If what I have done so far on Ozymandias is okay, I would be willing to do Ashes, Ashes.

Hello!

I'm new....and yes!

I've been re-watching S1, and do you still need "China Moon" or "Fever" transcribed? I saw those weren't on the website. I can do either.

Also, how much in regards to extra comments do you want in the transcript? Like camera direction, transitions, descriptions of tone for dialogue, ect?

Just let me know. Thanks! 8)

Hi Emily, and welcome.

So nice that a newbie’s (you're a newbie to fandom, yes?) first idea is volunteering for something at service of fandom! Thank you.

No, China Moon and Fever have been already transcribed, they need editing. (In the post “List of episodes needing work”, you can see what episodes need what) Normally, somebody transcribes and others edit the rough transcription, which is supposed to be as “dry” as possible, with the dialogue lines and the bare descriptions of movements. Editing means comparing the transcription with the episode, correct any mistakes, and add/complete the scenes with descriptions (which should remain as essential and neutral as possible, as transcriptions are neither scripts nor fic) using as a pattern one of the transcriptions on the site BatBforever, such as, for exemple, Ozymandias or A Happy Life.

If you want, I can send you the transcription of China Moon for editing. You can try a couple scenes and I'll tell you if it's okay so that you can continue.

That said, what about telling us something more about yourself? Nice nick, by the way! I’ve created a topic for this
Board index > Welcome > Introduce yourself.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Awww, thanks! Yep I am, and not a problem.

Oh I got ya. Well, I'll help edit or transcribe whatever is next on deck. Sure, China Moon is fine! Yeah, I checked out some previous transcripts and they are "dry" as you say. That's the difference between transcript and script I guess, haha. Do you send in through this forum, or is there like a Google Docs account?

Thanks for the welcome! I'll be sure to post in the welcome thread as well.

I have the dialogue transcribed for A Gentle Rain.
Would you add the "action"?
