This week on The MCA Prodcast Pat Murphy talks with Tanya Bogin, Managing Director of Craft Worldwide in London. Tanya oversees end-to-end creative production operations, as well as global campaign localisation for IPG Partners and direct clients. She has over 14 years of experience in advertising and has been responsible for developing integrated production solutions for clients like Microsoft, Cisco, Nestle, Unilever and more.
Tanya defines her role in transcreation and localization as so much more than just translation. She says it’s ‘not just adapting words, it's adapting nuance’ which she describes as a science and an art. Localization relies on a very strong creative writing team who can adapt a global campaign for a local market whilst keeping the essence of the meaning consistent.
Tanya touches on the developments with technology and how they impact the production process, She even reveals that Craft have an internal AI council that monitor for technological innovation and explore how Craft could utilize them. Tanya’s focus is on maintaining brand authenticity, and explains how she does this whilst also adopting new tech.
There’s been considerable talk in the news of AI replacing voiceovers. Whilst Tanya considers the negative implications of such tech when it comes to security and data protection, Tanya also sees huge potential for this technology when it comes to localization, allowing actors to speak in their own voice but in a language they don’t speak!
Tanya and Pat also discuss sustainability and the shift in production to try and become more sustainable. Tanya argues that there’s a process of education that’s required, for both creative and production teams, in what is achievable, and that moving sustainability considerations upstream in the creative process will ultimately lead to more sustainable productions.
