Swedish to English: Dragon X General field: Other Detailed field: Cinema, Film, TV, Drama
Source text - Swedish Vera Film presenterar DRAGON X
En jägare är en soldat som är fysiskt och psykiskt stark. Som ensam - eller i jägargrupp, med mycket hög uthållighet och utan hjälp från andra enheter - bedriver spaning, sabotage och strid långt bakom fiendens linjer.
Jägare är utbildade för att med hjälp av eldhandvapen, automatgevär, prickskyttegevär, pansarvärnsrobotar, minor samt genom att leda artilleri helikoptrar och attackflyg bekämpa fientliga mål.
Endast ett fåtal uppfyller kraven för jägartjänstgöring.
Rekryterna gör tre månaders soldatutbildning innan de prövas i jägarövningen med baskermarsch.
Uniform är viktigt för lagkänslan. Likformighet eliminerar utanförskap.
Alla är vem som helst och döms bara efter egenskaper och agerande.
Under jägarövningen ska soldaterna klara ensamhet, ovisshet, kyla och mörker men också stress och kaos.
Endast de som klarar alla prov får bära den gröna baskern och titulera sig Jägare.
Translation - English Vera Film Presents DRAGON X
A Sniper is a soldier who is physically and psychologically strong. Who - alone or in a group, with very high resilience and without help from other units - spy, sabotages and fights far beyond the enemy lines.
A Sniper is trained to combat enemy targets with the help of shot guns automatic rifles, target rifles, bulldozers and mines, as well as mastering artillery helicopters and fighter planes.
Only a few meet the requirements for a placement in the Sniper Unit.
The recruits have to complete three months of regular soldier training before they are tested in the official "Snipers March".
Wearing a uniform is important for the team spirit. Unity eliminates alienation.
Everybody is anybody and a private is purely judged by his qualities and actions.
During the sniper training the soldiers have to cope with loneliness, uncertainty, coldness, darkness, stress and chaos.
Only those who complete all the tests receive the green beret and are officially titled "Snipers".

Bio
A brief summary of my career history to date:

Helping to fulfil the expectations of the current readership and increasing exposure to new readers. Sourcing local Swedish news as well as translating press releases from Swedish to English.

In 2008 and 2009 I had the opportunity to work for The Guardian Online as a freelance journalist. I contributed with a series of feature articles, which appeared on The Guardian's social affairs and public policy website. This required a clear understanding of the site's audience and their interests and pitching relevant features which fitted in well with the news agenda of the time.

Conducting telephone interviews and researching company financial data from a variety of sources in order to assist senior reporters and journalists. This included some translation of news articles from Swedish to English. One other principal responsibility was to produce a daily comment on the New York stock exchange, which required sourcing and editing of various news items for afternoon release on Bloomberg and Reuters.
Vera Films, Sweden

Primarily responsible for official subtitling from Swedish to English, as well as editing the final draft of the translation before general DVD release and pitching at European film festivals.
