About
I’m Thorsten Distler, a certified copywriter and translator based in Bayreuth, Germany. Since 2002, I’ve supported clients across sport, health, IT, gaming, and other industries by producing audience-focused copy and high-quality translations that match the brief, brand voice, and text type.
My work combines linguistic precision with persuasive writing: I analyze source texts carefully, research culture-specific meaning, and then create clear, engaging target texts for websites, apps, books, marketing materials, and in-game content. I also deliver editorial services such as editing, proofreading, subtitling/dubbing, MTPE, and voice-over support—always aiming for style, clarity, and impact.
