[Editors] Looking for transcription service

[Kris Brewer]

Straight transcripts are much cheaper but only good or reading. Coded versions are more expensive ($2/min of video on average) but can be used for closed captions etc. Kris

Hi Folks,

Our previous transcription service (Alice Darling Secretarial) seems to have gone out of business.

Could anyone recommend another one (in house or out).

Thanks.

David
