What is the process and workflow?

After interviews have been shot, the video recordings are uploaded to 3Play Media for processing. Transcripts are then downloaded and used to assist in the video editing process. The final videos are published to the 50 Lessons website along with their transcripts.

Why did 50 Lessons select 3Play Media?

50 Lessons selected 3Play Media because they were able to provide high quality transcripts at a very competitive price. It was important for 50 Lessons that 3Play Media’s transcriptionists could accurately capture the cultural and linguistic nuances of the content and that they researched difficult words when necessary. In the customer’s words, “The transcripts are extremely accurate. In some cases, I can tell that the person who’s done it has done some research because they know a company name or a person’s name that the average person on the street would not know.”
