It's not easy to train voice actors.

One of the biggest problems is that at present, the state does not give any professional certificates to voice actors, that is, even if you have strong strength, but you don't have a certificate, others can't understand you through the system, only through live auditions. But there are too many unstable factors in this kind of on-site audition, not to mention that many large enterprises will not even give the opportunity to audition without a certificate.

As for those voice actors who are already working?

People either have connections and channels, or they have been working for a long time, and it is not easy for newcomers to enter the industry. Besides, the orthodox way in China today should be to take the university entrance examination for the broadcasting and hosting major, and then if you are interested in dubbing, you can try to change careers. But the problem is that many people either can't get into the ideal university, and if they do, they may not be interested in the job of voice actors, and the result is that it is difficult for the people to find suitable voice actors. As for voice actors, it is not easy to find a suitable job.

This is a vicious circle, there is no good upward channel, there will be fewer people who naturally learn, fewer people will learn, the number of masters will decrease, and the industry will not see the way out.

Therefore, it is not advisable to take a serious way, and the Yuanfang Group simply recruits people directly in the circle of voice actors, first looking for experts in the cultivation of voice actors in Fusang, and the experts will identify the talents and abilities of these people, and then those who pass will directly sign a contract with the Yuanfang Group. From the beginning of the training, these people have become regular employees of the Yuanfang Group, not to mention the insurance, the benefits are also very good, and the Yuanfang Group promises in the contract how many minutes of dubbing tasks per year.

Don't think it's oppressive, in fact, as a voice actor, it's definitely a good thing to be able to get a stable dubbing duration.

Dubbing is a job where talent and experience are indispensable, and many people have good talent, but because there is not enough dubbing time for him to accumulate experience, this talent will slowly wear off. Doing a commercial dubbing of a work is definitely different from practicing it at home. Who can say whether it is good or bad when practicing on one's own? People have a problem, that is, as long as they focus on a certain ability, temperament, or appearance in themselves, they will always subconsciously beautify themselves. It's not impossible to practice dubbing at home, but because of the subjective influence of the subconscious, it is difficult for most people to accurately discover their own problems.

But what if it is a commercial dubbing? Naturally, there are people from Party A on the side to supervise, and if there is any problem, it can be raised as soon as possible, and then corrected.

Over time, people who have enough commercial dubbing time will naturally have a higher level of practice than those who practice behind closed doors.

What Yuanfang Group can provide is dubbing opportunities within the group, from games to animation, from animation to film and television works, as long as you are willing to do it, there is enough space.

Therefore, the recruitment of newcomers in the dubbing department within the group is very smooth, and now it is the third phase, with more than 300 people in the first phase, more than 500 people in the second phase, and less than 500 people in the third phase. Not long after the third phase began, let's not talk about this, let's just say that the 800 people in the first two phases have greatly enriched the talent pool of Yuanfang Group.

The specific training process is complex and the requirements for the individual are quite high.

The first is speech correction.

To be a good voice actor, the first step is to have standard language expression, but everyone may have more or less square sounds before entering the industry, such as: front and back nasal voices, flat tongue parts, and wrong pronunciation positions. Specifically, it includes the basis of gas, voice, and speech, and the key point is to solve the voice problems of the trainees in a targeted manner. After all, it is the language that eats, so the first step is to be precise in pronunciation.

Then there is the release of nature.

Don't think that voice actors don't have to release their nature, voice actors are also actors, in the end, they are actors who perform with their voices. There is a saying in the market: an actor may not necessarily dub, but he will act if he can dub. Use the voice to shape the characters, the world, the ugliness of life, all kinds of emotions: joy, anger, sorrow, fear, all kinds of emotions of the characters, and the release of nature can shape the characters, so it is necessary to release the nature. In the classroom of professional voice actor training, some training will be done to release the nature, such as: seed practice, king practice, imitation training, etc.

After the release of nature is quite effective, it is the relief of the voice acting skills.

This is the most important part - line training, voice plus performance training, how to lip-synching? how to interpret works of different styles and themes in film and television animation, special advertisements, costume dramas, modern dramas, and dubbed films, and what should be taken into account in dubbing? What should I pay attention to when entering the recording studio? Cognition of microphones and recording studios? How to quickly enter the characters? How to shape the voice modeling of different characters? What to do when you can't find emotions and feelings...... These have to be practiced step by step, and every step must not be sloppy.

In the end, of course, it is the actual battle between the recording studio and the studio.

With these acting and voice foundations, there will generally be seniors who will take you into the studio to fight, first to observe and see how the senior voice actors dub them, and if you have the opportunity, the director will arrange for you to record some group and some small roles. Of course, some dead people may also be recorded, and will the dead still make a sound? It will be unforgettable for a lifetime: the dead will scream.

In short, voice actors are definitely not just anyone who can do well, and if you want to succeed, you have to learn and practice more.

Zhou Fangyuan patrolled the floor of the distant anime, mainly to see how the level of these voice actors was, and before he knew it, he walked to the vicinity of the practice room.

"Dong Zhou, you came by coincidence, it just so happened that today we invited a well-known dubbing master in China and asked him to give a lecture to the students. ”

Xu Qifeng said with a smile next to him.

"Oh?"

Zhou Fangyuan was interested when he heard it, and couldn't help but approach the training room.

Then he heard the words of the master.

“…… The ability requirements are very high, no less than the requirements of a good sketch actor. Unless it's one-on-one.

The situation in the 'professional' dubbing industry in our country is very complicated, and there is a certain resistance to newcomers joining in, unless there is a very hard relationship, and on the other hand, the reason is that under the commercial dubbing system, people who only have enthusiasm and talent but are still novices are not welcome, because no one wants to waste time guiding you. Of course, it would be best if he could recognize a 'master', but he had to be famous, competent, and willing to bring newcomers.

