Tighten my broker

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

Everything from the outside world can't disturb Luo Yang who is already immersed in his work, and Wei Ran didn't discuss the situation outside with him at this time, so Luo Yang is now wholeheartedly immersed in his own world.

"There are nine minutes and six seconds in total. This is the longest MV work I have ever recorded, and it is also the longest song I have seen in Lingyun Studio. Fortunately, the MV of this song does not require There are too many screen changes, otherwise we would have to shoot this MV video for a long time."

Lu Jing rubbed his pantothenic arm, and said such a long string of words, which was rare.

Originally, he only paid attention to the tune and lyrics, and didn’t pay too much attention to the duration of the song. It was only when he was shooting the video that he noticed the problem of duration, and then he understood why his boss said to record this song The soundtrack takes a long time.

It turns out that the pit is here.

"Thank you." Luo Yang smiled and patted Lu Jing's shoulder, but Lu Jing turned his head away uncharacteristically.

"Although your laughter is very kind, but looking at your face now, I always have a strange feeling, so you should stand aside with a blank face!"

Luo Yang's expression froze.

Turning his head to look at himself in the mirror, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He never expected that this makeup would have such a good effect on his face, even if he looked at himself now There is an eerie feeling.

The thick black covers the position above the cheekbones below the eyebrows, and the entire eye makeup is slightly raised at the end of the eyebrows, which makes people feel like a smile is not a smile. The paleness is the background color of the deceased, and now it appears in the on him.

The nose was also painted black, and it was the same black as the skull hollow nasal cavity.

The full mouth of teeth in perspective drawing is exposed, and it may be because of the sharp edges and corners of his face, so this big mouth always gives people a weird appearance of slightly hooking the corners of the lips.

Then all black and white perspective paintings starting from the lower jaw are messy and real,

Most importantly, due to the needs of shooting, his exposed hands were treated with such a perspective drawing method. The whole person looks like a skeleton, but the paleness makes people know that it is just painted on As above, it has achieved real joints.

When this makeup was presented in front of his eyes, Luo Yang lamented that Lu Jing's painting skills are really good, but also sweated for himself.

Now the makeup without black and white treatment is already like this, Luo Yang can't imagine what it will look like when the video is processed with black and white light and shadow.

Well, it is estimated that it should be unsuitable for all ages.

"Is there anything else to make up?" Luo Yang looked at Lu Jing.

Lu Jing shook his head and said, "I've already finished the reshoots, and it's almost over. Just leave the rest of the work to me. You can go to Teacher Wang to have a look for a while, but first. Wash off your makeup before going over."

Lu Jing also made a special exhortation, very serious.

Luo Yang pursed his lips, then nodded helplessly.

He also felt that it was best for him to change his clothes and remove the makeup now, but it would take a lot of time to remove the makeup, so he should hurry up.

After half an hour.

After returning to his original appearance, Luo Yang adjusted his breathing and walked towards the recording studio where Teacher Wang Qing was.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Wang Qing raised his head and said, "The soundtrack has been finished, but there are still some details that need to be improved, so you go to the side to adjust your state first."

Luo Yang also knew that Wang Qing was a person who strives for perfection, so he sat down beside him.

For this song, he still really needs time to adjust his emotions, otherwise he would definitely not be able to sing that feeling.

Whether it is acting or singing, if you want to present a work in a perfect state, your sense of integration is very important. Only when you have that kind of emotion in your heart can you freely express what you want to express presented.

The songs of eternal sleep always have high requirements for the singer, because the emotions he expresses are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

And his Va(r)nitas, vanitas... (...omniavanitas) is even more depressing.

Although Eternal Sleep is a band, there has been only one person since a long time ago. He is Anna Varney, a musician born in Germany.

This is a person who erected a milestone in Luo Yang's heart.

Someone once commented on his music - "It's darker than darkness. You have to have one foot in a grave and the other in a madhouse to hear music like that."

