Topic: Dubbing (filmmaking)



  
 dubbing --  Encyclopædia Britannica
in filmmaking, the process of adding new dialogue or other sounds to the sound track of a motion picture that has already been shot.
Production sound is used as a cue or guide track for replacing dialogue, a procedure commonly known as dubbing, or looping.
Dubbing is most familiar to audiences as a means of translating foreign-language films into the audience's language.

It is not always that easy to find a projector that will project at 18 frames per second and so films shot at silent speed will often be speeded up slightly, whether the filmmaker intended this of not.
Double System Projector - A projector designed to project a workprint and play a mag track in sync.
Dubbing - The recording of dialogue in a sound studio, after the footage is shot, where the actors watch the film and match the lip movements.

 The DVD Journal Quick Reviews: Meltdown
Director Wong Jing is the Hong Kong Renny Harlin — he specializes in large and unsubtle filmmaking that is hopelessly shallow (the comedy is here very broad) but still entertaining, as he keeps the movie at an agreeable length (100 minutes) and allows Li to show off his awe-inspiring skill.
Somehow though — through years of conditioning — American audiences have come to expect and love this incongruity from kung fu films.

Once the soundtrack and dubbing is done (in the absence of sync sound or on-location sound), the film is then transferred to the server that will relay it to the theatres equipped with digital projection systems.
Reverse Telecine is the process by which video footage is printed on to 35mm film.
First, the film is shot on tapes (which cost a few hundred rupees per tape of one hour) compared to film (which costs a few thousand rupees per reel of 4 minutes) and the images stored digitally are transferred to the computer.

The voice actors then would watch the film over and over, and get the feel of the scene.
Instead of dubbing long stretches of dialogue at one time, inviting fatigue and error, films were cut into short, one minute segments, and spliced into a loop.
One of the striking innovations Murray and Company fashioned from their experience at Soundlab was the "looping" technique of dubbing, in common use today but virtually experimental at the time.

Ok, so I'm in the process of editing a movie I shot this summer, problem is there are a few lines which were performed/recorded poorly and so i've had to re-dub them.
Problem is, the lines were recorded outside and i was stupid enough to record the dubbing inside, so there's a little bit of an echo and a "tinny" sound to the voices that make them not quite match up right.
Unfortunately, it'll be a while before i have access to the actors or any suitable voice replacements, so for all intents and purposes i can't re-record the dubs.

 Super-8 & 16mm Filmmaking Sync Sound FAQ
The camera may say "24fps" on the speed selector but, unless it has been factory-equipped with a crystal controlled motor drive system, there is no guarantee the speed is exactly 24fps (or any other for that matter).
Since, unlike videotape, the filmmaking process is split into the two seperate mediums of picture and sound, the requirement for maintaining lip sync throughout the various production and post-production stages becomes very important.
If the camera was not designed at the factory for use in double-system sync sound, there are certain requirements of the camera in order for it to be either used "as is" to shoot lip sync sound or in order for it to be adapted or modified for double-system sync sound filmmaking.

At the risk of sounding redundant, it is worth emphasizing again that we do not contest a studio’s right to alter a film which they themselves financed and produced; such is the nature of filmmaking.
