Chapter 189: The Only One
"In the later stage, all the shots of the matrix were added with a thin layer of green. Chu Shun said to the two editing assistants.
The short and tall nodded, and they didn't ask why, even though the director's instructions were strange.
Strictly speaking, Chu Shun's request is very strange, and it is not strange to add a layer of green filter in the later stage, changing green to red is the commonly used lens language in bloody and violent films, rendering exciting.
can be added to the matrix shots according to Chu Shun's requirements, which accounts for at least half of the content of the film, which is too rare.
Regarding this, it is an ingenuity, when "The Matrix" began to play, even the logo of the production company was green, and at that time someone said "Warner is finally green".
The green label plus the green code in front of it, the thin green filter, is actually expressing that the world is false, code programming.
Of course, ordinary movie fans can't see it at all, because the green is too light, anyway, in his previous life, Chu Shun watched the movie four times as a film critic and didn't notice it, and the reason why he knew it later was because he only knew it through an interview with the Wachowski sisters.
Chu Shun retained, and also designed another ingenuity, the green oracle bone code flowing at the beginning, if someone is too idle to pause and look at it, and then record and translate the oracle bone inscription, the content is: "The former Zhuang Zhoumeng is Hu Die, and the lifelike Hu Die is also ......"
Chu Shun's editing has always been fast, especially the tacit understanding between the two editing assistants, and the editing of "The Matrix" was completed in three weeks.
"I was the editor of a movie before, and I was nominated for Best Editing at the Hundred Flowers Awards, although I didn't win the award, but it is also worth celebrating, hehe wants to invite the director to dinner." β
He immediately added: "I also studied [drag editing], so I want to thank the director......"
"Wait. Chu Shun heard an unfamiliar word: "What is a drag clip?"
"Director, don't you know?" Gao on the side was surprised, and then explained: "[Cross-dressing editing] refers to the director's editing style, which is an important part of the composition of the film. β
"Who took the name?" Chu Shun just wanted to know about this matter, he was simply the scum of the naming world, is it good to get out of the naming world! This name sounds as improper, as improper.
"I forgot, it seems to be from a book published by the famous film critic Su Shiji in the first half of the year. The tall man frowned and recalled, but he didn't recall the title either.
"It's called "Absolute Shooting", or "Absolute Movie", anyway, Su Shiji used a lot of pen and ink to use Chu Dao you as an example, and then this name appeared. "Short added.
It's no wonder that the verbal cannons between Su Shiji and Professor Yang Wei are both lost, and the difference is enough to see from the level of naming.
Yang Wei: "Stacking Block Shooting"
Su Shiji: "Drag Editing"
Chu Shun was thinking about the name, and then came back to his senses and saw the short man looking at him very expectantly.
"No problem, just hungry. Chu Shun nodded in agreement.
Time flies, thinking back to four years ago, 26-year-old Dai Jun, who didn't understand anything at the time, had only been in the industry for two years, and cooperated with him in a few years, Chu Shun was also a demonstration of a handful of and urine, but I didn't expect to be nominated for the Hundred Flowers Award now.
The above Chu Shun recalled according to the standard process, but it always felt weird.
"It's really old!" Chu Xijing sighed with emotion when he ate at the short Dai Jun, who had just turned thirty this year.
Having said that, Dai Jun has been nominated, what about the tall He Sansui?
Looking at the tall man who was really happy for his friends, Chu Shun thought about it and didn't ask.
Eating is a dry pot, known as the second pot in the capital, the taste is moderate, the three of them finished eating, Chu Shun also returned to the hotel.
Entering the next step of the soundtrack, the soundtrack of "The Matrix" was written by Don Davis, Davis is not well-known in the soundtrack circle, mainly serving as the soundtrack for independent films and TV series, the hacker trilogy is his pinnacle work, it is worth mentioning the live-action version of the earth's Tokyo foodie, which is also a Davis soundtrack.
The Lin Kai Pegasus Symphony Orchestra played the piece very easily, and then took it to the recording studio to add electronic music, and the ten soundtracks were recorded easily, compared to the previous original soundtrack of "Paradise Cinema", there is no difficulty.
"No, I thinkβ"
Chu Shun, who got the soundtrack and walked out of the recording studio, suddenly had a new idea, in fact, the soundtrack of the entire hacker series, Chu Shun's favorite is the third ending song "Navras", which is sung in Sanskrit at the beginning, and the choir casts a strong sense of epic.
This style, Chu Shun still likes the domestic "Golden Curse", of course, it is even less famous, so I won't talk about it.
Chu Shun himself likes the first and second parts of the hacker series the most, and the lottery mode may not be able to draw the third part of the follow-up, so he has decided to move "Navras" out in advance, and the shock is to give enough at one time.
"Is there anything that the boss didn't take?" The orchestra manager couldn't help but ask when he saw Chu Shun who was going and returning, and the next second he was ready to return to the recording studio with the boss.
"You don't have to come along with a new soundtrack when you think of it. Chu Shun returned to the recording studio, and then roughly talked to the music producer Wang Yue about his request.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether the boss will be able to clearly express his needs.
In his previous life, when Chu Shun was receiving orders, when he was praising the movie, Party A had to say that he couldn't express the connotation of the movie by writing like this, and he wanted to do that and that.
has the connotation of Nima, cough cough seems to expose something, but it is not chilling to make money.
