lipsyncing
Mouthing recorded vocals
Lipsyncing is mouthing words to a prerecorded audio track, matching lip movements to vocals someone else sang or you sang earlier.
Performers lipsync at concerts when live singing isn't practical; actors lipsync to dubbed dialogue.
On social media, lipsyncing to popular songs or audio clips has become its own art form.
Also spelled lip-syncing or lip syncing.
