After overtime, I returned to the gate of the community. The nearby shops were all dark and lit, leaving only a row of street lamps standing alone.
The lamp tubes of the street lamps gave off a pale light, like a white wax on the asphalt.
At this time, the stainless steel gate was closed, so Qi Jin had no choice but to knock on the window of the duty room. Due to his professional relationship, his time span for returning home from get off work is very large. He arrives at five or six in the morning, and is late at two or three in the middle of the night. After coming and going, almost everyone in the community security office recognizes him.
"Working overtime again? What time is it?" The person on duty tonight rubbed his sleepy eyes, saw him through the blinds, and greeted him as usual.
"It's almost Mid-Autumn Festival, so there are a lot of things to do." Qi Jin smiled apologetically.
I really don't know what time it is.
Some work could have been left to continue until tomorrow morning, but I gritted my teeth to catch up with the schedule and completed the task a day earlier. This way, you won't be in a hurry when you travel the day after tomorrow.
When walking towards the apartment building, he specifically took out his mobile phone to check the time. Twenty-six o'clock is actually too early.
I turned on the text message function, and found that my unsent "I'm sick" was still lying in the draft box this morning, and the recipient column was always empty.
"No need, I'm already healed."
Qi Jin gave a wry smile as if answering a question to herself, silently watching as the text message was cleared under the backward cursor, and then walked upstairs.
I have been in a highly tense state of work tonight, and I haven't recovered yet, and I have no sleepiness.
Qi Jin immersed herself in a tub of hot water to relax her limbs, closed her eyes, poured the water on her face with her palms together, and took a deep breath between the suffocation that hit her forehead over and over again.
It would be nice if the memories generated during the day could be turned into water droplets on the tips of the hair, seeping out and dripping continuously until there was not a single drop left.
While those are still water droplets, it is not a turbulent tide that cannot be stopped by oneself.
Take advantage of now.
Qi Jin rested his forehead on the cold tile with a tired expression, frowned, and knocked a few times in a sullen manner to regain his senses. After scooping himself out of the water, he dried himself and returned to his room, turning on his personal computer.
There are many ways to distract attention, and the one he is most accustomed to is supporting dramas.
Because once he enters the role, Qi Jin no longer exists, and he is integrated into the plot development of the story, so there is no need to think about superfluous things for the time being.
The later stage of the "Trap" crew was really trustworthy.
When I opened the chat record of the QQ group that I didn't have time to watch yesterday, I found that the crew was full of joy. It turned out that the first demo of the first issue was out last night.
Since he handed in the dry tone, post-production has been put on the schedule, plus the previous episodes of the show have been passed on from ten to ten, and the reviews have been very good, the attitude of Xiaoqiao to him seems to have improved a lot. In the later stage, he also said that under the premise of Tongquetai as the opponent's CV, it was not bad that he could record such a level, and the communication within the group was much more harmonious than before.
The later stage - the lock of a lifetime: Come up and spit blood, DEMO, this annoying little goblin, has finally been dealt with by me! !
Xiao Qiao from the Bronze Sparrow Harem: Aaah, is it true? ? o(*////▽////*)q
Da Qiao of Tongque Harem: Tongque finally has a new drama! Hard work on the lock!
Artwork-Cloud Piece Cake: Congratulations! ! I can finally start drawing posters, yeah~O(∩＿∩)O
Propaganda-Onion: FUCK! The demo actually came out, I have to start looking for materials and prepare to make a post when the time comes.
Planning - Rouge: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa awesome! I can finally listen to the demo! look forward to! Lock lock your speed is so beautiful! TAT
The later stage - a lifetime of locks: Hee hee, of course, I have always given priority to starting work on Tong Que's silly mother's drama.
Big Qiao of the Bronze Sparrow Harem: Please listen!
Xiao Qiao from the Bronze Sparrow Harem: Please listen! Ask for group mail!
Screenwriter - Puppet Show: What the hell! ! Lock lock, have you come up with a DEMO? ? So fast! ! Ask for group mail! !
Director - Sifang Knife: Σ ( °△ °|||)︴ It seems that the drama can really be released during the National Day...
Later stage - lock for a lifetime: Well, if you want to return the sound, the crew will try to urge it in the past two days, and you can send it when you change it~
Director - Sifang Insert: Okay, I'll go listen to DEMO now and write a back-voice, and I'll give it to the two main actors right away.
