Which anime translation is better. What do you need to start voice acting anime
The culture of the Japanese state has long been part of Everyday life citizens Russian Federation. Those who are not fond of anime still unwittingly invest a part of themselves in the promotion of funny cartoons. Ignoring their existence or open hostility towards the creativity of the Japanese is also an investment in its history of development. Anime voice actors note that this process is complex and time-consuming, but at the same time, the reward for their work is very high for some of them. This is the recognition and respect of the audience. Professional dubbers know how to voice anime in a way that people enjoy watching.
Step one
It all starts with translation. Before starting to dub any anime series, a person who decides to do this must receive a text that will be read in the future. The work of translators, as a rule, is delayed, if only because there are few people in Russia who have studied Japanese so as to convey the content of the series as accurately as possible to others. Or rather, a small part of professionals work in the field of anime voice acting. Therefore, first of all, the translation is carried out into English and only after that into Russian. Dubber gets his hands on several options performed different people. He will have to choose the most successful of them or combine them, composing the most informative and easy-to-read text. How to voice anime without thorough preparation? No way. If you start to be lazy at this stage, there can be no talk of a good result of the work.
step two
High demands are placed not only on translation, but also on the dubber itself, for obvious reasons. The most important criterion by which a candidate for the position of understudy is evaluated is the voice. It is he who determines the success of a person in this difficult profession. Besides the fact that it should be pleasant, a person who decides to try his hand in the field of anime dubbing cannot help but have good diction or not know how to put accents. Many well-known dubbers admitted in their interviews that training to help deliver a speech was incredibly exhausting. They understood how to voice anime - so that people would appreciate their efforts, so they did not give up and confidently walked towards their goal. This implies another quality that professional doubles should have - patience. While working on the series, you will have to re-record some moments more than once.
Step Three
professional equipment and good programs- the two main components of a well-recorded sound, and therefore a guarantor of the success of the anime series that is being worked on. A good microphone will provide high-quality voice material. The absence of noise and the clarity of the recording will facilitate the work during sound editing, and the viewer will be presented with a more comfortable viewing of the long-awaited cartoon series. People who understand how to voice anime on high level do not skimp on technology. You should not deprive attention of the programs in which the main work on the installation of the cartoon is carried out. A beginner can use Windows Movie Maker as a practice, but for serious work, you will have to master more serious applications. You need to be prepared to shell out money for video tutorials or spend a lot of time studying them on your own.
Anime voiced by Anchord
Among all known dubbers, this person is the most popular. Every fan of Japanese cartoons will recognize his pleasant voice, and sparkling jokes will make even the most serious viewer smile. The main feature of this dubber is the ability to adapt to the mood of the scene unfolding in the series. If the moment is filled with drama, he will read the text as seriously as possible, if the action is colored with fun, Vyacheslav will season it with an excellent portion of humor. List of anime voiced by Ancord (the most popular of the series):
1) "Naruto";
2) "Fairy Tail";
3) "Beelzebub";
4) "Blue exorcist";
5) "Numbered";
6) "Keijo";
Dubbing anime is not an easy task. It requires a lot of time and money, a strong character and, most importantly, a sincere love for the profession, because this work is built mainly on voluntary initiatives. However, the reward for it for some people is more valuable than ordinary money.

Yato is a wandering Japanese god in the form of a thin, blue-eyed youth in a tracksuit. In Shintoism, the power of a deity is determined by the number of believers, and our hero has neither a temple nor priests, all donations fit in a sake bottle. The guy in the neckerchief moonlights as a jack of all trades, painting ads on the walls, but things are going very badly. Even the tongue-tied Mayu, who for many years worked as a Shinki - the Sacred Weapon of Yato - left the owner. And without a weapon, the younger god is no stronger than an ordinary mortal magician, you have (what a shame!) To hide from evil spirits. And who needs such a celestial anyway?

It ended badly - the girl did not die, but gained the ability to “leave” her body and walk on the “other side”. Having met Yato there and recognized the culprit of her troubles, Hiyori convinced the homeless god to heal her, for he himself admitted that no one can live between worlds for a long time. But, having got to know each other better, Iki realized that the current Yato did not have enough strength to solve her problem. Well, you need to take matters into your own hands and personally direct the tramp on the true path: first, find a good-for-nothing weapon, then help earn money, and then, you see, what will happen. No wonder they say: what a woman wants - God wants!

