VIDEO LOCALIZATION AND RELEASE · Workflow idea

Help more people hear your video—in their language.

Prepare dubbed versions of an approved video in selected languages, then organize the finished files for review and possible distribution. Give a reviewer time to check translation, pronunciation, timing, captions, and rights. Get appropriate consent for voices and appearances, and require approval of each exact video, audience, and destination before anything is shared externally.

The handoff

Dubbed video drafts in the requested languages with source context and an approval status for each destination.

Keep in mind

A translation or generated voice may change meaning, misrepresent a speaker, or use a person’s likeness without suitable permission. Confirm rights and consent for the source material and voices, have fluent reviewers check each version, and approve the exact files, captions, destinations, and audiences before upload or public distribution.
