Today, I had our actors send in voice recordings of their lines for the shot that originally sounded more like background noise than dialogue. Fortunately, the stalker’s character doesn’t show frontality in this shot, meaning his mouth is not visible. This makes it relatively simple to overlay the voice recording since there’s no need for the dialogue to match his lip movements.
However, the actress playing Eva does have a frontal shot in this scene, so we need to ensure that her voice recording aligns perfectly with her lip movements. To help with this, I sent her the specific shot and asked her to match the pace and rhythm of her original dialogue as closely as possible. I also sent the voice recordings to our editor, who will begin working on syncing them to the footage tomorrow.
If, for any reason, Eva's audio doesn't align perfectly with her lip movements, we'll revert to using the original audio from the shoot for Eva. While this wouldn’t be an ideal solution, it wouldn’t be a huge issue, especially since the stalker’s voice is the one that is almost inaudible in the original clip. The audio from Eva can be worked with. We're prepared for both outcomes, and the priority is to make sure the scene feels seamless.