The soundtrack "Navras" needs a choir to set off, as well as a female voice to sing harmony, Chu Shun didn't know where to find it, but Chu Shun invited Wang Yue, the music producer who managed the recording studio, knew, and after thinking for a while, he gave Chu Shun the choir he wanted.
Choirs are closely related to the church, mainly singing praises to God, and there are very few choirs in China, and Chu Shun is not a brainless choir, he just needs a group that can sing this way.
Therefore, Wang Yue recommended to Chu Shun a choir that could meet the requirements - the Demon Capital Xingyue Choir.
"Thank you for recommending, are there any other alternatives?" Chu Shun asked.
Wang Yue said: "The Xiamen Philharmonic Choir should also meet the requirements of the boss, but I personally recommend choosing Xingyue, the former has a lot of mobility. β
Chu Shun nodded and reassured Wang Yue's words, saying that Wang Yue is a music producer, more precisely, the head of the recording studio, and when Chu Shun is not in use, the specific maintenance and normal leasing are all managed by Wang Yue.
"It's a pity that a world-class composer became a director. Wang Yue thought about it again, he remembered that the Pegasus Symphony Orchestra was bought for the dubbing of the movie.
"The boss won't buy the choir directly, right?" Wang Yue had an unreliable idea in his heart.
"Probably not. β
"Symphony orchestras are often used because the boss is shooting movies, and choirs are completely unnecessary. β
"Now the symphony orchestra is famous in Europe because of the soundtrack of "Cinema Paradiso", and has been invited to tour Italy, France and Russia, and the boss's investment has also made a lot of money. β
"Think about it seriously, Boss Chu is also a person who plans and then acts. β
......
When Chu Shun returned home, he began to investigate, there are many types of choirs, which are roughly divided into academy, spiritual music, polyphony, oratorio, etc., and the two choirs recommended by Wang Yue are both academy styles.
There are special investigation companies on the market, just entrust the investigation, Chu Shun has always believed that professional matters should be handed over to professional people.
The results of the survey are the same as Wang Yue's recommendation, and in more detail, in terms of the strength of the two choirs, the Philharmonic is stronger, but the Xiamen Philharmonic Choir is indeed very mobile, mainly because the members love the old head more.
Directly led to the unpleasant cooperation in the back, it stands to reason that if you buy it, as long as you invite the old head back, everything will be fine.
The logic is right.
But the old coin Chu Shun, looking at things can always only look at the worst side, thinking about how much the old head is loved, so that the three consecutive head and the team members can't get along, this is one of them.
Second, why is the boss of the Xiamen Philharmonic Choir reluctant to invite the old head back when he sees this situation?
Chu Shun knew it in his heart, and found a day to watch the performance of the Xingyue Choir, this choir is actually quite powerful, and the finances are still profitable every month, Chu Shun glanced at his account balance and started.
Why is it not a loss, the boss is willing to sell, it is very simple, on the one hand, it is a premium, and on the other hand, the long-term income also needs to wait for time.
There is a choir, a symphony orchestra, and a recording studio, Chu Shun can do whatever music he wants, not to mention that he is the same in China, and there is no second one in the world.
Chu Shun was very satisfied with the recording results, the post-editing and soundtrack were done, just waiting for the special effects of XF Digital, Chu Shun, who was idle, was ready to find something to do.
It is a good choice for the crew to visit the class, and the object of the visit is Jin Yaohua's movie "Angry City".
A very unfamiliar name, Chu Shun also felt very unfamiliar, more precisely, he didn't know it before.
Kim Yaohua, who is not a director from a college and has been shooting commercials, is now three years Chinese New Year's Eve old, and last year he used his savings to shoot a film about a girl who suffers from severe depression and has a day off at home.
There are no other characters, the eighty-seven minutes are all one-man shows of the heroine, there is no going out, the whole film is in the bedroom, and there are only two phone calls connecting to the outside world, one is a phone call from the mother who cares, and the other is a phone call from a girlfriend who has fallen out of love again and complains.
Chu Shun watched it after knowing Jin Yaohua's name, the movie is really good, the key is that the image style is not gloomy, and the content of the film is also inspirational.
No matter whether "she" is also a group representing depressed patients, no matter how difficult it is, she is still trying to see the sun tomorrow.
was nominated for Best Screenplay at the Sundance Film Festival, although it did not win the award, it also received a lot of attention, and the second film investment was much easier to find.
Liu Guanhong is also one of the people who admire Jin Yaohua, so "Angry City" has given a lot of help.
Earlier, Chu Shun recommended Rui Ying to audition for Liu Shanhong's new film Female No. 2, and then failed in the audition, to be precise, she lost to Yang Yu.
It's not all without benefits, Liu Shanhong feels that Rui Ying is particularly suitable for Jin Yaohua's new film "Angry City", and the female one who has not yet been found changed hands and recommended the past.
On the one hand, it is really suitable, and on the other hand, it is Chu Shun's face.
Jin Yaohua didn't audition for actors, it all depended on his eyes, and when he saw Rui Ying, he felt that she was the best candidate for the heroine, and signed a contract at the speed of light.
"The popularity of this movie is also too low. Chu Shun pondered, searched on the Internet, and basically there was no news.
Seriously, Chu Shun is now famous and prestigious, and he went to "Angry City", you can imagine the reaction of the crew......
