Actually I just want to act

Chapter 300 Voice Artist

Hu Lu smiled: "For the soundtrack, it's nothing to go over the budget."

Fang Jiming nodded, and then said, "Teacher, let's continue editing."

"it is good!"

……

In this way, for eight days in a row, the two of them stayed in the editing room. If Fang Jiming hadn't been able to skip class, they would have finished editing the 10-minute movie long ago.After all, there are not many materials that can be used, and there are only some changes in close-ups, close-ups, middle shots and long-range shots.The scene is fixed, and most of the time it is shot in a fixed position.Of course, there are also some moving shots, which were taken several times.

The main reason is that the cameraman is inexperienced and can't deal with the shake of this kind of lens.

This time, there is no stable gimbal. If there is no slide rail, it really depends on the hand.Whether it is stable or not is a question of the experience of the cameraman.

There is no way, the two photographers who are still apprentices have wasted a lot of film.In the end, Fang Jiming could only forgive them and let them take good shots.Fortunately, there are not too many mobile cameras in hand, otherwise it would be really difficult.

Eight days later, Fang Jiming heaved a sigh of relief holding the first-cut movie.

Hu Lu also seems to be quite tired, but he is very energetic: "This is definitely a good movie. If it is released, the box office should not be bad!" This is a film worker's evaluation, which is very objective.In fact, the editor knows best how much a movie can earn at the box office.Because when editing, I have already roughly understood the direction of the plot.

As for film workers, as long as they look at a movie objectively, they will generally have an idea of ​​how well-known it is and how much it has sold at the box office.

Fang Jiming said, "That's right, the soundtrack is missing now."

First cuts aren't easy, it's true.

During these eight days, Hu Lu read the script no less than [-] times and read all the materials no less than five times until he completely absorbed all the information.According to Hu Lu himself, he has memorized Fang Jiming and his favorite angles and shots, the special moments of these angles and shots, and the special lines in the dialogue.

In the process of film editing, the two often encounter disagreements.Hu Lu often expresses his views to Fang Jiming, but he still has to try according to Fang Jiming's requirements.The two have repeatedly revised a scene or a paragraph together countless times. According to Hu Lu's own words, this is "a moment to test the editor's patience, flexibility and sense of humor."

As for re-cutting, special effects, soundtrack and narration should be added.

The recut of "The Man From Earth" has no special effects and no narration, at most subtitles and descriptions are added.As for the soundtrack, Fang Jiming had to compose the soundtrack.

"Teacher, I'm going to see a soundtrack artist. If all goes well, I can re-cut it in ten days or so." Fang Jiming smiled.

Hu Lu sighed, and said, "Why don't you hurry, I'm getting old, I want to rest for a few more days..."

Fang Jiming pretended not to hear: "Thank you, teacher."

Hu Lu looked at the back of Fang Jiming leaving with the copy, and scolded with a smile: "This kid..."

In Yanjing, in a western restaurant, a man in a plaid shirt was a little embarrassed.

"Sorry, I'm late."

The person who came was Fang Jiming who just got the copy.

"You are Cai Yuze?"

The man got up quickly and held Fang Jiming's outstretched hand together: "You are Fang Dong? This..."

"Too young, right? Many people say that, and you're not the first." Fang Jiming smiled, "What would you like to drink?"

Only then did Cai Yuze heave a sigh of relief. He was really afraid of being an old man in the industry, so he seemed to be full of confidence now. "I'll have a latte."

Fang Jiming asked the waiter to come over and ordered two glasses of latte.

"I think my secretary has already talked to you. I just finished filming a movie and I need a soundtrack artist to do the soundtrack." Fang Jiming said straight to the point, he really didn't have much time to waste.

Cai Yuze nodded. He is also a newcomer who has just debuted. He is just a budding figure in the industry, far from well-known.Being favored by "Oriental DreamWorks" is actually more of Fang Jiming's decision.Fang Jiming decided to choose Cai Yuze after listening to the masterpieces of several composers.Because in Cai Yuze's previous movie, the soundtrack happened to be one that Fang Jiming had heard and watched.I thought the soundtrack and the movie matched well, so I found him.

Cai Yuze thought it was such a powerful film and television company, but because he really had no work to do, he agreed to take a look.

So, there is today's meeting.

"Fang Dong, what do you mean, you want me to be the soundtrack composer?"

Cai Yuze is also very straightforward.

"That's right, I've seen your works, and I have a strong feeling in the movie, so I found you." Fang Jiming said, "I don't need you to do too much to find you this time, because I have already written the basic soundtrack. For the rest, you have to check for omissions and make up for the vacancies."

Cai Yuze frowned: "Since you don't trust me, why are you looking for me?"

Fang Jiming saw that he wanted to get up and leave, and suddenly said: "Who is the composer of "Flying Higher"?"

"Qiao Zian's "Flying Higher"?"

The soundtrack circle can be regarded as half of the music circle. Of course, I know Qiao Zian, who has become popular recently, and the song "Fly Higher".

Cai Yuze's pupils shrank: "Fang Jiming, is it you...Fang Dong?"

"Yes, it's me. Looking at you, you seem surprised?"

Fang Jiming said with a smile, "I'm a freshman at Nortel, so it's normal to write songs. Like Huaqing, there's a band group, so I'll be on the sidelines. Why can't I write songs?"

Having said that, Cai Yuze was a little interested: "So Fang Dong, you set up a film and television company and want to make movies?"

"To be precise, it has already been filmed, even the first cut. In this way, I will show you the script. If you are interested, we will cooperate. If you are not interested, we will treat it as a friend, and we will cooperate again when we have the opportunity." Fang Mingming did not force it. These days, there are not many people who know how to arrange music, but there are people who are willing to spend money to do it.

"Let me see."

Cai Yuze said.

Fang Jiming didn't say anything else, and gave him the prepared script.

At this time, the coffee was served, Cai Yuze didn't have time to drink it, but Fang Zhiming poured several spoonfuls of sugar, which still felt bitter.When Fang Jiming used to be a programmer, although he also drank coffee to refresh himself, he still had to complain that the coffee was always so bitter, as if adding sugar was useless.

While drinking coffee, Fang Jiming had almost finished it, and Cai Yuze only hurriedly read the script.

"This movie...is finished?" Cai Yuze was a little shocked.

"Well, the filming is over." Fang Jiming said, "Do you want to join us as a dubbing artist?"

Cai Yuze thought about it carefully, and then said, "I'm too shy to refuse. But I want to see how much money you can give me?"
