Deepdub’s Solution

Topic.com leveraged Deepdub’s hybrid model, a blend of human-powered expertise and cutting-edge technology. They utilized our AI voice guide (voice-to-voice) solution to generate 332 distinct voices, each with unique acting from 4 voice actors, while employing automated voice casting and voice referencing, eliminating any need to bring actors in for retakes. This fusion of human expertise and cutting-edge technology directly tackles issues our clients encounter in the traditional localization process:

Maintaining consistent voice quality
Efficiently generating diverse character voices
Meeting tight deadlines
Ensuring accurate language adaptation
Facilitating flexible iterations and retakes

As part of our expert-led production process, they were also allocated a dedicated production project manager to streamline coordination from intake to quality control and delivery, an account manager, as well as in-house adapters and a production team.

“Deepdub lets us closely honor the emotion and tone of the original performances while offering an alternative for when watching with subtitles may not be possible.”
