ADR (Automated Dialogue Replacement)

ADR, or Automated Dialogue Replacement, is a post-production process where actors re-record their dialogue to improve sound quality or clarify speech. During filming, background noise or technical issues can compromise audio clarity. In ADR, actors watch their scenes and re-perform their lines in a sound studio, matching emotions and timing. This ensures the dialogue sounds clean and natural, seamlessly integrated into the original footage. It’s a standard part of film and TV production to enhance audio quality without reshooting entire scenes.
