Dubbing  --  Copying of previously recorded material. In tape recording, playing a recorded tape on one machine while recording it on another. In film, synchronization with lip movements of an actor of a voice not originally recorded in sync with the picture. Loops, or short extracted sections of dialogue in composite form, are used to guide the actor or narrator. Used also to prepare foreign films for new markets.
