HISTORY
The Kitchen, founded in 2001, in Miami, Florida, USA, with Ken Lorber as President/CEO, began as a localization facility for a leading South American group of television channels. It’s reputation in the Latin American market quickly grew, and within months, the Miami-based operation was offering English, Neutral Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese dubbing services for major networks, studios, producers, game developers and distribution companies from every continent.
Miami is a true international city, with an abundance of talent, and a global understanding of the business. It is close to Latin America and the gateway to the US from Europe.
Shortly after its introduction, The Kitchen’s TM Systems, created and developed the industry’s first end to end language localization software, which immediately gave the studio a unique status within the industry. Within months of its introduction, The Kitchen won a prestigious Primetime Emmy® Award (2002) and then again in 2007 for “elevating the status of the overall language localization industry”.
In 2016, The Kitchen began a global expansion, that now proudly includes a European language “hub” in Madrid, Spain and an International Sales office in London, England. Adding a European language operation has given The Kitchen a 24/7 capability to service its clients throughout Europe, The Middle East and Asia.
The Kitchen is giving its clients the ability to unify all of their language needs, to and from every language. International networks and program distributors have increasingly been moving toward consolidating their localization work, selecting a global studio that can provide a multiple language service, while maintaining overall quality and consistency.
Grasping new technologies has always been in the forefront of The Kitchen’s technical and engineering teams daily input and output. Adapting to industry changes, obtaining our TPN Gold Badge, etc., has led to our deep infiltration into the world of AI and how it will be best implemented into our daily workflows.
