When copying Gu Yi's works, he always first looks at whether there are similar scenes on earth under this theme.
For example, the song "Happiness" I copied was very popular before. Later, a school dance club performed a similar dance at the party.
Then the inexplicable "Xi" became popular again.
Also, although the name of "Blue and White Porcelain" is "Blue and White Porcelain", it is about Ru kiln, but because of the special nature of this world, it is just right to transfer it here.
Then there is the song "Sunshine Boy, Sunshine Girl", although it first appeared in "Family with Children", but later the living dead bought the copyright and sang it repeatedly at music festivals and performances.
Some people even posted it in some short videos, and this song also appeared in British bar DJ songs.
So this time Gu Yi came out with "Chasing Dreams".
"Chasing Dreams" was created in 2001, but in 2013 it became the theme song of Kuaiman, and in 2015 it became the ending song of "That Year of the Rabbit".
Kuai Nan has not seen it, but Gu Yi has seen this animation. Every time he watches this song, Gu Yi will always burst into tears unconsciously.
Gu Yi always writes such impressive songs very quickly.
Write the lyrics first, and then Gu Yi will compose the music.
The instruments in the first part of this song are relatively simple, with just a few drum rhythms, and the bass is not difficult either.
The main thing is that the piano and guitar highlight the main melody.
But the music played by these two instruments is not complicated either.
Even Gu Yi can play it, and let alone Gu Yi, he can play it even if he brings Jia Zhe over to teach him for a few days.
After working overtime in the evening and finishing all the work, Gu Yi started making adjustments the next day.
When the gala band made this song, they didn't have much money. The reason why they sang the broken note on this song was actually a coincidence. At that time, the pianist played the piano music with a slightly higher pitch, but Later, they didn't have the money to do it anymore, so every time they sang at the climax, the note would break.
Unexpectedly, this later became a major feature of gala.
After two days of adjustments, Gu Yi called others.
Yu Xue, Zhou Le, and Zhu Yanfang are all in Yanjing, and Jia Zhe is still in his hometown. He bought the tickets immediately after receiving the call.
However, if Jia Zhe wants to come to Yanjing, he must first take a bus to Taiyuan, the provincial capital, and then take the high-speed rail.
So on the afternoon of the fourth day, everyone gathered and started practicing with the music score.
After reading the score, Zhou Le thought about it and adjusted the position and asked Jia Zhe to be the drummer.
Two days are enough for Jia Zhe to practice.
From the afternoon to the evening of that day, after Yu Xue and Zhou Le practiced their own songs, Zhou Le went to teach Jia Zhe how to play drums, while Gu Yi and Yu Xue went to teach Zhu Yanfang how to sing.
Thanks to his experience in "Summer of the Band", Zhu Yanfang also mastered certain skills.
When singing normally, you just need to stick to the key. The only purpose is to stay in tune and remember the lyrics.
When you reach the climax of the chorus, sing at the top of your lungs, and sing as loudly as possible without going out of tune.
This time their audio tracks were recorded one by one, which means they can do post-production separately.
They each recorded their own tracks in two days, and then Zhou Le supervised Jia Zhe's drumming while completing the post-production work.
In fact, the post-production of musical instruments is not difficult. After recording a demo, you can even repeat it later. That is to say, they are more demanding and have to record the whole thing.
The final post-processing is noise reduction.
What's really more complicated is doing the post-production for Zhu Yanfang's vocals.
So Zhu Yanfang finished recording the lyrics line by line, and Gu Yi and Zhou Le did it separately. Now they can only divide the work and cooperate, otherwise they wouldn't be able to finish it in one night.
Fortunately, Zhu Yanfang loves to learn, and the requirements for this song are not very high, otherwise they would have to delay the submission.
On the 16th day of the first lunar month, after the music was finished, they listened to it again and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so Zhou Le drove directly to Party A with several members of the band and handed over the audio files to the party.
However, as partners, they still visited here.
I took a look at the dubbing room and post-production office of this animation studio.
After watching it for a while, Gu Yi suddenly became interested in dubbing.
Although in the past when filming movies and TV series, most of the time the sound was recorded once on set, and then in post-production, the actors also had to dub it again.
