Hello again! This week we have a recording of Bridgette Hoffman’s panel on Breaths and Efforts. In both voice acting and ADR, breaths and efforts refers to various non-verbal noises that are included in the voice track. These can include grunts, coughs, sighs, wimpers, and almost any other sounds that people can make that aren’t words. Bridgette talked about here background in voice acting and ADR work, talked about how breaths and efforts are recorded, why they are often recorded separate from the main voice track. Then, she invited attendees to try out breaths and efforts for some improvised scenes. We hope you enjoy learning about breaths and efforts. Have a great week and game on!
