Forgot About Dre ft. Chris Pratt (with music)

I synced up Chris Pratt rapping to Forgot About Dre with the original backing track. Original video here: • Video
Vocal sync comparison with original Eminem vocals: • Chris Pratt vs Eminem ...
Creation process: Downloaded the original acapella and backing track. Brought them into Adobe Audition and synced them up with the full song. Then, muted everything but Eminem's vocals and spent a long time splitting and time stretching Pratt's vocals to line up exactly with the Eminem vocals. Added a vocal chain to Chris' vocals, and added a hard limiter to the whole thing. Muted Eminem's vocals, unmuted the backing track and exported the audio. Took it into Premiere, where I did the same splitting and time stretching process with the video as I did with the audio. (I could have done this in Audition, but I forgot). Synced my exported audio with the video I just made. Added the Dr. Dre part of the music video to the beginning. Used RGB Curves to tint the video, except for the pause in the middle. Exported that video and brought it into After Effects. Added a lens flare and motion tracked it to the video. Faded it out for the pause in the middle. Added the letter box, also fading them out for the pause. Went to Photoshop to create a curved picture of Chris, brought that back into After Effects. Motion tracked that into the magazine. Added my watermark. Export video. Done.

[@mikejulz87]

The original video he raps the verse really fast, this was edited along the beat as if he's actually rapping in the song

[@Zero-mz9xx]

To be fair being on tempo without the beat is kinda hard. Theres a reason acapella is respected in the music world and even then some acapella groups have people do the beat while the others do the lyrics.

[@shawnwillis767]

What’s impressive is he didn’t rap to no beat..the beat was added to his flow afterwards..
