Cheers, tricky cause I've not edited it at all but been the ADR supervisor role in crowd *and* a decent handful of principle ADR, enough for prod. to get to know me as a part of the team yknow!
Just feel like putting "additional adr supervisor" or similar diminishes the actual supervisors role

Yeah I sometimes use "additional dialogue editor" if I've edited an ep or two, but when there's another "main" dials editor across the project.
"Additional ADR Supervisor" would be sorta appropriate but feels like it diminishes "supervisor" from the other person's role then when it's me helping them

Should add that "dialogue editor" and "ADR supervisor" are often combined roles, so when you say the ADR supervisor is usually on the call, they may well be an editor if we're talking about this in the same context.

Some** not sole

Literally in every session I can be on my projects, same across most dialogue editors I know. On sole projects the show's directors don't even go. if I can't be there there'll be cover, unless it's voiceover so no sync or performance matching required.

The dialogue editor / adr supervisor in the session is usually leading as far as timing and explaining why technical cues are needed. Covering I'm doing that also, but reluctant to write "supervisor" with someone else already across the project as a whole

Supervised as a dialogue editor, I.e. walked the actors through the cues and directed their performance in terms of the dialogue edit.

"Covered" as in in place of the assigned ADR supervisor for the project because they were double booked / unavailable for an amount of sessions

Ah but I'm not the recordist, I'm a dialogue editor!

Off the top of my head maybe the kraken transcribed guide track thing - I.e. cut/copy and paste from there to a cue track?
November 24, 2024 at 10:58 AM
Me neither.. if I were working for myself haha.
November 24, 2024 at 10:57 AM
Oo nice, what things specifically relating to cueing?
November 24, 2024 at 10:07 AM
Don't worry I totally feel you haha. But! There may be other options like keyboard maestro and steermouse that can do a lot of the shortcut type things if not all of what kraken and soundflow do!

I hate to be "that guy" but it sounds like there's an answer... 😅
November 22, 2024 at 8:55 PM
Let me get back to you on that as I'll only have the Avid edition long term! Not sure how it all works yet
November 22, 2024 at 4:28 PM
Delete fades for sure but I had Pro Tools configured to do that already.
I've just set one up to colour timeline clips when I have an ADR prompt selected, though it's not perfect.
Send back from rx and render, and sending to rx after pasting to a new track and creating handles is my current baby!

Dated folders! I like that

Bonus points for dialogue editing workflow based answers 🤣
