Cantonese Translation – Drama That Breathes, Cries, and Burns
Budget: $1,500 – $3,000 USD
Help Our Story Come Alive in Cantonese
We’re working on a dramatic piece filled with heartbreak, intensity, and quiet moments that hit harder than loud ones.
Now we need someone who can carry that same emotional punch into Cantonese, not just by translating words but by capturing the rhythm, tone, and fire of each scene.
If you’re familiar with dramatic storytelling and you understand how Cantonese dialogue flows — whether you’re experienced or just starting out — we want you in the audition.

Your Role
Translate a drama-focused script into natural, expressive Cantonese, ensuring:
The emotional weight is preserved
Dialogue sounds real, raw, and local
The flow feels like something actors can perform naturally
Length: Short dramatic scenes and character exchanges.
---
Tone & Atmosphere
> Quiet tension.
Sudden emotion.
Words that hit like memories you can’t escape.
We want the Cantonese audience to feel every scene, not just understand it.
