Chapter 222 Qiao Feng Carrying the Audio, On the Importance of Martial Arts BGM

"Come on, get ready!"

This is a very important scene in the whole drama, and it can also be said to be the key to attracting people to watch this drama!

That's the beginning of the first episode!
Although this version did not film Duan Yu first according to the original work, but... the beggar gang went deep into the Xixia military camp, assassinated Marshal Helian Tieshu, and then Qiao Feng dared to come to the rescue!

but……

Just this paragraph is enough to make people have great interest in this drama!

Because in the first episode, there is the most exciting and longest fighting scene in the whole show!

A group of members of the beggar gang failed to assassinate Helian Tieshu, and then were chased out of the city. Qiao Feng came to the rescue. This period lasted for about 15 minutes, of which there were 10 minutes of actual fighting, and these 10 minutes of fighting , has never stopped, it is definitely a visual feast!
More than [-] horses are ready, because with the endorsement of Luan Le, the province, props and the like are very convenient to use!
It's like these twenty or so horses were all borrowed by Luan Liao from the surrounding pastures. They don't need to travel around to think about these, they can get them as long as they ask.

And Luan just happened to have time to come to the set today.

Of course, this is no longer a film and television base, but a depression in Hongwangou!

Zhou You led the actors of Qiao Feng and Murong Fu, Huang Jin and Zhang Zhi, as well as the actors of the Four Great Villains, everyone in the Beggar Gang, and dozens of other performers!

At this time in the col, Zhou You is explaining the station position to everyone.

"Tsk, the teacher started filming this week, it's very different from usual!"

Although she only had contact with Zhou You a few times, Zhou You usually gave her the impression that he was gentle and refined, and he didn't talk too much, but at this time Zhou You had a serious face, even a bit calm and pretentious.

People like Huang Jin, Zhang Zhi, and even the veteran actors who played the role of Deputy Gang Leader Ma and others, all listened obediently in front of Zhou You.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "That's not true. If Director Zhou hadn't acted like this, how could he have produced high-quality works!"

In fact, the two don't have a deep understanding of martial arts, but they have read "Dragon and Ba Bu", but they haven't finished it. As for "Six-fingered Qin Demon", they have also seen it, so they can only say this way of expression , the appeal to young people seems to be quite large, especially for male audiences.

Let’s put it this way, whether it’s movies, TV dramas, or variety shows, the audience seems to be mostly women. Therefore, when everyone produces works, they will subconsciously consider the female audience. As for men, it doesn’t seem to be very important, but you must know Well, the consumption power of men is actually not low at all, especially young boys, but men are more rational!
To put it bluntly, women's money is easy to make, but if you want to make money from men, you have to use your brains, or you have to really produce something of quality.

And a lot of capital is adhering to the idea that if you can make money easily, why make it more difficult for yourself, so the current ratio of male to female audience is almost 2:8.

To put it bluntly, men are generally chasing dramas, and women are chasing people!

Whether it is easy to create a good drama or to create a star, you can tell with your toes!
"Camera, you two camera positions follow them, then pass this line, jump into the main position, and take a close-up, understand?"

"it is good!"

With Zhou You's arrangement in place, the idlers had already left the stage, and when Zhou You gave an order, first the people on the left started to fight, then the people on the right, and finally the three jumped into the host position, zooming in for a close-up!
It's not that Luan has never watched filming, but most of what she went to watch in the past were modern urban dramas!

The biggest feature of modern urban TV dramas is the lines!

That is to say, the people in the shot are basically speaking their lines. In this kind of shot, no one speaks, and they are all fighting. This is the first time she has seen it!

only……

Why do you look so awkward!

Wen Qing said from the side: "Martial arts movies need post-production, at least editing is required to watch. If you watch it live, it's basically not worth watching, and you even think it's quite a joke!"

In general urban dramas, there are two most important points, one is the lines, and the other is the acting skills!

But martial arts films are different. According to Zhou You, fighting is the most important thing, followed by acting skills, followed by lines. To put it bluntly, different genres naturally have different focuses.

