Sound for film / Dialogue and voice

Words that sit in the scene.

Production dialogue edited to the performance, ADR when the set could not hold it, and voiceover recorded to the cut.

In the booth and in the edit

  • Dialogue editing from the production tracks: the take that plays, cleaned without sounding processed.
  • ADR for lines the location could not keep, matched to the room in the picture.
  • Voiceover and narration recorded against picture, with room to rewrite a line on the spot.
  • Cue sheets so the actor and the director know which words are being replaced.
  • A dialogue stem ready for the mix, separate from effects and music.