Later stage - lock for a lifetime: then I will send group emails~
…
"Oh, it's really efficient." Qi Jin raised her eyebrows and had to praise her.
If I remember correctly, "Trap" is expected to have three episodes, the first, the middle, and the second. The entire script of the first episode counts nearly 14,000 words. No matter how compressed or abbreviated the finished product is, it will take at least 40 to 50 minutes. According to the instructions of the chat record, he opened the group mail to download the DEMO file, and the duration displayed in the player was one hour and twelve minutes.
Although I don't understand technical things, I basically understand the late market situation in the circle. With such a long script, it is quite impressive to be able to produce a demo in a month.
Clicking on the DEMO and listening to the first two scenes, he finally knew why Rouge would rather aggrieve herself than offend the later stage.
As expected of a big hand, the speed and quality are all levers—
Although the final effect of the two protagonists is different from what he understands, it is still wonderful to listen to the original story if the original story is put aside.
The efficiency of the director's cutting in all directions is not low. The demo that was released yesterday was sent to him this morning.
In order to take care of him, even in a few seconds, where to return is clearly marked. The conscience of the industry.
Qi Jin went through the content of the replay. I can play well in other places, but I have to go back to the scenes with Tongjatai's opponents more - especially the scenes with emotional conflicts.
The lines that require roaring and shouting, because the impact is reduced by the use of a feminine 0.5 sound line.
The psychological monologue that needs to express the inner struggle sounds a little stiff because the characters have been reshaped.
In order to maintain the uniformity of the characters, these places are not strictly controlled in terms of quality.
Sifang Gudao probably expected it from the beginning, so she reminded him in the sound book in advance: Many of her opinions were because she felt that the performance deviates too much from the original, not the sense of drama, and let him "think about it by himself" return".
The implication is that if being faithful to the original will lead to a decrease in the compatibility of both sides of the main campaign, you can choose not to return.
In any case, at this moment, he just urgently needs a script, a character, so that he can temporarily calm down and stop wandering in the three-dimensional space.
Open the recording software, adjust the microphone, and start rework.
The tone requires a more intense scene. Qi Jin intends to suppress his voice a little, mentioning about 0.6, abandoning the so-called "style" feeling, so that the character is biased towards his original understanding. Because most of those lines are short sentences, and many of them are only four or five words, even if the audience is adjusted this way, they should not be able to hear it.
The difficulty lies in the inner monologue.
By that scene, the plot has developed to the stage of in-depth contact between two people, which is a transitional period between pure physical union and mutual affection.
His character in the story had the idea of leaving the underworld because of a few words from the detective.
However, the upper echelons of the underworld organization have favored him first. On the one hand, he does not want to betray his benefactor and kill his subordinates. On the other hand, he has an inextricable obsession with attacking. While habitually abusing each other, there is both the joy of being in close contact with each other and the despair of not being able to love each other completely.
Whether the ambivalence behaves well or not determines the success or failure of this scene to a large extent—
The director pointed out that the few words he murmured in his heart in front of the criminal police sounded unsatisfactory, and something was missing.
He felt the same way after listening to the DEMO himself.
The tone is generally correct, but if you zoom in on the details, there will be a forged inferior texture, which is not very real and cannot impress the audience from the bottom of your heart.
"Now that you know it, you shouldn't appear in front of me again."
The first line is to return immediately after listening to the DEMO. Second after second as the recording timer is converted to a waveform graph that appears on the edit window.
Qi Jin pressed pause and listened to it again, feeling that it was not much different from the one in DEMO, frowning, delete it and repeat.
"Now that you know it, you shouldn't do it again... ah, no, no." The second, third, and fourth times passed, he always felt that the more he listened and returned, the more unable to grasp the key points of his tone.
He recorded and deleted once, and the waveform diagram appeared repeatedly on the screen, and was selected and deleted in a blink of an eye.
Some CV recordings like to record everything and give it to the director to cut, while he tends to keep the two or three times that feel the best and discard the rest.
"now that-"
The two words at the beginning of the sentence came out, and the index finger had already pressed the pause button in advance. Qi Jin was a little anxious, shook his head to himself, and went back and deleted all of them. Mingming felt that he was about to reach the emotional point in his mind, but he always turned a corner at the moment of making a sound, deviates from the direction, and runs farther and farther.
He decided to turn off the demo audio.
Abandon the impression in the demo, overturn it and start over, recall the scene in the script from scratch, and imagine yourself in it.
