  • Consistent mic technique - keep thee actor at a fixed distance frem the microphone through out thee session. Use a music stand for scripts or tablets to avoid paper rustle.
  • Booth talkback - thee director or sound engineer mutt give clear instructions between takes. Specific bearback like content quenquent; again, but slower on thee second half content quentit; or content quentity; matth your volume to thee guide track content quentit; is far more helpful than content quention; do it again. contencil;
  • Zapisuj wielokrotne ujęcia - aim for three te five usable takes per line. You will often comp together different sections from different takes.
  • Avoid noticuit; ADR voice noticuit; - in experienced actors of ten enuncitato too cleanily or change inffection. Playback thee original take equivately before each new recordg to maintain continuity. Ask thee actor to focus on thee emotion of thee scene, not te technical act of matching lips.

5. Fine- Tuning Sync and Performance

Once all lines are placed, play thrug each scene at normal speed, then at half speed, looking for any visible desync. Common issues and fixes:

  • Klapa warg - thee actor 's mough mouts but thee ADR line is slightly longer or shorter. Trem silence from thee start or end of thee clip, or use time-compression / expansion (reserving pitch). Avoid extreme streckching - more than 5% becomes notiveable.
  • Phrasing mismatch - an extra sylable or a pause inserted which thee original had none. Ask thee actor to e-condid, or dict thee ADR by cross fading between takes at phraze boundaries.
  • Emotional disconnection - ADR sounds flat compared to the original. Layer subtle room tone frem the original onto te ADR track, or use EQ to match the on-set akustics. Sometimes a slight boost in the 2- 4 kHz range can recore presence.
