Ads dubbing for commercials that persuade in any language
Transcreation, native voice casting and broadcast-quality recording for multi-market ad campaigns in 25+ languages.
Ads dubbing replaces the voice track of a commercial with a translated, culturally adapted performance by native voice talent, delivered at the exact duration of the original spot. The script is transcreated, not translated literally, so the persuasion survives the language change. Orion Translations dubs commercials in more than 25 languages for multi-market campaigns.
Advertising only works in the audience's own language
In the fast-paced world of global advertising, reaching diverse audiences decides the success of a campaign. A well-dubbed commercial does not just convey the original message; it adapts to the linguistic and cultural nuances of the target audience, and people remember messages better in their native language.
Orion Translations specialises in dubbing commercials with authenticity and cultural relevance: native-speaking voice professionals, careful adaptation of humour and references, and rigorous quality checks on every project, so your brand sounds local in every market it enters.
What does an ads dubbing project include?
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1. Transcreation | The script is adapted for persuasion and written to the exact spot length in each language |
| 2. Casting | Native voice talent matched to your original's tone; samples sent for approval |
| 3. Recording | Studio session directed against picture for timing and brand register |
| 4. Mix and delivery | Broadcast-quality mix delivered at required durations and formats per channel |
Which formats do we dub?
TV and radio spots, online video and paid social formats, YouTube pre-roll, product explainers and point-of-sale loops. For campaigns that prefer the original voices to remain audible, subtitled versions can be produced alongside the dub; see our subtitling services. For long-form brand films, our full dubbing service covers lip-sync adaptation.
How much does ads dubbing cost?
The price is driven by spot length, voices, languages and usage rights, because talent buyouts differ between broadcast, online and social use. Orion Translations quotes a fixed price per language, including transcreation, casting, studio and mix, within one business day: info@oriontranslations.com or +34 932 204 590.
How long does it take?
Roughly one week per language for a standard spot, from transcreation to broadcast-ready mix, with all target languages produced in parallel for simultaneous multi-market launches. Campaign deadlines are confirmed as firm dates at the quote stage.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Ads dubbing replaces the spoken audio of a commercial with a translated, culturally adapted performance in the target language. Unlike document translation, the script is transcreated to keep the persuasive effect and re-recorded by native voice talent to fit the exact timing of the spot, so the advert feels made for the market rather than imported.
- Because adverts persuade with wordplay, rhythm and cultural references that rarely survive literal translation. A slogan translated word-for-word can fall flat or even offend. Transcreation rebuilds the message for the target culture while preserving the brand intent, and only then does recording begin. Orion Translations includes transcreation in every ads dubbing project.
- The adapted script is written to length before recording: a 20-second spot stays a 20-second spot in every language. Languages expand and contract differently, so the adapter balances message and duration, and the voice director confirms sync against picture in the studio. Broadcast deliverables come back at the exact durations your media plan requires.
- Yes. We cast native voice talent against your original: age, energy, register and brand tone. You receive casting samples to approve before recording, and for multi-market campaigns we coordinate casting across languages so the brand sounds consistent everywhere.
- Pricing depends on spot length, number of voices, target languages and usage rights (broadcast, online, paid social), since talent buyouts vary by medium and territory. A single-voice online spot costs far less than a multi-voice TV campaign with broad usage. Orion Translations quotes a fixed price per language within one business day of seeing your spot.
- A standard 20-30 second spot is typically transcreated, cast, recorded and mixed within about a week per language, with languages running in parallel for multi-market launches. Urgent campaign deadlines can be compressed once casting is approved, and we confirm a firm delivery date at the quote stage.
