Bringing Multimedia to Life for Every Market
Multimedia localization customizes audio, video, and visual content to make it accessible and relevant for audiences across languages and cultures. By adapting each piece of content—whether it’s training videos, podcasts, or animations—you create an experience that feels familiar and engaging for every viewer and listener, wherever they are.
Video Localization
Videos are a powerful way to communicate across cultures, but they must feel native to each audience. Video localization brings in local voices, visuals, and translations to make sure every viewer feels at home.
Did you know? 80% of viewers are more likely to engage with video content in their native language.
Video Localization Services Include:
- Voice-over/Dubbing: Native-speaking voice actors recreate the audio.
- Subtitling: Translated subtitles ensure accessibility while retaining the original audio.
- Visual Adaptation: Modifying on-screen text, symbols, and colors to suit local norms.
Graphic and Animation Localization
Visuals can convey powerful messages, and by adapting graphics and animations to fit cultural expectations, they become more impactful for each audience.
Visuals to Consider for Localization:
- Text in Graphics: Translates any text within images or animations for seamless viewing.
- Cultural Sensitivities: Adapts colors, symbols, and imagery to align with local norms.
- Animation Pacing: Adjusts timing, transitions, and visual effects based on regional preferences.
Audio Localization
Audio localization adapts tone, rhythm, and expression to suit local listeners, creating messages that sound natural and engaging. Whether it’s a virtual training module, instructional narration, or product tutorial, localized audio feels more relatable and effective. For example, training modules can be adapted to reflect regional language nuances, with narrations that use familiar accents and dialects, while product tutorials may incorporate music and sound effects that resonate with each culture. Key elements of this process include adapting scripts for cultural relevance, matching voice-over accents and tones to the audience, and selecting background music that aligns with local preferences.
