Why translate English videos into French?

French-speaking audiences are used to dubbed content and expect it to sound natural. French is spoken across Europe, Canada and Africa, which makes it a strong second language for training, product and premium content. We handle the full workflow, including the choice between European and Canadian French.

What matters from English to French

  • 01

    French runs longer

    French text is usually 15 to 20% longer than English. The translation is calibrated per segment to keep the pacing without rushing the voices.

  • 02

    France or Canada

    European French suits Europe and French-speaking Africa, while audiences in Quebec expect their own vocabulary. The variant is set before production.

  • 03

    Tu or vous

    Corporate training usually addresses viewers as vous, creator content often as tu. The register is fixed in the glossary and applied to voices and subtitles.
