Creative Translation

I have a special interest in 'creative' texts: marketing copy, website copy, leaflets and brochures, press releases, promotional texts, journalism, literary texts and other translations requiring a particular flair for language. I specialised in this area of translation when I worked for Eurologos, and have dealt with a wide range of subject matter from mobile phones to gourmet food to Magic: The Gathering. But don't worry - if something is outside my area of expertise, I will aim to put you in touch with the right translator for you. I am passionate about language and the ways it can be used creatively, and am a talented writer in my own right. I focus on the message behind your text to create English copy that works just as well as the original. Recent projects I have worked on include: A catalogue for a French fashion company Marketing copy from a website selling French wines Promotional materials used by drug representatives A brochure about hair transplants Two chapters of a 19th century French text about Sacchini: La Cour et l’opéra sur Louis XVI by Adolphe Jullien A selection of poetry by four French African and Caribbean poets: Marie-Léontine Tsibinda, Birago Diop, Léon Laleau and Daniel Maximin Image: Carlos Porto / FreeDigitalPhotos.net
