Chapter 644: True Lip Sync Identification Results
"Guitarist in the Wheat Field", whose real name is He Chengyun, is a mixer who used to work in a record company before opening a small studio on his own.
Since the studio is relatively small, there is not much daily work.
Most of the time, I take on some outsourced work from some entertainment company, or do post-mixing for independent singer-songwriters.
In the music industry, there are so many musicians that the public can't see.
Eighteen-line singers, singer-songwriters, and bands are like countless carps crossing the river.
Especially since the development of the Internet era, there are many songs that have become popular on the online platform and then become famous overnight.
Therefore, more and more eighteenth-tier singers and singer-songwriters are creating online songs.
However, the ability is not enough, from lyrics and composition, to arranging, recording, to repairing and mixing.
A song starts from scratch and there are too many links to do.
If a person can do all the work and have this ability, he will already be mixed up in the music industry.
Therefore, the studio of "Guitarist in the Wheat Field" often helps some unknown Internet singers and bands to arrange and mix sounds.
Last year, during his live broadcast, he mentioned that a traffic idol was lip-synching at the party, and was chased and scolded by this idol's fan for a month.
In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and made a video to identify the fake singing.
used professional sound editing software Melodyne, in the software, by playing the party video and album CD synchronously, and checking the waveform of the sound, it was proved that this idol was lip-synching from multiple angles.
Under this video, netizens and fans started a war and directly scolded this video on the playback list.
The "Guitarist in the Wheat Field" has a family, has children, and the studio does not have much income, but it turns out that identifying real singing and fake singing on the Internet can attract a lot of traffic.
Although he was scolded very badly, he felt that it didn't matter if he could make money to support his family.
Moreover, the identification of singers falsetto singing is a good entry point for the topic, so they began to make identification videos one after another.
So far, I have made more than 30 videos.
For the sake of popularity, He Chengyun often rubs the heat of the party.
Every time there is a live broadcast of the party, he will open a live broadcast to comment on whether the singer is really singing.
As a result of this, they are often sprayed by fans of celebrities, especially the top fans with explosive combat effectiveness, and are often scolded to the comment area.
However, He Chengyun's mentality is very good.
can only make money to support the family, if you are scolded, you will be scolded, and it is not cold to rub some traffic.
In fact.
He does this kind of video, there are pros and cons.
will make it difficult for him to mix in the music industry.
He is a mixer himself, and if he does a good job, he may be able to get a job as a first-line singer.
However, he identified fake singing on the Internet, and it was nothing to identify real singing, once he identified fake singing, he basically offended the star of fake singing.
However, he is just an UP master with 100,000 fans, and he eats with the heat.
It is impossible for ordinary celebrities to really trouble him, after all, the popularity is not equal.
When popular celebrities look at him more, they are all price drops.
He Chengyun also knows that after doing too much to identify lip-syncing, the road to the mixer industry will become narrower and narrower in the future.
After careful consideration, he decided to stick with the matter.
Although the fan base is not large, the identification of lip-synching will attract many passers-by and netizens to watch the excitement.
Especially when there is a live broadcast party, he can indeed get a lot of heat.
β¦β¦
This time.
Fang Xing sang the theme song of the TV series "Know or Not" on "Happy Weekend".
As a result, he was sprayed by a lot of traffic for lip-to-sing, and he went to He Chengyun's live broadcast room and asked him to identify it.
He Chengyun also made it very clear during the live broadcast.
There is no need to identify real singing and fake singing in recorded programs, because they will be done in the later stage.
Whether the program team repairs the sound or not has nothing to do with the guests.
Unless you can get a direct shot on the spot.
However, recorded programs like "Happy Weekend" are generally not filmed by the audience.
Unless an audience member secretly filmed a clip of singing, there would be no direct video.
"Guitarist in the wheat field" He Chengyun originally thought that this was the end.
As a result, that night, when it was being broadcast live, someone sent a live direct video of Fang Xing singing "Do You Know or Not" to his mailbox.
He Chengyun was still live broadcasting, and he was a little surprised when he saw the direct video in the mailbox:
"A netizen actually sent me a video taken directly on the spot, this video is sure to work, and there will be no legal disputes?"
The barrage in the live broadcast room, I heard that there was a direct video, and it immediately became lively.
