Problem
Moviegoers are often limited to watching films in the language offered at their local cinema, which can exclude individuals who prefer or require alternative language options. Dubbing films into multiple languages for each theater is costly, restricting the availability of diverse language options and potentially reducing viewership from multilingual audiences.
Solution
Cinedubs offers a mobile application that allows users to listen to movies in their preferred language through their smartphones while watching the film in theaters or at home. The app synchronizes the downloaded audio track with the movie playing on the screen using a patent-pending audio synchronization technology. This enables viewers to enjoy films in their chosen language, regardless of the language being screened, fostering a shared movie-watching experience for multilingual groups.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes moviegoers who prefer to watch films in a language different from the screening language, multilingual families and groups, and individuals seeking accessibility through audio descriptions.
