The viewing decision
Video localisation starts with a viewing decision, not a camera list. The team must define who is watching, what that person already knows and which next action the film is allowed to ask for. For this commission the working focus is narrative decisions, source integrity, review ownership and technically correct masters.
Evidence before aesthetics
Bring one real customer situation, current footage and the exact claim that needs support. Localisation script and glossary is useful only when it preserves source truth and shows why the chosen scene belongs in this film rather than in a generic showreel.
A boundary that can be quoted
A quotable scope connects Localisation script and glossary, Caption or voice track, Localized master and QA record. It also names duration, aspect ratios, locations, cast, revisions, music, usage territory and the person who can approve the story before expensive production begins.
Production and review
Work moves from a decision-ready brief into Localisation script and glossary, then through Caption or voice track and finally Localized master and QA record. Reviews happen at script, representative frame or rough-cut gates; comments arrive by timecode and one owner resolves contradictions.
The failure to rehearse
The material failure to test is that endless revisions begin because no one separated story changes from technical corrections. A small representative scene should expose that risk before the full batch, shoot or render. If it fails, the team changes the claim, treatment or boundary instead of polishing the wrong answer.
Rights, versions and handover
Handover is more than one final file. It records edit versions, captions, masters, music and talent rights, source ownership, archive rules and platform checks. Acceptance means the team can verify a locked narrative, timecoded decisions, clean audio and masters verified on target platforms.
Localisation script and glossary

Before ordering Video localisation: seven decisions that protect the production
Questions people ask before buying
01What should be ready before Video localisation starts?+
Video localisation begins from one real audience situation because Localisation adapts spoken language, on-screen text, reading speed, cultural references and legal claims rather than swapping subtitles alone. Bring current assets, the claim to prove, required formats and the person who can approve Caption or voice track.
02How is the scope for Video localisation confirmed?+
Localisation script and glossary anchors the proposal; it also fixes Caption or voice track, Localized master and QA record, duration, locations, rights, revisions, formats, exclusions and acceptance before production.
03Which risk should be tested first for Video localisation?+
Caption or voice track must expose whether endless revisions begin because no one separated story changes from technical corrections. A representative scene or cut answers that question before the full production is committed.
04What counts as acceptance for Video localisation?+
Localized master and QA record is accepted against evidence of a locked narrative, timecoded decisions, clean audio and masters verified on target platforms; visual polish without that evidence does not close this commission.
05Can Video localisation begin as a pilot?+
Video localisation can begin with one script, representative scene or destination format. That pilot tests “video localisation with subtitles voice-over and graphics adaptation” before the complete scope is commissioned.
