LIPDUB



lip dub is a type of video that combines lip synching and audio dubbing to make a music video. It is made by filming individuals or a group of people lip synching while listening to a song or any recorded audio then dubbing over it in post editing with the original audio of the song. 
Often they look like simple music videos, although many involve a lot of preparation and production. 

This is our LIPDUB, made by all the school community in Ramón de Campoamor School, in Navia- Asturias.

It was a really good time. We enjoyed it a lot.
