 And hello guys, this is Waukesh and as part of our series of interviews called Subtitles in the Spotlight, we have the privilege today to be joined by a Subtitle, Kali Vidkowska. Hello Kali. Hi. Kali is actually a bit of a celebrity as a Subtitle and some of you might have heard about her already. But to give a brief introduction, Kali is an audiovisual translator. You're based in Scotland and you have this focus on subsidising for the deaf and hard of hearing. We called her an MA in Spanish and applied language studies from Harriet Ward University and an MA in audiovisual translation from the University of Roehampton. That's actually a very well-known university in terms of audiovisual translation. There are lots of people who graduated from there. And I had a look at your LinkedIn profile. So you've been a freelance subtitler in the translator since 2016. And you have had the chance to work on major titles with media outlets worldwide. You're a passionate SDH trainer and has taught at various institutions. And since 2020, you're also the freelance English language manager at Lindt, which is a language service provider and a believing one, actually, at its base in Sweden. And on one of your profiles, you say, with expertise in subtitle creation, quality control and template file preparation and authoring, I'm committed to providing the best possible hearing experience for the deaf and hard of hearing. Communities. And so that's Kali. And I imagine that as a subtitler, you have lots of work and you have a hectic schedule as most of the titles do. So what do you do to decompress when you do find some free time? I love to cook. So anytime I can get a new recipe to try, I love to spend hours kind of making those. And I also, as a new mum, just love getting to spend as much time with my son as I can. Like you say, I've got a hectic schedule. So trying to juggle it all does become quite difficult. But anytime I can spend with him, that's what I love to do the most. Sure. Now that you mentioned being a parent and your son, I'm wondering, is substituting a good profession if one wants to be a parent or is it difficult to combine this with parenting in your opinion? I mean, I've been incredibly lucky, I think, because I can choose how I want to schedule my days and my weeks and I can make time to look after my son in the week, for example, where some people would be working a nine to five and couldn't have that time with their children. So I'm lucky that I'm in charge of the time that I do spend with him. And so at the moment, I kind of have my set day where I work all day and there's other days where I perhaps would work in the evening and have my son all day. So it's just about navigating it in the way that suits you best, but we're very lucky to have that privilege. Supposedly every mother loves all their children equally, but the official translator is we work with lots of audiovisual content and we have our favourites. So surely you have your own favourite films or series? Yeah, definitely. Growing up, they always love Back to the Future. It's just one of those films that seem so strange now because when they go to the future, we've already had that year now, but it just is one of those things that's just so nostalgic for me. Also, I grew up in the Eda where Harry Potter was like the biggest franchise that there was. So aside from those, I also love Marvel. I'm a sucker for a superhero film, and so I have seen all of them. And aside from that, funnily enough, probably my favourite TV show to watch was actually Stranger Things, so that's always exciting when you get to work on something like that.
