Localization Project Management

From initial planning to multi-language localization and LQA, I can take your media localization project to new audiences around the world. My goal: provide high-quality localization on time, under budget.

Game credits include 2021’s Sonic Colors Ultimate, 2023’s P3P and P4G Ports/Remasters, as well as numerous unannounced titles of 2 million+ characters.

TV dub credits are all currently unannounced. Both titles are major entries in my client’s catalogue and are being dubbed in 30+ languages with 10+ subtitle-only languages. 

I also provide consultation to game companies looking for tips and additional direction for their next game project. Shoot me an email and we’ll talk!

Localization Engineering

Working in the video game industry has lead me to develop the skills necessary to optimize workflow between source documents and computer-assisted translation (CAT) tools. 

Some of my accomplishments thus far include:

  • Developing, testing, and implementing a fully-automated Python system that connected memoQ to developer SVN databases for real-time updating of proprietary XML structures from memoQ XLIFF
  • Creating custom XLIFF elements to work with memoQ’s XLIFF export shortcomings for document change tracking
  • Working with Nintendo to devise a similar automated system that linked their proprietary developer databases to our multiple language projects
  • Reverse-engineering TMX files to contain and manage multilingual string data for a 250,000+ JPC project
  • Writing custom scripts to convert proprietary and XML filetypes to ADR voice scripts that can be updated on the fly when needed
