What Is Video Translation?

Video translation has emerged as one of the most effective technologies that has helped organizations communicate their messages to multilingual audiences in an accurate and professional manner. With the expansion of the services of Elite Translation Office in the provision of certified translation, organizations can now access the solutions of the accreditation company that operates to the highest quality standards without losing the visual aspect of the content delivered in the video.

For better clarification, here is the difference between the processes of dubbing, transcription, and subtitle translation: Dubbing: The dubbed version will allow the original audio to be replaced by a new voice speaking the target language, providing a completely natural viewing experience, without the viewers being exposed to text on the screen. Dubbing will be the best tool for marketing videos since the viewer will be fully engaged in the content. Transcription: This entails processing all the words used orally within the video to create written text. This transcription process may be applied to videos covering areas such as education, administration, and law, among other fields. This tool helps organizations to create written documents from audio materials. Subtitle Translation (Subtitles): This approach allows the display of the translated subtitles at the foot of the screen. This approach helps in retaining the original sound. This method is effective and economical. This method helps the audience grasp the message quickly. They comprehend the message because the tone of the presentation is retained.

Types of Video Translation Services

Video translation has become an essential element in the corporate world for those institutions in the KSA using visual content to convey information with precision and professionalism. With the growing services available from Elite Translation Office, the guiding example of professional translation service providers, the paramount task has become the conveyance of precise information, considering the rising dependence of various sectors on video content as their key communication tool. For a clear understanding of the video translation services that exist, the following explanation is provided:

Corporate Translation: Employed during the presentation of corporate ideas in conferences and business meetings. The translation of corporate information ensures the proper dissemination of information, more so when involving corporate partners globally.

Advertising Translation: This form of translation is more inclined towards creative and marketing-oriented translations in order to cater to the targeted audience.

Translation for Training and E-Learning: This is important in ensuring that training and learning content is translated for ease of understanding by students who may speak different languages.

Legal Translation: It calls for high accuracy levels and specialized vocabulary, making it appropriate for legal texts, legal documents, and legal business meeting reports. Social Media Video Localization: modifies the content in accordance with the local culture, maintaining the intended message in an optimized manner that is best suited for social media platforms that emphasize the need for quick and relevant messaging.

Video Translation vs. Automated Translation Tools

Video translation services are a basic requirement for those organizations that require precise translations, particularly because the Elite Translation Office is one of the shining examples of the kind of translation agencies that are delivering translations of the highest possible standards by human translation methods, where translation services are performed by humans, not by translation software, ensuring linguistic accuracy. In order to show the distinctions clearly, the following is a summary comparison:

• Human Video Translation: This type of video translation incorporates the use of professional translators who comprehend the culture and meaning of the content. When a human translator translates the video content, he or she takes care of the cultural sensitivities involved. The translator makes sure the terms used in the content correspond to the industry involved. This may include the legal industry or the marketing industry.

• Automated Tools: Fast but narrow in scope. They do literal or erroneous translation with a lack of cultural insights. They lack the sensitivity for differences in dialects, as well as marketing tone and feeling, settling for poor results that either confuse or offend the target group.

• Human Translation Improves Marketing Campaigns: A human translator views content as a message, not as words. A human translator chooses words based on the tone of marketing; this helps in marketing campaigns and engages the audience.

• Computer-Assisted Tools are Ineffective in Creative Content: Humour, idioms, metaphors, and symbolic references are often translated literally, which can result in a loss of meaning or an embarrassing mistranslation. This can be damaging to the company’s reputation and its communication strategy.

Challenges in Video Translation

Video translation is accompanied by its own set of challenges that sometimes tend to influence the reception of the content among the viewers in the new region, especially in the region of Saudi Arabia, where there are innumerable dialects and backgrounds. This is all the more reason to recognize the need and significance of expert groups such as the Elite Translation Office to deal with these intricacies accurately. Differences Are Managed, Embraced, or Leveraged:

• Dialects and Cultural Variations: Dialects or variations in speech may cause tone or intent issues, especially in marketing or social media videos. It is necessary that the translator be aware of cultural variations and audience behavior.

• Audio Text Synchronization: Synchronization of translations with lip actions and timing of the scene is important here because synchronization problems or awkward timing can unnerve viewers.

• Technical and Legal Terms: Accuracy has to be very high in this case, as discrepancies can reverse the meaning. Terminological accuracy is important in this case. 

• Text Laying Out and Screen Integration: Subtitles should be short and snappy and easy to read. They have to be positioned in such a way as not to distract the audience.