After all, the ambient sound in the location is too noisy. Even if everyone stays quiet, there are so many people, even if they are walking back and forth, the camera will make noise when moving on the track.
Although the ears cannot hear it, the machine can capture it.
Rather than using that kind of sound effect, it is better to mix it again later and then add the required ambient sounds.
But during the visit, Gu Yi found that the dubbing of film and television dramas and the dubbing of animations were still different.
So Gu Yi also chatted with the dubbing director here about the differences between the two. The more he talked about it, the more interested he became.
They also exchanged business cards when leaving.
When he returned to the studio, Gu Yi called Song Fuxing: "Hey, Brother Song, can you help me find out if there are any jobs for dubbing animations or animations?"
"What? Are you interested in this aspect?"
"Yes, I visited that studio today and found it quite interesting. If I have a chance, I would like to help pick up one or two of them. I would also like to give it a try. I feel like I can practice my lines this way."
"Okay, this is easy to find. The place where voice actors are famous now is Japan. It is difficult for domestic voice actors in this field to get out of the industry, and there are only a few people coming and going. If you are willing to go and don't charge more, they I will definitely be willing to do so.”
Gu Yi thought about it. It was true. Animation works and film and television dramas actually have many similarities. Nowadays, national comics and domestic cartoons also want ratings and playback volume.
If you can use yourself as a gimmick, there will definitely be more people watching.
"Okay, then Brother Song, please help me keep an eye on it, but do I have any work this year?"
"Yes, in just the four or five days since the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, at least twenty of them have come here. I'm sorting it out now. I originally planned to go over and talk to you later, but since you mentioned this It’s something, how about I give you a brief summary on the phone first?”
"also."
"First of all, there are six TV series, four of which are idol dramas, three ancient ones and one modern one. I personally feel that none of these are suitable for you, but I will also list them in the table when the time comes. Wait a moment. I brought the script to you to read when I went over. If you are interested, it is not impossible to agree.
The remaining two are about anti-drug themes and the other is a period drama. I think these two are okay. You can watch them again later.
Then there are seven movies. I have read all the scripts. Five of them are bad movies. Among the remaining two, one is a war movie made by director Nie Yun, and the other is a new director. However, There are also big companies behind it.
Especially this film by Nie Yun, I strongly recommend you to watch it. "
Gu Yi thought for a while, war movies would involve a lot of things: "Brother Song, there is nothing wrong with the script of this war movie. Don't do things like "Under the Dark Clouds" again. Although we can take care of this matter, we still can't do it." It’s not good to do this.”
"Don't worry, I've read the script. It's very well written. Even though your character died in the end, his death was heroic."
"That's fine, but are there any others? These are only thirteen."
"Yes, the remaining seven are all variety shows, including two music variety shows. Because Chengfeng Pilang rejected them before, these are not included, but the remaining two are like "Peak Rap" It’s a competition type, but it’s not rap, it’s serious singing.”
Gu Yi felt a little numb in his butt after hearing this, so he changed his position and said: "Forget it, it's enough to participate in one. If there are any new tricks, you can go again. The remaining five Woolen cloth?"
"Of the remaining five, one is shot in a studio and you can be a guest, and there are three lifestyle variety shows. One is similar to the "Farming" you participated in before, but you are not required to farm, as long as you are at home Just chat, do tasks, and play games. There is also "Sprint Bro". This one is for you to be a guest, and the ratings of this variety show are also very high, but it is not Love Macaques, it is broadcast on the Polar Bear Platform , I think you can go, and there is also the fourth season of "Extreme Life" directed by Ding Liang and Ding, and this time it will not be filmed in China, but will be filmed abroad."
"Why did Director Ding Liang ask me to return for a limited time this time?"
"Yes, he wants you and Yu Xue to return this time, and the lineup this time is very powerful. Apart from you two, the others are also big names. There is a man and a woman who are top-notch, and Both actors are top-notch."
"Director Ding spent a lot of money this time. Not only did he shoot abroad, but he also hired top-notch people." Gu Yi said with a smile.
"That's because Director Ding has developed so well in the past few years, so sponsors are willing to invest money. I heard that this variety show will cost hundreds of millions."
"Okay, then Brother Song, why don't I go over there, and we'll talk over there then."
