Audiovisual Translation

The past years, Cross Border Translation has turned itself into a true expert when it comes to audiovisual translations, from video scripts to subtitling to voice-overs.

Video Script Translations

Explainer videos. An increasingly common occurence that I'm sure you've noticed. Perhaps you've even had your own explainer video made, or are considering having one. In any case, Cross Border Translation is very active and experienced in translating the scripts for these and other kinds of videos. If you want we can also provide you with a voice-over with a voice actor of your choice!

Subtitling

Naturally, audiovisual translation is not complete without subtitling, and this is yet another area where CBT offers the necessary expertise! Send us your video and we will provide you with a version with attractive subtitles, in the language and style of your choice!

Desktop Publishing, also known as DTP, concerns all the work needed to turn a digital product into a client-ready product. For example, a video delivered with subtitles, ready for publishing, or a translated brochure that can be forwarded on to the printer immediately. Cross Border Translation is your go-to expert when it comes to offering Desktop Publishing as an additional service to translation!

As indicated earlier, at Cross Border Translation we do a lot of in-house translation (see Core Languages). But we also translate into other languages on the daily, thanks to our extensive, global network of translators and editors.

Middle-Eastern Languages

Middle-Eastern languages such as Turkish and Arabic are growing in importance in Europe and the West, but so are less well-known languages such as Farsi, Dari, and Pashto. In addition, the Middle-East is a rapidly growing market, with major business hubs such as Istanbul, Dubai, and Cairo. Cross Border Translation translates to and from all the major Middle-Eastern languages on a regular basis!
