Putting it All Together
If your master VCR doesn't have audio dubbing then you really only have two choices. Go to another generation to add your extra audio or try adding the extra audio during the editing process (which can be a nightmare). Audio dubbing can be just as tricky (and frustrating) as video editing but it may be worth it in the end.
Summary I know that I haven't covered everything in this chapter and I'm sure that you will find other ways to do things. Remember that most of the ideas here are just suggestions and outlines that you can follow or not You may also run into problems that I haven't mentioned. It is fortunate that there are so many companies making different products of use to the desktop video producer but that also means that some things won't work with others. It is always best to try something out before you sell the idea to someone else. It is also a good idea to start out with just a few simple things rather than trying to do everything in your first production.
