aykon United Kingdom ASKER @philgoddard: 20:25 Jan 25, 2017  that is really funny. what are the chances! i have a few other questions, maybe you can help. i'll contact u directly. philgoddard United States 19:05 Jan 25, 2017  In the bit I'm doing, the first word of the voiceover is "Landau", which is where the guy lives, and we see a street sign reading Welcome to Landau. This is described as an Antexter, so I think Steffen's "lead-in" works. Or you could say "establishing shot", though German usually uses the English term. philgoddard United States How weird... 18:50 Jan 25, 2017  I'd never seen this word before in thirty years of translating, and then it popped up on ProZ and a job I'm doing, both on the same day. But I now realise it's because I'm doing the same job as you! aykon United Kingdom ASKER 12:07 Jan 25, 2017  i think it only appears when each model builder speaks for the first time, i.e. they are introduced. usually, there is a presenter speaking, but then they speak. Steffen Walter Germany Lead-in/intro piece 11:38 Jan 25, 2017  Thank you for the additional information. I do think that these are brief lead-in/intro pieces to each of the model builders. aykon United Kingdom ASKER 11:22 Jan 25, 2017  yes, it's a documentary about model building. different model builders are visited and they speak. might be, that the "antexter" only appears the first time when they are introduced. i'll check. Steffen Walter Germany Documentary 10:35 Jan 25, 2017  Does this refer to some sort of documentary? Ramey Rieger (X) Germany Hey Aykon 10:32 Jan 25, 2017  I only know the term from when a character is introduced, something like 'enter'. But it can also be that the character is writing an sms :-) Automatic update in 00:

lead-in author Explanation: If it were "Antextung" ok, but it's "Antexter" so I'd say it is the author of a lead-in.     https://www.journalistenkolleg.de/lexikon-journalismus/antexten	Mack Tillman Germany Local time: 02:36 Native speaker of: German, English
Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer) neutral  Steffen Walter: I believe 'Antexter' is indeed used in reference to the copy/text itself, rather than to an author or presenter. Compare usage of '(An)teaser' in German. 12 mins
