Chapter 30: The Effort Behind the Scenes

Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the www.biquge.info of Biqu Pavilion, the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~

Park Jung-hyuk arrived at MBC only to find out that Kim Tae-ho still came earlier than him.

Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and secretly reminded himself to work harder.

There is never a shortage of hard-working people in this world, and no one has any reason to be lazy.

Kim Tae-ho's ability to grow into the greatest PD in Korea in the future is inseparable from this diligence and hard work, in addition to his supreme talent.

If you want to catch up with him and surpass him, you have to work harder.

is like the male protagonist in "Bursting Drummer": if you don't go crazy, you can't live.

The two said hello and began their busy editing work.

Unlike the editing scenes on TV, the work is actually very trivial.

And you have to do it strictly one by one in order to come up with a good finished product.

It's not just sitting in front of the computer, pulling out the film and doing it.

Today's work is a continuation of yesterday's, and it's also the pre-editing process.

Kim Tae-ho threw the tape into the player and said, "Now the job is Transcode, and I want to convert all the RAW formats to ProRes42 so that I can edit them easily." ”

Unlike yesterday, Kim Tae-ho's efficiency is much slower today.

While doing Transcode, he taught Park Jung-hyuk how to operate it.

This is a real opportunity for practical learning, and Park Jung-hyuk has been working hard to learn with the spirit of 12 points.

Because they are all traditional videotapes, the speed of transcoding is very slow, and it cannot be compared with the digital age in the future.

After the transcoding work, it was late at night.

Just like yesterday, the supper for the two is still instant noodles and coffee. But today Park Jung-hyuk paid attention and brought two more sausages.

The money was paid by him, but it wasn't much.

The two-day supper was out of Kim Tae-ho's pocket, but neither of them cared about this.

In Korea, it is normal for seniors to pay the bill and entertain guests. If the juniors do this, they will be scolded.

After eating, Kim Tae-ho said, "Let's go out for a walk, we always stay here, and our minds are all in chaos." ”

The two closed the door to the editing room and slipped all the way to the roof.

On the night of mid-April, the spring breeze came, and the cold wave was especially present.

Standing on the empty roof, the cold wind makes people wake up all of a sudden.

Park Jung-hyuk took the initiative to take out a cigarette, lit it by the two, and lay on the railing of the building, looking at the lights of thousands of homes in the distance.

"How did you come up with the idea of being a PD?" Kim Tae-ho asked.

Park Jung-hyuk smiled bitterly and said in his heart, how do I know?

I've been an MBC employee since I crossed over.

He thought for a while and said, "Brother, you also know that people who come out of our profession are either news agencies or TV stations, but in fact, there are not many directions to choose from. Besides, I didn't expect that doing PD would be so hard before. ”

Kim Tae-ho nodded, empathetic. "yes, I thought it would be nice to work at a TV station. After the results came in, I realized that this was a bottomless pit that consumed people's youth and energy. ”

Park Jung-hyuk laughed to himself. "Luckily, the salary is good."

Kim Tae-ho also laughed unabashedly. "Yes, fortunately, there is a good salary."

A newcomer like Park Jung-hyuk, who has been in the company for less than two months, has a salary of 3 million a month.

As for an AD like Kim Tae-ho for more than three years, his salary has long exceeded five million. That's why I was able to buy a car without having to take public transportation to work.

After a brief silence, Kim Tae-ho finally talks about the theft of his idea. "In MBC, it's like a battlefield. Everything you think is precious, be sure to take care of it. Don't treat it casually until it's time to turn into fruit. It's like a jungle here, everyone wants to climb up, and they don't mind stepping on other people's sweat to do it. Do you understand? ”

Park Jung-hyuk had already learned his lesson, nodded, and said, "Brother, don't worry." People always grow up with setbacks, and such mistakes will not happen to me again in the future. ”

Kim Tae-ho glanced at him and sneered, "Boy, do you think this is the biggest dilemma?" Wait, there are many, many things that will make you tired. ”

These words made Park Jung-hyuk instinctively feel weak, and he was a little afraid of MBC.

How can you listen to him, as if this is the tiger's den in Longtan.

Seeing that Park Jung-hyuk was not lightly frightened, Kim Tae-ho patted him on the shoulder. "Let's go, go back. I'm trying to get Syncaudio and Organize right tonight, and I'll be able to start editing tomorrow. ”

Because this is a variety show, the recording is done with a camera, so there is basically no situation where the sound and picture are out of sync.

In this way, the remaining two programs are completed using this night.

On the third day, Park Jung-hyuk finally arrived earlier than Kim Tae-ho.

He sat alone in the editing room and watched all the footage first.

