Chapter 490: Post-production

Jiang Xia and Zhao Yongjiang had dinner and went home separately. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

didn't say much, Zhao Yongjiang mentioned that he might want to change jobs, Jiang Xia routinely gave a piece of advice, and did not force him to stay.

For those who want to go, it's useless to say more.

Counting Zhao Yongjiang, the studio has resigned three people, Jiang Xia didn't say anything about retaining at all, just leave if you want, everyone has their own way to go, Jiang Xia can't make choices for others.

Zhao Yongjiang's choice to be a TV host is his own choice, Jiang Xia is not optimistic about him going to the TV station, as he said, when he goes to the TV station, the competitors are those professionals, as far as Zhao Yongjiang, a non-professional, competes, Jiang Xia is not optimistic at all.

Don't look at the talk show that Zhao Yongjiang has talked about for a few years, but in terms of professional quality, on-the-spot response or something, according to the professional background, it is far behind.

Jiang Xia gave Zhao Yongjiang advice, but whether he could listen to it or not, then another story. The news I got from Shen Fatzi was that Zhao Yongjiang had passed the interview and had to go to work.

Back home, Gong Shan had already arrived home and was watching a TV series on the sofa.

"Who did you go to dinner with?" Gong Shan asked when he saw him coming back.

"Skinny. Jiangxia said.

"Why did he ask you to eat?

"It's okay, haven't seen me for a long time, come and talk to me about life. Jiangxia said.

"Nonsense. Gong Shan said speechlessly.

Jiang Xia said with a smile: "I really talked about life, Shen Fat Man resigned and left, he had a good enough relationship with the fat man, and he felt uncomfortable." With a lot of emotion, come to talk to me. That's it. ”

"So, when will your album be released in the collector's edition?" asked Gong Shan, changing the subject.

"The post-production hasn't started yet, and when all the post-production is completed, how can it take a while, plus printing, it's faster than a month. And I can't do it all, I have to edit the movie, do the post-production of the movie, if I don't rush the New Year's file, there is only one National Day file that is more suitable, and if I want to catch the National Day file, I have to hurry. Jiang Xia snapped his fingers and said.

"Come on, I can't help much. Gong Shan shrugged.

Jiang Xia said: "By the way, it's July, and I still have to think about how to write a novel, there are a lot of things." ”

"It's hard to get busy. Gong Shan said with a smile.

Jiang Xia stretched his waist and said, "Yes, I was busy flying in June, and it is estimated that it will be about the same next month." It's been half a year, and I haven't had a good rest for two days. ”

"You're busy next month, aren't you idle again?" Gong Shan said.

"I'm not idle, I have to prepare an album for you. Jiangxia said.

"yes, it's okay, it's busy. Gongshan said.

Jiang Xia raised his eyebrows, just like his opinion, the path he chose, no matter what, he had to go by himself.

There are two people in the whole family, Jiang Xia and Gong Shan, and if the paparazzi knew, they would definitely make up a lot of novel-like stories, but the two of them were at home, very calm, and nothing happened.

The next day, Gong Shan went out to work, and Jiang Xia went to the studio.

Zhao Yongjiang is also there, he continues to go to work every day as if he is nothing, including everyone in his team, the same, the crew members who commute to and from work on time every day and go to Xiangjiang with Jiang Xia, they don't know that these colleagues are about to jump ship and leave.

After Jiang Xia arrived at the studio, he directly asked people to bring him the things he had filmed these days, and he went directly into a studio.

In order to better edit the movie, Jiang Xia invited a professional editor from the movie channel to come over, and the previous Lu Xiaofeng was cut out by him.

The two of them hid directly in the studio and began to edit the film according to the footage.

Jiang Xia, as a director, naturally followed the whole process, and without him by his side, the editor didn't know how to cut it at all. When he cut Lu Xiaofeng, he followed, and later there was a storyboard script or something, and he had plenty of time. Now that he was dragged over by Jiang Xia, he hadn't seen any scripts and storyboards at all, so he asked him to edit when he came up, and without Jiang Xia, it was impossible.

"Director Jiang, how to cut?"

Jiang Xia said: "I said, you come and edit, I know which shots are needed, but I can't edit, I need a skilled hand to help." ”

"I see, you said scissors, I'll do it, right?"

