Light German polish for a 5,300-word documentary script
Project brief
Looking for a native German speaker to lightly polish a roughly 5,300-word translated YouTube script about ancient engineering and archaeology. The translation is already structured for voiceover. Please correct stiff or unnatural phrases, not rewrite it from scratch, and keep sentence lengths close enough to preserve narration timing.
Send the edited document with changes visible and flag any terminology that needs a decision. The authorized script and any reference terms will be supplied before the work starts. Please tell us about comparable German editing work and your turnaround after receiving the file.
Deliverables & acceptance
What you'll deliver
- One lightly edited German documentary script of approximately 5,300 words with tracked changes and terminology questions flagged.
What the result must meet
- The delivered script covers the entire agreed 5,300-word source and preserves meaning, factual claims and approximate voiceover sentence length.
- Awkward German is corrected without a wholesale rewrite; changes are visible and unresolved terminology is flagged rather than guessed.
