Chapter 180: Dubbing

For "The Lion King", Disney Animation Studios not only stranded "Aladdin", transferred the best hand-drawn artists to the crew, but also sent a team of dozens of people to Africa to collect style.

In particular, lions on loan from the circus come to the studio three to four days a week for the painters to ponder, and the roar of the lion from time to time from the animation department is often chilling.

Because of Ryan's relationship, Disney took a lot of detours when making this animation, and the shapes and small movements of each animal character are reflected in his setting drawings and text descriptions, saving time is equivalent to saving a large amount of budget.

After more than two years of hard work, the animated film is finally nearing completion, and after holding several silent film auditions, production manager Don? Hahn has dubbing work officially on the agenda.

When the sharing agreement was signed, Ryan agreed to dub one of the important roles and sing one of the theme songs, for the sake of future revenue and the box office appeal of the movie, Disney naturally could not let him go, so the young version of Simba will be voiced by him.

It's just that Ryan didn't expect that Disney would find a good partner for himself, and the voice actor of the young Nana turned out to be ......

"Nat, why did you come to Los Angeles?" Looking at Natalie as she walked into the dubbing studio, Ryan couldn't help but scratch her head, "Why didn't you notify me?" ”

"I came to L.A. because Disney asked me to voice Nana." Natalie wrinkled her nose at him, "Ah...... Taylor says you've been busy lately and doesn't need to inform you, and besides, I want to see how surprised you look. ”

"Well, I'm surprised!" Ryan showed a shocked expression very cooperatively, and then looked at Don? Hahn, "Don ......"

It's just that he's not done yet. The other party preemptively said, "Ryan, I informed you." ”

"You informed me?" Ryan pursed his lips, "Why don't I remember?" ”

"Because you're an idiot." Natalie giggled, very happy.

"You may be seated, Nat." Ryan didn't bother to bother with her, beckoned Natalie to sit down in the lounge chair, and asked, "What about Mrs. Shelly?" ”

"At the hotel." Natalie seemed a little dissatisfied, "I'm not a child. ”

"Really?"

Ryan deliberately straightened up. Nearly a head taller than Natalie, Natalie simply skimmed her head and chatted with Mr. Director.

"Nat, I think you should change your role!" Ryan was obviously at a loss for words, and Natalie turned back curiously, "Which one?" ”

"Sangi." Ryan laughed brightly, "I think your voice fits it perfectly, you see ......"

"Really, Ryan?" Natalie's two rows of fine teeth were grinding back and forth. Ryan was pretty sure that if it was in private, she would definitely pounce on herself and bite herself.

"Oh, who's going to compete with me for a role?"

The door to the dubbing room opened just in time. Walk in a chubby black woman, it's Whoopi? Fort Gordon.

Disney took great pains to bring in a heavyweight figure to voice her for this glorious role - Oscar winner Whoopi for Best Supporting Actress? Fort Gordon.

"It's been a long time, Whoopi."

Step into a completely enclosed voice-over studio. Ryan said hello to the chubby black woman, and among the black actors in Hollywood, she was one of the better and more impressive to him. The two have met at the Oscars and are familiar with each other.

"Hi, Ryan." Whoopy? Goldenberg joked, "You're the little prince from the Glory Stone?" I'm going to make you a barbecue dinner today! ”

"Really? Whoopy? Ryan cooperated with a look of fear, "I think about it, is it better to braise or steam, how about making soup?" ”

In fact, dubbing is busy most of the time, except for a few important scenes, the voice actors rarely get together, and there are some seemingly funny dialogues, which are often read out alone.

And then Ryan for Natalie and Whoopy? Gordonberg made an introduction.

The script and lines have long been in the hands of several people, whether Ryan or Whoopi? Gordonberg, who is considered an experienced man, quickly got into the working mood, constantly exchanging views on the interaction between the characters.

"Haha, Banzai, look who sent this to the door~" Whoopy? Goldenberg practiced Sangi's pronunciation.

"Wait, Whoopi." Ryan interrupted her practice, "I think you should change your tone?" ”

"A change of tone?" Goldenberg himself is a highly perceptive actor, and he also feels that the lines he just read do not seem to be suitable for the character of the female jackal.

"Yes." Ryan nodded, laughing uncontrollably, "For example...... In a very underwhelming voice......"

"Hmm...... "Whoopy? Goldenberg was lost in thought.