Yes, it was in the early hours of the morning before dawn, and the nightclub he ran had ended and closed, and he was drinking alone in front of the bar. It was a dark night outside, and the dark red lights in the room gave off a slight dizziness, and the detailed sound effects gradually came up, such as the sound of ice cubes moving in a wine glass, such as jazz music in the sound, such as the depths of shadows. Footsteps came out.
That person didn't know what means he used to stubbornly break into his own territory again at a time and place that shouldn't be there.
Physical, as well as psychological, turf.
At this time, he was drunk, his eyes were misty, and there was no fear in his heart, but he felt inexplicably bored.
"What are you doing here?"
His lips parted lightly, and he issued an expulsion order without expulsion words with a cold smile.
The other party did not reply.
"I have already said... I will not leave the organization, and I will not betray the organization. Last time I didn't send you a bullet directly, it was merciful. Now that you don't even wear a gun, you just send it to your door in a generous way, Do you think...I'll let you go?"
With a hint of drunkenness, he walked towards the other party.
The way of walking in the drunk state is slightly staggered, and even the speech is somewhat intermittent, and the breath is cloudy. However, his whole body was covered with thorns, and the coercive element in his tone could not be less.
Recalling this with closed eyes, the two previous lines were played very naturally, as if they had captured a trace of feeling.
Very good, the next part is the dialogue that I have been stuck on for a long time-
"I know you won't."
Suddenly, a voice sounded in the scene that kept popping up in my mind.
Different from the DEMO, another person's voice and the presentation of another emotion. The sound of wild geese heading north.
Unpredictable, he cut into his current thinking abruptly, and there was no sign at all.
what.
His eyes opened subconsciously, but the scene did not break because of it, and continued forward.
The thousands of lines in front of him seem to have been pulled out of the space and reassembled until they merged into the resolute look in the script, with a faintly bitter image of a policeman between his brows.
I've also done some brainstorming on the character itself before.
But this time, the silhouette of the other party was clearer, so clear that the projection of someone in reality could be seen.
Qi Jin was in a trance for a while, her throat was a little dry, and the line came out without knowing it.
"Now that you know..."
He clearly wanted to maintain a cold smile, but for a moment the corner of his mouth was lifted up, and the smile could not be formed. Rather than questioning the other party, it is better to mutter to himself, expecting yet disappointed, heartbroken and disheartened.
"Shouldn't be there again - in front of me."
Yep, that's how it feels.
It's this paradoxical feeling.
It's ready to record.
Taking advantage of the breakthrough of this bottleneck, Qi Jin worked hard and recorded all the rest of the rework content. After archiving it, he sent it back to the director Sifang and asked her to cut the sound.
Taking off the earphones, he stared at the script for a long time but couldn't recover.
Maybe I have figured out that version of the recording of the opposite scene too many times, and this kind of unintentional flashback to another CV has not happened. In order not to be brainwashed by the initial impression, he also went back to listen to the audio of the opposite play on Tongjae Terrace that day, and only officially started recording after he heard repeatedly that he was used to it.
However, the strangest thing is that when I listen to other voices, I actually think of another person who has nothing to do with it.
Originally, the purpose of supporting the drama was to temporarily forget about the three dimensions, but instead, because of recalling it, it stimulated the emotion of the recording
absurd.
It's so absurd...
Qi Jin nervously closed all programs and turned off the computer monitor. Under the dim lamp, he saw his pale face reflected on the surface of the screen, examining the swaying traces in his eyes.
You can't put the blame entirely on the character setting. A truly professional CV can be done without being disturbed by any foreign objects.
"Qi Jin," he stared straight at himself in the reflection, and whispered, "Don't be stupid."
Do not be silly.
It would be terrifying if even the little haven of dubbing was occupied.
When was the last time you experienced a similar mood? It's college days.
At the beginning of the awakening of sexual orientation, I have not been deeply involved in the world, and I have a simple and optimistic attitude towards many things. I like to be frank and outspoken, and I only think that the difference is not enough for the colored eyes of people around me.
Unlike now, at that time he had no special hobbies to pass the time and fully occupy his spare private life.
Also, he chose to start.
Now he has learned a lesson, knows the cruelty of the so-called reality, and the price he pays after making a rash choice.
To this day, those costs are still overdrafting his life.
He is no longer an ignorant teenager, he is now independent, strong and free. A person can also live well.
Repeating the same mistakes, I don't even want to see the one in ten thousand possibility.
The probability can only be zero.