Anime voice acting is a translation of Japanese cartoons from Japanese into English, and from English into Russian. After translating the text, an anime with subtitles is created, but not everyone is comfortable reading subtitles, instead of reading they want to calmly watch their series without missing a single frame from the series, because they want to devote more time to watching rather than reading captions from the screen.
Therefore, there are special people, dubbers who translate and dub series, many do it for fun, they are pleased when people listen to anime with their voice acting, and for many it is considered a full-time job, dubbing anime.
Fan dubbers- people who voice the translated TV series, movie or anime into Russian.
Sabers- translating films, series and anime from Japanese or of English language into Russian.
How are releases created?
You can often find that ignorant people call us, dubbers, translators and demand to voice one or another of their favorite releases as soon as possible. Human ignorance cannot be condemned, but no one wants to encourage it either. In this article, I will give you a superficial understanding of creating releases.
Basically, a Russian voiced release consists of 4 stages of production, namely:
- Putting equals on the network.
- Translation from Japanese to English.
- Translation from English to Russian.
- Sounding of the Russian translation.
Now let's take a look at how this is done.
Putting equals on the network.
First, the release is recorded from television, this is usually done by ordinary Japanese guys who share anime between each other. Do you download, for example, TV rips of your favorite programs from torrents? The Japanese do the same, and they use special file-sharing networks such as PD or SHARE. From here, “ravki” are pulled not only by ansabers and ravers, but also by ordinary Russian fansabers and dabers. It often happens that many editors rename these files and release them under their own brand, thereby increasing their CSF.
Translation from Japanese to English.
As soon as the Ansabers have downloaded the translation, the translation process begins, it takes from a day to infinity. The japanist translates what was said into English by ear, the timer adjusts the timing of the subtitles, the editor edits the translation into correct English, the designer styles the subtitles, the encoder codes the equalization and assembles the final release. How many people? Correctly 5-6 people.
And here the first subjective reasons begin, someone has exams, someone has a wedding, someone's computer is broken. This is where the notorious infinity lies. Sometimes it all becomes so sad that the project is dropped.
Translation from English to Russian.
The third stage begins, the Russabers choose the translation that they like best, it often happens that the subs are so crooked that few people understand what it means at all. Since Ansabers are not perfect, Russabers, who often do not know how to translate, are not ideal either. The translator Advocate wrote a lot about this, they write a lot about this in Lurk, as an example, a typical translation of “I’m Vasya” can be cited, many translators translate as “I am Vasya”.
And so the translation of the ansab is done, it needs to be edited, the editors take up this and, God forbid, that good editors. Having edited the sub, it goes into release. As a result, it takes 2-3 days.
Sounding of the Russian translation.
On the last step a cheerful fandaber chooses a translation for himself, according to which he will have to voice. As soon as he looks into the Russian fan sub, his eyes pop out of his head, because some fan subs who often do not know Russian sometimes make such funny translations that it becomes almost impossible to pronounce them. It often happened that when an actor on the screen pronounces 2 words, the Englishman translates into 4 words for fidelity, and the Russaber translates into 8 so that it is exactly “wow”. Fandaber, on the other hand, strives to say these cherished two words, and in that intonation so that the viewer understands what they mean. And so, choosing a normal translation, the voice acting begins. It lasts in different ways, many sound for 2-3 hours per episode, many are controlled in half an hour. Next comes the timing of adjusting the sounded road to the video. The timer is usually either the duber itself or the timer. Timing takes the longest amount of time, sometimes up to 2 hours. Are you ready to sit every evening for 2 hours watching an anime time program? No, we want to go for a walk, lessons? But some can.
And as soon as the release is out of time, they begin to mix and assemble it. As a result, the release is done in an average of 2 days.
Now back to subjective factors.
By eye, I got a chain of 10-15 people who are engaged in one anime in free time, if someone falls out of the clip of their teams, then the release will slow down. Translation / dubbing is a hobby and the attitude towards it comes as a secondary life factor, that is, first, work, girlfriend, friends, sex, and only then you can detime or translate. And also don't forget that we are working on many releases in parallel setting priorities.
Know when typical lazy people who don’t really rearrange anything of themselves in this regard say: “when will the next release come out? And then I’m sick of waiting!” “What are you doing there brakes at all ?!”, they get a fleeting ban.
I hope after this article you will never ask when something will be released, but just say thank you to all those who hunch over these 25 minutes of joy.
