Chapter 41 Good Voice
This sentence was said by Yang Sifan more than ninety times throughout the night, and Pan Hongsheng said it more than fifty times - both of them were drunk.
The next day, when Pan Hongsheng woke up from the beer can, he felt a little incredible: Am I drunk?
This was the first time he had been drunk since he recovered his skills.
He stood up slowly and saw Yang Sifan who was like mud beside him. He didn't know how much he drank yesterday, and there were countless beer cans around him.
He gently kicked the other party twice with his toes, but there was no reaction.
Pan Hongsheng stood up with great difficulty and struggled to open the other party's "portable painting platform".
This is the equipment that Pan Hongsheng specially purchased for Fang Sifan. It cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. It is a high-tech comic special equipment that combines multiple technologies.
The rough style of painting and the lines and outlines are full of expressiveness! Pan Hongsheng held the other person's work and his hands were slightly trembling: It's him! It's him!
Thunder Superstar’s new work swept across the continent like a strong wind.
"Thunder Sword" is like its name, with lightning speed, those plagiarism works, those shoddy and extravagant homogeneous domestic animations that are extremely lucrative and want to attract money.
Many children were shocked during the pilot, and countless adults were also shocked: it turned out that there were such cartoons!
Lei Jian adopts the traditional 2D model, and does not chase the wind and make it into 3D. This principle is very simple. 3D is actually very low in cost. It only takes a physics engine and model. 2D is about meticulous craftsmanship. Only by connecting different static paintings can a true 2D animation be formed.
In fact, there is no pure 3D in the industry now. The so-called Blue Cat series and the Qin Shi Mingyue series use 3D because it saves money in this way.
But the disadvantages of doing this are also very obvious: 2D images are inevitably interspersed in 3D, and those low-cost cartoons will have many ugly scenes and characters. This is why the ugly glasses monster in the Blue Cat was born.
Nowadays, domestic animation producers do 3D without doing 2D, which is typical of not knowing how to walk and learn to run first.
You are not doing well in 2D production, and you still want to do 3D? There is no difference between this Chinese national team aiming at the World Cup.
The key to 2D animation is to require a cartoonist with solid painters, which also requires a lot of work from a cartoonist. Because a scene may require a lot of static pictures, it also requires a lot of helpers.
But Yang Sifan stubbornly did it himself and did not allow anyone to interfere in his work. He was worried that these helpers would reveal their works in the middle, and this kind of thing was not news in the industry.
In this way, he needs to bear unimaginable workload, but!
In just a few months, he had completed all the animation scenes of the first twenty episodes! This was simply an impossible task. At this moment, Pan Hongsheng's body was trembling. He knew that these scenes had consumed much effort from this thin young man!
After the launch of "Thunder Sword", the number of female artists who harassed Pan Hongsheng was significantly reduced. Everyone thinks that he has changed his career to make cartoons since then.
For Pan Hongsheng now, the biggest problem is not the capital, not the buyer, but the dubbing issue.
Most of this cartoon has been completed, and the pilot has received good reviews, but the problem has also come. The only thing that has been criticized in the pilot is the dubbing issue.
This is a small detail, but not dealing with it well may drag down the quality of the entire film.
Dubbing actors are a special job. In the late 1980s, there were many outstanding dubbing actors. Pan Hongsheng still remembers the old movies he watched when he was a child. Those full and enthusiastic voices are the common Taiwanese accent of young dubbing actors.
For the current dubbing industry, the situation of not being able to connect with the young is even more serious than that of the comics and animations.
The voice actors are not like singers and movie stars, nor are they like those hosts and announcers. They are all standing in front of the stage. Although it is quite hard, maybe one of them will become popular if they are not careful.
What's the way out for these voice actors who are silently behind the scenes? Everyone knows Stephen Chow's voice actors back then, but they just don't know the name.
To be honest, if it weren't for that dubbing actor, Stephen Chow's film wouldn't be so vivid and classic.
Perhaps in other words, the voice actor raised the nonsensical attitude to a higher level.
This excellence can be seen from a small detail. When the dubbing actor was sick, he took a few months off due to illness, but Stephen Chow's film changed to a dubbing. In the end... everyone generally felt unfamiliar. The box office dropped directly by 20 percentage points.
A good voice actor is rare!
Pan Hongsheng's team searched for the best voice actors in the country, but they did not gain much, and only finalized some supporting roles.
However, the voices of the protagonist, the villain and the heroine are very demanding. Not to mention that Pan Hongsheng is not satisfied, even Yang Sifan is not satisfied: "If there is really no suitable candidate, I will be in love with myself!"
His words touched Pan Hongsheng: Although this kid doesn't talk much, his voice is quite magnetic. He is a little shy and hoarse when he is clear. Isn't it exactly the same as the protagonist's personality?
Sometimes, only the author can grasp the emotions of the protagonist in the work, and only he can truly understand what kind of personality and voice expressiveness of his protagonist.
Just as they finalized the dubbing of the male lead and were worried about dubbing the female lead and the villain, a heavyweight character took the initiative to join.
North American actor Snow Porter Kennedy visited in person and expressed his intention to become the voice actor of this cartoon.
Pan Hongsheng was very excited and held Xue Potter's hand tightly: "You... have come across the ocean to help us. I am so grateful!"
"Don't be so polite, I have another request..."
Snowport smiled sly: "I am trying to develop the Chinese market recently, but I have no foundation in popularity and popularity here. I don't know that I am. I want to use this movie to make my name sound!"
"That's absolutely fine!" Pan Hongsheng listened to the other party's voice: majestic, fierce, and cold, like a soul-catching messenger from the depths of hell.
This sound is so cool!
It's like the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the villain in the classic anime movie Super Warriors. Pan Hongsheng only watched an episode in his freshman year, and that sound made him never forget it in his life.
After signing with Xue Potter, Pan Hongsheng became more and more excited: the heroine's voice is left! Now she is the one who is the right one? Who is suitable?
Although Cheng Lu, these artists under her, looks pure and has a fresh temperament, her voice is ordinary and has no highlights.
Huang Fei, a female artist who became popular with her father, also had a very embarrassing voice.
After the search in our company failed, he began to look at singers, but now all these female singers like to use fake sounds and post-production to make records. Many of them sound good on the records, but once they see a real person, they will be killed instantly!
Zhang Bowen suggested going to see a good friend in China, but Pan Hongsheng directly smashed it in an ashtray: "Your sister's good friend! Now the five ministries and commissions have issued regulations, prohibiting the use of public funds to support celebrities! You will not see these weird clowns jumping at the right time!"
Chapter completed!
