Chapter 54: Watching the Film

"Is it necessary?" Dean hesitated for a moment, but said, "We're not film critics, let's take a look and tell if it can really be shortlisted for the Oscars?"

"At least the attitude has to be put out," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Although we are only a student band, we also attach great importance to our works." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe more formal we are, the more the other party will value us. Besides, aren't you curious about what post-production of animated films looks like? Now that you have such an opportunity, would you like to open your eyes?"

"You have a point. Dean agreed, "At least I've never seen what post-production looks like for a movie, even if it's an animated film." ”

"Okay, then it's decided, see you tomorrow!" Xiao Yao ended the conversation.

"See you tomorrow, and have a great night. Dean said, happily hanging up the phone.

When Xiao Yao returned, only Keith and Betty were left in the music room, and Horn and Ron had already left. I think both of them are no longer interested in staying here and continuing to play.

Sure enough, Betty explained to Xiao Yao with a smile: "Horn went to prepare the contract, and Ron went to arrange tomorrow's movie, and they couldn't wait to leave." They are all acute, and often so. ”

"It doesn't matter. Xiao Yao spread his hands and smiled, he has seen a lot of professionals with this kind of temperament since he was a child.

"Let's go, when we're done talking, it's time to relax. Let's go down. Keith suggested to Xiao Yao.

"One more thing," Xiao Yao said as he looked at Keith, "you heard Ron just say that our band needs to give him the official studio version of this song." Can you please put us in touch with a recording studio, or recommend one to us? In Los Angeles, you're certainly more familiar with this than a few of us middle school students. ”

"No problem," Keith said, "I'm a producer myself, and if you can trust me, I'll record this song for you." Our "Daydream" band has its own dedicated recording studio, right in downtown Los Angeles. ”

"Of course I believe in you," Xiao Yao said relaxedly, "so thank you so much." I don't even know how to express my gratitude. ”

"Friends, needless to say. Keith waved his hand and smiled, "You and Betty have known each other for seven years, and you are her friend, and of course my friend, and I like you too." So you don't have to say thank you. ”

"But," Keith continued with a sudden smile, "if you really want to show your gratitude, I have an idea. ”

"What? You say, as long as I can do it, I'll do my best. Xiao Yao said sincerely.

"After a while, our band will go on tour. If nothing else, we have one in Los Angeles just before Christmas at the end of the year, and how about your band come and give us a warm-up performance for this concert in Los Angeles for free?" Keith suggested.

"Where's the reward? It's clearly another great opportunity to come to you. Xiao Yao thought gratefully. Not to mention what a warm-up performance for idol Keith Craig's band would make Dean happy. Just doing a warm-up performance for the "Daydream" band itself is an opportunity for "Daydream" to promote "Immortals" and help them promote and increase their popularity. On other not-so-famous bands, this is an opportunity that you can't necessarily get with money, but Keith said it as an opportunity to help his band record and return the favor, which really made Xiao Yao not know how to express his inner gratitude.

"You don't want to?" Seeing that Xiao Yao didn't respond immediately, Keith asked.

"No, of course we are willing, not to mention free, this is an opportunity that you can't even ask for money," Xiao Yao hurriedly agreed.

"Don't talk too soon," Keith laughs, "TeenageVigilantes is expected to be released in early December, and by around Christmas, maybe your band will be on fire because of the theme song of the movie, and it's hard to say if you're willing to give us a free warm-up guest." But now that you've agreed, don't go back on that time. ”

"I promise. Xiao Yao immediately resolutely stated his attitude.

I didn't expect to just come to Betty's house as a second guest, and I received so many unexpected surprises, Xiao Yao felt that this time it was really worth it.

Xiao Yao, who was extremely happy in his heart, also had a lot of fun on the ladder later. In front of everyone, Xiao Yao didn't drink anymore, but he was so excited that he looked like he had drunk.

After the ladder ended, Xiao Yao was arranged by Betty to stay in the guest room. The next morning, Keith drove Xiao Yao in his car and went directly to the studio where the post-production of "TeenageVigilantes" was underway.

Along the way, Keith casually chatted with Xiao Yao about some musical topics. Xiao Yao has studied with Xiao Siqi for more than ten years, and he has absolutely authentic materials, plus there are many classic music works in his brain from his previous life that are corroborated by what he has learned, and he also has his own uniqueness in terms of opinions.

Therefore, along the way, Keith is more and more sure that Xiao Yao is a genius and will be able to shine in the field of music in the future. The only regret is that Xiao Yao is a Chinese who will return to China in a year, and he will not be able to continue to develop in the American music industry in the near future. If Xiao Yao is an American, even if he is Chinese, Keith is confident that he can help him become a super newcomer who is now the most popular in the American music industry, Bill Justin.

After waiting at the door of the studio for about twenty minutes, Xiao Yao waited for the arrival of the other four members.

Probably thinking of coming to a place like a movie studio, the image is reasonable, the four of them are carefully dressed, and Sarmien, who is driving, does not drive her second-hand car, but Mrs. Smith's relatively new car.

Seeing Mrs. Smith's car arrive, Xiao Yao immediately opened the car door and walked over, greeting the four companions.

First said hello to Xiao Yao happily, and after seeing Keith Craig who came with Xiao Yao, the three guys Dean, Mike and George immediately greeted their idol and surrounded them.

