Deleting Portions of Breaths

Breathing is part of speaking.

If you were to delete all of a person’s breaths between speaking, that would sound extremely unnatural.

Probably the only thing that sounds more unnatural than that is when you remove, let’s say, half of a breath. It will sound really weird.

So when you’re editing out pauses or “dead air,” be sure not to chop off parts of anyone’s breaths.