It's just that the more he looks, the more it hurts.

All the Mao films (unedited films) add up to about 500 minutes, but based on his experience alone, the parts that can be taken out and made up into the essence are actually less than 20 minutes.

This shows how difficult it was to record this first issue.

Thinking back to the situation on the set that day, everyone did spend most of their time immersed in hard work.

As a result, Liu Zaishi worked hard to make the effect, but received very little response.

Zheng Hengdun and Lu Hongzhe have worked hard to echo, but they are still very immature after all, and they can't meet too high requirements.

As for Biao Ronghao and Li Zheng, one speaks outdated language effects, and the other is simply invisible, which is really not very helpful.

When Kim Tae-ho came, he saw that Park Jung-hyuk had arrived, and he praised this junior in his heart.

Seeing that he was looking at the footage, he asked, "How do you feel?" ”

Park Jung-hyuk leaned back in his chair and tugged at his hair in distress. "Brother, no. I took a cursory look and found that there was so little content available that it couldn't make up for 90 minutes. ”

Kim Tae-ho smiled and asked, "Who told you that the duration is ninety minutes?" It would be great if it had that long airtime. ”

"Huh? Not ninety minutes? Park Jung-hyuk was embarrassed and blushed rarely.

He said it according to the experience of later generations, because variety shows at that time were basically so long.

Kim Tae-ho squeezed him away, sat down and said, "The TV station only gave us less than forty minutes to see the effect." If it's not good, the show could be stopped at any time. ”

Park Jung-hyuk watched "Unplanned Challenge" many years ago in his previous life, and now he can't remember how long this show was when it first started.

However, he still knows the fact that "Unplanned Challenge" was not broadcast smoothly and was almost stopped.

"Fortunately, it was only given forty minutes, otherwise how to put together an episode of the show, it would be enough for the two of us to worry about gray hair." Park Jung-hyuk was overjoyed.

"Is it that miserable?" Kim Tae Ho-an sat down and began to look at the material.

As a result, when he watched it again, his expression was the same as Park Jung-hyuk's.

Well, although the editing work is tough, it has to be done.

The two officially started to edit the first issue of "Infinite Challenge" in history.

The interactive part at the beginning, that is, the part where Liu Jae-seok and several MCs appeared. According to Park Jung-hyuk's idea, there should be more dialogue between several people.

Because in his opinion, there are a lot of funny parts in this part.

And the style of "Infinite Challenge" is also like this later, several MCs often talk nonsense for one or two hours, and even the parents are short.

But because of this, "Infinite Challenge" has increased the attribute of family affection outside the scope of the show, which invisibly allows several members to have cohesion.

However, for his idea, Kim Tae-ho chose to accept it to a limited extent.

According to Kim Tae-ho, the audience may not like this kind of content very much and will get bored.

So pick a part of it and use it as a pilot to see how the audience reacts.

In this regard, Park Jung-hyuk did not insist on his own opinion, but let Kim Tae-ho do it.

Before seeing concrete results, no matter how much he says, it is all rootless duckweed, and it cannot affect the thinking of others.

When Kim Tae-ho is editing, he still uses the same technique as the traditional one.

The precedent-setting and colorful subtitle captions of "Infinite Challenge" also do not appear.

Park Jung-hyuk didn't mention this either, but watched it seriously as a learner.

"Unconstrained Challenge" has a single content and is not rich enough. Take out the subtitles of the supreme weapon now, it's a bit overkill, and you lose the opportunity to win with one move.

Good things should be used at the right time, and Park Jung-hyuk already knows this.

After another busy night, the two finally edited the show.

checked from beginning to end and found that there were no omissions, and the two were both relieved and helpless.

Peace of mind is that there are no mistakes in the edited film, and there will be no playback accidents.

Unfortunately, there are not many funny content in it, and it is very old-fashioned, and there is no attraction at all.

However, neither of them is the responsible PD of this show, and they have no right to realize their ideas.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Kim Tae-ho and Park Jung-hyuk handed over the edited film to Kwon Seok.

After reading it, this responsible PD is very satisfied. even asserted that this show would definitely be popular.

Looking at Kwon Seok's sworn appearance, Park Jung-hyuk finally understood. How big is the talent gap between people?

Anyway, he and Kim Tae-ho's work was done, and they worked hard for three nights in a row, but they made works that could not satisfy them, which is the helplessness of reality.

The efforts behind it are full of sweat, but they may not be able to turn into fruitful fruits.

This is a true portrayal of the profession of PD.

With such feelings, Park Jung-hyuk hid under the covers and slept in a daze.

He had to do his best to reverse the jet lag, because the recording of the second episode was just around the corner.
