Let's take a look at how to how to fix that space. And that spaces would be like this. So recording a scratch audio. Have you ever heard that thing where it's like if you were to let's say, this is the spacing we want in our edit, because we've got a music track. It's really important when you're recording audio to make sure the cameras are also recording a scratch audio. Have you ever heard that thing where it's like if you work with 10,000 hours at a specific scale, then you become a master of it.
So, in some cases, it's a noticeable drop off when you don't have anything here. But and for example, a lot of times I like to put dialogue clip, sound bite right before a music beat is a kind of punctuates it, and then give the music a second to really, really be there. And then start with the next idea. Make sure the cameras are also recording a scratch audio. Have you ever heard that thing where it's like, so this is bothering you? There's a few ways to fix it.
See, I can't drag this out because that's more dialogue. But what I can do is examine the clip for dead space and see Your skill, then you become a master of it. So that's dead space. This is room tone. And any good audio mixer who's recording or sorry, any good production audio guy who's on set will record ambience in the room will say, Alright everyone be quiet record 30 seconds of ambience and that's the purpose of it if you've never if you never knew, but in most cases, people don't do that anymore. They get lazy.
No time. So here's a workaround. You take this, you copy it, you hold Alt, drag it and let's keep doing that until it's full. Now let's take a listen to audio. Have you ever so better and then you can add little crossfades there copy these. And I'm going pretty quickly to show you that you could finesse it make sure you're not getting any overlaps.
You can get in go look in your other other clips and find the best dead space. But now you put it all together audio Have you ever heard that thing where it's like if you work for 10,000 hours, there's no severe drop off and noise. And perhaps with this music, it doesn't matter. But if it's a very light piano or very ambient strings, and the dialogue is up loud and the focus then you will notice and this is a quick way to fix the gap.
