What is said: I recorded this video once in English. Pick a language and hear the same video in a voice like mine.

What is said: Grabé este video una vez en inglés. Elige un idioma y escucha el mismo video en una voz como la mía.

What is said: Gravei este vídeo uma vez em inglês. Escolha um idioma e ouça o mesmo vídeo em uma voz como a minha.

Demo clip: an AI-generated scene with a fictional character. Dubbed with VDub v2, the model DubSync runs; lip-synced tracks use VSync v2.

Lip-sync shown in these examples is an optional paid add-on, separate from the dubbing trial.

Hear it

The same clips, dubbed into French.

These clips were made in English and dubbed into French with the model the app runs. Play one, then switch between the original and French.

An animated character

  • The character keeps its bright, young voice in French.
  • Music and forest sounds stay under the new speech.
  • Stylized mouths rarely need lip-sync, so a plain dub is usually enough for animation.

Narration over footage

A narrator never shows their lips, so nothing has to match on screen. This is the simplest kind of video to dub into French: the voice changes and the picture stays exactly as you cut it.

Before you publish

What to check in a French dub.

A dub can't be corrected word by word, so listen to the result before you post it, ideally with a native speaker.

  • Tu or vous

    French uses "tu" for one friend and "vous" for strangers, customers and any group of people. Check which one the dub uses for your viewers: "tu" sounds close and personal, while "vous" suits a business video or an audience addressed as a group.

  • Written or spoken style

    Spoken French drops the "ne" of the negative and says "on" where writing says "nous". A dub that keeps the written style can sound like a formal reading, so listen for whether it matches how you talk.

  • France, Quebec and beyond

    French in France, Quebec, Belgium and Switzerland differs in accent, in everyday words and even in how some numbers are said. Listen for which variety you hear.

Questions

Questions before you start

Which languages can I translate into French from?

You don't choose a source language: the spoken language is detected automatically. You choose French as the language to dub into.

Will the French voice sound like the original speaker?

Each voice is created from the original speaker, so it should sound similar, not identical. Clear speech with little background noise gives the best result.

Which variety of French does the dub use?

There is one French option, with no regional variants to choose from. If a regional audience matters to you, ask a native speaker from that region to listen before you publish.

Can I get French subtitles instead of a dub?

No. DubSync makes a dubbed MP4, not a subtitle file.

How long can the video be?

Up to 150 minutes and 1 GB per file, as an MP4, MOV or M4V.

How is a French dub priced?

By the input minute: the length of your original video, for each target language. You upload first and see the minutes and the cost before anything starts.

Plans from $4.90/month. You see the minutes and the cost before anything starts. See pricing
