Chapter 172 0172, BGM Selection
A few days passed quickly.
Yunfeng seemed to have returned to his previous life on Earth, working from nine to five, commuting between Youxianqi Company and Modu Conservatory of Music.
These days, he lived in the school dormitory.
College students can live in the school during winter and summer vacations, because there will be a large number of students staying in the school for various activities, internships or part-time jobs in the university, and most schools will not centrally arrange students for accommodation during winter and summer vacations, so they can just stay in the original dormitory.
Since there is a place to live, why go to the hotel?
He is not so rich that he has nowhere to spend it.
And the first chapter of the audio comic "Fengyun I" has been almost completed after a major revision in the past few days.
The dynamic effect of the comic has increased by 150%, and the dubbing has also invested more emotions. This version is much more vivid than the previous one.
Animator Nie Wenjun and voice actors Lu Xiaojia and Wei Xue have made great contributions.
But...
It is almost finished, but not yet finished.
The important BGM is missing.
For example, the TV series Fengyun on Earth in the previous life used a song called "Lonely Star Singing". There are electronic synthesis versions, dongxiao versions, and erhu versions. It runs through the whole play. Bu Jingyun, Nie Feng, Wuming, etc. have all used it, which can be called the finishing touch.
In the company's recording studio.
After two hours of waiting, the onomatopoeia audio was finally synthesized.
At this time, the editor Zhou Sidong said to Yunfeng: "Boss, I found 30 songs and sent them to your email."
Yunfeng nodded and said: "Okay, I'll listen to it later."
The audio comic "Fengyun I" wants to make a splash and open up the audio book market, so every detail cannot be sloppy.
Therefore, Yunfeng supervised it personally.
He didn't want to invest so much money to set up an audio and video studio, but in the end, the things he made had no sales, and he still had to rely on love to generate electricity.
After watching the video, the picture and dubbing were basically fine, and the only thing left was the BGM.
Yunfeng returned to the office.
Turn on the computer and click on the email.
Apart from ancient music, it is very difficult to find Chinese style and Chinese folk music in this era of electronic music and Western style.
It is good to find 30 songs.
Another point is that audiobooks are charged, so the songs in them must have copyright or commercial authorization.
Even if you find a suitable one, you may not be able to use it because you can't agree on the price.
Yunfeng plugged in headphones and started listening to the songs one by one...
"The melody of this song is too cheerful, suitable for playing at a wedding."
...
"It's rare, there is also a song for Lusheng, but the melody is too flat."
...
"It's passionate enough, but why is it only 30 seconds?"
...
Soon, all 30 songs were listened to.
Half of the songs are of high quality, but they are not suitable for "Wind and Cloud I".
Yunfeng has his own understanding of the soundtrack.
Should it be the sound of stringed instruments and bells, or should the four major instruments of guitar and keyboard be complete?
Judging from the existing examples on Blue Planet and Earth, music with a strong modern flavor occupies the vast majority. For example, CCTV's 1986 version of "Journey to the West" on Earth used many electronic music effects to express gods, demons and monkeys; and CTS's 30th version of "Journey to the West" on Blue Planet also used more electric guitars and electronic synthesizers.
However, the vast majority of martial arts soundtracks are too far off track. They are completely in line with the trend and have a fashionable style. The martial arts flavor is completely lost, and it is more like a platter-style concert.
Yunfeng knows the advantages of modern music and Western instruments, but after all, it is a "martial arts" in the brilliant culture of China, and it should go in the direction of classical and national as much as possible to better highlight the sense of history and longevity.
"What to do..."
Lower the requirements?
This is not his style of doing things.
Write it yourself?
But he is not capable enough.
"Ouch..."
Yunfeng slapped his thigh.
The previously obtained silver professional resource [Music score: "Sunrise on Emei Mountain"] is a Chinese-style suona music. It is said to be the martial music of a character named Lian Emei in the puppet animation "Pili Puppet Show" in Taiwan, China. The main melody is high-energy and passionate.
Isn't this just right?
And the copyright is in hand, which can save a lot of money.
"I just played it at my cousin's wedding last month, how could I forget it."
Yunfeng shook his head and sighed, remembering it.
Then he opened the composition auxiliary software on the tablet and tried to change the beat and melody of "Sunrise on Emei Mountain".
"The effect is good."
The original song, played with suona, can be used as BGM during martial arts, and after the variation, played with erhu, it can be used as BGM during literary drama.
Now that it has been determined, preparations begin.
After lunch, Yunfeng brought his suona to the Blue Music Group.
Chen Cheng listened to his purpose and smiled and said, "The recording studio is empty recently, you can use it as you like."
Although Xianqi Company has a recording studio, the equipment is relatively simple. It is OK for dubbing, but it is not very suitable for recording songs and music.
So, Yunfeng can only ask Chen Cheng for help.
On the way to the instrument room, Chen Cheng said, "Xiao Yun, I didn't expect you to speak Cantonese."
Yunfeng was stunned for a moment, thinking that he must have watched the video of himself singing "Like You" for Tang Yu on Bilibili, and then made up a lie and said, "I thought the dialects of various places were interesting for a while, so I learned them for fun."
Upon hearing this, Chen Cheng was stunned and asked in surprise: "You can't just speak Cantonese?"
Yunfeng nodded and said: "Well, there are also the 'Wu dialect' of our Hangzhou, the 'Sichuan dialect' of Sichuan, the 'Modu dialect' of the Magic City, etc."
"..." What else could Chen Cheng say.
After chatting for a few words, we came to the musical instrument room.
The Lightyear band hasn't had any performances recently and has been working in the company, training, writing songs and so on.
"Sunrise in Emei" is not a suona solo, it contains drums, electric guitar and electronic synthesizer.
And this is a silver-level professional resource, with music scores and arrangements.
Accompanying Yunfeng is something that the Lightyear Band is extremely happy to do, because being on "Single Love Song" has given them a lot of notices.
Besides, with Chen Cheng, the artist department manager, saying hello, they couldn't help even if they didn't want to.
Yunfeng sent the arrangement to them, and then said: "This is also my first time to collaborate with traditional musical instruments and modern musical instruments. I will try it out first to get a feel for it." Before, it was either a solo or an ensemble with Tang Yu's guqin.
In fact, this is also the first time that Lightyear Band has collaborated with ethnic musical instruments.
As expected, many problems have arisen in the collision between classical and popular, national and modern.
Yunfeng said to the members of the Lightyear band: "The electric guitar must be cut at the right time. When the electronic synthesizer stops, it should be cleaner..."
With the addition of suona, it becomes difficult to find a sense of coordination and balance between the instruments.
There is nothing we can do about this.
Tacit understanding does not just exist.
