Familiar to gamers voices or the right approach to the localization of "Prince of Persia"
I think many of you are already aware that this year the first part of the adventures of Prince Dastan, better known to everyone under the code name “Prince of Persia”, will be released on world screens.
Old story, new approach.
Those who are fond of games are remembering the first version of the famous toy. She still lives with the strength of Yubisoft. A certain amount of time ago, Disney Studio bought the rights to the film version and, apparently, shot the main summer hit of 2010.
It should be noted that in the end, the most amazing thing in the history of a localized version of the film is the approach to creating a dub. NevaFilm, a St. Petersburg recording studio, invited to duplicate the main role (Jake Gyllenhaal) of actor Peter (Glants) Ivashchenko. Those who are familiar with the modern branch of the gaming franchise (in particular, with the Russian options) have probably already heard his voice. It was he who voiced the Prince in the Akkel edition of the game.
In my opinion, a very practical solution. Many domestic gamers the voice of the main character of the picture will be associated with Ivashchenko, respectively, it makes sense to play this. Give less dissatisfied viewers! I sincerely hope that the Neva approached the process of localization of the “Prince” no worse than the “Avatar”.
As a guide, I suggest watching the video with voice-over (unofficial) voice acting, in which Petr Ivashchenko’s voice is already present (since the player’s code is not perceived by Habrom - post a link).
