Recording, Re-Recording, and Editing of Sound
This paper deals with problems bordering between the artistic subject of editing sound film and the technical fields of recording and re-recording. The topics discussed are: characteristics of effective sound recording; functions of re-recording; sound effects—analogy with special-process photography; equipment for re-recording; choice of sound tracks in editing; sound dissolves; common faults of re-recording; personnel and organization for re-recording and sound editing. The purpose of the paper is to show how sound engineering, re-recording, and editing must be closely coordinated to give the desired emotional and artistic effect in the finished picture.
