Voice Over There To Provide Mobile Sound Recording Studio for Emmys

Voice Over There, Inc., manufacturer of the custom mobile ADR trailer and voice over recording booth, has been selected by AEG Ehrlich Ventures, LLC to place its mobile sound stage, the VOT trailer, on location to record voice over packages for the live broadcast of the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards.

The VOT trailer, designed by veteran television Director/Technical Director, Amir Soleimani, is a completely self-contained mobile recording studio housed in a custom-made 7x14x8’8″ cargo trailer. Air conditioned and fully soundproofed up to -50dB, the VOT trailer will be parked just outside the Nokia Theater in downtown Los Angeles for the Emmys broadcast.

Over the three days of rehearsals prior to the broadcast, celebrity presenters will use the mobile sound stage to record voiceovers. The voiceovers will be combined with video packages to be rolled in during Sunday evening’s live broadcast.

“The VOT trailer will give us studio quality sound on location,” said Ron Basile, Producer of the broadcast for AEG Ehrlich Ventures, LLC. “Having the mobile sound stage next to the theater is very convenient for scheduling our celebrities during rehearsals and assures that we’ll get network quality sound for the video packages.”

The VOT trailer will be hard wired to the production suite in the Nokia Theater and the recoded voiceovers will be fed to the profiles, a series of stacked hard drives, where on-site editors will have access to all the material.

The VOT trailer is independently powered by a Honda Whisper generator and air conditioned by a dual zone Fujitsu 18,000 BTU HVAC unit. The trailer is outfitted with digital sound recording technology including Pro Tools, Telos Xstream, Verizon wireless Internet, and top-of-the-line microphones.

The VOT trailer is also currently being used on location by the television series “Starter Wife” starring Deborah Messing. Parked alongside the shooting stage at Culver Studios, actors from the series can conveniently step into the mobile studio during breaks in shooting to do additional dialog recording (ADR). The mobile ADR trailer saves the production from having to schedule actors to travel to a studio on non-shooting days to record ADR.

“The difficulty of scheduling dialog pickups inspired the creation of Voice Over There,” explains Soleimani. “I wanted to find a convenient, cost-conscious way of accommodating talent in and around Southern California, whether they are at home, on set, or on location. With the VOT trailer, recording sound bytes and making them immediately accessible to post and production companies worldwide, has become a highly-efficient, one-stop process.”
