Thank you for the articles - they should come in handy.
It's not a matter of lip-sync that I'm worried about, but the obvious "voice over" in comparison to the talent's questions which are going to sound like they are actually in the room (because they are).
Then record the questions "actually in the room".
(Or in a similar room after the fact.)
It's difficult to explain - maybe think of the difference between the person being interviewed on a news program
and the voice-over of the reporter explaining what's happened (this example coming to mind because the news is on TV right now).
The professionals do this by re-recording the questions
in the same room with the same microphone, after the
interview is done.
<amusing but irrelevant>
Note that the famous US "news" show "60 Minutes" got in big trouble for editing in *different* questions than were originlly asked. Now their policy is to re-record the questions while the the interviewee sits there. :-)
<back to reality>
If I go for a lapel microphone that isn't wireless, how do you hide the wire?
First, you have to ask yourself whether it is really
important to *hide* the microphone. TV viewers
are pretty sophisticated. They know that it takes a
microphone to be able to hear what is on the screen.
Note that a wireless microphone has exactly the
same wire between the micropone and the belt
pack transmitter. :-)
Is there any way to edit the wire out in post-production?
No practical way. People with unlimited budgets
don't even try this.
