Translation of audio/video

Translation from audio and video media has appeared quite recently, but quickly became a very popular service. Since any area of activity today is related to the listening or viewing of multimedia content, there is an urgent need for its understanding and apprehension, which is impossible without a high-quality situational translation. Machine, often “built-in” translation does not convey the corpulence of dialogs and speech features. After all, audio/video translation is a combination of oral and written components, often carried out from various media and formats (online, DVD-ROMs, flash-media, audio-files, etc.). Therefore, translators treat this type of work as rather complicated, but interesting.

«OpenSpace» Translation Agency – qualified translation of audio and video into 45 languages of the world!

Translation of audio recordings and video materials is an opportunity to work with the language in dynamics, therefore our experts “keep abreast” of all language innovations and contact continuously with native speakers. Besides, in order to do a high-quality translation of an audio track and a video sequence, one need to possess the appropriate equipment and knowledge in audiovisual translation, which is almost the same as simultaneous translation “live”, with the only difference being that one can click on the pause and play the material again. Our translators possess such skills and perform their work not only efficiently, but also quickly, since it is the aspect mostly sought by our customers.

What material is classified as the audio and video translation:

• education (audio books, training videos, seminars, trainings, curricula etc.);
• business (presentations, conferences, business trainings, training seminars, interviews with experts, video tutorials, etc.);
• marketing (commercials, presentations, educational videos, YouTube blogs, educational movies, webinars etc.);
• television and radio (videos of all genres, movies, cartoons, reports, songs, interviews, general educational and entertainment programs, etc.);
• regulatory issues (interviews, court records, etc.).
