That works for some videos. Others you would want to film a block of content ahead of time and then edit it into videos.
Its one of the things Steve was a bit harsh on in his video. Just getting someone back into the studio to re-record a three minute video can be a challenge when they are also head of writing (and busy sexually harassing everyone around them…). Odds are a good chunk of those three minute videos are filmed in the same two hour block of time weeks ahead of time.
Of course, this is what he alluded to when pointing out how insanely wrong the “random CPU” video was: ADR is a thing and all you need is a shot where the presenter’s mouth is not on screen. Yes, this doesn’t work for talking head shots. But for anything with B-Roll, you have the kind of fix that can be done in the time it takes to call someone on the phone.
The fact they don’t just fix it in post with audio is insane to me.
They can do it, I remember several insances where they have (f.e. Linus voicing over with his phone mic). It’s a bit jarring when not shot on the same equipment, but it’s so worth it
