Localized & translated videos, at scale
One template, every language. Feed translated copy and the layout re-fits, so long or short translations never clip. Render an MP4 per locale from a single source of truth.
The problem with translating video
Translating a video usually means re-editing it per language, and translated text rarely fits the box the original was designed around.
Re-editing per language does not scale
Ten languages means ten manual edits per video, then ten more every time the source changes. The work multiplies with your markets.
Translated text does not fit
German runs long, other languages run short. Copy designed for one length clips, overflows, or leaves awkward gaps in the others.
Versions drift apart
Hand-made language variants slowly diverge: a fixed typo here, a nudged element there, until the set no longer matches.
How it works with Bluepic
Design once with text fields
Build one animated template in Studio and connect the copy as input fields, so the words are data, not baked into the design.
Feed the translations
Send the translated strings for each locale. The engine re-fits the layout to each translation: neighbouring elements move and frames re-fit instead of clipping.
Render one MP4 per locale
Send one request per language. Each returns a hosted, layout-faithful clip in that language, from the same source template.
A concrete example
Render the same template per locale by sending the translated strings. The layout re-fits each one, so a longer translation reflows instead of clipping:
curl -N -X POST "https://api.bluepic.io/api/render" \
-H "Authorization: <your API key>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"templateId": "<your template>",
"data": { "headline": "Jetzt entdecken und dabei sein" },
"format": "mp4"
}'Loop over your locale strings to render every language in one pass. See batch animate videos, and the same layout-faithful engine behind the IDML translation tools.
Why a reactive template wins here
Layout-faithful, not clipped
The reflow that keeps translated stills correct keeps the animated text correct too, so no language overflows or shrinks to unreadable.
One source of truth
Fix the design once and every language inherits it on the next render. No divergent per-language files to maintain.
Add a language, add a row
A new market is one more set of strings, not one more editing project. Stills follow the same way by switching the format.
