The Dubbing Modification Agreement (“Dubbing Agreement”) covers the the employment of performers dubbing English language sound track to be used in connection with motion pictures initially produced in another language or the dubbing of new English language sound track to replace an English sound track which lacks the appropriate fluency in English. Similarly, under the Spanish Language Modification (Dubbing) Agreement (“Spanish Dubbing Agreement”), the agreement covers the employment of performers for the purpose of dubbing sound track into Spanish language to be used in connection with motion pictures initially produced in a language other than Spanish. The dubbing performer must work “to picture,” synchronizing the on- and off-camera dialogue of the English language script adaptation. Looping and ADR work are not specifically covered under these dubbing agreements, they are instead covered by the Basic Codified Agreement, except in circumstances where a star performer loops his/her own performance in a foreign produced motion picture in association with dubbing performers.
