Chapter 60: Recording and dubbing

The establishment of Jenkins Pictures was silent, without any movement. Except for a few people in the industry, not many people knew that there was another star shell film company in Hollywood. Even after the establishment, Ryan did not even look at it. , The entire company has a total of eight staff members, including two part-time jobs, Scott Swift and Pat Kingsley.

Just like Ryan said, the company does not have much business. It neither invests in filming foreign scripts nor buys film distribution. All it needs to do is to dispatch the corresponding financial supervision personnel after the joint investment.

Negotiations with Warner are fairly smooth, Hollywood has already had a trend towards large-scale investment and large-scale production. Joint investment and accounting cooperation is bound to become the mainstream in the future, and audience tastes are the most elusive thing, which can draw on Ryan Jenkins’s The team invests together to reduce risk, so why not do it.

What's more, the investment quota requested by the other party only accounts for a quarter, which has not touched their bottom line.

Negotiations with the Hollywood record company, after Ryan came to the audition room again and hummed a few songs, the Hollywood record company came up with unprecedented efficiency, quickly finalized the contract, and promised to record and release the single as soon as possible. song.

"Ryan, I think the whole tune and singing should be more playful, try to reduce the irony, and the meaning of the lyrics is enough." In the recording studio, John Burns personally served as the producer of "he", Give your own opinions based on Ryan's singing.

Ryan is still very clear about the truth that it’s too late. After thinking about it, he felt that what the other party said was reasonable. He should be a bystander, not a mocker. The content of the lyrics is enough to make people across the United States understand what it means. He There is no need to add too many personal likes and dislikes to the singing.

"Okay, try again." Ryan put on the headset again.

Burns breathed a sigh of relief. The boy’s performance can be described as stunning. After the first time he entered the recording studio, he quickly found his state. However, there was a small problem in his singing. Often it is clear and can draw inferences from one another. In his opinion, his talent and talent in music far exceed writing!

He wanted to say to him, "Give up writing and acting, your future lies in pop music."

"The accompaniment needs to be changed, too." Ryan frowned after auditioning the recorded passages.

"Hmm." Burns nodded in agreement.

Ryan returned to the rest room on the other side, and George immediately delivered clear water. After he drank it all, he asked, "Is it still needed?"

"No need." Ryan waved his hand, and then said, "George, bring me the training plan customized by the record company, thank you."

After the contract was signed, the Hollywood Record Company not only sent someone to guide him, but also formulated a sound plan for the voice change period. After seeing it, Ryan was relieved a lot.

After reading a few paragraphs, Ryan remembered something else. Al Sorkin finally sold the script to his shell company. He looked through it roughly, and the general plot did not change much. As for the different He didn't plan to intervene in those subtleties, and directly gave the script to Miramax, and clearly stated that as long as there were no accidents, the script would definitely sell well.

Even though Harvey Weinstein is a bit dissatisfied that this is not his original, he also accepted the suggestion of co-production. As for the male and female protagonists, naturally it will not be Tom Cruise and Demi Moore, Ryan gave The suggestion is Brad Pitt and Nicole Kidman.

Pete is just a third-line actor now, and he is not as handsome as that of a creampie. Although he lacks box office appeal, Nicole Kidman can make up for this to a certain extent. What's more, using these two people can save money. Let the investment of the entire movie be discounted in half.

This kind of film that embodies the American spirit and the main theme, as long as the director and producer do not have cramps, there is no problem in recovering the cost.

What's more, the fat Harvey Weinstein has always been very keen on the market, and can be ranked in the entire Hollywood.

After several adjustments, this single was recorded for two full days. Especially the day after, Ryan's condition got better and better. Burns directly overturned the clips used the previous day and re-recorded.

If it weren’t for Ryan’s change of voice, it’s not suitable for long-term high-intensity work, Burns would even want him to keep trying.

Listening to the singing in the headset, Ryan shook his body lightly. His voice was very clean, with a hint of hoarseness, and a little bit of immaturity. It was just right for the lightness and playfulness that the song wanted to express. He heard it. , This song is at least one-third different from the original version of the previous life.

That's right, he borrowed the tune of "he" from "she" by the dancing wizard!

is just the original relaxed and cheerful lyrics, which he changed into nondescript sarcasm.

After finishing his short recording job, Ryan did not have a chance to relax. In addition to going to school and facing the harassment of paparazzi, he started to go to North Hollywood every day after school.

