Profile Photo Marcelo Cordeiro Correia

After receiving a Bacherlor of Arts degree in Philosophy and German, I became a translator. Years of an intensive dealing with words aroused in me an enthusiasm for typography and graphic design, which eventually brought me to my early education in Computer Engineering. Now I'm currently working as full stack web developer.

What I do:

As an strategic partner, I help people and organisations perform their marketing communications. My creative tools are:

Web Development

First of all: expression on the Web. I design and develop websites to be used as content management systems (CMS), being Wordpress and Django CMS the main platforms I work with. Here are some of the projects I've been working on:

Hotsite for the Book «500 years of German and Brazilian Relations»
Hotsite for the Book «500 years of German and Brazilian Relations»

Hotsite for the Book «500 years of German and Brazilian Relations»

Edited by the publishing house Editora Brasileira de Arte e Cultura alongside Goethe Institut and Instituto Martius Staden of São Paulo, the book covers the relationship between Germany and Brazil from various perspectives. The site aims to give the reader a glimpse of its content.

Main technologies:

  • Translation and Localization

    German and English into Brazilian Portuguese

    The process of translation is like the creative process of design: always in search of the right expression in its context. I have ten years of experience with copywriting, press releases, product descriptions, subtitling, and content creation for E-Commerce. My specialization is marketing in the agribusiness. 

    Here are some clients I worked and work with:

  • Literary Translation

    Thomas Bernhard’s “Walking”

    I’m currently finishing a major translation project from German into Portuguese: “Walking”, a short novel by my favourite author Thomas Bernhard. The book will be published by Editora Brasileira de Arte e Cultura late 2016.

    (…)

    Sprechen wir von einem Menschen, sagt Oehler, wie jetzt von Hollensteiner (und wenn von Hollensteiner, doch im Grunde von Karrer oder wenn von Karrer, so doch sehr oft im Grunde von Hollensteiner und so fort), sprechen wir doch immerfort auf der Grundlage eines Resultats. Wir sind Mathematiker, sagt Oehler, oder versuchen doch wenigstens immer, Mathematiker zu sein. Wenn wir denken, handelt es sich weniger um Philosophie, sagt Oehler, mehr um Mathematik. Es ist alles eine ungeheuerliche, haben wir sie von Anfang an unterbrechungslos aufgestellt, ganz einfache Rechnung. (…)

    (…)

    Quando falamos de alguém, Oehler diz, da forma como estamos falando agora de Hollensteiner (e quando falamos de Hollensteiner no fundo falamos de Karrer e quando falamos de Karrer, no fim quase sempre é de Hollensteiner que falamos e assim por diante), falamos no fim das contas sempre com base num resultado. Somos matemáticos, Oehler diz, ou pelo menos é sempre isso que tentamos ser. Quando pensamos, o que está em questão não é tanto filosofia, Oehler diz, é mais matemática. Tudo não passa de um cálculo monstruoso, e quando feito sem interrupção nenhuma desde o começo, um cálculo bem simples. (…)
