Editing, Highlights, and Subtitles as Recorded

What the archived page said about post-production: how editing was measured, what highlights and publishing added, and how subtitles were priced.

Editing was measured by the raw material handed over, not by the finished episode. The page described a full edit covering audio mastering, video editing, removal of unwanted parts, and integration of supplied music, jingles, ads, intros, and outros. The recorded amounts were 35 BD for up to 15 minutes of raw material, 55 BD for up to 60 minutes, and 75 BD for up to 120 minutes.

Highlights and publishing sat beside editing. A package creating a 30 to 60 second trailer plus 3 attention-grabbing highlights of up to 2 minutes each was recorded at 55 BD per episode; the same package with 6 highlights at 75 BD and with 12 highlights at 95 BD. Publishing the full episode plus 3, 6, or 12 clips, with captions and show notes, followed the same three amounts.

Subtitles were separate again: 55 BD per episode for same-language subtitles in Arabic or English up to one hour, manually proofread and edited, and 85 BD per episode for translation between Arabic and English for episodes up to one hour.

These amounts are historical figures in BD from the archived source, kept as written rather than restated as a current offer.
