Video: Lawrence High lip dubs "Kids In America"

Posted by Nick Spacek on Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 9:00 AM

So, what makes a "lip dub" more impressive than, say, that video of the two girls lip-syncing the Pixies' "Hey" on YouTube? Well, according to Wikipedia, a lip dub 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. There is often some form of mobile audio device used such as an iPod. Often, they look like simple music videos, although many involve a lot of preparation and are well produced. The most popular lip dubs are done in a single unedited shot that often travels through different rooms and situations in, say, an office building.

They're pretty damned impressive, actually. Lawrence High School did one featuring their 2010 winter court -- as well as dozens of other students -- performing Kim Wilde's 1981 classic, "Kids In America."

Thanks to everyone on Facebook who submitted this.

Hi there. I'm truly interested on this theme. Will anyone be composing whatever else on the subject of this?