"Wow~Wow~Wow~ Hey, Banzai, look at it...... Who sent it to the door. Ryan's voice did sound very flat.

"That's right! That's the sound. "Rob as a voice director? Minkov voiced in agreement.

"It sounds really good, I wonder if the kids will drag me out of the house and beat me up after the movie is released...... "Whoopy? Goldenberg's personality is similar to some of the characters she plays, with a lot of humor.

"Sorry, we're late?"

A few more people knocked on the door and walked in, one of them was Rowan? Atkinson, also known as Mr. Bean.

"No ......" the assistant quickly let them in.

Ryan and the others couldn't stop laughing, there was no way, as long as they saw his face, few people could hold it back.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Atkinson, but I'm ...... I can't help but ......."

"It's okay, Ryan, can I call you that? Thanks, actually, most people laugh when they see me, like these guys. He gestured to a few people who had come with him, "laughing from the parking lot outside to the studio, and only stopped before entering the door." ”

As for the role he voiced, it is Shazu, the long-winded bird butler of Mu Shafa.

Soon, Jim? Kunings and Chezi? Marin also walked into the dubbing room, and this time the voice actors were all there.

"Wow, wow, wow, banzai, look, see who's coming~" Whoopy? Goldenberg's tone is very eerie.

"I don't know, Sangi~ What do you think, Ed!"

"Heyhaha, heyhaha, heyhaha~" The voice sounded even more flattened.

"Oh, three intruders!"

"I assure you, it's a misunderstanding, it's just a mistake in the positioning of the route~" Mr. Bean gestured while looking at the birds on the screen.

"Wait, I know you, you're Mushafa's little follower~" Whoopy? Goldenberg's voice grew more and more flattened.

"You can't do anything to me!" Ryan is like a proud lion cub on the screen, arrogantly saying, "You can't do anything to me~"

His voice sounded a little innocent, but he had a natural kingly spirit, although immature, but there was a kind of nobility, "You are just greedy, ugly, stupid hunters......"

"Wait, wait~ I think we can have a lion cub sandwich, what do you think?" Whoopy? Gordonberg's voice has reached a certain level, and it really makes people squirm.

"Poof~"

Finally, someone couldn't help but laugh.

This time, the whole rhythm was disrupted, and Ryan and the others had to stop.

"I'm sorry, I'm ...... I couldn't help it. Natalie bent over and raised her hand, smiling brighter than the sun pendant around her neck.

"Dear Miss, this is a very strict job!" Rowan? Atkinson first put on a stern look, and then laughed out loud, pointing at Whoopy? Goldenberg, I can't even straighten my waist.

The rest of the people, including Ryan, who were still in a normal state when working, were now seduced by Mr. Bean, and they couldn't hold back anymore and laughed out loud almost at the same time.

"It seems that my talent for humor is still very good, maybe the film school should invite me to host the Oscars." Whoopy? Goldenberg shrugged his shoulders in agreement.

Ryan really wants to tell her that you are about to appear on the Oscar hosting stage, but when I think of her outfit in my previous life, I can't help but feel a chill, this one has taken the dressing show to a certain level.

Especially after entering the new century, Nicole? Kidman's glamorous appearance in "Moulin Rouge" has fascinated countless people, so Whoopi? Goldenberg came to a parody show while hosting the Oscars.

I'm sure those who watched that movie will remember, Nicole? The picture of Kidman wearing a costume and swinging down on a swing is really glamorous and moving. Goldenberg moved to the Oscar stage, and when she wore a feather coat and swung from the swing to the stage, it would definitely make countless people spit out wildly, and those with low laughter might even vomit out the overnight meal......

The dubbing work is fairly smooth, and it's not a movie shot, so you don't have to start from scratch even if you make an occasional mistake.

There are too many funny lines and scenes in the movie, and some of the voice actors are still comedians, even if they are professionals like Ryan, laughter still happens all the time.

"Alright, that's all for today, thank you!" After completing a few scenes, Don? Hahn announced the temporary end of the work.

After greeting everyone one by one, Ryan pulled Natalie out of the animation studio.

"What's next, Nat?" He asked.

"I promised Taylor that I would go to see her when the work was done."

Natalie's words made Ryan have a headache, "Can you not go, don't you think it's okay to play with a little ghost?" ”

"Will it?" Natalie blinked, showing a mischievous smile, "If you promise others, you have to do it, isn't that the rule you often tell me, you don't want me to miss the appointment, do you?" (To be continued......)