[Hurry up and identify, take out your Melodyne, and use the software to tell me if Fang Xing has lip-synching. γ
γWow! It would be so interesting if it proved that Fang Xing sang falsetto. This goods also have today! γ
[You guys, are you fans or fun people? Still looking forward to him being caught in lip-syncing? γ
[Fang Xing has a group of "fans" like you, it is really a blessing for three lives. γ
In addition to the fun people and passers-by, there are many fans of Xiao Lunsheng and Ma Hongcheng in the live broadcast room.
Because Xiao Lunsheng and Ma Hongcheng's "What Year Is This Tonight" has been rumored on the Internet, it was because they were afraid of "Know" that they escaped the gear.
Fans naturally disagree, and now when they see news and comments related to Fang Xing, they have to hold on to it.
Now, Fang Xing has been caught "lip-syncing", this can't nail things to death?
[Anchor, you will identify now, if there is a legal dispute, we will crowdfund to help you fight a lawsuit. γ
[Hurry up and identify, FX this dog thing must be lip-syncing.] γ
[That's right, hurry up and identify, I am disgusted when I see FX, and I must reveal his true colors.] γ
[FX, this dog thing, won't it be a music synthesis before, it's all lip-syncing, right? ] γ
Prior to this, there were occasional controversies about celebrity lip-synching, but it was rarely able to make a hot search.
After all, the entertainment industry has formed a tacit understanding that lip-synching is an objective fact, and entertainment companies will try their best to reduce the heat.
Fans don't want their idols to be said to be lip-synching.
As long as no one is holding on to the lip-synching, the topic can't be argued.
The main reason why Fang Xing's "fake singing" was on the hot search this time was that the fans of "What Year Tonight" were holding on, just to make Fang Xing uncomfortable.
"Guitarist in the wheat field" He Chengyun was a little excited.
Because Fang Xing is the top of the top stream, if he really identifies lip-synching, it will become big news.
Perhaps, he can rely on this appraisal to attract tens of thousands of fans.
As for whether there is a legal dispute over the direct video.
In fact, he was not afraid, because the video was not taken by him, but transmitted to him by netizens.
Even if there is a legal dispute, the most he can do is to delete the identification video.
He Chengyun rubbed his hands and said, "Since everyone wants to know, let's try it."
"First, let's open the software.
"The sound editing software I use is Melodyne, and if you have studied sound correction, you should be familiar with this software.
"Wait a minute, I'll download the video of Fang Xing singing in "Happy Weekend" first, and I'll find that there should be a pure version.
"Okay, found it.
"Now I have two videos in my hand, one is the official video of Xiangguo Video, and the other is a video taken directly by the audience.
"We imported the two videos into the software, extracted the audio tracks, and then removed the instrumental accompaniment and left only the vocals.
"Okay, got it.
"The two waveforms we see now are the vocal audio of the two videos, the top one is official, and the bottom one is the direct shot of the audience.
"Align the two audios and play them in sync to stop for a moment."
On the live stream, Melodyne's software interface is demonstrated.
Two audios are played synchronously, and two sounds appear in the speaker.
At the beginning of the song, it was Lin Yingxue's voice: "Once the flowers bloom and the willows ......"
He Chengyun listened carefully to Lin Yingxue's part, then pressed the pause button and said: "Netizens with good ears should be able to hear that there is a slight difference between the two audios.
In other words, there is a difference between the official version and the direct version of the first paragraph sung by Lin Yingxue.
"Let's continue listening, and the next part is what Fang Xing sings."
He pressed play, and the two pieces of audio continued to play.
"The first palace chief is thin
Taigao couldn't cry
"The brocade book was sent back and looked back
"There is no ...... left to steal"
After broadcasting this paragraph, He Chengyun pressed the pause button again and said:
"This section has a high degree of coincidence, and I haven't been mixing it for many years, so I can't hear the difference."
Subsequently.
He repeated the whole song several times, and in some places he repeated it and listened to it repeatedly.
After listening, he turned on the waveform of the audio:
"Okay, let's take a look at the waveform."
Melodyne's waveform interface is displayed.
Two audios, two waveforms.
He Chengyun said while comparing: "Actually, it is very clear when you see the waveform.
"The part that Lin Yingxue sings, the waveform diagram of the two audios, is slightly different.
"In other words, the official version of Lin Yingxue's audio must have been repaired, and the key tones are all repaired, and several key tones are very accurate.
"Here's a point of view, sound editing is part of post-production, and if you can't fix it, then it's hard for us mixers to find a job.
"This is not to criticize Lin Yingxue, on the contrary, I want to praise Lin Yingxue.
