I’ve hit a little small bump in the road and thought it wouldn’t hurt to post here to see if anyone could help get moving again.
I’ve finished patching and cleaning up the mono mix, begun synching it to the ‘93 mix, and I’ve come across a situation that I had not anticipated. There are a number of examples within sections that have been properly synched, where the dialogue has been positioned slightly differently. I was initially re-aligning them to the’93 as I went along – until I checked one such example against picture, and found that the mono version lined up with the lip movement significantly better than the ’93 (this does not come as a surprise, knowing the history and timeline of the two mixes). It’s clear at this point, that I DO need to come up with some way to have a video reference running in synch as I work, to verify when I should synch audio to audio or leave it alone.
So my question is this: Does anyone here have the means to easily convert just the video from the GOUT DVD to a Quicktime file (or multiple small files)? In this format, I can import it directly into ProTools as a visual reference. The resolution would need to high, as in most instances I am trying to synch to the mouths of the actors – occasionally in a long shot. But it could be divided into as many small files as would make it manageable.
(This somewhat out of my area of expertise, so if this is a huge undertaking, I apologize and - never mind!)
