I specialize in Chinese literary translation and narrative localization — the kind of work where rhythm, silence, and emotional restraint matter just as much as accuracy. I help projects sound genuinely human in Chinese, avoiding rigid, machine-like phrasing in favor of language that feels emotionally grounded, natural, and genuinely lived-in. As an independent writer with a BA in Chinese Literature from Xiamen University, I bring a creator’s intuition to fast-paced commercial pipelines. Why trust me with your project? • Proven Commercial Efficiency: Localized, proofread, and synchronized over 40 hours of dialogue across more than 20 high-volume serialized short dramas, maintaining strong continuity and consistency under tight deadlines. • Technical Subtitling Expertise: Highly proficient in Subtitle Edit (SE) for precise timecoding, spotting, and subtitle synchronization. • Brand Copywriting Experience: Crafted commercial narrative work and marketing copy for major global brands like Vivo. • Deep Literary Foundation: Continuous study and translation of modern English-language writers (J.D. Salinger, Richard Brautigan, Raymond Carver, among others), giving me a hyper-sensitivity to subtext, ambiguity, and character voice. My core services include: 🎬 Short Drama Localization, Subtitling & Adaptation • Dialogue localization and subtitle polishing for native reading rhythm • Accurate timecoding, spotting, and line-syncing using Subtitle Edit (SE) • UI-aware editing and concise line restructuring under subtitle constraints • Emotional pacing and character voice consistency across serialized content ✒️ Literary Translation & Narrative-Heavy Localization • Narrative-heavy indie games (RPGs / psychological horror) • Surrealist fiction, stream-of-consciousness prose, and experimental writing • Literary publications and hybrid multimedia projects 🎙️ Narrative Voiceover & Audio Production As a native speaker holding a Level 2-A Mandarin Proficiency Certificate (China's national standard fluency certification), I provide atmospheric voice work for audiobooks, documentaries, and narrative media. • Studio-grade workflow: Zoom H4 recording + Logic Pro post-production. • Deliverables: Broadcast-ready audio with detailed noise reduction, de-clicking, and emotional pacing. I approach language not simply as information, but as atmosphere. If your project values emotional precision and localization that feels authentically human, I would love to collaborate. Feel free to message me with your project details — I'm happy to discuss scope, timeline, and fit.
