Which Video Translation Service Should You Choose?

There’s a lot to consider when planning your video localization project. Should you use subtitles or a voiceover—or both? What special requirements are involved when you translate a video to English? You want to get your video right the first time. That’s why it’s important to choose a translation company with the experience, team and tools to help you execute your vision—on time and on budget. JR Language is here to help you explore all your options and guide you through the planning process, step by step.

Video Translation Services: Getting Started

The process begins with an in-depth “kickoff” discussion of your needs and objectives. We’ll begin by asking you a couple of initial questions:

Once we have this information, the next step is diving into the details of your project. We’ll want to know:

Is there a specific deadline you’re trying to meet?
Who is your target audience? (i.e. their location and language)
How long is your original source video? Do you need to keep the same length in the translated version?
Do you have a finished script you can provide to us?
What is the format of the source video? What format do you need the translated video to be in?
Do you have extra footage to accommodate any expansion that results from translation?
How many speakers are featured in the video?
Is there any translatable text embedded in the video? Do you need that text translated?
Are you able to provide us with background music for the video?

Once you’ve answered our questions, JR Language will present you with a free video translation services quote that reflects your specific requirements. This quote, which details all the project specifications, includes the use of native human translators with a minimum of five years of experience.

Which is Better: Subtitles, Voiceover—or Both?

Most companies find that using subtitles and voiceover in their video translation serves their end users best. Whether or not you use both depends on your budget and the experience you want your audiences to have. Keep in mind that:

Audio and Video Transcription Services

Once you approve our quote for video translation services, the next step is to work with the transcript of the video or audio. If you have a transcript ready, great! If not, we can create a transcript from the source file you send us.

After the transcript is ready, it’s time to perform the translation. Your translation is done by a highly qualified translator to make sure it’s linguistically and culturally accurate. Your transcripts are time-coded to precisely match the placement of the translated version in the video or audio file.

When your translation is finished, we’ll then start creating the subtitles and voiceover. Since these are separate products used in the final multilingual production of your video, they can be completed at the same time.

Multilingual Subtitling

After your script has been translated into the language you want, our team creates the subtitle files. We’ll either replace the subtitles in your original video or, if your video didn’t have subtitles, add new ones. The nature of your video’s subtitles depends on the decisions you made during our initial kickoff meeting.

Video Voiceover and Dubbing

If you’re happy with the transcript JR Language has provided, we’ll tap into our network of voice talent and choose the professionals that are the best fit for your job. Once the voiceover is complete, a final internal review takes place. Our production team makes sure your voiceover files are 100% complete and properly timed. They also ensure that the voiceover follows the audio translation and is appropriate for your target audience.

Video Translation Services Frequently Asked Questions

What is video translation?

Video translation involves the translation of audio and visual content from one language to another. Subtitling, voice-over, or dubbing are some methods by which a video is translated and localized to reach audiences globally.

What languages do you offer video translation services for?

Our video translation services are available in 100 languages. So, by using the English version, our translation company can translate your videos and audio files to the language of your target audience. Please indicate specific language needs.

What kinds of videos get translated?

Companies and organizations frequently use video translation services for:

Video tutorials
Marketing and advertising campaigns
Corporate training videos
Entertainment content
eLearning

How is video translation priced?

Video translation service prices vary based on multiple aspects, including video length, language pair, and specific services required for video production support. Other factors impacting pricing are subject matter, number of speakers in the video, and presence of on-screen text.

How long is the process of video translation?

Turnaround time for video translation services depends on several aspects:

Video length
Audio quality
File type
On-screen text
Use of Subtitles or voice-over
Other services required to support video production

All these factors and more determine the amount of work involved. For some video translation projects, we transcribe the original audio and timecode, then translate the text, add subtitles, and provide voice-overs. The process could differ for other projects- we might begin by translating the transcript developed by the client.

Specify your timeframe beforehand to help us ensure your video translation project is completed successfully within your desired deadline.

How do dubbing and subtitling differ?

The subtitling process focuses on adding text—in the translated or original language—over the video. In contrast, dubbing involves replacing the original audio with the translated audio in the target language.

Subtitling is faster and less expensive than dubbing but is best suited only for certain video types. Depending on your specific needs, videos will have subtitles, dubbing, or both added for their language versions.
