011【Post-production】
Three weeks later, next to Yanjing Modern Avenue.
In a certain editing room called Zucchini Film and Television Post-production Company, Xia Ran and Ai Xiaoai were sitting around watching Luo Yuan complete the post-editing work of "Together Through the Window" bit by bit.
The door of the editing room was full of people.
From time to time, the post-production staff passing by turned their eyes into the No. 3 editing room and discussed in a low voice-
"That director is really awesome!"
"I wrote, directed, and acted by myself, and I also did the post-production myself. ”
"I've seen how efficiently he cuts films, as if each shot has already formed a clear picture in his mind, and if every director has his level, our editors should simply change careers. ”
The sound of intermittent discussions.
Luo Yuan turned a deaf ear to the discussion outside the door, and he was devoting himself to the editing work in front of him at the moment.
Xia Ran and Ai Xiaoai looked confused.
They knew very well that the protagonist of the discussion in the group of staff outside the door was Luo Yuan, who was sitting next to them-
But that's weird, isn't it?
When did Luo Yuan become so awesome?
The profession of director may know a little bit about editing, but what is the reason that your editing work is more complete than that of a professional editor?
I'm afraid I'm not grabbing a job?
Xia Ran and Ai Xiaoai couldn't forget the resentful eyes of the editor after being driven away by Luo Yuan.
However, the two didn't ask too much.
It may be that in the past two months, Luo Yuan has shown too many things that are different from his impression, so that both of them are a little numb.
Luo Yuan's editing went very smoothly.
In order to carry out his will, he had studied editing for a year in his previous life, and he was able to easily use related software, including Apple's funalcutpro.
The clip is first plywood.
Scene division, scene smoothing, these work, the editing assistant has helped Luo Yuan to complete.
Then the editor has to make a preliminary cut.
There is also a saying about rough cutting in the first cut, and then processing is completed after rough cutting, and the director of the film will generally follow the cut in this process, and finally the director can cut it if he feels that the content is okay.
Luo Yuan chose not to use an editor.
He can do the editing part in the later stage, of course, some parts that he is not very good at are honestly handed over to the professionals of this company to solve.
The division of labor is clear.
Editors are really not needed.
Because he already has the finished product in his mind, he himself is the most clever editor of this show, and every frame he cuts can be used as a finished product!
Rough cuts?
Fine cuts?
Inexistent.
Luo Yuan directly set the cut.
This is also the reason why the professional editor before was shocked by Luo Yuan, Luo Yuan's editing technique is so smooth that it is almost impossible to find flaws......
"Finally finished!"
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Luo Yuan, who had been silent and did not speak, suddenly stood up and stretched his waist:
"Here's the grading. ”
is different from the highlights of the original show.
This version shot by Luo Yuan is very professional and realistic, which refers to the lighting methods of some British dramas in previous lives, which can not only clearly show the actor's facial features, but also achieve a certain beauty effect.
Xia Ran said: "How long will it take?"
Luo Yuan thought for a while: "After the color grading is completed, the mixing part will be completed, and the film will be exported back to the project, and we can prepare for the next link first." ”
"Okay, no problem. ”
The three entered the recording studio on the ninth floor of the company.
The second link is to record two songs, the beginning, the end and even the interlude, there are no classic songs in the original version of "Together Through the Window", and Luo Yuan wants to make "Together Through the Window" a hit in this world's online dramas, you need to start from all aspects, and the song is a very good breakthrough.
The theme song he chose was "The Book of Youth".
This song is a song by the group Komi Kid in the previous life, and the two members of this group later died and disbanded, but the song is remembered by many people.
Luo Yuan has always liked this song.
The most important thing is that this song is not only very melodic, but also the lyrics are very consistent with the feelings of "Together Through the Window".
The ending song he chose was "Little Lucky".
This song is from the movie "My Girlhood", a movie that focuses on youth cards, and when it was released, it became a dark horse at the box office of the year, and it also became popular with an actor named Wang Dalu, and the song "Little Lucky" also rushed to the major music charts with the hit of the movie, and it was widely sung.
Luo Yuan believes that these two songs will not be obscure.
"Luo Yuan. ”
When he entered the recording studio, Xia Ran, who was in charge of singing "Youth Memorial Book", couldn't help but ask: "This song is very good, did you really write it?"
Obviously.
It's not the first time Xia Ran has asked this question.
"And "Little Lucky". ”
Ai Xiaoai also stared at Luo Yuan with burning eyes: "I feel that with the quality of these two songs, they can be directly used as the title album for some singers." ”
"Have you forgotten?"
Luo Yuan smiled: "I used to teach myself songwriting. ”
"Of course I remember, isn't it just for ......"
Xia Ran suddenly paused, carefully observed Luo Yuan's reaction, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "The past is over, let's record the song first." ”
"Yes, yes, yes. ”
Ai Xiaoai also hurriedly said: "Let's record the song, teacher, record my song "Little Lucky" first......"
"Okay. ”
The recording engineer made an OK gesture, Ai Xiaoai stood in front of the microphone, and Ai Xiaoai's singing voice soon sounded in the room......
Luo Yuan walked out the door.
Although Xia Ran and Ai Xiaoai are not professional singers, their singing level is stronger than that of ordinary people, after all, they are students of the acting department, and their talents are still relatively comprehensive.
He's thinking about it now......
On which platform will "Together Through the Window" be broadcast at that time?
There are a lot of video sites in China.
And at this moment, Xia Ran's somewhat apologetic voice came from behind him: "Luo Yuan, I shouldn't have mentioned that incident." ”
Luo Yuan smiled.
Of course he knew what Xia Ran meant.
The original owner did play songwriting for a while before, because the dream of the original owner's ex-girlfriend was to become a singer, and the original owner wrote songs entirely for this ex-girlfriend, although the original owner's ex-girlfriend had never sung the songs written by the original owner......
Later, the ex-girlfriend succeeded.
Later, they also broke up.
Stretching out his hand and patting Xia Ran's shoulder, Luo Yuan said half-truthfully: "I am no longer the Luo Yuan you know." ”
"I know ......"
Xia Ran only thought that Luo Yuan was stubborn: "You have really changed a lot during this time, I believe that this drama will not be bad, and I believe that she will regret breaking up with you in the future......"
Luo Yuan couldn't laugh or cry.
Did Xia Ran attribute his changes during this period of time to the blow of his career and love?
Well, that doesn't seem bad......
At least I don't have to go through the hassle of explaining or covering up anything.
