Hello All.
There was a project we'd envisioned a while ago - when Veerabasaiah started off a topic here about moulding some useful video content (from UK, and in English) to fit requirements of Auto driver community here in Bangalore. So there were some comments people posted about this, and finally we could procure the content that we need to work upon.

Namma Auto - A Report
rohith - 9 March, 2009 | Projects | Bangalore | Action | Namma Auto
As discussed in the recent Praja meeting, we (I & veeracb; apparently Syed also) work's going on in this regard, as planned. Veera has procured the relevant video content, and also the transcript of the English content. Now the update follows:
- Translation of this text to Kannada is underway - nearly complete. I have been able to interact with a few people in Kannada Prasaara Parishat - a body that is engaged in arranging Kannada classes at multiple locations, for a wide spectrum of people across the state, and thus seems to be perfect to perform this translation task accurately, and in the best possible language.
- I have also been able to liaison with the same team to identify volunteers for generating the voice background for the Kannada version of this video.
- Utterances of this Kannada text has yet to be recorded, and when that is done, it'll have to be merged with the Video, matching on time-scale with the sounds of the original English speaker. Before this, the English audio must of course be streamed out (stripped) of the original video. All this need some Audio Engineering expert help.
So this post is to invite candidates with skills matching with the requirements stated in point #3 above. Basically we'd need someone who can handle Video files that we've received, strip English audio content from them, merge the Kannada audio content in exact time-locations, and also super-impose any English text in the video with their Kannada counterparts. This would probably call for experience with processing digital audio/video content, and merging PowerPoint/Keynote slides into the video file.
Interested or otherwise, do post remarks here. Interested to help, may please reach out on this very thread.
