Specialists in localisation for Portuguese and Spanish-speaking markets

Did your company create a campaign in English, Italian or German and now need to adapt it for Portugal or Spain? Audiovisual localisation is not just translating the text: it means ensuring your message sounds natural, credible and culturally relevant to the target audience. We handle the complete adaptation — voice, video, sound design and translation — from any source language into Portuguese, Spanish, English and more, with native speakers and a technical team specialised in audio and video adaptation.

Any source language into Portuguese, Spanish, English or other languages: we adapt campaigns created in English, Italian, French, German or any other language.

Complete service with a single partner: translation, native voice-over, dubbing, video editing, sound design and post-production. No need to coordinate multiple suppliers.

Experience in demanding sectors: pharmaceutical, financial, tourism and technology, with high quality standards and ISO 9001 certification.

Specialists in European Portuguese and Castilian Spanish: two markets frequently underserved by agencies that confuse European Portuguese with Brazilian or neutral Spanish with Castilian Spanish.

What the audiovisual localisation service includes

  • Script translation and adaptation: not a literal translation. The text is adapted to sound natural in the target language, respecting the rhythm and impact of the original message.
  • Native voice-over: selection of the right voice talent or actor for the tone, gender and style of each project.
  • Dubbing and lip-sync: when the video features characters speaking, we ensure precise synchronisation and broadcast quality.
  • Video editing: adaptation of graphics, on-screen text and visual elements for the target language.
  • Sound design and post-production: mixing, mastering and delivery in the required technical formats.
  • Subtitling: creation of synchronised subtitles in any language, as a complement or alternative to dubbing.

The difference between translation and audiovisual localisation

Many companies make the mistake of requesting only a script translation and then recording with any available voice. Audiovisual localisation goes much deeper:

  • The script is adapted, not just translated: expressions, cultural references and speaking rhythm are adjusted for the target market.
  • The voice talent is selected specifically for the project and the market, not assigned by availability.
  • Audio and video are treated together to ensure technical and aesthetic consistency in the final version.
  • The result is content that Portuguese or Spanish audiences recognise as their own, not as a foreign adaptation.

Frequently Asked Questions about Audiovisual Localisation


Audiovisual localisation is the process of adapting video and audio content from one language and culture into another market, so that the final result sounds natural and credible to the target audience. It goes far beyond translating text: it includes cultural adaptation of the script, selection of native voice talent, dubbing or voice-over, editing of graphics and on-screen text, sound design and full post-production. A well-localised campaign does not look like a foreign adaptation: it looks as if it was created specifically for that market.


Translation converts text from one language to another. Audiovisual localisation adapts the entire experience of a piece of content for a new market, including tone, cultural references, speaking rhythm, voice, video and visual elements. For example, a localised advertising campaign does not just have the text translated: it has a native speaker with the right accent, a script adapted to sound natural in European Portuguese or Castilian Spanish, and graphics updated for the target language. The result is substantially more credible and effective.


We can localise audiovisual content from and into more than 70 languages, with native speakers selected for each project. We have particular expertise in European Portuguese and Castilian Spanish, two markets frequently underserved by agencies that confuse European Portuguese with Brazilian Portuguese or neutral Spanish with Castilian Spanish. For multilingual projects across several markets simultaneously, we are a single point of contact for all coordination.


Yes. We localise content from any source language into Castilian Spanish, with native speakers and in-depth knowledge of the Spanish market. We regularly work with Portuguese and international companies that need to adapt campaigns, institutional videos and training content for Spain. We also have the capacity to handle Portugal and Spain simultaneously, which significantly simplifies coordination for companies with a presence across the Iberian Peninsula.


The cost depends on several factors: content duration, number of languages, technical complexity, whether dubbing or voice-over is required, intended use (TV, internet, global distribution) and delivery deadlines. We do not publish price lists because each project is different and deserves a tailored proposal. Contact us with your project brief and we will send a detailed quote in less than 24 hours, with no commitment.


Yes. We work with companies that need to adapt training courses and internal modules for new markets, including native voice-over, script adaptation and video editing.
