II Festival de Cine Global Dominicano - 2008

Panels
The DR Global Film Festival has an inclusive spirit and a strong educational and outreach component. In order to achieve the objective of attracting the projects from studios and independent producers to the country, the Festival complements the work the Global Media Arts Institute does throughout the year with a broad program of panels, workshops and master classes (15 in total) to further the training of young filmmakers and continuing the education of full fletched professionals. The Festival wants to bring into the fold all groups of Dominican society by offering participative panels and discussions (10) around the subjects brought up by the films shown, all of them referred to the challenges most individuals must face sooner or later in this globalized world. All these proposals are of interest; all are engaging and stimulating.

Subtitles are textual versions of the dialog in films and television programs, usually displayed at the bottom of the screen. They can either be a form of written translation of a dialog in a foreign language, or a written rendering of the dialog in the same language, with or without added information to help viewers who are deaf and hard of hearing.

Today subtitling professionals usually work with specialized computer software and hardware where the video is digitally stored on a hard disk, making each individual frame instantly accessible. Besides creating the subtitles, the pros usually also tell the computer software the exact positions where each subtitle should appear and disappear. These markers are usually based on time-code if it is a work for electronic media or on film length if the subtitles are to be used for traditional cinema film.

But where do you go to buy the right equipment, which one best suits your needs and what are the costs? Don’t miss this workshop by Jerry Rudes from LVT Laser Subtitling in New York, who will reveal the fundamentals of the trade! Mr. Rudes will be available for one on one coaching for the duration of the Festival.
