What is video translation?
Video translation means translating languages based on original video works and making them multilingual.
There are several ways of multilingualization. In general, there are ways such as displaying the translated language in text as subtitles, and replacing the translated language with the original audio.
Utilization of video translation
The advantage of translating videos is, of course, that the content can be understood by viewers who do not understand the language of the original version.
Video translation can be used in many scenarios such as learning, promotion, and entertainment.
It can be used in a wide range of ways, including as a communication support tool for providing effective information to the increasing number of foreign workers and diversifying citizens within companies and local communities.
