Bilingual Translator for Sri Lankan Film

I'm producing a documentary (my second) about the socio-economic effects of ecological food reform in Sri Lanka, with a focus on tea farms and fisherman issues. As I'll spend a significant amount of time on-site, I require a bilingual translator fluent in both Sinhalese and Tamil (+ English) to facilitate live conversations with locals. Key Responsibilities: - Facilitate live conversations in Sinhalese and Tamil - Ensure clear understanding of local dialects - Assist in building rapport with locals - Help navigate cultural nuances and sensitivities The ideal candidate should have: - Native-level fluency in both Sinhalese and Tamil - Previous experience translating for documentaries or research projects - Strong communication and intercultural skills - Understanding of the socio-political landscape in Sri Lanka - Willingness to be on-site for the duration of the project - be able to acquire contacts to relevant people who can share their experience in the movie (also incognito) - responsible for planning the trip and interviews schedule The job is for approx 100 hours of work on various sites in Sri Lanka as of now.. We are coming for 4 weeks and we want 50% relax and 50% of movie shootings. This is non profit movie initiative. Please include a detailed project proposal in your application showcasing your relevant experience, understanding of the subject matter, and how you plan to approach the translation work.
