localization-dubbing-production

localization-dubbing-production is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from calesthio/generative-media-skills. It costs 98 tokens per session (5,883 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for adapting videos into versions for different languages and markets. It covers subtitles, dubbing, voice choices, timing, accessibility, rights checks, review, and quality control.

In plain words
What is it for?
Planning and reviewing localized videos, dubbed advertisements, social clips, explainers, documentaries, training media, avatar videos, and multi-market campaigns.
Why use it?
It helps avoid treating translation as a word-for-word swap that sounds unnatural, misses local meaning, or fails timing and delivery requirements.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

localization-dubbing-production scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Localization and dubbing production

Use this skill to turn a source video into market-ready localized variants without treating translation as a word swap. Direct the localization strategy, script adaptation, voice approach, timing, accessibility, rights checks, review loop, and quality control before choosing any provider or model.

This is production guidance, not legal advice. When the work involves talent contracts, union-covered performers, biometric/voice data, likeness rights, political content, regulated claims, minors, health/finance/legal claims, or paid media in multiple jurisdictions, require qualified legal/local market review before release.

Evidence posture

Documented facts in this skill are grounded in the sources listed at the end and were verified on 2026-07-10 unless otherwise stated. Empirical observations are recurring production patterns seen in localization/dubbing work and should be checked against the actual source media. Production heuristics are decision rules for agents; override them when a client brief, platform specification, law, accessibility requirement, or native reviewer says otherwise.

Start by classifying the job

Identify the content type before making localization choices:

  • Entertainment, documentary, testimonial, news, or creator content: preserve voice, identity, cultural specificity, and trust. Subtitles may be more honest than dubbing for testimony or journalism.
  • Advertisement, product launch, app demo, social clip, avatar video, or explainer: optimize comprehension, retention, brand tone, and platform behavior. Dubbing or native re-voicing is often worth the cost.
  • Training, compliance, medical, finance, legal, or public-sector media: prioritize accuracy, terminology control, accessibility, traceable review, and auditable approvals over fluency shortcuts.
  • Children/family, literacy-limited, or sound-off mobile audiences: do not assume subtitles alone are sufficient; consider dubbing, captions, visual reinforcement, and simpler reading load.
  • High-emotion drama, close-up presenter, avatar, or face-heavy ad: decide early whether lip-sync is required, because it changes the script, casting, edit, and QC burden.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