It's like in a horror movie, the most important thing is the environment layout and shooting techniques, then the acting skills, and the lines... Sometimes the lines are not needed for the scariest part.

Chatting here, Zhou You has already asked people to prepare.

This is a filming of Flying on the Grass. In the plot, after the assassination of Deputy Gang Leader Ma and others failed, they were chased out by the pursuers. run!

This part of the filming also has no lines!

The track was arranged early on. Following Zhou You's hand gestures, the people on horseback took a test run first, and this shot was also to be filmed, after all, editing was needed!

Then the two of Diao Weiya started flying on the grass!

Although they have already trained early, but because the two actors are not in their early 20s, but around 40 years old, when hanging Wia, Mr. Wang accidentally crossed over!
"No, it's a bit top-heavy!"

Then there were constant attempts, and finally, the chase scene of Flying on the Grass was filmed.

Seeing this scene, Luan Liao couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect it would take more than two hours to shoot with just a few shots!"

Wen Qing said: "It's fast, mainly because everyone who participated in the filming has already trained for a week or two in advance. Wia is something that ordinary people can't handle. In addition, some people may be afraid of heights. This is all necessary. Overcome!"

Just like not everyone can bungee jump, and not everyone can ride a hot air balloon!

And Luan soon knew why Zhou You asked her to insure the crew.

In this section, apart from Deputy Chief Ma and the other two, the three of the four villains, as well as Qiao Feng and Murong Fu, all need to hang on to Wia.

Especially Zhang Zhi and Huang Jin who played Murong Fu and Qiao Feng!

Huang Jin, as a low-level actor who has been playing tricks for ten years, being able to play Qiao Feng is definitely something he never dreamed of. The smoke from the ancestral grave is not enough to describe it. Therefore, after arriving in Longshi, he focused on training and worked hard. The level is definitely one of the best in the "Tianlong" crew!
At this time, Huang Jin had already tied up the wire, and it was Qiao Feng riding a horse to shoot!
As the first filming crew was ready, Zhou You also gestured, and then Huang Jin slapped his ass, and Mal under his crotch ran quickly, and the rail car also followed at a constant speed from the side.

Finally reached the place to take off, Huang Jin took a deep leap and flew into the air, retracting his palms to his chest, and then pushed out violently.

At the same time, on the ground side, a group of group performers also received the news, and all fell back on the ground!
For these two shots, Zhou You shot three times, mainly to select the handsome scene of Qiao Feng's appearance!

Then there was Qiao Feng and Murong Fu fighting alone!
The two fought directly in the air, and below were the startled horses!

The most important thing is that the two of them still need to make a move on top of each other, you punch, I block, you palm, I dodge sideways, and my feet have to move, instead of being rigid!

This scene, coupled with the startled twenty-odd horses above and below, made Luan gasp in shock!

"This... no wonder Mr. Zhou asked me to buy insurance for these actors, it's too dangerous!"

Wia is already very dangerous, not to mention there are more than [-] startled horses below, if it falls, it will be life-threatening!
"This wire has been improved. Let alone a person, a car is fine. Of course, it needs to be carefully checked every time before use!"

Wia is rarely used in the film and television industry. After all, the previous TV series or movies rarely made characters fly!
but……

Although this scene looks shocking, but...

It was still dry, although I knew it was just a filming scene, but I was still a little disappointed after seeing Luan!

after all……

This is different from the martial arts movie she had in mind, and Luan really talked to Zhou You about this matter!
Regarding Luan Lele's thoughts, Zhou You smiled irrefutably, and then a week later, when work was over, Zhou You approached Luan Lele.

"Is something wrong?"

"Let you see a piece of finished product!"

"Oh!" Luan's eyes lit up instantly, after all...

The finished product is naturally different from the material. You must know that a really good editor can even use a piece of very ordinary material to cut out a good work!

Luan Lie, Liang Yuan, Huang Jin, Zhang Zhi and others all came.

after all……

They also want to know what the finished product is like after they have photographed it!

Melon seeds, peanuts, drinks, small beer!

It's the beginning of April, and the weather is slowly getting warmer. Even at night, everyone just wears a coat!