But don't be discouraged, I'll give you a few suggestions.

First, grasp the gap in the dubbing world. Although the monopoly of the film and television dubbing industry is relatively strong, however, there is still a need for a large number of dubbing talents in the fields of advertising, animation, games, audiobooks and flash, and these fields are relatively new industries, so the experience and quality requirements for dubbing are not very high.

Second, don't wait for the rabbit. The circles or websites of voice actors that you know are actually very immature. Although there are also some professionals who browse, their attitude towards netizens is not very positive. Interested and confident friends can find opportunities on their own through job advertisements on the Internet, and there are still a lot of these jobs. This is how several of my former broadcasting students found odd jobs. Maybe compared to the broadcasting department, many of you lack professional training, but that doesn't mean that you can't do it. Sending a voice message or phone call to the recruiter to recommend yourself and lowering the asking price is very attractive to the recruiter.

In addition, it is especially important to mention that the animation industry in our country is not mature yet, and I think animation is the best opportunity for the development of dubbing in our country, so wait a minute. In fact, many animations are now also recruiting newcomers to participate in dubbing, and everyone can take the initiative to look for opportunities.

Finally, I would like to add that even being pulled into the professional voice acting circle does not mean that it is a good thing. Dubbing is not a stable job, and once you make a career out of it, it means that in order to survive, you have to match a lot of things that you don't love, and over time, you are likely to become a dubbing machine and lose your old passion. This is how many voice actors bury their talents. Therefore, it is not a good thing to be a ticket holder. And the most important thing is that our country's dubbing system is very imperfect, and I can responsibly say that there is at least 50 years behind our country compared with the system in Fuso.

Therefore, I would also like to advise students who are motivated by their passion for dubbing because of their love for Japanese voice actors.

We still have a long way to go before we can achieve the level of Fuso. Friends who dream of living and working like voice actors should be realistic.

A word of advice, if you don't get your hopes up, you won't be disappointed. ”

The voice of the dubbing master came from the classroom, and Zhou Fangyuan listened expressionlessly.

Xu Qifeng began to wipe his sweat, "What, Dong Zhou, I'll go in and ask him to stop......"

"No, he's right, let's just listen. ”

Zhou Fangyuan didn't stop it, why did he stop it, because what people said was right, the gap is indeed big, and especially what the other party said, don't easily use this job as a main job, in fact, it's not bad. Of course, Zhou Fangyuan knew all about it, but what could he do? If the group didn't come forward to organize the training course, where would they find enough talent? So after running the training course, we had to ensure that we would not teach a bunch of white-eyed wolves, and we also had to ensure that these people who had no jobs for the time being could survive, and it was too much to sign a long-term contract?

After the contract is signed, do you have to arrange a job for others? It will indeed affect the talent of many people, but there is no way to do it, if you don't do this, where can you find so many voice actors?

So what the other party said was right, and he naturally had no reason to stop it.

And the words in it have also changed again.

"I have to say, the chances of your group of people are really good. Yuanfang Group is a very famous group in the industry, I know that many of you have heard of its name, and you know how big it is, but you don't know that Yuanfang Group needs to be able to serve as voice actors for a long time, according to our private estimates, at least 1,000 people. Do you want people for the movies and TV series of Yuanfang Media? Do you want people for the various games of Yuanfang Games? Do you want people for the cartoons made by Yuanfang Animation? Even including the various small programs in the mobile apps that you are familiar with, do you want people in them?

You need people, and this is your chance. Some people may wonder why I said that this is your opportunity, since I said that you will lose your talent by working for a long time? Even if there are people with relevant talents, there are also people who are strong and some people who are weak, and the strong can naturally rise to the top through other ways, and people who really lack talent, even if they are long-term jobs, they may not be able to wear out their talents, but ordinary people can't, ordinary people, you don't care about talent or not, whether you can live is a question.

Since you have a love for dubbing and want to work on it, then now is your chance, don't worry about it so much, train hard first, and when you can really become a qualified voice actor, even if you can't do it here anymore, there are naturally other places that need you. ”

As soon as these words came out, the cold sweat on Xu Qifeng's forehead became even more.

Zhou Fangyuan nodded and didn't say anything.

"Okay, let's talk about it.

The first thing I want to tell you is what it means to be a voice actor. In a broad sense, a voice actor is a person who gives dialogue to a film, and in a narrow sense, a person who voices a character. In addition to the translation of the film, the voice actor is required to record the lines, in some films, because the actor's voice is not good, the language is not standard, or does not meet the requirements of the character's personality, they do not use their own voice, and the voice actor is asked to dub the film during the post-recording. Nowadays, most voice actors refer to voice actors in a broad sense, and the types of work of voice actors have become more diverse, rather than just voicing characters.

There are two types of voice actors: professional voice actors, also known as professional voice actors, who have received voice acting training and use dubbing as a profession, specializing in dubbing movies, television, animation, foreign language programs, and behind-the-scenes narration. Non-professional voice actors are people who do not have dubbing as their main profession, and most of the non-professional voice actors on Hong Kong Island are actors or singers, but their voice acting skills are often criticized. It is generally believed that the use of celebrity dubbing is mainly for the promotion of the star, not for the promotion of the film.

There are also independent creators who dub their works, but most viewers pay more attention to the quality of their works and rarely care about the quality of their dubbing.

The specific requirements for voice actors are actually not complicated, first of all, Mandarin must be standard, secondly, they must have high performance ability and imitation ability, and then they must be able to change their voice. Know how to play music or dance and have a good image. Finally, it is necessary to have agile responses and accumulate many years of dubbing experience......"

There were still voices coming out of the classroom, but Zhou Fangyuan had already taken a step forward and continued to walk forward.
