This meant that his voice wasn't confined to movie theaters.
People could hear him introducing programs, presenting radio content, playing characters, and appearing in films.
His voice became part of the broader soundscape of French popular culture.
## The Art of Dubbing
The work of dubbing actors is sometimes overlooked.
Audiences naturally focus on the person visible on screen.
But when a foreign film is dubbed, another actor must essentially recreate the performance in another language.
The timing has to match.
The emotion has to work.
The dialogue has to fit the actor's movements.
And the new performance has to feel natural rather than like a simple translation being read aloud.
This makes dubbing an unusual form of acting.
Beretta understood this craft deeply.
In a 1994 Los Angeles Times profile about French dubbing, he described the work of becoming another actor's voice as difficult but enjoyable, particularly his experience performing Schwarzenegger.
