ParticipantIt doesn´t matter if they know how to sing or not, is not like they will sing live, they may record the songs 1st and then just move their lips on filming, especially since there will be dance numbers and with all modern technologies even the worst singer in the world, has a voice that can grants them a grammy, from my knowledge only Colin can sing for real, all the others can suck but then on the episode, with the effects will show that they all have great voices.
Also the asterisks, what do they mean? are those the scenes that won`t have any singing? or are the scenes that will have singing?

Are you implying that some cast members could end up being auto-tuned? Guess that possibility can’t be ruled out. And yeah, apparently the asteriks do mean those scenes will involve singing. I heard Paul had an Instagram video, which may be where the initial photo originated from, and “*Denotes singing [third word cut off]” was visible at the bottom of the page.

ParticipantI think most of the cast can sing, a lot of them have done singing for roles before, the real question is do they want to sing? Colin will do well since he’s used to singing in a band.
What’s the odds on the singing episode turning out to be a dream of either Henry or Emma or something? It could be totally out of left field and be Pongo’s dream lol.
All magic comes with a price!

That’s possible. I just really want this episode to be relevant plot wise.

ParticipantLana cannot sing. She really truly cannot sing. I really hope she isn’t singing much. She even said she can’t.
She can carry a tune & she can rap….so Lana’s all good to go!

What im saying is that, when they are filming, unlike a live show or play( tho on live show i would not rule that out), they have lots of things to remember especially if there is dance, so that means when they are filming, that actually happens on musical films and tv show or even videoclips( i saw some explaining the making of), the casts and even singers are not actually singing for the cameras, the songs were previous recorded before and then they simply play, in order to help the actors, i mean they are not doing a live concert for the cameras and we all know that even on those, there are time on artists say that they are auto tuned and they simply move their lips to help them deal with the dance moves, im not saying they wont be singing, i`m saying the songs they are supposed to sing were already recorded by them before.
But mostly what i was saying is that, even if the cast doesn`t know how to sing very well, in studio, there are ways to make them look like they can sing, and i must say, singing one song for example in past projects is very different than singing original songs, where certain notes and tunes may be used and singing several songs, this only someone that had voice and music lessons knows, and like i said, only Colin i believe has experience with this area, i mean singers can became actors, but is very rare a actor become a singer.
So, if asterisks means scene with songs, so there will be 12 scenes with songs, the 1st group home bedroom, i assume is past emma again, and in those we can see who is singing or not, would mean maybe young Emma, Charming, maybe Snow???, Zelena, Regina/EQ, Hook , granny, dwarfs, gepetto and then a group song.

Keep in mind that some songs could make use of multiple locations. For example, how “Charming’s Castle Balcony” is directly followed by “Charming’s Bedroom”, and “Evil Queen’s Lair” is directly followed by “EQ’s Lair – Hall of Mirrors”.

ParticipantThey have to record the songs ahead otherwise the sound would be a mess. Also, with all the different camera angles, and musical episodes always have like weird stuff happens, especially if there is dancing of some sort, the song would be choppy and not work at all. It is like when they do a music video. They record the song and then they have the singer act like they are singing for the music video.
They regularly have to rerecord dialogue on Ouat because the sound doesn’t get picked up properly on location. You can actually hear it during the show. Sometimes one line of dialogue will sound like it is outside in a lot of space and then the next line will sound like an actor in a box because that is what it is. The echo changes. There is just no way they could get proper sound quality for songs on location.
Honestly, the more we hear about this episode. The more horrifying it seems. I think i am just going to laugh through the entire episode.

Galavant did live singing on location, according to several people who worked on the show. The way it worked was they’d record demos in the studio, and then sing live on camera with earpieces. Although they would mix between the studio and live takes to get the most optimal performances. I imagine OUAT will go the full studio recording followed by lip syncing route, though.

Simply carrying a tune does not qualify you as being able to sing. And please I couldn’t even handle the amount of embarrassment to see Regina rapping.
She can’t sing.