In the rest building of the film and television base, Zhou You imported a ten-minute encrypted finished product, and then clicked to play it!
Everyone stared at the big screen, and then...

The screen flashed, and we entered the main drama directly!

The moon is dark and the wind is high, killing night!

The battle flag fluttered on the city tower, and a team of five guards was patrolling, as if every bird was not spared, but...

On the lower side of the city wall, there were two people clinging to the wall, just avoiding the sight of the patrols. After the group of people left, the two turned around, swam up quickly like geckos, and then climbed over the city wall.

then……

As soon as the screen changed, they came to a house inside the city wall. At this time, Marshal Helian Tieshu was looking at the map of the map with his men.

"My Xixia army, divided into three groups, sneaked into the territory of the Song Dynasty, and killed him by surprise. First, they captured Yongle City, and then drove straight forward. At that time, the Hetao area of ​​the Song Dynasty will be completely within our Xixia territory... Second level, second class!"

"Marshal is wise!"

As soon as the words fell, two men in black broke in. They were the deputy leader Ma and others who had assassinated Helian Tieshu. They were about to kill Helian Tieshu when someone broke through the wall and used a pair of scissors. At the same time, Deputy Gang Leader Ma knew that he was invincible, so he rushed out of the door!

In this way, the pursuit is complete!
Seeing the two flying down from the city wall, and the handsome movements, the others couldn't help but exclaim.

until……

When chasing soldiers on horseback and flying away from Cao Shangfei, Luan Liao couldn't help saying excitedly, "I watched and filmed this scene!"

He said again: "It's weird, why is there such a big gap between the shooting scene and the finished film!"

Can Zhou Youxin not be big?

After all, this is the world of martial arts, if it is not big, then he needs to find two peerless masters to film.It's no wonder that Luan Liao watched urban dramas in the past, and the difference between the shooting scene of urban dramas and the finished film is actually not that big!
Not to mention that there are not only editing in "Dragon Babu", but also a large proportion of post-production special effects!
Although there were only a dozen or so horses, after editing, it seemed that there were hundreds of horses galloping, and the two horses and deputy gang leaders in the encirclement seemed to have become turtles in the urn, waiting to be caught with nothing!

Especially the appearance of the scene of galloping horses makes people feel nervous inexplicably. Of course, it is mainly the BGM!

Right now!
The BGM has changed drastically, Joe, who is riding a horse and carrying a stereo, is here!

Mal ran a few steps, and because he was riding too slowly, he jumped straight up, flew into the air, and stretched out his palms!
Luan Liao had also seen this scene before!

"I'll go, so handsome!"

Bai Lu couldn't help but said.

And Huang Jin also looked excited at this time, this is him, with the appearance of the exciting BGM, there seems to be a feeling of blood surging, as if at this moment he has really become a hero, can use two palms to shoot dragons !

With this palm, the ground was already blasted, and with the addition of the light effect in the later stage, the effect was very explosive. Not to mention Zhang Zhi himself, Luan Liang Yuan and others were also fascinated by it.

It's an indescribable feeling, but... just fucking charming!
And after Qiao Feng solved the three villains, Murong Fu, played by Zhang Zhi, also appeared. The two fought alone, and their movements were capable and handsome. It is a generous portion!

And the camera switched to the group of beggars, in fact, mainly to show the tense atmosphere.

Then switch again, back to Qiao Feng and Murong Fu fighting alone!
Finally, the unique skills of the two in the book are revealed for the first time!
The Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon, Move the Stars!

Then Qiao Feng was injured by a sneak attack, captured the dragon to save people, came out with a dog-beating stick, was injured by an arrow, and played the best eighteen dragon-subduing palms in the world!
"Huh? It's over?"

"No, is this the end?"

"What's behind, what's behind!"

It suddenly disappeared, making the few people who were watching it uncomfortable, like that, you suddenly said that relatives came, isn't this torture?
Luan is also in a hurry!

"This is the first 10 minutes of the first episode, what do you think, how do you use it to attract people?"

"Needless to say, it immediately caught people's attention!"

