more than translation
Writing connects us
Wait. What is Transcreation?
Translating for an entertainment medium is not like translating a catalog or a user’s manual. It requires creativity and the ability to connect with the spirit and intent of the original source. In fact, it is a form of content creation more akin to writing than translation, particularly one involving languages unrelated to each other, such as English and Asian languages.
Why it is important
Localizing entertainment content needs an understanding of the way it should be expressed and presented across different countries and cultures. The meaning and expression can vary greatly, even for the same exact content.
How we approach this work
Dragonbaby draws on the experience and confidence gained over more than a quarter of a century of localizing some of the world’s best known IP’s, such as Pokémon, Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill and many others. We carefully select the most essential elements of your content and work as creative copywriters.
