Lip Sync

Lip synchronization is often interchangeably used with ‘dubbing’. It is a process where the insertion of audio attempts to match the lip movements of the original actors. This process is critical in many feature length films or videos because it helps the audience better understand the content. Lip syncing gives the illusion that the content was actually filmed in the dubbed language. Lip syncing and dubbing can go hand in hand as it is critical to match the re-recorded audio with the lips of the live actors. Or else the production is viewed as second rate. Oftentimes, modifications are needed in the original translation to shorten the time it takes to speak where necessary. This can be a challenge when dubbing between two languages when it takes more words to convey a message in one language in comparison to others.
