Your Choices
Our professional staff has experience using several different techniques to adapt videos or audio tracks to other languages. These include:

o  Lip-synching, where foreign language actors' voices are carefully dubbed in place of on-camera actor;
o  Voice-over production, a UN-style technique that replaces the existing narrator's voice with a narrator speaking another language, yet allows the original audio to be heard at a suppressed level in the background;
o  On-screen text replacement and subtitling: an on-screen written translation of the original audio, which remains unaltered.
 

While most clients choose voice-over narration, subtitling or lip-synching may be preferable for certain situations. VMRG has an inventory of almost 200 male and female professional voices to choose from for more than 20 of the most common foreign languages. Professional narrator voice samples are available on request. Tape samples can be provided to help the client select the most appropriate voices.

The Process
Before recording the voice-over, lip-synching, or typesetting the subtitles, the original script must first be translated. Essential in this type of translation work is the timing, editing, and fitting of the script for video so it will exactly match the existing audio and images. Our translators are experienced in converting scripts to video and very familiar with the timing requirements.

Once a client approves the translation of the script, work in the studio begins. There the foreign language narrator listens to the English through a headset while reciting the translated script. We record each section several times until the monitor is satisfied with the timing and quality of the recording. Finally, the foreign language narration is inserted in place of the English on the master, guaranteeing synchronization with the picture.

Lip-Synching: for programs with a great deal of on-camera talking, VMRG provides lip-synching services ("dubbing for video") in all common commercial languages. For this work we use only highly specialized, experienced professionals and state-of-the-art facilities.

Voice-Over Production: An economical way to create foreign language versions of your video programs or segments is to replace the English with standard voice-over narration, including UN-style narration to indicate that the voice you hear is a substitute for the on-camera speaker. Productions using this technique play a few words of the original audio at regular volume in the beginning but quickly subdue the original track (it remains slightly audible in the background) as the new foreign language is overlayed in the foreground.

On-Screen Text Replacement: using this technique, we create new on-screen text for any language usually done with Photoshop or Illustrator.

A/V Production: we take care of all steps to create or produce your audio-visual program, and are able to provide audio as .WAV, .AVI, or MIDI files on DAT or a variety of video formats. From the typesetting of labels or packaging materials in foreign languages to the color standard conversion (PAL, SECAM) of videos, we coordinate and perform as much of the process as you want.

Transcription: we also offer transcription of cassette tapes, micro cassette tapes, video footage, and multimedia programs in over 140 languages.
