Babies in dramas
5 Answers
When I see a baby in, for example a film or a soap opera and the adults around it are screaming or crying or shouting - what effect does this have on the baby and how is this legal?! It's not as if you can explain to the baby the terror/fury/sadness of the adult isn't real.

That's because the child has been taken out of earshot while these scenes are shot, and then shots of the child are taken separately and added in. In the case where the child is in shot, the actor or actress has mimed their lines silently, and the dialogue is edited in afterwards. This means that children and babies are not exposed to shouting and swearing, it is all done with clever editing. On occasions where a child or baby is in the shot, they simply cry because of the noise, and if that is the case, you'll see that the shots are very brief, and the child is crying for an absolute minimum of time.