"It turned out to be the beginning of the first episode. No wonder it is so exciting. If it were me, I would definitely continue to watch it!"

"Tsk tsk, it's awesome, Qiao Feng's character was set up in 10 minutes!"

"Hey, don't tell me, even though it's only 10 minutes, it really showed Qiao Feng's soaring arrogance all at once!"

Luan thought about it.

indeed so!

Why do many film and television works fail?

That's because the character creation in it has failed too much, and it has always been flat. To put it bluntly, this character can't stand up, it's too fake and empty!
But in just 10 minutes, the character of Qiao Feng was immediately shown to the audience.

It can be more than one, what does it mean?The martial arts are superb, and in just 10 minutes, the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon, the Hand of Capturing the Dragon, and the Dog Beating Stick have all come out.

And he can let the brothers go first, it's because of his righteousness, and from his behavior, it can be seen that his chest is full of pride, and all these performances are completely in line with his appearance and make-up!
"I'm showing you a version!"

As Zhou You spoke, another video was imported!
Everyone immediately became excited.

only……

After clicking on the video, everyone found out, isn't this what they watched just now?
but……

It didn't take long for someone to notice something was wrong.

Bai Lu scratched her head, with a puzzled look on her face: "Hey, no, why... why does it feel like something is missing!"

Luan frowned and said, "Background music is missing!"

Bai Lu suddenly said: "Hey, yes, there is no background music!"

Several people looked at Zhou You, but seeing that he didn't speak, they could only continue watching!
but……

From this point of view, we can see the problem.

In fact, the action editing and the like have not changed, except that the background music is missing, but the problem is... even if the background music is only missing, the sensory experience is greatly reduced. There is no excitement at all when watching this finished product for the first time.

Especially when Qiao Feng came out, everyone was a little excited, but after he came out, the excitement disappeared in an instant, and it didn't last until the end like it did the first time.

Maybe it's because of the second viewing?

but……

After watching this video without background music, Zhou You replayed the part with background music again!
The enthusiasm of several people to watch the drama came again.

"Hiss!" Luan gasped, and she understood: "Is the background music so important?"

It wasn't until this time that she understood why Zhou You had released such two versions, and finally understood where the gap was.

but……

She has been in the industry for so many years, and she knows a lot about TV dramas.

Many TV dramas basically only have two songs, that is, the opening theme song and the ending theme song. If there are a little more, there are no more than three or five songs. Besides the opening theme song and the ending theme song, most of the other songs appear during specific episodes!

but……

She suddenly discovered that in such a 10-minute segment of "Dragon Babu", the background music seemed to have never stopped from the beginning to the end?

It is precisely because of the music changes that fit the development of the plot that the mood of the viewers will change accordingly!

Nervous, exciting, excited!
This……

Isn't it a bit too extravagant!
"I can only say that martial arts movies need background music more than other movies, especially... the background music of other TV dramas, in many cases, may serve the plot, but... the music of martial arts movies will even be refined to a certain person. body!"

"Like this one!"

Zhou You played the background music of Qiao Feng's appearance!

Huang Jin's eyes lit up, and he said anxiously: "This music is not Qiao Feng's exclusive music!"

Zhou You smiled and nodded: "That's right, this music is Qiao Feng's exclusive music when he makes a move!"

Luan thought for a long time, his eyes became brighter and brighter, he patted the table, and said: "I understand, you are not filming a TV series, no, you are indeed filming a TV series, but... you are actually packaging a star in a TV series." !"

"Exclusive background music, exclusive martial arts moves, isn't this just labeling?"

Zhou You: ...

Well, if you understand it this way, it’s actually okay!

To put it bluntly, we want people to fall in love with the character, not the actor!

Of course, many times, the characters and the actors themselves complement each other!
And if you want to create a good character, you need to consider from multiple aspects, exclusive martial arts moves, exclusive opening poems, and exclusive BGM, among which BGM is absolutely indispensable or the most important!

after all……

You God of Gamblers are so awesome and handsome, if you change to the background music of "Fight the Landlord", you won't laugh out loud?
　I have something to do at night, only [-] words, I beg for a full order, thank you everyone!