"Well, you can bring Yu Xue with you. After all, "Extreme Life" also has Yu Xue. You two can get to know him together, and then go talk to his parents after you get to know him better."
"good."
Then Gu Yi drove Zhou Le's car and took Yu Xue to his studio first.
After entering, several people chatted and looked at the time schedule of these tasks.
Finally they decided who would participate.
First of all, you can go to "Sprint Bro". After all, only one episode was filmed in the past, and the appearance fee was also high. The appearance fee for one episode was two million.
Because since "The Golden Guard" and "Let It Go" were released one after another and achieved good box office results, plus Gu Yi has appeared in the Spring Festival Gala and has the fire ambassador and the image ambassador of the National Museum Blue and White Porcelain Museum, Gu Yi has basically reached the top The threshold for being popular has been reached. Next, as long as there is one more work that breaks out of the circle, it will become top-notch.
So he could earn two million a day, and Gu Yi had no reason to refuse.
Secondly, "Extreme Life" can also agree.
"Extreme Life" will only be filmed for one month this time.
That is from July 1st to 31st.
In addition, due to scheduling reasons in TV dramas, Gu Yi gave up period dramas and still planned to try anti-drug themes.
I have also read the script, and there are no problems. Although I am also a villain this time, I am not the male lead.
The rank is around the fourth male lead, but the ones in front of him are all veteran actors, so the gold content of this male lead is still very high.
The filming period of the TV series is five months, but Gu Yi's scenes are not that many. The total filming can be completed in about a month, mainly because he has to play the main character in the later stage.
The time is mainly concentrated from September to October, and the shooting location is in Guangdong.
Finally, there’s that war movie.
Since we were shooting in winter, we had to wait until it snowed.
The shooting start time is December 15th, and it is conservatively estimated that the filming will take until March of the following year, but whether the filming can be completed depends on the weather.
But this way, I can be free between now and March and from mid-April to July.
During this time, I can just be busy with graduation matters.
First, you have to choose a topic for your thesis. In the meantime, you have to complete the thesis, and you have to defend it when you graduate.
If you have free time in between, you can also go to music festivals and the like.
"By the way, Brother Song, please help me contact Director Nie Yun again, because there are a lot of things at the end of the year. If you want to attend some film festivals or music festivals, you may need to take a day or two off. time.
After all, this is Director Nie Yun’s first time working with him, so don’t offend anyone by asking for leave. As for the school, I will contact my tutor first to see what arrangements will be made. Graduate students, in addition to research projects, may also perform some plays. "
After saying that, the two began to contact each other.
Yu Xue ran to the office outside to chat with others. She was still very curious about Gu Yi's studio. After all, this was her first time here.
The staff outside was also interested in Yu Xue, the future boss lady.
After contacting the graduate tutor at the school, the other party said that he would definitely go there before the semester started.
You also have to attend a few days of classes, at least to know what kind of courses the school offers at the master's level.
But after going through all the classes, you can go outside to take the show.
Even if I take on a role outside, I have to write the public basic papers that I should write in school, and I also need to write two short papers each including film history research and performance theory.
When graduating from the first year of graduate school, individuals must also have at least one film and television work starring during the first year of graduate school. If they fail to pass the thesis by then, or the film and television works are not achieved, they will also be repeated.
After hearing this request, Gu Yi immediately said that there was no problem. Papers and the like would not be a problem for Gu Yi, a former penman.
That is to say, in terms of film and television research, you may still have to think about it and read more books, but in terms of performance theory, you can completely combine some knowledge points in books and your own performance experience to write.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Yi told his tutor about his time schedule. After hearing this, the tutor thought about it over the phone and said that there was no problem with the arrangement and that there was basically no conflict with the school.
In addition, Song Fuxing also contacted Nie Yun.
Nie Yun said that if you don't take leave when filming a key scene, you can take one or two days off. After all, when filming, actors will inevitably have some personal matters to deal with.
But there is one condition for asking for leave, which is that no information about the crew can be disclosed outside.
This is naturally not difficult.
In this way, Gu Yi arranged his plans for the whole year.
After making these arrangements, Song Fuxing left.
Because after Gu Yi is confirmed, he will have to negotiate remuneration with these producers.
