January 4th, 2007Guide to Making a Voice Over Parody – by XarJ

So you’re interested in making a “Voice Over Parody” of a famous song?
Guide to creating a “Voice Over Parody” of a song “a la Xarj” :
Ingredients you need :
-Good quality video clip file
-Instrumental version (without singing) of the song
-Regular voice + music mp3 file of the song.
-I also like to find the accapella voices of the song in case i can’t sing, so i use the original voices. (a bit modified)
-You’ll need to print out the lyrics of the song
-Obviously, you need a microphone to record your voice!
-It’s a big help to use earphones when you record your voice
-I use Adobe Audition software to record my voice and modify the sound files.
-I use Adobe Premiere to synchronize and create the final video file. Video + different sound tracks. You could use any video creation software. Adobe Premiere is the best one.
