Chapter 29: Dubbing Practice
Although the people here couldn't believe it, they had already understood in advance before they came, and Teacher Ma Tuan was unexpectedly young, so they were just surprised and returned to normal. According to the original itinerary, the next step is to go directly to the company.
After a while of driving, I finally arrived at the location of Kyoto Animation Productions, which is not a bustling place nearby, and the workplace of Kyoto Animation Company does not look anything special, it is a very ordinary multi-story building, and there is no appearance comparable to its reputation.
Entering the company, because it's a Sunday, no one is working, and there are a bunch of line drawings on the desk, original drawings that are about to be colored, and many things that you have never seen before, after all, this is the first time you have been in an animation production company, and I only saw a little introduction to the animation production process on the video.
I met with Superintendent Nagai in the office, and at the same time, there was a person inside who made Yumi a little concerned.
Noto Mamiko was also taken aback when she saw Yumi for the first time, she has been a voice actor for more than ten years, and it is the first time she has seen a person with such a similar voice, although it is just that the voice is almost completely similar, and there are many differences. Noto Mamiko's own voice is very distinctive, cold and mature, and graceful is a little more immature in line with her age. Listening carefully can still be clearly distinguished.
"Hello Ma Tuan-sensei!"
Noto Mamiko inexplicably has a good impression of this young and beautiful teacher, who is also similar to herself.
"Hello, Noto-sensei."
Yumi hurriedly took off her sunglasses and shook the outstretched hand of Mamiko Noto.
"Teacher Ma Tuan is really young."
"Where, Where, ......"
It's really hard for Yuyu to reveal her true age, after all, she is a little too young.
Under the leadership of the staff, Mamiko Noto and Yumi are ready to go to the recording studio for some simple exercises, after all, it is impossible to dub a character's voice without more preparation for a person who has never dubbed a person who has never dubbed directly.
Mamiko Noto took the script book, and the screen in front of her was showing the plot that was about to be dubbed.
"First of all, memorize the lines. Be optimistic about the lip shape of the characters on the screen, and look at it yourself, we must lip sync it. There are descriptions of the feelings and inner activities of the words in the line book, which are all temporary additions......"
Noto Mamiko carefully explained each note in detail, and there was no tenderness at the beginning of the meeting at work, and the work attitude was very serious, and it is estimated that this is also the purpose of the Nagai superintendent asking Noto Mamiko to guide the beautiful newcomer.
But at first, Meimei was a little nervous, either forgetting the lines, or the feelings were not in place. But after calming down, I finally barely met the expected requirements of Noto Mamiko, but it was still a little far away.
During the lunch break, Superintendent Nagai took Yumi and Noto Mamiko to a nearby Western restaurant for lunch, and at this time, Asamiko did not have the serious attitude she had at work, and a gentle smile was always on her face.
At lunch, the words of the director of Nagai made the graceful moment a little stunned, this very important song of the anime also needs to be gracefully participated, today is a dubbing practice, and the next day is an advance rehearsal of the song that sets off the touching atmosphere of "Unheard Flower Name" to the extreme.
Yumi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the song "Secretbase" was one of her favorite anime songs in her previous life, and she remembered every lyric and tone by heart, because this song brought her so much emotion.
……
The afternoon practice was more arduous, but it was more rewarding, and at last he barely met the standard that Inspector Nagai had in mind.
After all, they are a commercial company, and they use a role that is not very important to exchange for the now popular Ma Tuan teacher to join, this kind of thing that is obviously making a lot of money no animation company will refuse, although there are some flaws......
It's a graceful talent, and the problem with dubbing is not big anymore, and when it comes to singing, graceful has some confidence.
"That's it, Teacher Ma Tuan and Supervisor Nagai have been taken care of today."
Outside the recording room, Mamiko Noto prepares to leave at the end of the day's work.
"Where, where, thanks to Mr. Noto today, Mr. Ma Tuan will improve so quickly, it has completely exceeded my expectations,"
Supervisor Nagai is also happy today.,After all, the flaws in the dubbing of Mr. Ma Tuan have been made up for a lot.,If the most canny singing can also reach the level of dubbing.,It's perfect.。
"I'm also looking forward to the singing voice of the Ma Tuan teacher, today's Ma Tuan teacher is too surprising to me, the voice is changeable, and the vocal range is also very wide, I am sure that the Ma Tuan teacher has no problem singing."
Noto Mamiko smiled, when I was practicing dubbing today, I changed several types of roles, and the plot of the Matuan teacher did not take the initiative to change the voice of this type of character without her reminder, and the cut is still very good, if it is not very skilled, Noto Mamiko thinks that this Matuan teacher has done voice actor training before.
"It's over...... Actually, I used to dream of voice actors, so I secretly bought some materials and practiced by myself for a while......"
What Yumi said is also true, after she found out that her voice was particularly similar to that of Noto Mamiko a while ago, she bought some basic equipment and played with the characters that Noto Mamiko had matched......
"That's great, but I'm kind of looking forward to what it will be like for Matuan-sensei and Noto-sensei to sing nursery rhymes together......"
After saying that, Supervisor Nagai couldn't help laughing, he and Noto Mamiko have cooperated a few times, and the two sides are relatively familiar, and although Noto Mamiko has a very distinctive voice, he also made some jokes.
On a radio program, Mamiko Noto was asked to sing a nursery rhyme, and I thought that singing a nursery rhyme with Mamiko Noto's healing voice would be very healing, but the result was the opposite...... After the original healing nursery rhyme turned into a cursed song similar to a horror image, which greatly shocked the audience, one of the programs "Let Noto Sing Nursery Rhymes" was born. When Supervisor Nagai said this, it made Mamiko Noto laugh and couldn't stand it.
"Yes! If Mr. Ma Tuan can be on my show one day, I guess the impact will be terrifying......"
"yes, don't really be a horror show when the time comes......"
……
The three of them then chatted for a while, and after Yumi and Noto Miko exchanged practice methods with each other, Noto Mamiko left. Yumi was also sent to a nearby hotel for rest.
Recalling what happened today, Grace seems to have something sprouting in her heart, but it still seems to be in the budding form, and she can't see what she will become after the most beautiful, maybe one day, Grace will be able to find the life she wants...... Maybe now is the way you want to live...... To be free, to be happy, to be able to enjoy it all more......
