Subtitling, Voice-Over & Dubbing
Accurate subtitles, accessible captions, natural Voice-Over, and professionally adapted dubbing for multilingual audiovisual content.
Audiovisual localization must preserve meaning, timing, tone, emotion, and the viewer's experience across languages.
Words, Timing, and Voices That Work Together
Subtitles need to be accurate, readable, and synchronized with the screen. Voice-Over and dubbing require adapted scripts, appropriate voice talent, professional recording, and careful production. Randa Translation brings these services together in coordinated multilingual workflows for corporate videos, E-Learning, films, documentaries, digital media, broadcasts, events, and promotional content.
Projects may involve one service or a complete process covering transcription, translation, Time-Coding, captioning, script adaptation, voice casting, recording, synchronization, and final quality review.
Subtitling, Voice-Over, and dubbing serve different viewing and listening needs, but they rely on the same foundation: accurate source content, appropriate linguistic adaptation, technical precision, and awareness of the audience.
Subtitles translate or reproduce spoken dialogue as timed on-screen text. They must balance accuracy with reading speed, line length, timing, and visual context.
Accessibility captions may also include speaker identification, music cues, sound effects, and other audio information for deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences.
Voice-Over places a translated or adapted voice track over or alongside the original audio. Dubbing replaces the original dialogue with a target-language performance synchronized with the timing, emotion, and on-screen movement.
We review the content type, source material, intended audience, platform, target languages, accessibility needs, voice requirements, and technical specifications before defining the appropriate workflow.

Process
How it works
Content and Technical Assessment
We review the source video or audio, script or transcript, languages, duration, recording quality, audience, platform, accessibility needs, voice requirements, and technical specifications.
Workflow Definition
We confirm whether the project requires subtitles, captions, Voice-Over, narration, full dubbing, lip synchronization, character voices, or a coordinated combination of services.
Transcription and Script Preparation
The source dialogue is transcribed or reviewed. Scripts are translated and adapted for reading speed, natural speech, timing, tone, pronunciation, and performance requirements.
Timing, Casting, and Client Approval
Subtitle timing is prepared or reviewed. For voiced content, suitable voice profiles or samples are selected and presented for approval where required.
Subtitle Production or Voice Recording
Subtitles and captions are created and formatted, or the approved script is recorded in a controlled studio environment with appropriate direction.
Synchronization and Production
Subtitle files are synchronized with the media. Voice tracks are edited, aligned, mixed, and integrated with the audiovisual content according to the project scope.
Final Quality Review and Delivery
The final deliverables are reviewed for linguistic accuracy, readability, timing, synchronization, pronunciation, audio quality, formatting, and platform compatibility before delivery.
