Hello, all of you
Probably a poorly worded subject, but I'm curious about strategies for using just the soundtrack score to cover scenes, with all other audio muted. I'm using this as a bit of a crutch in my Interstellar edit (work in progress). The scene I'm working on has many cuts, and it will be very challenging or impossible to match up the audio properly. I feel like I can get away with having just the soundtrack playing, and in isolation it feels effective but I'm looking for help in understanding how I can make the transition to soundtrack-only more believable (and vice versa; how to reintroduce the audio).
Do I need a full scene transition? Should I cut to an wide shot or environmental shot to "distance" the audience? What have others tried?
I remember there's a scene in the theatrical cut of The Chronicles of Riddick where the violence is fairly intense so they went music-only to get the PG-13 rating, but I don't remember how they sold the transition...maybe that's a starting point for me.
Advance Thanks!
If Audio Editing is a better thread for this, please let me know, but that one seemed more technical in nature.
