DUBBING ACADEMY DAY 3 = BATCH 1

 







The day begins with our  Direk Neil Ericson Tolentino by the ever-energetic vibe. It was a funny and engaging day for us. 

The lectures begin: ADR - known as Automated Dialogue Replacement

Automated dialogue replacement (ADR) is the process of re-recording an actor's dialogue in a quiet environment, during post-production to improve audio quality or make changes to the originally scripted dialogue. During an ADR session, the performer or replacement actor watches a looped scene in order to dub new dialogue over the original production track.
ADR / DUBBING SCRIPT: Script uses during ADR Session in film, tv or commercials.
ADR SCRIPTWRITER – goes through the entire episode/scene/movie and uses the translations to write an adapted speech that not only fits their native audience but fits properly with the lip flaps of the characters.
WHY USE ADR:
Noisy location: No matter how much you try to dampen the surroundings of a location, sometimes there's no way of getting around an unwanted sound. If you're a production sound mixer, it's a good idea to bring those issues to the director to let them decide if they want to do another take or not. Whatever the decision, be sure to make notes on what takes may need ADR. 
 
Unintelligible dialogue: Sometimes talent can say something that just can't be heard or even understood. There even may be some circumstances where a single word in a captivating performance was mispronounced. You don't need to throw the whole takeaway, you can simply fix that single word. 
 
Accents: When actors use an accent for their characters, sometimes it doesn't always go as planned. When you get to test screenings, people can just flat out not connect with it. That's where ADR can come in and replace the lines with the new accent. 
 
Non-verbal sounds: ADR can also be used to add breathing, laughter, gasps, or sighs to the performance. 
 
The story changes: No matter how detailed the script, a story can shift in the cutting room and leave you with plot holes. That's where ADR can shine. A simple cut away to another actor or a shot that doesn't show the actor's face allows you to add a new line of dialogue where your audience won't realize the difference. 
CONCEPT OF LANGUAGE: a system of conventional spoken, manual (signed), or written symbols by means of which human beings, as members of a social group and participants in its culture, express themselves.

DUBBING ACADEMY DAY 2 = BATCH 1

 








The day begins with the Voice Master dubbing in our session, grateful and thankful for another day and blessings of the Lord.  Everyone is also excited and eager and curious about the dubbing training and of course our mentors and coaches and organizer that made it possible. Once in a lifetime experience and opportunity for all of us. 

Sir Danny explain to us what is acting means and how to do it in dubbing and apply it in our output.

Acting is an activity in which a story is told by means of its enactment by an actor or actress who adopts a character—in theatre, television, film, radio, or any other medium that makes use of the mimetic mode. ... The vast majority of professional actors have undergone extensive training.

How do you describe acting?
acting, the performing art in which movement, gesture, and intonation are used to realize a fictional character for the stage, for motion pictures, or for television. Acting is generally agreed to be a matter less of mimicry, exhibitionism, or imitation than of the ability to react to imaginary stimuli.


Is acting creatively?
Acting As A Form Of Creative Art

Actors must make the character come to life for television, motion pictures, or the stage. This character realization requires talent, creative thinking, and a lot of hard work so that the audience can see the real inner-self of the role in question.

And also to use our character voice in familiarizing our vocal register.

And the afternoon activity was a very motivating experience as we apply the learning from sir Danny. Job well-done guys learn a lot from this day 2. Looking forward again to the next sessions. God Bless!

                                     OF ORIENTATION 
                           OF DUBBING DAY 1=BATCH 1




The day begins with the Voice Master dubbing in our session, and for me again I  am excited and nervous but grateful and thankful for another opportunity and blessings of the Lord. Everyone is also excited and eager and curious about the dubbing training and of course our mentors and coaches and organizer that made it possible. Once in a lifetime experience and opportunity for all of us.


 And a living testimony of a dubber, how he strives and continues and being consistent in becoming a dubber. There are so many tips, wisdom, and learning that they share on their journey in the dubbing industry. 




Maam Nikki again inspires us, motivates, and reminds us in our dubbing journey and training. And again money is not the motivation of this industry. Loyalty, Commitment, Dedication is the key always to being successful in everything you do. To promote dubbing as an art. To do it because we are passionate about it. Volunteering always to see your value, not the money because your skills will be developed and enhanced. Our value will come, money will come but not the reason or motivation.







THE STUDIO WITH THE VOICE MASTER AND MENTORS














And of course, our Voice Master sir Pocolo De Leon Gonzales reminds us always of our LCD - in becoming a dubber, We are lucky to be part of this program because we are chosen of all.

To be able to focus, be motivated, and be creative. And of course the dedication and passion for being a dubber. Disciple and listen to the mentors. It's an honor to be part of this training and opportunity to be taught by the experts..


Excited once again for the next session, and that's it our day 1 orientation of dubbing, Papa Doc MaVoice your voice artist and soon to be dubber in God's grace and mercy!
