Sharkfin's blog: "Chaos"

Good Morning and happy Thursday to you. Have you ever seen one of those dubbed films I hope I have the naming of it correctly written. It’s a film where the actors voices do not match the actor themselves. Like a Japanese made film which does not show the closed caption words but rather has the actors speaking with a dubbed voice. Well apparently a few polish films still try to do that. No pun intended. While European and American TV and film producers take care to have dialogue dubbed into foreign languages using voices that are appropriate for each actor, the dubbing in Poland continues to be done by "lektors" males with smoking-seasoned voices who speak the dialogue of all the characters in a story in the same pitch. The trick, according to an October Wall Street Journal dispatch, is "speaking so smoothly that viewers forget that Paris Hilton sounds like a Polish Johnny Cash." One experiment using six different actors for the cast of an episode of "Friends" bombed with viewers, and the next week, the lektor returned. [Wall Street Journal, 10-12-07] Now that has to be hard to watch Paris Hilton in any case let alone having a strong male smoke riddled voice wow could the kill any mood in an instant. I can see it now that unbridled passion moment no words need to be spoken and then she opens her mouth and with a Deeper then Barry White voice ask’s Do I look pretty? Yikes! See I have a problem with any lady having a deeper voice then me… gives me Voice envy… and we do not want voice envy… See we males get envious enough without losing our deep lower the a snakes belly in a wagon wheel track voices. Now that is deep! I looked up the word dubbed I guess it will be ok used in that form. But that Polish voice over person they call Lektors… has got me stumped… and a stumped Marty…. Well is a stumped Marty. May you day be wonderful as I scratch my head a few times in wonderment over this polish voice over word… A huge hug and in a deep voice…have a sweet day and here is a pat to show you on your way. Mart
