What is meant by “lip sync sound” filmmaking ?
A. Very simply, the entire filmmaking process of shooting, recording, transferring, dubbing, editing, and projecting whereby the end result produces the appearance to the viewer that the on-camera speaker’s lips appear to be precisely synchronized with the words he/she is speaking. Since, unlike videotape, the filmmaking process is split into the two seperate mediums of picture and sound, the requirement for maintaining lip sync throughout the various production and post-production stages becomes very important.
