Recording voice overs planning

Recording voice overs planning

For our voice overs in our film, we will be using the software adobe audition and Audacity. Between Adobe audition and Audacity, both have the feature to do looping for voice overs; just incase any issues occur with audition, we can switch to Audacity. Looping is post-production process where actors re-record or add dialogue to a scene. Lopping is used to improve the clarity, timing or emotional tone of a scene. Planning the voice overs was a little difficult because Shaunae is unable to come over to my house to film the voice overs. I had to make something work so I decided to entrust Shaunae to complete the voice overs at her home. This is how we are going to achieve this:

By using wired headphones as a microphone and multiple devices, Shaunae will watch the scenes on a separate screen like another phone or iPad, while recording her lines with another device that has audition on it. She will use audition or audacity to try to match her voice and sounds to her character's physical gestures. Because majority of Dariah's (Shaunae's character) dialogue is supposed to be her internal thoughts, looping will be far easier. We could also use looping to replace missed lines or create background conversations.

On the day of recording, I will instruct Shaunae to isolate herself inside of a closet, with blankets surrounding the walls for optimum quality. I want to try and be present to help direct Shaunae with very specific directions like tone and pronunciation, so I hope I can do all of that through a facetime.
