Why translate English videos into German?

German-speaking audiences hold dubbing to a high standard and often prefer content in German, especially for training and technical topics. German runs about 30% longer than English, so the text has to be adapted, not just translated. We calibrate every segment and have a human check pacing, pronunciation and subtitles.

What matters from English to German

  • 01

    Text expands by about 30%

    Without calibration, voices rush and subtitles overflow. We adapt the phrasing per segment so the German version keeps the original pacing.

  • 02

    Compound words

    Long compound words need careful subtitle segmentation. Line breaks are checked during quality control.

  • 03

    Sie or du is a company decision

    The register shapes how your brand sounds in German. It is set in the glossary with your team and applied everywhere.
