Many questions may arise when organizations or businesses –
Catholic or otherwise – plan outreach to multilingual audiences. Here are just
a few examples of problems we have helped our clients to solve.
What
is the correct program to use for a full-color, diocesan brochure in
Vietnamese?
Is
a different platform required to publish Missal excerpts online in Polish?
Is it complicated to transfer a religious documentary into
Spanish, Russian and Portuguese?
What
is the best format to use for a bilingual children’s book, and who can help with
multilingual printing issues?
As the multimedia elements of your project grow in scope or
complexity, Come Alive Communications can provide the necessary expertise and
consultation your organization may be looking for.
Managing multilingual content can be a daunting task. Far beyond
translation or interpretation of a concept, manipulating content in numerous
languages for a singular goal is both an art and a science, one which requires
not only expertise and experience, but state-of-the-art machinery and software
as well.
Come Alive is a modern multimedia firm. We can help plot your project
from start to finish, leading you step by step through everything from consultation,
design and strategic planning to implementation and follow-up.
Whether your project is for print, video, the internet, CD-ROM or other
media, Come Alive’s Department of Multilingual
Multimedia works in conjunction with our Department of Translation and Editing
to help you deliver, educate or transmit via:
Internet... Come
Alive designs, implements, promotes and maintains
high-quality web sites and e-commerce sites for its clients, in one language or
in several.
Multilingual
Audio/Video… Come Alive provides
full-service video and audio production/dubbing in any language. Whether
producing a song or soundtrack from scratch, or walking through the numerous
elements of video production such as scripting, casting, directing and filming,
Come Alive’s trained artistic professionals are ready
to help. Using state-of-the-art digital editing and audiovisual technology, we
can help in the planning and recording of promotional ads, web movies, music
videos, documentaries and more. Voice-over, translation, foreign language
narration, subtitling or perfectly-timed dubbing are just a phone call, or an
email, away.
Desktop
Publishing... State-of-the-art
equipment and cutting-edge software guarantee sharp, eye-catching output – the best
way to transmit a message or promote a service. Fliers, manuals, brochures, textbooks,
directories, advertisements and more can be designed according to preference in
any language. Or, our publishers, working in conjunction with our Department of
Translation, can take our client’s already-published files in the source language
and transfer them to any target language required. With our "Digital
Client Preview" system, clients can preview comps or potential drafts of
their project right from our website, without the hassle of opening file
attachments or the expense and delay of overnight courier services. From
concept to copy, Come Alive digitizes the entire process in accordance with our
client’s comfort level, and can help bring their important messages to life.
Graphic
Design... Whether a client needs a
brochure for an upcoming event, or simply lacks the right photos or artwork to publish
the Korean version of a webpage, Come Alive’s skilled
graphic designers, photographers, and digital photo and art libraries can be a
simple solution. Our clients approach us from all directions – with
well-defined ideas to simple concepts jotted down from meeting notes – and we
work to help them achieve their goal, outputting to any digital or traditional
medium (e.g., print, film or web). With Come Alive’s "Digital Client Preview" system, clients can follow the whole creative
process via our website and make suggestions or changes just as if they were
right in our office.
Interactive
Presentations/Podcasts… In
one language or in several, interactive presentations and Podcasts are fast becoming the custom-built vehicles that are allowing single
individuals and large organizations to customize their messages for a target
audience.
Word for word, idea for idea, your message is safe in our
hands. |
