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.
