Constantin Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 In dramatic and/or comedy stuff the above referenced quote is key, particularly when they are yelling or screaming. The problems I indicate to Directors are: A) the reverb or reflections are making the dialogue difficult to understand. and/or the lines are garbled because there is so much wind coming through the actor's mouth, that their teeth, tongue and everything else in that area is overpowered and lagging behind, thus screwing up pronunciation. The solution: C) all I need to hear is the intended context and emotional texture of the lines clearly, without all the excessive volume. Funny, how on one hand we complain (as do many viewers) about mumbling actors who are too quiet, and on the other we ask them to keep it down so as not to disturb the reflections.
