  • Hi Alex, would you be interested in having me dub this video into Spanish. I've got a blog on journalism and communication (http://www.5Wh.info) and this video would be great for it.

    Just let me know if you think it might be interesting. I'm thinking about the documentary kind dubbing where there's no need for perfect lip-sync and your voice remains clearly in the background.

    Great blog, by the way. I'm looking forward to improving mine in the near future.
