We are seeking an experienced transcriptionist to transcribe 12 security and camera recordings that contain background noise.

Project Overview:

I have about a dozen video files in .dav format (DVR/security camera recordings), totaling roughly 5 hours of footage. These videos contain conversations between people, but there are also many background noises (cars, movement, general environment).

What I Need:

  • Convert .dav files to a workable format (if needed).
  • Create a clear transcript of all conversations in English (verbatim or near-verbatim).
  • Differentiate speakers where possible (e.g., Speaker 1 / Speaker 2).
  • Skip irrelevant noises (traffic, rustling, etc.) unless they affect the meaning of speech.

Requirements:

  • Experience with audio/video transcription and working with noisy recordings.
  • Familiarity with tools that can handle .dav files (or ability to convert them).
  • Attention to detail: final transcripts must be accurate and time-stamped.

Deliverables:

  • combined transcript of all 12 videos in one document.

Total length: ~5 hours of recordings.

Please include in your proposal:

  • Examples of similar transcription work.
  • Your approach/tools for cleaning audio and ensuring accuracy.
  • Estimated turnaround time for ~5 hours of video.
