Voice-over and subtitling for multilingual video

Voice-over lays translated narration over the original audio, which is lowered but still audible. It is fast, cost-effective, and well suited to interviews, documentaries, and corporate messages. Dubbing replaces the original speech entirely, with timing adapted to the speaker, and is the right choice for training, advertising, and entertainment where immersion matters.

Subtitles keep the original voice and add translated text on screen. They are the most economical option and work well for social media, where many viewers watch without sound. Subtitles can add clutter in scenes with many speakers or rapid dialogue, so we will recommend the approach that fits your content and budget, or combine them.

Every voice-over translation begins with a script translated by a qualified linguist who is a native speaker of the target language and experienced in your subject matter. The script is adapted for timing, reviewed, and approved by you before any recording takes place.

Our voice artists and translators go through a careful screening process. We look for fluency, cultural sensitivity, neutrality, discretion, research skills, and a track record of meeting deadlines, because translating for the ear demands as much discipline as translating for the page.
