SA’s Top Language Services Company
Translations
At Folio, we thrive on the challenge of facilitating cross-cultural communication for our clients. For nearly three decades, we have delivered professional translation services, building experience, networks and systems along the way. Our language specialists are committed to providing top-quality and consistent translation services on time.
Transcription
Transcribing is a laborious task if you lack the necessary experience and equipment. Not only that, but it needs to be done in a quiet environment without too many interruptions. This is why outsourcing transcriptions makes sense, freeing up secretarial staff to continue with their normal duties.
Voice-overs and Voice Direction
Markets and minds are increasingly reached via audio and audiovisual (AV) broadcasts these days as digital content replaces print media.
Folio's voice-over department introduces clients to talented actors and voice-over artists in many different languages. We offer a comprehensive, end-to-end service so as to ensure successful productions that meet international standards of professionalism.
Editing & Proofreading
Any company that takes pride in its professional image will go to great lengths to ensure that all written material, whether it be for a website, brochure or blog, is 100% free of spelling or grammatical errors.
Localisation
The richness of cultural diversity means that words, expressions and idioms can carry completely different meanings in different regions. Localisation services ensure that a message in its entirety will not be offensive to, or cause misunderstanding by, the target market.
Subtitling & Audio-Visual Translation
Folio’s professional subtitling services bridge language and cultural gaps, making your video content accessible and engaging to global audiences. From films and TV shows to social media and e-learning, our expert linguists create culturally accurate subtitles and captions tailored to your target audience.
Copywriting
Our skills in copywriting and translating for advertising and marketing are in frequent demand. From concept right through to implementation, Folio can source copywriters with the right background for your project. Offering a wealth of commercial experience, our copywriters are on call to help you achieve your advertising and marketing goals.
Interpreting
Folio offers expert interpreting services: from consecutive and simultaneous, to over-the-phone, video remote and South African Sign Language (SASL). Sign language assistance can also be provided in various countries across Africa. Whether for meetings, conferences or hearings, Folio’s skilled interpreters will ensure accurate and nuanced communication. Instant telephonic interpreting is also available in 39 languages via the bespoke Folio InterTel system.
