Overview

This document serves as a guide to the Content Localization Portal Communication. The CLP is a work in progress. Updates will be added. 

 

What is the Content Localization Portal?

The Content Localization Portal (CLP) is a project management application designed to house apps and pieces of the dubbing process in one toolset. The vision is to provide accurate information, which is organized in a digestible manner, generating actionable tasks for all users. 

 

In other words…the CLP is a Netflix tool for dubbing requests (dialogue lists, pivot language dialogue lists, as-recorded dub scripts, and audio description scripts) management.

 

🗒️ NOTE: 

  • Linguists do not have access to the CLP 
  • The CLP is a work in progress. Updates will be documented here.

 

Access

  • To access the CLP, users must have the dub portal user role in Starship.
  • To access the Authoring tool, linguists must have a dialogue list author and/or dialogue list proofreader role in Starship.

 

How does the CLP work?

There are 5 Parts to the Content Localization Portal: 

  • Projects
  • Schedule 
  • Show Guide
  • Request Management
  • Communication

 

This document will focus on the user’s projects.

 

My Projects

Upon going to https://contentloc.netflixstudios.com/, the user will be directed to the “My Projects” page of the Content Localization Portal. This is the user’s homepage that houses all “‘followed” projects.
