Mila Kartina Kamil

Making Media Accessible for Everyone

Loved by business and individuals across Indonesia

  • For me, Mila is a professional with a heart to assist the blind.

    In 2007, I initiated a project to enable the blind to enjoy watching films, and Mila took part in it. She crafted Audio Descriptions for three films: Ketika and Nagabonar Jadi 2 directed by Deddy Mizwar, and Rindu Kami Pada-Mu directed by Garin Nugroho.

    The films were screened in Jakarta, Semarang, and Yogyakarta. It was very fascinating, as we, the blind, could truly enjoy the films. For those who want to know Mila Kartina Kamil, I think she is our heroine.


  • On behalf of Yayasan Mitra Netra and people with visual impairment who read digital talking books that Mitra Netra produces, I would like to thank you and appreciate for your strong commitment to become our digital talking book reader, since 2002, up till now. It’s not such short time to become volunteer. I know you would be with us even for ever!
     
    Because of your nice and expressive voice, we, people with visual impairment love to read Harry Potter, Bilangan Fu and other quality books which are available on our online library www.pustaka.mitranetra.or.id. Students with visual impairment are very enthusiastic in learning when they are listening to your voice with such clear intonation and articulation.
     
    The role of volunteer who has strong commitment like you has helped non-profit oriented institution like Yayasan Mitra Netra become more sustainable. Please, keep being with us, Mila.

    Mitra Netra accessible book production and library services is developing reading and learning society among people with visual impairment in Indonesia.


  • I had a unique and fascinating experience when watching the film Ketika with Audio Description (AD). The AD was clear and did not overlap with the dialogue or background music.

    I also became aware that our focus when watching films can differ from others. I noticed, for example, that when Pak Tajir drives the bajaj, the AD mentions a banner with the word "MUTIARA" on the front screen of the vehicle. This detail had not caught my attention before.

    In my opinion, AD can also serve as a learning tool for sighted people. I hope AD continues to grow and develop in our country so that more people can benefit from it.


  • Mila is a rare person. While others pursue brilliant careers and large sums of money, she works on anti-mainstream jobs. Becoming a writer who specifically writes for the blind is not a common choice. It can't be compared with money; it is something priceless.


  • Mbak Mila is truly a great addition to the team I have been working with these last few years at Lanting Animation Studio. She is a writer with a passion for elevating her knowledge in writing any kind of narrative or non-narrative storytelling, especially since our team mostly works with animation projects from short animation to client-based projects such as infographics and educational animation videos.


  • While working with Mbak Mila, I learned a lot about well-managed workflows and the discipline needed to meet deadlines. From her experience as an editor, I learned not only about writing, but also how to impart meaning to a text that will be read by others, and how to edit someone else's text without altering its goal and purpose.


  • I worked with Mila when I was working in an agency. She is friendly, responsible, and pleasant to work with.


  • I recommend Mila Kartina for her outstanding English to Indonesian translation services. Her professional approach, thorough research on the subject, and commitment to maintaining high-quality work make her an excellent choice for any elearning project.


  • Mila is a good writing mentor. I have learned a lot when she invited me as co-writer on a video script project. She always supports me to improve my writing skill.


  • It has been a great pleasure working with Mila. Mila is meticulous and creative. She has comprehensive linguistic and cultural understanding of Indonesian market. She always studies client briefs carefully, proactively raises relevant queries, and delivers on brief with creativity and quality. She is patient to write good EBT and detailed rationales, which are very important and helpful for us. She is also collaborative and always willing to help.


  • Mila is a nice person to talk and discuss, an independent woman with good vision.


  • Mila is a dedicated person to her work. She is a talented voice over and you will not be disappointed once you hire her for your project :)


  • Mila Kartina is very concerned on details. That is what really helps in producing the best translation work.
