Oral history is a field of heritage and historical research where an interviewer sits down with an important person and gets a first hand account of their memories, thoughts and feelings about a particular topic.
Some of the best historical content can be created during these interviews. This is why oral history projects are growing in popularity and importance.
But with multiple interviewees and limited resources, organisations may be struggling to manage and stay on top of all this content. This is particularly problematic when looking to create books, exhibitions or other engaging elements based on the oral history interviews.
This is where freelance transcription services can prove to be hugely beneficial. At Goldfinch Heritage, we can take your interviews, transcribe accordingly, and provide you with tangible, actionable information to support your project aims.
Often transcribing interviews can be a particularly-time consuming task, and one many organisations may not have staff available to do.
By freelancing your transcription requirements out to Goldfinch Heritage, you can dedicate your time to other elements of your project, and focus on the things that are most important to your overall aims.
Many organisations use online transcription services, but these can be error-strewn and incomplete. We therefore advise you to take the human approach when it comes to transcription.
Once we have completed our work, you will have interviews that are written up perfectly, and which can be easily read, understood, and acted upon.