Sarmeon's performance was relatively calm, he didn't go to Keith Craig, just looked at Xiao Yao and said, "Thank you for all this for the band." ”

"It's nothing, I'm part of the band. Xiao Yao smiled, took out his mobile phone and began to call Ron Distin.

"It's a pity that it's only for one year. Sarmien muttered quietly, but unfortunately Xiao Yao, who was calling Ron to inform him of the arrival of all members of his band, did not hear it.

It didn't take long for Ron Distin to pick up everyone at the door of the studio.

"Hello, I'm Ron Distin, and welcome to you. After a brief hello to the bandmates, Ron looked at Keith Craig and said, "Keith, you're here too." Equally welcome. ”

"Don't look at me, my role today is Jan's driver. Keith smiled humorously, "I'll just sit outside in the car and wait for Young." ”

"Keith Craig is driving for Young?" Dean and the others looked at Xiao Yao in surprise.

"Don't joke with me," Ron laughed, "since you're here, of course come in and watch our original film." At most, I will allow you not to make any comments. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be a joke. Dean and the others were relieved.

Ron led everyone into the studio, first took everyone for a brief tour, and then took everyone to the movie screening room.

When everyone arrived at the screening room, there were already three people sitting inside. Under Ron's introduction, everyone also got to know the film's director, Danny Gray, one of the producers, Duran Wacko, and his son James Wacco.

It's normal for Danny Gray and Duran Waco to be here as directors and producers, but the reason why James Waco is here is because he is one of the voice actors of the film, and he happened to come over today to make up some of the voiceovers. I heard that Ron had taken a fancy to a student band's work as the theme song, and that the band had to come over to see the original film before selling the rights, and he came with his father after finishing the dubbing work.

At the end of the greetings, everyone sat down. Danny Gray beckoned, and the lights in the screening room went out, and the big screen in front of him lit up.

The first time I watched a movie that had not completed all the post-production, not only Xiao Yao, but also the other members of the band felt very novel, and they watched it more and more seriously.

The film is about a talented martial arts teenager named John who has always dreamed of becoming an underground vigilante in the city and fighting all kinds of criminals in the city. By chance, he met several like-minded young friends who were also special professionals, and formed the Junior Volunteer Police Team to fight the criminals in the city.

These teenagers have mechanical geniuses, computer geniuses, driving geniuses, and data analysis masters. After putting it together, not only did they brainstorm the whole outfit of many new and eye-popping strange equipment, including armor, weapons, vehicles, communication tools, etc., but also made a lot of hilarious and funny things.

In the early days of the team, everything went smoothly, and everyone successfully completed several tasks to fight urban criminals. But their different personalities also make them often have some friction in their lives and tasks, and they will also cause some contradictions.

After a failed mission, the people who blamed each other also came to a concentrated outbreak of contradictions, and the whole team fell apart. Everyone began to fight on their own, but they lost the support of their teammates, and the situation of several people who had expertise in one aspect and was very weak in other aspects was a bit miserable, and they were almost caught and killed by those criminals several times.

John, who learned from the pain, first gave up his stubbornness and arrogance, and began to find the former team members one by one to explain their problems openly, and expressed their desire to tolerate each other and work hard. Eventually, thanks to his efforts, the Junior Vigilantes were reunited as a team and managed to send the leader of one of the city's largest criminal organizations to prison.

The theme and context of the whole story are not new, but there are many commendable details in the details. Because it is an animated movie, you can better use your imagination without being too constrained by the real thing, so just those brain-opening equipment are enough to make the audience amazed and feel extremely enjoyable.

At the same time, the portrayal of the inner feelings of the characters in the whole movie is also in place, and the plot is interspersed with laughter, and almost the entire film mobilizes the audience's feelings. The performance of several key plots in the plot is very exciting, the rhythm of the whole film is smooth, and the sensational plots are handled just right.

Xiao Yao couldn't help but compare this film with "Super Marines" in his previous life, and found that in addition to not having a big cuteness, this film seems to be better than "Super Marines" in all aspects, it seems that the so-called impact on the Oscars is really not an empty word.

And in terms of the plot of the plot, the lyrics of "Immortals" are simply tailor-made for it.

"They saywearewhatweare,butwedon\'thavetobe,i\'mbadbehaviorbutidoitinthebestway," first points out the character of the movie character.

"I\'llbethewatcher,oftheeternalflame,i\'llbetheguarddog,ofallyourfeverdreams," is a good expression of the original intention of the teenagers to become vigilantes.

“itrytopicturemewithoutyoubutican\'t,\'causewecouldbeimmortals,justnotforlong,andlivewithmeforevernow,pulltheblackoutcurtainsdown,” It can be said to lovers, but it can also be said to the members of the team, especially when the team is regrouped after the breakup.

“sometimestheonlypayoff,forhavinganyfaith,iswhenit\'stestedagainandagain。 everyday,i\'mstillparingyourpast,tomyfuture,itmightbeyourwound,butthey\'remysutures。 It is a very good portrayal of the hearts of the junior vigilantes.

Therefore, after watching this movie, Xiao Yao knew that "Immortals" was the most suitable theme song for this movie. (To be continued.) )