"Yes, that's what it means. Jiang Xia smiled, "Let's number it first, just follow your habits." ”

"Hmm. ”

When editing movie shots, editors have to select suitable shots from countless shots, such as the movie "Star Wish", there are more than 1,000 shots, and there are only dozens of them that are really used.

In order to facilitate the editing work, the editor will generally number all the shots, and then select them according to the shot number, which is for convenience.

Each editor has a different numbering habit, although Jiang Xia is the director assisting in editing, but it can only be numbered according to the habits of the chief editor.

The editing work is going very smoothly, Jiang Xia has seen the finished film and copied it, how smooth the editing process is, and which shot is needed, it doesn't need to be compared at all, so it can be used for use.

Generally, when editing a movie, directors will think about what kind of editing techniques to use, and the use of each shot needs to be carefully considered, and the editing work is very slow. This is where there are rough and fine cuts, as well as final cuts. If the director is not involved in the editing work, but has a different view on the editing, he will also make a director's cut by himself.

The film version edited by the director will be much longer than the final cut version edited by the editor. The directors cherish the shots they shoot very much, and they are reluctant to give up this and that, and the time is long, which can better reflect the lens language of the directors.

Jiang Xia doesn't have to think about so many things, he has seen the finished movie, and what he needs to do is to splice together one shot after another when editing.

Editing is not the same for film and digital film.

Lu Xiaofeng's kind of digital film, all the editing work is done on a digital computer, and it is processed with new digital software. "Star Wish" is a film movie, a more traditional film that needs to be shown on the big screen, the editing object is a roll of film, and the editing method is to use scissors and glue to cut out the required shots with scissors and glue and glue them. That's why editing is called cutting.

This process is a very meticulous job, Jiang Xia thinks that he can't do it, and the studio doesn't have professionals to do this, so he invited an acquaintance from the movie channel to help.

"This shot feels a little better with a thirty-six than a thirty-five. ”

"I still think that the 35th is better, and the 36th has not done a little bit of the details. ”

"The overall coordination of the 35th is a bit problematic, and the coordination of the 36th is better. ”

"The thirty-fifth and the forty-third are connected a little more smoothly. ”

"Thirty-six and forty-seven are also quite smooth. ”

In the studio, Jiang Xia and the editor were discussing the choice of shots. Jiang Xia made a movie, the same shot was backed up, and some shots were shot with several backups, all of which met Jiang Xia's requirements.

Jiang Xia's daily work is to come to the studio to edit movies with editors, and the work instructed by others in Gongshan Studio is to produce ten music videos, and he doesn't need to stare at this aspect personally. Xu Feizai, who has experience in making MVs for Gongshan, plus the whole team filmed together, they all know very well what finished products Jiangxia needs.

Both sides are editing work, but in comparison, the editing work on the MV side is a little slower, because it is much more difficult to add some special effects shots, and it is much more difficult to cut out the picture for special effects than pure editing.

For two weeks, Jiang Xia and the editor were busy day and night, and finally cut it into a 90-minute film.

In the viewing room, after Jiang Xia watched it smoothly, he immediately decided on this version.

After thanking the editor and sending a large amount of money, Jiang Xia began post-production with the studio team.

The first is dubbing, after getting the dubbing, you can do accompaniment and so on, not one audio track, and finally the synthesis is an audio track, but at the beginning of post-production, it was done separately.

For dubbing work, Jiang Xia asked Xu Fei to take someone to do it, and Jiang Xia himself went to do BGM.

There is a band in the studio, which is much more convenient than the original in producing music, and directly pulls the band in, Jiang Xia gives them the music they need, and let them get a complete out.

Explaining the work, Jiang Xia breathed a sigh of relief, but also curious, why hasn't Zhao Yongjiang resigned yet?

According to Shen Fatzi, in May, Zhao Yongjiang contacted the next family, and now it is almost August, and he has not resigned yet?

Jiang Xia couldn't figure it out, but he didn't ask him, although the stop of "Nonsense" really made the people in the studio strange for a while, but Jiang Xia didn't say anything, and they didn't ask.

After You Fangfei left, the top leader of the studio was already Jiang Xia, Gong Shan had always been careless, but now he came to Jiang Xia to deal with some things, and some basic documents, including an employee's leave form, had to be signed by Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia was busy editing movies before, and just found time to do some daily signing work, but now he is relaxed and can finally settle down with the work of the studio. However, before working on the main work, Jiang Xia also needed to check the post-production of the MV.

