Omni’s in-house production studio plays a central role in audio and video translation, allowing us to localize voice, timing, on-screen text, and visuals without relying on third parties.
With decades of experience and long-standing client relationships, Omni acts as a dependable extension of your team—helping you deliver multilingual audio and video content that is clear and effective for U.S. and global audiences.
There are essentially two methods for creating a foreign language video, depending on whether the audio track is replaced (dubbing) or not (subtitling/closed captioning).
Although both methods can convey your message to a global audience, they are fundamentally different. The cost savings of subtitling must be carefully weighed against the much greater effectiveness of dubbing.
Dubbing with Lip-Synch
For videos with on-camera speakers, the most efficient technique is lip-synching, where the person on screen appears to be speaking the foreign language. This requires extensive adaptation of the original text in order to match the lips.
Dubbing with Interview Style
Also known as U.N. style, interview style makes no attempt to follow the lips, but only the general rhythm, expressions, and pauses of the speaker. The English is generally kept low in the background to ensure a better sound experience for the audience.
Dubbing with Localized Voice-Over
If the video does not contain anyone on camera, the voice-over track is simply replaced altogether. Localized voice over is the easiest to produce since it typically involves a single narrator, and time constraints can be handled by an experienced translator.
