Welcome to our Koresemi On-Demand Video Seminar that is ALL about the world of Japanese-to-English（日英）Media Translation! In this special video-on-demand  seminar, we’ll be talking about what it’s really like working as a professional J-E media translator, fun and unique projects that JVTA graduates have worked on, tips for passing the JVTA trial, and other special info that you can only learn from J-E course graduates and teachers currently working in the J-E field.

This time, our on-demand seminar will have three parts:

◆ Part 1: Interview in English with JE translator/graduate Adrian Godinez about what it’s like to work as a J-E media translator and about projects he has worked on – including the recent My Hero Academia Worldwide Character Popularity Poll.

◆ Part 2: Interview in English with JE teacher/graduate Maiko Tamura, who will be talking about her scope of work as a freelancer, which includes not only translating subtitles, but working in film production and on-set interpretation.

◆ Part 3: Interview in Japanese with JE graduates about their experience translating the film Tulip-chan as part of JVTA’s ProZemi mini-course. They’ll talk about their experience translating this film as a team in preparation for its screening at the 2024 Skip City Film Festival.

Whether you are a current or past student of our J-E course, or have not studied J-E but are interested in learning more about it, we would love for you to join us. Don’t miss it!

◆KORESEMI Wisdom, Essential in a Time of Change

Japan Visualmedia Translation Academy Group CEO Naoki Niira

Our KORESEMI Panel the only extracurricular seminar that has been held every semester, without fail, since the establishment of Japan Visualmedia Translation Academy (JVTA) over twenty years ago. The progress of our students, our translators, and the panelists for this seminar is the progress of JVTA itself.

Today, freelancing is undergoing great change. We are in an age where the government has begun providing support and large corporations encourage side jobs. This applies to the visual media translation industry as well. Client companies are reviewing the laws and regulations of business, leading to a change in the way they evaluate and do business with translators. What challenges does this pose for professional translators, and how do they overcome them? KORESEMI is a unique opportunity to get a realistic perspective from actual translators, which can be hard to come by.

As the translators discuss how to manage your time and work area, or how to work with fellow translators, you’ll be able to hear a lot of fun personal anecdotes. These moments are part of what makes KORESEMI so special.

There is a reason this seminar has continued for over twenty years. It is not only effective in increasing learning and motivation, but is also a chance to gain information that will support you throughout your career.

I hope you join the seminar and make the best use of the experience in your daily work and studies.hope you join the seminar and make the best use of the experience in your daily work and studies.
