Cultural Consultation
From health care issues to employee issues such as sexual harassment, The Language Connection provides Cultural Consultation in one-hour increments for a wide variety of situations and needs.
Telephone Interpreting
The Language Connection charges a 1/4 hour minimum for all Seattle area Medical facilities, and 1/2 hour for medical needs outside the area and all other organizations. Frequently, a call is considered by both the agency and the interpreter to be a courtesy call when it is a prelude to an in-person interpreting encounter. The average phone call over the past several months lasted 15 minutes. Compare this price with pay per minute programs which many businesses currently utilize!
Narration and Voice-overs
The Language Connection maintains a library of voice talent available for client review and selection for a myriad of video and media production. Voice talent can be provided for a minimum of two hours at a time. Prices for union talent will be negotiated on a per job basis. Additional charges may include studio time, editing and recording administration.
It is wise to determine in the beginning of your project what extent of editing and linguistic support will be required before entering the recording studio (and before commencement of translation, if possible)
Teleconferencing, Videoconferencing
It is highly recommended that a briefing be held with the interpreter or that important vocabulary be otherwise transmitted to the interpreter prior to the conference date in order to achieve a smooth, successful teleconfrence meeting.
