The art of re-recording or dubbing a video script while matching the original actor’s mouth movements. This is time consuming, expensive and experience is required as the original speech patterns can be unpredictable in speed and deliveryAffricates – the speech sound that combines the rush of air of a plosive (as in the letters ‘b’ and ‘p’) with that of a fricative (when air is forced through a small gap in the lips or teeth – as in ‘ssss’), to give what is heard at the start of words such as ‘chant’, ‘choke’ or ‘choo-choo’… which is certainly something to ‘chew’ over…Air check – a recording of transmission (‘ROT’) of either audio or video. Used to give feedback or sometimes required for job applications so someone can hear/see how you perform ‘in real life’ rather than in something specifically recorded for the applicationAlt – short for ‘alternative’ as in “give me an alt on that” when the director asks for another version of a line-read. This can be for a variety of reasons including wanting variations on takes, wanting just one or a couple of words changed, or to be said with slightly different inflection or intonation etc. Hosted on Acast.
