Media Localization

Freelance Media Localization Specialists

Media localization specialists make audio-visual content work in another language. They create subtitles and captions, adapt scripts for dubbing, write and time audio description, coordinate voiceover, and meet the platform and broadcast standards that streaming services and regulators require.

When to hire one

  • You have video that needs subtitles or closed captions to a specific platform standard such as Netflix, Amazon, or Disney.
  • You need a translated script adapted for lip-sync dubbing.
  • You need audio description or SDH captions to meet broadcast accessibility rules.
  • You have a multilingual voiceover project that needs casting, direction, and delivery.
