The Gameslave Podcast - Media Localization Panel

The Gameslave Podcast - Media Localization Panel

Starting this week, we will be presenting a series of panels that were recorded at Nan Desu Kan, 2019. This first episode presents a panel about localization with Teca and Lauren Scanlan, who has worked for Kodansha Comics. They discussed the primary tasks that are typical of a localization effort, including licensing, translating, and production; and they answered some audience questions. Unfortunately, the microphone had trouble picking up the audience, so you may not be able to understand all of their questions. I hope you enjoy the podcast anyways.
