Feature Shows Extravaganza

The team’s new work will be launched later this year!

There are two main reasons why it is set after the New Year. First, there was no casting, and the Super Electronic Cyborg was not warmed up.

The second is to avoid Eddie!

Everyone knows that Eddie will premiere on December 30th. Although Super Electronic Bioman is based in North America, Jiangchuan TV has also introduced it.

Even if the two are weekly dramas and daily dramas respectively, there is no direct competition for ratings. But after all, the two are the same type of tokusatsu drama, and the simultaneous broadcast will inevitably divert the discussion.

It’s better to separate!

Anyway, as a daily drama, Eddie airs two episodes a day and ends within a few weeks.

The filming is coming to an end!

Thanks to Meng Lang's efficient time management and the cooperation of the school students, the campus scene is about to be completed. At present, the focus of the crew's work is gradually shifting to post-production.

Special effects are the highlight!

As the famous Showa Almighty King, Eddie is not a partial subject, and his lighting skills are not inferior to others.

Especially the Shakusium Ray!

As Eddie's ultimate move, Shakusium's light is a typical L shaped colored light. It looks very simple and can be used with an old Austrian template.

Is it really?

The answer is no. If it were that simple, Mengzi wouldn't have a headache.

In fact, Shakusium's light is not an instant light, but has a certain forward-swinging action. Although often omitted, this charging action does exist.

There are also exclusive special effects for accumulating power!

This charging effect is omitted most of the time. Only in a few Tsubaraya Is Not Short of Money episodes do flash special effects appear near timers and hands.

If you’ve watched Heisei Okudu, you’ll know!

The thing about light charging depends entirely on your mood and actual situation. Sometimes it takes a few seconds to accumulate power, such as Tiga's classic stretching exercise. Sometimes, he is too lazy to accumulate power and just zooms in at the beginning.

The settings are very different!

In the setting given by Tsuburaya, for the same light, the charged version is more powerful and does more damage than the instant version.

Accumulating strength is one thing!

Eddie's Shakusum ray, on the other hand, also comes in different versions. Normal color Shakshum, abnormal Shakshum type B with infrared function, also known as Courage Power Ray.

And Shakusum counterattacks!

The same Shakusium light has derived different application versions, which adds a lot of difficulty to the later stage.

This is not the end.

Almighty King Eddie's light technique is by no means limited to Shaksium's light. There are probably dozens of different styles in total.

Of course, quantity does not mean difficulty.

A large part of Eddie's light skills can be directly applied to Lao Ao's template. Especially for Ace, it can be used just by changing the color.

Mengzi is so stingy!

In addition to Eddie's light, another major problem faced by post-production is the monster's light or skills.

In the works of the past few years, monster skills are generally based on breathing fire, emitting light and blowing bubbles.

Honestly, it doesn't look good!

Skills like fire-breathing pillars and fire-breathing balls are powerful, but you will get tired of them after watching them for a long time.

The monster skills are too monotonous, which is a very boring fact. You can't just do a few moves back and forth, right? You said it's very powerful, can you try another way?

In order to solve this problem, the special effects team has been thinking about what new skills should be given to the monsters?

poison gas? missile?

It can be used, but not too often.

Meng Lang's answer was, don't limit your thinking to a small circle like wind, fire, water, earth, thunder and light, and think bigger.

What about psychedelic skills?

You can introduce sound waves, gravity, and energy into the field of monster skills to create some monsters that are not very strong but have fancy skills.

For example, the monster Gazera!

This monster appeared in the 33rd episode of Eddie TV. The prototype is a monster model made by a boy named Kenichi. After being integrated into the monster's soul, it becomes a giant monster.

His skills are special!

It can absorb the opponent's attack and return it double. Whether it is punch, kick or Shakusum's light, it will be ineffective against it.

The same principle applies to leaf rot!

This special skill creates a special monster that greatly increases the audience's interest. Even years later, the monster can still be discussed with gusto.

This was Meng Lang's original intention.

I have to admit that although Eddie is the Almighty King of Showa, all statistics are quite average. But sometimes, average ≈ mediocrity!

To avoid mediocrity, let the audience remember the monsters in the show. Meng Lang plans to give Eddie a brand new characteristic - a variety of monster skills!

This system is very complex...

There are both sonic attack/interference skills, gravity manipulation skills, and unique psychedelic monsters that can confuse human minds and provoke humans to attack each other.

In Eddie's post-production, Meng Lang contributed a lot of new monster skill settings. Most of these are gimmicks.

A gimmick to grab the audience's attention!

It's the kind of embroidered pillow that sounds very strong but actually performs worse than spitting fire and water. All of them were suppressed by Eddie.

Of course, this is understandable!

After all, Eddie needs to maintain a winning rate in promotion battles every day. He cannot ruin TV's record of victory, which will only weaken the power of the monster's skills.

Ambush first!

When Eddie is successfully promoted to the next level, teach him a lesson when it comes time for the movie version or guest appearance.

Although these monster skills are like an embroidered pillow, they are of no use. But the relevant settings are very complete and can be copied when shooting new works.

It can be used after strengthening it!

In addition to special effects, there is also a crucial issue that needs to be solved in the entire post-production process.

Dubbing!

The dubbing mentioned here is not the dubbing of characters such as Shi Meng, but the dubbing of Ultraman and monsters.

Eddie is okay...

Mainly Julian's voice, and the voices of many monsters.

Julianne is the hardest to handle!

In the original setting, Julian should be less than 10,000 years old, slightly younger than Eddie of the same age.

Due to the special female timbre, the difference between the voices of girls and women is very obvious.

Then here comes the problem!

What age group does an Ultraman of Julian's age correspond to? Loli, girl, adult, aunt, old woman?

This is a very serious question!

If you make a mistake and fans come back to criticize you, how should Mengzi respond? You can't spread your hands, shake your index finger and say, No one knows Ultraman better than me!

Originally, the problem was quite simple!

By directly applying human body sound sources, the problem is easily solved.

But Meng Lang was confused and had to study the age conversion formula between Ultraman and humans. Frequently changing the dubbing, from a loli girl to a aunt, trying to choose the sound that I am most satisfied with.

As it turns out, he couldn’t choose!

Apart from the obvious incompatibility between the aunty and lolita voices, he really couldn't choose between the girly voice and the adult voice.

Flip a coin!

Ma Teng, who came to visit the class, really couldn't stand Mr. Meng's nagging, so he decided for him: Stop worrying, toss a coin, it will show a girl on the front and an adult on the back!

What if the coin stood up?

Then let me match it!
