The future of video localization
In this increasingly digital age, more and more people are producing video content than ever. In fact, it has become de rigueur for even a small entity to produce videos regularly and put them out there.
It’s important to point out, however, that not all video content is created equal. Some videos perform way better than others out there.
There are many different reasons why a video might outshine other videos. One often-overlooked reason is video localization.
What is video localization?
Simply put, video localization is the process of reviewing a video and making sure that the language it uses is compatible with the culture of its target audience(s).
Often, when people speak, they use phrases, sayings and expressions that are familiar to them but not necessarily familiar to the people who are going to be watching the content, perhaps in a completely different part of the world. It’s also easy to make a reference to something a target audience may not be completely familiar with, causing confusion.
Re-recording the video? Not necessary
You might think at first. that this would entail re-recording the video and possibly having to have multiple videos for multiple audiences. Fortunately, this is almost always not the case.
Localization can be achieved in most cases with any combination of subtitles and voiceover/dubbing, depending on the budget available and the nature of the source content. This allows you to make your content-neutral and/or produce differently-targeted versions of your content without having to record any more video whatsoever.
Why it’s important to localize videos specially after COVID-19
The pandemic has absolutely and permanently changed culture the world over, in so many different ways.
But, even the worst and most traumatic events have a silver lining somewhere, especially for savvy entrepreneurs who know how to look for them. This is exactly why video localization is so key for so many companies in this new era.
Because people are consuming so much more online content than ever before, your audience as a video content producer has expanded greatly. But, to really take full advantage of these new people in your audience, you will have to make sure your video has better reach and relatability to reach all these new people. This is where video localization comes in, and this is why video localization is such a wise investment in today’s world.
