BRINGING THE MAGIC OF REMOTE ADR TO FEATURE FILM, ICE FALL, AT SUMMITSTAR STUDIOS!
At Summitstar Studios, we’re excited to be providing ADR (Automated Dialogue Replacement) services for Ice Fall, a thrilling new feature film directed by Stefan Ruzowitzky.
The Production:
Starring a stellar cast, including Joel Kinnaman, Danny Huston, Graham Greene, and Martin Sensmeier, Ice Fall brings together suspense, danger, and breathtaking landscapes. The Ice Fall story revolves around a young Native American game warden who captures a notorious poacher only to learn that the poacher is aware of the location of a plane carrying millions of dollars that has crashed in a frozen lake.
What is ADR?
ADR (Automated Dialogue Replacement) allows filmmakers to replace or enhance dialogue that may have been compromised during on-location shooting. Given the intense and rugged filming environments featured in Ice Fall, this process is essential for capturing clear, high-quality dialogue that syncs perfectly with the actors’ performances on screen.
