VOICEOVERS & SUBTITLES
We support overseas corporate public relations, management speeches, and other forms of video communication.
As a video-related service, Idea Institute offers professionally translated subtitles, voiceover scripts, and dubbing scripts.
We also perform audio transcription, audio recording, and video editing in collaboration with the video production division of one of our Group companies, making us a one-stop source for video localization.

Voiceover translation requires a high level of skill, as the translation needs to sound natural in the target language while adjusting the length appropriately without sacrificing the tone of the original language. When you partner with Idea Institute, you can take comfort in the fact that we use translators experienced in video translation. We also dispatch narrators after translation, attend the recording, and check the finished video.

Distribution of media
Like voiceovers, subtitle translation has many constraints, putting the technical abilities of the translator to the test. At Idea Institute, we create natural-sounding translations within strict character limits and preserve the meaning in the original language while also considering the cultural context of the target language. We then confirm the finished video and propose alternatives as needed.

We can transcribe recorded audio of businesses negotiations, conferences, seminars, and more. A third party checks the text transcription against the original audio, and then the final data is refined for delivery by deleting unnecessary portions, etc. Please feel free to consult with us about transcription in any language.
