Forensic Transcription Australia
Forensic transcription is everyone's business – even if you've never heard of it
Below is a video of my nutshell overview (23min; 87MB) of the problems of forensic transcription presented in March 2017 to an audience including many notable and respected judges at the National Judicial College of Australia (details below).
I managed to record my recent presentation at the Australian Association for Forensic Sciences and have edited it into a short video for you. At 34 mins, it packs in a lot of new experimental results and case studies.
On 16 May 2018, I gave a presentation at the Victorian Chapter of the Australian Academy of Forensic Science. I was honoured to be introduced by Justice John Champion, formerly Director of Public Prosecutions in Victoria, recently appointed as a judge in the Victoria Supreme Court, and Chairman of AAFS Victoria.
This is the video (53 minutes) of the keynote speech I gave on 4 July at the IAFL conference in Melbourne.
It is intended for a forensic linguistics audience, and, as mentioned in the first minute, it goes rapidly through some established background about forensic transcription and translation, in order to bring together some key points for discussion about what is needed in order to ensure reliable transcription and translation of forensic audio used as evidence in court. If you are not in the target audience, you are of course welcome to new this video, but you might find one of the other videos or readings available on this site gives you a better introduction.
I was delighted recently to be interviewed by Corinne Deall of A R Conolly and Co, Lawyers, and even more delighted to have the interview released as part of the criminal law section or BenchTV (an online publication of Benchmark Inc).
