  • A first meeting with the client was held to gather information about the expected style, voice tone, target audience(s) and technical requirements. Due to the medium and the specific audience, several aspects had to be taken into account: translation length, speed of speech, on-screen synchronization, etc.

 

  • We recruited translators, reviewers, and voice talent teams.

 

  • We scheduled studio time for 24 languages.

 

  • Constant communication between project stakeholders was ensured through the Microsoft Team Website platform.

 

Weekly assessment of the translated material and process adjustments were discussed with the client