"The audio of the official version is different from the direct version, which shows that Lin Yingxue should be really singing at the scene.
"If netizens who often watch my videos should know, in fact, it is very common for actors to lip-synch.
"Actors who are willing to sing for real, even if their singing is flawed, are worthy of encouragement."
Identification here.
There are more and more barrages in the live broadcast room:
[I don't want to see if Lin Yingxue is lip-syncing, we have to know whether Fang Xing is lip-syncing. γ
[Lin Yingxue really sang, won't Fang Xing still lip-synch? ] γ
[That's not easy to say, I listened to two audios just now, the official version and the direct version, and the sound of Fang Xing overlaps very much, maybe it's really a CD on the spot. γ
He Chengyun continued to identify and pulled the waveform diagram to the part sung by Fang Xing:
"Now there's the awakening part, let's look at the waveform first.
"The two waveforms have a high degree of overlap, and they are basically not repaired, only very subtle differences.
"Let's popularize science first, this subtle difference is not necessarily caused by sound repair, but may also be caused by poor recording effect.
"After all, the version shot directly by the audience, at first glance, was shot with a mobile phone, not a professional recording equipment, and it is normal for the recording effect to be poor.
"Comparing the waveforms of the two versions, it can be said that they are basically the same, so just look at the official version.
"The waveform of the official version of Fang Xing's singing part has a lot of details, and the details of the ups and downs of the waveform are obvious.
"According to my experience, it can be determined that the part of Fang Xing's singing has a very low degree of sound repair in the later stage, and it is basically not repaired.
"So, I personally tend to think that he actually sang on the spot, and he sang really well.
Of course, there must be netizens who will say, is it possible to record the audio in advance and then play the audio live.
"It's a possibility, but judging from the video in hand so far, there's no indication of it.
"Moreover, I have identified many live videos of Fang Xing, and with his singing skills, he can indeed sing to this level.
"Therefore, my personal conclusion is that Fang Xing is really singing at the scene.
"Fang Xing's sound is also very accurate, and occasionally there are a few deviations in individual sounds, but they are all within the normal range.
"I have to popularize science here, even if you are a singer with the ceiling of singing skills, if you sing the same song twice, it will not be exactly the same, and it is normal for there to be slight changes in pitch.
"When a singer sings, every expression of emotion is different, and the waveform of the voice will naturally produce subtle changes.
"In fact, art is reflected in these subtle changes, and if singers sing the same forever, what is the difference between them and robots?
"It's the same with Shen Pujia in the back, the foundation of the professional class is really good, and the scene is really singing.
"Wang Kai is also really singing, but there are some inaccuracies in the direct shooting video, and the official version has been corrected.
Finally, I would like to summarize.
"The song "Know or Not" on "Happy Weekend", the four people were all really singing at the scene.
However, viewers watching TV saw that in the official video, the parts of Lin Yingxue and Wang Kai were revised, while the parts of Fang Xing and Shen Pujia were not revised.
"That's the conclusion, this is my personal appraisal and does not represent the facts.
"If fans and netizens have more evidence, they can provide it to me, and if it turns out that my appraisal conclusion is wrong, I will actively correct it.
"That's all for today's live broadcast, tomorrow, I will take a screenshot of this appraisal video and post it to my appraisal topic."
[Rigorous! I believed. γ
[From the audience's point of view, in fact, Lin Yingxue and Wang Kai have repaired their sounds, can they be said to be lip-syncing? γ
[This can't be said to be lip-syncing, it's normal to edit the sound in the post-production of the recorded program. γ
[If the sound repair of the recorded program is lip-synching, then Xiangguo TV opens such a big filter, can it be said that the star is a fake face? ] γ
γit!γ This angle is tricky, but it makes sense inexplicably. γ
[Yes, the recorded programs are all lip-synching, even if the singing is flawed, it is worth encouraging. Lin Yingxue and Wang Kai are very good. γ
[It's tasteless, Fang Xing didn't lip-synch, which made me happy in vain. γ
[I just clicked in when I saw the title of Fang Xing's lip-synching, but my melon seeds are all set, can you show me this? ] γ
"Be your own people. γ
[Fang Xing is really fortunate to have a group of fun fans like you. γ
[However, there is one thing to say, professional singers are indeed much stronger than non-professionals, and the versions of Lin Yingxue and Wang Kai that have not been repaired are too big a gap with Fang Xing. The official version of the revised sound has only narrowed the gap. γ
