James Crow Posted March 26 Report Posted March 26 I just started to wake up and realised that months, MONTHS, have flow by. MONTHS! I don't know who was in charge of my body and mind at the time but I want to speak to them. On other topics. Random question. How would one re-dub a story. Like old kung fu movie dubbing. The bad dub where the lips move for a good minute and all they say is yes. If I can't figure this out I could always ignore it and try some other story, but I think it would be funny and an inside joke when the story comes out. So, any thoughts? 1 Quote
Peredhil Posted March 26 Report Posted March 26 By redub, do you mean MST3k commentary? Perhaps the use of square brackets and italics would do it? [Brilliant thinking pre-coffee. I wonder what he can think once caffeinated?] 1 1 Quote
Snypiuer Posted March 27 Report Posted March 27 Or like the old Spaghetti Westerns where the cowboy is CLEARY inhaling and exhaling cigarette smoke and NOT making a deadly threat, THEN you hear him inhale/exhale while his lips move. I think you would do it like Peredhil's example, but you'd have to do it line by line - the original line that the author WANTS the reader to "see" and then, underneath it in brackets, what the reader ACTUALLY "sees". 2 Quote
Harmonious_Echos Posted March 29 Report Posted March 29 As I've never done any film editing, I can't say as I'd know how to do such things... **chases Muse away from the Spaghetti Westerns** Not food! Not! Food! Shoo! 1 Quote
James Crow Posted April 3 Author Report Posted April 3 Those are all very helpful and I think I know how to do it...maybe? The problem is it's also an action scene an action is not my native tongue. But I broke my brain on an idea that helps that....maybe. Give me five-ish hours and I think I'll do something....maybe! Other news, I have more ideas! I finally came up with my favorite trope character, the gentalman thief, and he fits in one of worlds! EEEEEEEEEEEEE! And after I re-dub the episode I need too I will start showing all the places I see. 1 Quote
