The Choice is Ours (2016) Full Version

This film series explores many aspects of our society. Visions of global unity & fellowship have long inspired humanity, yet the social arrangements up to the present have largely failed to produce a peaceful and productive world. The Choice Is Ours includes interviews with notable scientists, media professionals, authors, and other thinkers exploring the difficulties we face. ( 1:37:20 )
Note: this project began as a Translate-a-thon (details preserved below the standard info)

If you have a dotSUB.com account, go to the Working Location Link and sign in, choose Japanese in the languages selection and click translate.
Just before you start, and then later when you are done, reply in this forum thread so all the others know what you are doing.
Ask for help in this thread too, in case you need some guidance.

The Choice Is Ours (2016)

Hello.
I've been wondering if we as a team can launch a project of subtitling on "The Choice Is Ours (2016)".
Is anyone interested and motivated?

OK.
やりましょう。しかしKatsu87さんと私だけでやるのも少し寂しいので、もう少しメンバーが集まるのを待ちましょう。
いろいろと思案しております。

Wonderful initiative, Miroku! :thumbup:

Before you dive in too deep, allow me to adjust your thread-starter to provide all of you with LTI's dedicated 'working location', where all of the teams develop their translations based on the carefully crafted transcription developed by the English Department. Every project within our care first passes through the English team before it is opened up for translating into all other languages, so that our translations across all languages are based on the most accurate English content. This approach ensures that all teams work on the official release of the project (not all YouTube locations have the exact same version of a given video), and it also removes the need for all non-English teams to worry at all about timestamping the many videos within our care.

To work on video projects, each member needs to register an account at dotsub.com, the online translation-assist program that we use for all video projects. This video will help you become a near-master on how to use the tool.

Of course, if anyone has any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to PM me here in the forum. I am always at your service, my friends!

Ok, it seems quite large but together maybe we can do it.
I will join you shortly on this.
Need to restore some skill, because there wasn't really much practice these days.

Thanks, Dmitry, for your volunteer spirit!

Hello, Dmitry-san!
Firstly, may I use the Japanese language for this reply?
Dmitryさん、初めまして。
volunteer精神に感謝します。私もvolunteerです。メンバー（＝人員）が不足しているという現状ですが、心強いお言葉です、ありがとうございます。
現在、私が一応、形としてはイニシアチブを担って日本語チームを生成・発展させようと計画しています。私を含む3名から成るTroika体制を築くことが短期目標でした。過去形です。つまりDmitryさんがこのTroikaに加わってくださることで、一つのTroikaから成るユニット・チームが出来上がります。つまり、上にコメントしてくださっているKatsu87さんと私、そしてDmitryさんの３人という体制です。
奇（ク）しくもKatsu87さんとDmitryさんは日本語が母国語ではありません。ですので、Dmitryさん、日本語の熟達度を知る必要があります。Skype, Facebook、あるいはここのForumのPM（private message)を利用してコミュニケーションをとりましょう。そして計画を一緒に練りませんか？Katsu87さんとはすでにつながりました。彼とはすでにコミュニケーションがいつでも取れる状態です

ご連絡お待ちしております！このthreadでのコメントという形でも当然構いませんので。よろしくです。

If we wait for perfection in the first translation drafts, little to nothing will become translated.

The idea here is for at least one person to focus on translating a project, and then any others who wish to improve it can "proofread" it. It may take more than one proofreading to get it as good as everyone wishes it to be before releasing it to the world, but at least more materials will gradually become available for Japanese speakers who do not understand English.

@miroku:
これは途中で止まっていますか？
yukafromtokyoさんに校正の依頼をかけたのですが、暇なときになるだろうから、待ってる間に次のを訳していきたいと思っています。
この「The Choice Is Ours (2016)」が良いかなと思うのですが、どう思いますか。
ご意見ください。

@Ray:
I asked yukafromtokyo for proofreading.
She may also be busy, so it may take time.
There are few people currently working in the Japanese language team, so maybe it will be difficult to find two more proofreaders.
I want to translate the next while I am waiting.
I think this "The Choice Is Ours (2016)" is good.

Yuki, at about 1 hour, 37 minutes, this is one of the longest (so more difficult to translate) videos within LTI's care.
It is also one of the most important documentaries for helping people understand The Venus Project and the global Resource Based Economy proposal.

I just want you to be highly aware of those two possibly conflicting facts before you commit to focusing on it. It is up to you and the team to determine how to best allocate your collective time, energies and talents, and I will certainly support whatever you and the team decide. :rose:

@Ray:
Certainly, 2 minutes to 1 hour 37 minutes may have passed suddenly.

I learn by translating.
"The Choice is Ours (2016) Full Version" looks very interesting.
But,I'll make it a little shorter.
Thank you for the advice.