Fortunately, now there is a strong bodyguard and driver, which can prevent him from a lot of trouble to some extent, such as the Jenkins couple who came to harass him, and, in Nicole’s one hundred thousand After the sponsorship of US dollars, the school allowed his private car to drive directly into the campus for a certain distance to ensure that he can safely go to school.

Ryan also had his first large expenditure, and that was his special car. Qian Nicole, who originally bought the car, wanted to bear it, but he forcibly refused. His future expenditures will become larger and larger. Is it really necessary to let Nicole Kidman was in charge until he turned sixteen?

His original plan was to buy a Bentley or Rolls-Royce Silver Charm. After all, he had heard too much of these famous cars in his previous life, but he never rode it, but before Nicole’s eyes turned cold, he quickly rejected his words, and finally I bought a newest Audi 90.

George steadily parked the car in front of the T2 studio. The post-production of "Terminator 2" has entered the final stage. James Cameron often runs between Industrial Light and Magic and T2 studio. The main actors were also re-assembled by him to dub the edited samples.

Although it is just a few clips, the huge investment of more than 100 million US dollars has put great pressure on Cameron. He has strict requirements on every detail, which is even worse than when he was on the set.

"Ryan, what are you stupefying? We don't have any extra time to waste!" Seeing Ryan's slightly trance, Cameron burst out angrily, shocked Arnold Schwarzenegger quickly backed away. In case the fire of this city gate affects oneself.

In the compact dubbing room, the only thing left is Cameron’s roar. Ryan pinched his nose, took off the Mike, got up from the chair, and said unhurriedly, "Wait, Jim, you don’t Is the sound of the T800 shooting with a shotgun too bad?"

"Too bad?" Cameron seemed to be more angry, and shouted again, "Ryan Jenkins, you are only the star of this movie. The sound of the shotgun is not bad. It is up to my director to decide. "

The corners of Ryan's mouth trembled, and he understood that the other party was on the fire, and it was better not to care about him. In the sample just now, he heard the sound of T800 shooting with a shotgun. There is a huge difference from the previous film, and he can't help but fall into it. In the memory.

James Cameron suddenly stopped. After knowing Ryan for so long, he naturally knew that he would come up with some horrible ideas from time to time, and past experience proved that these ideas often have unexpected effects.

"Okay, Ryan. What did you think of, can you just say it?"

"For the dubbing of the shotgun, you use the sound of a shotgun, right?" Ryan asked.

"Yes." Cameron recalled, "The gunshots are indeed hoarse and low."

"Then why not have a more shocking sound? Only that kind of thrilling sound can match the powerful appearance of the T800?" Ryan rolled his eyes, "For example... the sound of howitzers or cannons."

A picture immediately appeared in Cameron's mind. The T800 pulled the trigger, the shotgun spewed out flames, and the T1000 fell to the ground. The loud noise resounded like a cannon bombarding a tank, echoing in the auditorium. The audience was terrified.

After more than ten seconds, Cameron slowly nodded and shouted, "This is the end of today's dubbing. Editing and scoring... No, UU Reading is to give the directors of all departments to I call, right away! I want to modify the sample!"

Ryan and Schwarzenegger stared at each other. The style of this man is really resolute and vigorous. The tyrant director did not give them any face. "You can go, hurry up, especially Ryan, hurry up! Don't give here. I am messing up."

This is the demolition of the bridge across the river! Ryan sighed from the bottom of his heart and said to Schwarzenegger, "Arnold, let's go."

The two of them walked towards the gate, and saw the whole studio jumping around. They were caught in a frenzy, and they could only shake their heads and smile.

James Cameron’s pursuit of film can only be described in two words—perfect—even though he knows that it is impossible to make a perfect film in this world, it does not prevent him from working hard in this direction.

Especially, when Ryan saw his rough and sloppy image, he only sighed that the job of director is definitely not something ordinary people can do.

The post-production of most films often exceeds the shooting time, especially with the development of film CG technology. Post-production will take longer and longer. A director can produce a qualified commercial film in a year, which is already a super fast Up.

Of course, you can also make two or even three works a year, but the result of shoddy work is only one, and the market and investors will soon abandon you.

If most of the post-production special effects were not outsourced to Industrial Light & Magic, it would be a big question whether "Terminator 2" could be released on the originally scheduled Independence Day.
