Re: How To : The ADR Gospel
This is all great stuff!
I do a little bit of ADR here and there (probably 1 session every couple of months) so its good to hear from the people in the know.
I don't have a lapel mic at all, and generally work with a couple of 416s, one close, one about 4 feet back. (Or swap the close mic for a U87 if requested)
One thing I was wondering, how many takes do you guys average per cue?
and does the recordist do any editing on the fly. (I often cut and finesse takes on the go.)
Personally I think there is nothing worse than bad ADR. I was watching a show last night and the opening scene was all ADR, and it was out of sync, it didn't sound spacially right, and the preformances were wooden.
No matter how good the pictures are, if the dialog isn't working, then the whole scene falls on its butt.
