Junior Birdman Audio was pleased to provide dialog edit and mix for a video celebrating Augsburg College’s Sesquicentennial (150 years!). Walk the Moon Media shot poet and spoken word artist Donte Collins, a 2018 Augsburg graduate, performing multiple takes of the same poem in several different locations with varying acoustics, indoors and outdoors. The crucial question was whether all the dialog was usable, or if we’d need to ADR some of it. I managed to salvage all the audio takes to everyone’s satisfaction, and I even played around with location specificity a bit-- pushing the different acoustic properties of different spaces slightly, while maintaining a constant thread of verbiage that the audience could follow. A challenging but super fun project— and the finished product premiered to a standing ovation of Augsburg alumni during their 150th gala, I’m told.
