me.
I must say that I do very well regarding consecutive or simultaneous interpreting.
Try and convict me from lying
Annually I participate in the International Film Festival for Children and Youth (http://www.zlinfest.cz/en/) where I do simultaneous voiceovers (from English subtitles into Czech) without any complaints. There was some interpreting at star guest's interviews, too (Michael York, for example).
Recently (last four years) I cooperate (in terms of subtitling) with the Summer Film School in Uherské Hradi tě (http://lfs.cz/index.php?lang=eng), where one can meet some very interesting persons from the movie industry, and occasionally with the new multiplex in our city (http://goldenapple.cz/) with subtitles to various hot events, like the IRON MAIDEN: FLIGHT 666 , to which I had to make subtitles without actually seeing the movie (because of the time lock due to copyright laws), just with 5 or so omissions .
I should stress that I can cope with various subtitles formats thanks to trial and error method I have developed some secret skills for making all translations in MS Word for utilizing all the benefits of Word, and then converting the final text into any given format with timecodes or without it.
Have some experiences with translating videogames manuals and walkthroughs; namely: Medal of Honor; Desperados, Soldier of Fortune; furthermore the Farm Frenzy localization and some mobile stuff.
Further, again without complaints, I interpreted two week's training courses in Czech company Osram by American lectors), or recently, some schooling for KFC's and Pizza Hut's employees.
I don't mind business traveling, but don't seek it primarily.
That would be it Maybe you noticed the lack of mention of any education or diplomas or Yes, that is true don't have nothing in written, what can prove my abilities with; nevertheless I do it for living for 13 years, so it must be satisfactory
