Production Part 4

    Hey, Cambridge! It's a new week! Today's production is dialogue. As previously mentioned, my friend Margot has a lovely English accent and is going to be my voice-over actress. 

    Apart from being awesome, Margot spends the bulk of her time playing volleyball. This meant she had little to no time to meet up after school to record. Thankfully, we have theater class together every other day in which we have access to noise-cancelling recording rooms and microphones. So our solution? Record then.

    Though we had this class time to use, we still had to be responsible and participate in some part of it. For this reason, we cut our recording into three parts. One class is 90 minutes long which is three 30-minute blocks. For the first two thirty minutes, we worked and rehearsed; for the last thirty minutes, we worked on the voice-over. We did this three times to have a total of 90 minutes of work time.

Day 1:

  • For about 10 minutes, we came up with this dynamic.
  • For another 10 minutes, I explained the film and the opening plot. 
  • For the last 10 minutes, she read the script and I explained the different decisions.

Day 2:
  • Read over the script and made different choices to see what sounded best
  • Wrote down the different interpretations
Day 3:
  • Recorded!
  • I forgot that Lily's mom called her in for dinner in the opening and that I had to record that too.
