Subtitling is the process of creating captions that appear on the screen when a video is played, allowing viewers to read a translated or transcribed version of the audio. The basic skills required for subtitling include:

They should be able to understand the nuances of the language, idioms, and cultural references, and translate them accurately to ensure that the subtitles are easy to read and convey the intended meaning.
Time Management: Subtitling requires excellent time management skills as subtitles need to be synchronized with the audio. A subtitler should be able to work quickly and efficiently to ensure that the subtitles appear on screen at the right time and for the right duration.
Attention to Detail: Subtitling requires a high level of attention to detail. Subtitles should not only be accurate and well-translated, but they should also be grammatically correct, free of spelling errors, and follow the correct punctuation rules.
Familiarity with Subtitling Software: A subtitler should have a good command of subtitling software such as Aegisub or Subtitle Workshop. They should be able to use these tools to create subtitles that are formatted correctly and in line with industry standards.
Cultural Awareness: Subtitling requires an understanding of the cultural context of the video being subtitled. A subtitler should be aware of cultural norms, social conventions, and historical events that may impact the translation.
Editing Skills: A subtitler should have excellent editing skills to ensure that the subtitles are well-formatted, easy to read, and appear on screen at the right time. They should also be able to adjust the timing of the subtitles and ensure that they are synchronized with the audio.
Communication Skills: A subtitler should have good communication skills to be able to work effectively with clients and other team members. They should be able to understand and interpret the client’s requirements and feedback and incorporate them into the subtitles.
