But the majority of our users can be categorized into three groups: university researchers, professional transcriptionists, and documentary filmmakers.<\/p>\n<p>To highlight how our folks are using the tool, we would like to do an occasional feature where we invite our users to be guest bloggers.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s our first guest blog from a pair of award-winning documentary filmmakers. We were particularly interested in how they might be using InqScribe as part of their translation and transcription workflow, so we asked them to elaborate:<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/digallmedia.com\/\"><img title=\"DigAllMedia\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.inquirium.net\/img\/DigAllMedia_Image.png\" alt=\"DigAllMedia\" width=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">DigAllMedia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>By Dianne Griffin and Erica Jordan<\/p>\n<p>Digall Media, a 501(c)(3) organization founded by Erica Jordan and Dianne Griffin is currently in production on their one-hour documentary Painted Nails \u2013 a Vietnamese immigrant story of exotic nail art, pampered clients, and the serious health risks that lurk beneath the brightly painted surface.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re excited about using Inquirium\u2019s product InqScribe to transcribe dialogue and create English subtitles for our Vietnamese and Spanish speaking characters. We&#8217;re still fine-tuning the workflow of importing subtitles, generated with InqScribe, into Final Cut Pro. It took some time to figure out the importing and exporting specs, but it was worth trouble-shooting. We can now transcribe dialogue in InqScribe with timecode and export it as an XML file using a custom FCP XML template. When the XML file is imported into Final Cut, the subtitles (as text elements) magically appear on a new timeline. InqScribe\u2019s support page offers to look at your files to help trouble-shoot subtitling issues. InqScribe works great with a foot pedal, saving valuable post-production time.<\/p>\n<p>Filmmaking is hard enough; it\u2019s great to find a product such as InqScribe to make it easier.<\/p>\n<p>Please contact us at info@inquirum.net if you&#8217;re interested in highlighting your work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"InqScribe has many different kinds of users.
