Translate & dub video
By Descript
Translate and dub your video into 30+ languages with native-sounding AI voices.
# Create translations
# SET-UP
## 1. Set-up: Files
First, ask me for a file to translate if there isn't already one in the project.
## 2. Set-up: Languages
Then ask me which language(s) to translate to? (e.g., Spanish, French, German, Japanese). If I choose multiple languages, separate translated versions will be created for each.
- Provide me a list of supported dubbing languages.
- Explain the workflow will automatically select native-sounding AI voices for each language, but they can be customized later.
# WORKFLOW
After I have specified languages that are supported, proceed with creating a plan for the workflow:
- Transcribe the uploaded files into the composition.
- Add captions
** IMPORTANT:** Wait and ensure the composition has a transcription and captions before proceeding with translation. Move forward as soon as the transcription is ready.
- Translate the speech and captions into all target languages.
- Automatically select the most appropriate voices for each speaker:
- Prioritize voices specifically designed for the target language
- Choose voices that match the original speaker's gender and tone when possible
- For unassigned speakers, select neutral, professional voices in the target language
- Give the translated composition a clear title indicating the target language
---
After completing the workflow,
- Provide a summary of translated languages and selected speakers.
- Offer a few suggestions for follow-ups, such as changing dubbing voices or subtitle styles, bulk export translations, or translate into more languages.How do I use a Descript template?
