The Voice Over or Dubbing Artist of Bollywood


Dubbing is a post-production process used in film making in which additional or supplementary recordings are "mixed" with original production sound to create the finished soundtrack.
When a film is shot, there is a recordist on the set who records all the dialogues of the characters. This is generally done either with a wire-less microphone hidden in the costume of the character, or a professional guy holds a microphone attached at the end of a boom-pole. The boom pole method is  generally accompanied with close-up shots.
