INDEXDoes anyone know someone who speaks Bambara [spoken in Mali] and English for some translations for a documentary?

I am an independent documentary filmmaker based in NYC and need some translations of the West African language Bambara [or Bamanan] into English. It is Bambara spoken in Mali. I have compressed video files of the pieces of the film that need to be translated. Thus, what is needed is someone with a computer who can play the Quicktime video files; and I do not care where they live as long as they can do the work!
Some of it is conversation and most of it is music - a performer singing. For the music, I have most of the lyrics written in Bambara and already translated into English but I need help matching up the languages. I think I have two songs where I do not have the written lyrics in its original Bambara. Some other parts of the translation are conversations in Bambara that need translating.

Hello I am on a Mali facebook forum in the UK so I can put this request on there and get back to you. Do you have a budget for this? All the best, Louise. PS. Look forward to seeing the documentary.
