Glyph has been helping organizations bring their eLearning content to global audiences for fifteen years. One challenge we often experience with our clients is ensuring that all the necessary content is scoped properly during the quoting process. Here’s why is it important to get the scoping right early on:
- Ensures the final product is totally localized
- Eliminates budget creep
- Eliminates production delays
- Coordinates media localization (images, audio, video, etc.)
Ensure Your Project Encompasses Everything Required
- Image text – Watch out for images containing text, such as infographics, that will need to be localized. Make sure this text is factored into the word count, and that the localization team knows about it.
- Image files – Send layered image files to the localization team to ease both scoping and production.
- Scripts – Ensure audio scripts are factored into word counts
- Audio – Determine ahead of time how to localize audio – do you want subtitles, voiceover, or both?
- Consider culture – does your courseware have any visual or audio content that would diminish its impact in your target market?