Luo Yang knew his story well.

A long time ago, there was a young man named Varmey, we will call him Varney for the time being. He was poor and had no money to buy the most basic instruments and equipment, but he still insisted on creating music and using his brain.

Until one day, the tape demo he created was finally recognized by the record company, but he suddenly disappeared without a trace and was replaced by SoporAeternus.

SoporAeternus, in German, means eternal sleep or death sleep, and refers to those lonely ghosts who wander outside the gates of hell and have not been taken in. Their bodies have long since decayed, but their souls still have no destination, so they can only live in the desert. In the night, singing those sad songs, they are called shadow performers, and this band has such a name, and it also sets its tone.

The music they released is so desolate and beautiful that it doesn't seem to come from the world. It makes people feel a kind of despair from the bottom of their hearts. No one can do this, only shadow performers.

"Actually, although I exist in this real world as a physical body, my soul has been living in another world, which is the world of shadow performers, and I am with them." Anna Varney once said .

In his view, shadow performers are a group of dead people who help it, enlighten it, and comfort it.

The reason why it is used here is that in the past, Vani stubbornly believed that it was the only androgynous creature in the world. Vani has always been affected by severe mental symptoms and bad emotions. As a man, he yearned to become a woman—— This thought has always troubled him.

People don't understand him, laugh at him, but he doesn't care anymore.

He has suffered enough damage.

However, Varney is not alone, he has a spiritual friend - The Ensemble of Shadows, an illusory companion, he and his shadow companion create music together, and even said: He did not create, but only received the works of shadows .

"Music pervades the universe," he said.

He has always used his way to express his inner feelings and his painful past in the hidden language of the music, but his lyrics are usually difficult for the audience to understand, and it is for this reason that Varney is only superficially People accept it, but it is difficult to know what kind of music the music is about and the story behind the music.

He once said in an interview: "I don't have the habit of explaining the meaning of the lyrics, and I don't even want to explain at all... Although I hope that I can let people face their true selves through music, or understand their hearts more deeply. These hints allow them to understand the real world, or to release the repressed spiritual world."

"But that's impossible because people are always self-righteous, and they can never get rid of the traditional ideas that are ingrained in their heads."

Anna has always adhered to his own set of idealist philosophical views. He believes that everything in the universe is interconnected, including illusion and reality.

So sometimes, Luo Yang doesn't feel that this is a patient suffering from a serious mental illness, but just a strange person with his own independent worldview.

Anna Varney is such a person, and all his emotions are hidden in his singing voice, as well as his unique singing style, which makes his songs not generally difficult to sing, especially this song More than one language was involved, and Luo Yang felt that he had to be in the best state to sing this song so as not to humiliate it.

Although it was just a tribute, Luo Yang still wanted to sing this song perfectly, instead of just trying to make a splash for his own sake.

About half an hour later, Wang Qing greeted Luo Yang who was sitting on the side, indicating that he could start.

Luo Yang got up and walked over.

"The prelude of this song is very long, but it's not a bad thing. When you sing, you must seize the long prelude time to brew all the emotions in place, and then express it in your own way. Don't worry. , we can take our time."

Wang Qing patted Luo Yang on the shoulder and gave him proper instructions.

He has never produced this type of song before. After all, this type of song is rare in China, and because it involves some religious elements, not many people in China touch it.

Although Wang Qing didn't know why Luo Yang chose to sing and record the song "Eternal Sleep", he was completely sure of the difficulty of this song, so he understood that if he wanted to interpret this song perfectly, it would not be a one-time job. A thing that is too simple.

Wang Qing also recorded songs for Luo Yang before, and he also knew that Luo Yang had a good foundation, but this song is different, its singing style and style are completely polarized from the songs Luo Yang recorded before, so Wang Qing also did a good job. I plan to record more times.

"Yes, Teacher Wang, I understand." Luo Yang nodded to Wang Qing.
