If you\u2019re organizing an online event with English, Spanish and Italian speakers<\/strong>, a remote video interpreter<\/strong> can help all participants get the most out of it. It also has fewer associated costs than in-person interpreting.<\/p>

\"Remote<\/p>

What is remote interpreting?<\/strong><\/h2>

A remote video interpreter works in a separate location to the audience and speaker. This service can be performed as remote simultaneous translation<\/a>, consecutive interpreting<\/a> or in liaison interpreting mode<\/a>.<\/p>

To work remotely, the interpreter requires a quiet, isolated environment and good equipment. They use a professional headset and microphone, Ethernet cable, tablet (or other secondary device) and backup connection.<\/p>

I have extensive experience as a remote translator <\/strong>and am familiar with the main remote interpreting platforms, particularly Zoom<\/a>.<\/p>

I am an accredited remote interpreter on the Ablio and KUDO platforms, and also regularly use Google Meet, StreamYard, and Microsoft Teams.<\/p>

However, if you are more comfortable with a different platform, I will happily adapt to your preferred one.<\/p>

What equipment do I need for remote interpretation?<\/strong><\/h2>

When it comes to remote interpreting, the interpreter will provide all necessary equipment. You just need to choose from one of the many remote interpreting platforms<\/strong> available and create the event link. While some platforms are free, those that support simultaneous translation and create virtual booths (such as Zoom) often charge a fee.<\/p>

But don\u2019t worry. If you don\u2019t have a Zoom PRO account, I can include complimentary hours in your quote and create the event link. Alternatively, I can recommend another platform offering similar features at a very competitive rate. Again, I can take care of the organization of your remote event.<\/p>

Needless to say, it’s best if all event participants have an external microphone or headphones with a built-in microphone<\/strong>. This allows the remote video interpreter to hear what is being said clearly. However, with the exception of highly technical events, good PC audio is perfectly acceptable, as long as the speaker is isolated from outside noise.<\/p>

Are remote translation services carried out only by one person or does it require a pair of interpreters?<\/strong><\/h2>

An online interpreting service<\/strong> may require the presence of one or two professional interpreters, depending on the duration of the event and the interpreting mode selected.<\/p>

If your event lasts one hour (60 minutes) or less, you can hire just one interpreter for a remote simultaneous interpreting service<\/strong>.<\/p>

If the event lasts longer than one hour (60 minutes), you\u2019ll need to hire two professional interpreters to guarantee high-quality service at all times.<\/p>

In fact,\u00a0studies on the human brain<\/a>\u00a0show it is impossible for anyone to maintain full concentration for long periods. It is therefore necessary for simultaneous interpreters to rest roughly every 20-30 minutes. During these rest periods, their boothmate will take over.<\/p>

But never think of this as taking things easy! When interpreters are not translating, they are busy helping their colleagues with more complex terminology, proper names and figures, as well as continuing to follow the speech.<\/p>

What is more, they also need to monitor group chats and be ready to communicate with you at all times.<\/p>

By contrast, in the case of a remote consecutive interpreting service, it is possible to rely on a single interpreter.<\/p>

The maximum duration for which a professional can work alone in consecutive interpreting<\/a> varies depending on the technical nature of the event and the scheduled breaks.<\/p>

The same applies to liaison or B2B interpreting<\/a>, which is usually less technical than the consecutive mode and is therefore carried out by just one interpreter.<\/p>

In which contexts can remote interpretation be useful?<\/strong><\/h2>

Remote interpretation is a flexible service suitable for a variety of events, including conferences, lectures, masterclasses, conventions, congresses and debates. Depending on the event type, remote simultaneous or remote consecutive interpreting may be more appropriate.<\/p>

A remote service<\/strong> can reduce the costs usually associated with in-person interpreting, especially with regard to interpreting equipment. However, there are some situations that are unsuitable for remote interpreting. For the following cases, I recommend an in-person interpreting service:<\/p>
