Film, TV, and Media Translation

Language That Speaks to the Audience

Audiovisual translation is among the most creative and specialized disciplines in the translation field. It is not merely a literal conversion of text—it is about preserving the meaning, atmosphere, and rhythm of a message, ensuring it feels just as natural and emotionally resonant in the target language as the original. Our translators possess direct experience in film, television, and advertising production, giving them a deep understanding of the specific demands regarding language, timing, and target demographics. We work for film productions, television networks, streaming platforms, advertising agencies, and independent creators alike.

What We Translate

• Film and television screenplays (dialogues, voiceovers, subtitles, dubbing scripts, post-production scripts)

• Subtitles and dialogue transcriptions (subtitling, closed captions) – we provide translation, spotting/timing, and technical formatting of subtitles

• Commercials and promotional videos (TV commercials, corporate videos, image clips, product presentations)

• Documentaries and educational programming (scientific, wildlife, cultural, historical, social, and other documentaries)

• Multimedia content for the web and social media (YouTube videos, podcasts, live streams, online presentations)

• Radio broadcasts and audio recordings (transcriptions and translations of recordings, dubbing templates, radio campaigns)

The Translation Process

Materials submission – The client sends us the video, audio, script, or subtitle file (e.g., .srt, .vtt, .txt).

Analysis and translator selection – Based on the type of programming, language style, and target audience.

Translation with timing and style in mind – We ensure the text is synchronized with both image and sound.

Native speaker proofreading – To preserve the natural flow, tone, and impact of the message.

Final delivery – You receive the finished translation or subtitle file, ready for immediate deployment.