After Shen Fatzi left, another person came up to the special effects post-production team, and he is currently presiding over the production of the MV post-production.

"Director Jiang, there is only one dragon fist and one train that have not yet been made, and the rest have been made, you can take a look at it first. ”

"Okay, I'll take a look. ”

Jiang Xia was not polite at all, he watched it directly, nodding his head while watching, it was worthy of spending a lot of money to make it, it was indeed better than the original MV, Jiang Xia took a heavy look at "General".

The MV of the eleven songs, the ones that need special effects the most, are "Blue Storm" and "General", "Blue Storm" has been produced a long time ago, but "General" has just been filmed not long ago, what can be made, he is really curious.

promised Chu Zhijun to let him film "The General", Chu Zhijun really came, and he didn't ask for any fees, just a cameo.

The special effects are mainly the special effects of the chess pieces when playing chess, and there are also special effects behind them, which are very dazzling.

Jiang Xia nodded and said, "Yes, very good." ”

"As long as you're satisfied. ”

"Quite satisfied. Jiang Xia said with a smile, "I'll give you bonuses when I go back, continue to work hard, and hurry up and make it." ”

After the order, Jiang Xia took a few cooperation invitations from Feng Lin, all of which were with Gong Shan.

"What are you doing for me?" Jiang Xia asked.

"It turned out that it was all for Sister Fang Fei, she checked it, Sister Fang Fei handed over the work to you, of course you did it. Feng Lin pushed three, five or six.

Jiang Xia said speechlessly: "Okay, let me take a look, I haven't done the agent's job." ”

"Come on. Feng Lin said.

Jiang Xia waved his hand and drove Feng Lin out, he sat in the office, looking at a few cooperation invitations, which were basically business cooperation. If you invite Gong Shan to participate in the ribbon cutting, the appearance fee is 300,000 yuan, and you only need to stand on the platform for five minutes. If Gong Shan is invited to perform a show, the appearance fee is 200,000 yuan. There are those who ask Gongshan to shoot advertisements, three million a year.

Flipping through it at will, Jiang Xia threw a few contracts aside, not knowing how to choose, he had never done the work of an agent, and he didn't know how to choose a good cooperation.

After thinking about it, he called Xiao Xiaoxiao. Xiao Xiaoxiao is half of You Fangfei's apprentice, she has learned a lot from You Fangfei, and she has been in the agent circle for a few years, so she should know something.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Xiaoxiao said that she didn't know, business cooperation has always been personally checked by You Fangfei, and the work she did was to arrange some trips to Gongshan, and after arriving at the place, communicate with people, and negotiate specific cooperation, You Fangfei went, and she didn't take over.

When Jiang Xia heard this, he had to do it, so let's do it myself.

Before he could come up with a clue, Xu Fei knocked on the door and came in.

"Hmm, Xu Fei, what's the matter?" Jiang Xia asked. He saw that Xu Fei was a little entangled, and he was very curious.

Xu Fei opened his mouth and said, "Jiang Xia, there is something I want to tell you. ”

"What's the matter?" Jiang Xia asked.

"In September, I was probably going to quit my job. Xu Fei said.

"Why?" Jiang Xia said in amazement, "What did you do in the studio?"

"No, I felt that my professional skills were still a little behind, so I took a refresher course to learn the directing course more systematically. The study process had to be full-time, and I couldn't study at the same time, so I had to quit. Xu Fei said.

"Where is the director training class?" Jiang Xia asked.

Xu Fei said: "My alma mater, the film academy, is aimed at young directors. Not long ago, my mentor contacted me, and I also realized that I had some skills in the past two years, and I also wanted to learn it, but I happened to have such an opportunity, so I ......"

"I understand. Jiang Xia waved his hand and said, "If you want to go, you can go." ”

"Whew, thank you very much. Xu Fei breathed a sigh of relief. She was obviously afraid that Jiang Xia would stop her, the employees all had contracts with the studio, and if Jiang Xia did not agree to her resignation, it would be really troublesome.

Waiting for Xu Fei to fly out, Jiang Xia tapped his fingers on the tabletop and sighed: "The fourth, will there be a fifth?" )
