Back to original languageAbout Lucas
French-LSF Interpreter since 2020, I have specialized in two complementary fields: video interpreting and LSF video production.
In video interpreting, I work in various contexts: meetings, training, events, professional appointments. Throughout my career, I have developed a dual expertise, both linguistic and technical. As a supervisor of an LSF interpreter team in a relay center, I ensure the overall quality of calls — readability, pace, interaction management — as well as all the technical parameters that guarantee fluid communication.
In video production, I create subtitles adapted for deaf and hard of hearing people (SME), written translations of LSF videos (capturing and overlaying the signed version), and editing of educational or institutional content related to LSF.
Based in Brazil, I work entirely remotely — which has led me to develop a strong ability to adapt and a constant demand for good video working conditions.
