The King of Crossover Entertainment

Yunfeng held his chin with his hand and stared at the computer monitor.

Wu Qiu and Nie Wenjun were observing his expression, seeing that he sometimes raised his eyebrows, sometimes frowned, and sometimes shook his head. He seemed to be dissatisfied with the first audio comic of "Wind and Cloud I", and they suddenly became nervous, just like those ten Five buckets are like carrying water, and they are moving up and down.

The video was only 18 minutes long and finished very quickly, but Yunfeng didn't say a word during the whole process.

When Wu Qiu and Nie Wenjun saw this, they did not dare to say anything and just waited aside.

After a while, Yunfeng changed his posture, crossed his arms over his chest, and said in a deep voice: "Call everyone in the studio over and have a small meeting."

Wu Qiu and Nie Wenjun looked at each other and both thought, it's over, the first audio comic of "Wind and Cloud I" must not have met the requirements.

The two said "ok" and hurried to call the others.

"Wu Qiu, what's going on?"

"Hurry over there."

…

"Brother Nie, is he the 'boss'? He is just like the rumors, young and handsome."

"Don't talk nonsense for a while."

…

"You said I want an autograph from the boss, is that okay?"

"At least not now. Look at the boss's face, it doesn't look good."

…

They walked in twos and threes, whispering to each other, towards where Yunfeng was.

Seeing everyone coming over, Yunfeng did not speak, but moved the mouse, clicked the replay button, and then raised his hand to signal them to take a look.

this……

what's the situation?

They are very familiar with this video, so why would they want to watch it again? No one understood the purpose of this, but no one asked.

After the video finished playing again, Yunfeng said, "Tell me how you feel after watching it."

"..."

They all looked at each other.

Feelings?

Evaluate yourself?

good?

not good?

After waiting for a while, no one spoke.

Yunfeng smiled gently and said, "Then let me change the question. Do you know why no one reads the audiobook?"

"I think it's because you can't control the listening speed. When you encounter something you didn't hear clearly, it's troublesome to go back and listen again."

"Yes, generally people use mobile phones to listen, and the experience of mobile phone players is poor, and drag-and-drop positioning is difficult."

"Also, generally listening to audiobooks is done in fragmented time, such as commuting to get off work, riding in the car, running, etc. The environment may be cluttered, so it is impossible to concentrate fully."

"And there are too few high-quality audiobooks, and the few audiobook websites don't update them every few months."

"I think it's an issue with the length of the audiobook. Take a novel or comic as an example. A chapter can take two or three minutes for fast reading and ten minutes for slow reading. It can be adapted into an audiobook, at least within ten minutes. More than five minutes.”

…

This question is much easier to answer than the previous one, and colleagues from two other studios said that Yunfeng is a very approachable and approachable person.

Therefore, they let go, spoke up, and expressed their opinions directly.

After hearing this, Yunfeng nodded slightly and said: "Problems with software experience can be adjusted by collecting readers' opinions, while other problems can be solved by improving the quality of audiobooks."

After a pause, he continued: "It's like watching anime or movies and TV shows. Some people fast forward the entire process, while others don't want to miss a single second. Why? The reason is very simple. There are no highlights and the food is tasteless. , it’s a pity to abandon it.”

This is indeed the case. When they go to those audiobook websites to learn scriptures, they basically force themselves to read and listen to them.

but……

How to create the highlights of audiobooks?

Seeing the puzzled expressions on their faces, Yunfeng knew that their understanding of audiobooks was not deep enough, and then said: "Whether it is a novel or a comic, it is based on the storyline and the author's writing and painting skills. , to feel the emotions in the words and pictures, but by listening, you can feel the richer emotions in the story through the rhythmic sounds and dynamic pictures.”

As he spoke, he suddenly became serious and said, "Let me tell you about some of the problems I discovered from the first audio comic of "Wind and Cloud I" I just read."

Hearing this, they all pricked up their ears and were ready to take notes. They would not look down on Yunfeng because of his young age.

Yunfeng looked at the man and woman on the left and said: "Let's talk about the dubbing first. Lu Xiaojia and Wei Xue's dubbing is very professional, and their voice control is very good. Whether it's a monologue or a man, woman, or child, each character has its own characteristics. ”

When Lu Xiaojia and Wei Xue heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the next "but" made both of their hearts skip a beat.

Just listen to Yunfeng say: "However, the emotional investment is not enough. To put it simply, the voice is varied and pleasant, but the sense of substitution is poor, and the personality, psychology, temperament and charm of the characters are not expressed."

When dubbing, the two of them simply adjusted their tone and intonation to reflect the differences between the characters, but ignored the expression of emotions.

For audiobooks, “sound” is particularly important. If there is no emotion, it is better to use AI.

In the final analysis, it is because there is not enough attention to the dubbing of audiobooks.

"If you want to express the personality, psychology, temperament and charm of the characters you are showing, you can't do it casually. You must be limited by the performance of the character, including movements, mouth shapes, and the time and space environment in the plot. It is best to be able to do There’s not even a trace of difference.”

On Yunfeng's side, he said eloquently: "Well, you can't do this simply by using external language skills. You must start with an in-depth analysis and understanding of the character, and understand the ups and downs of the voice in the original character's lines. The rhythm, emphasis, language habits and other aspects, as well as the specific scene, communication objects and other factors, must be carefully studied to find out the potential psychological basis behind each line of the character. Only in this way, Only in this way can the rhythm of language and inner rhythm of the character be completely consistent.”

Although Yunfeng has never been exposed to the dubbing industry, he has done his homework in this area.

Furthermore, dubbing and drawing comics have a lot in common, except that one uses sounds and the other uses pictures.

After hearing these words, Lu Xiaojia and Wei Xue looked at Yunfeng with a bit more admiration in their eyes.

Because every sentence is correct.

An excellent dubbing actor must have these abilities and qualities. Only the works produced in this way can be called masterpieces of dubbing art.

Lu Xiaojia said thoughtfully: "Boss, I understand."

Wei Xue said with flashing eyes: "Thank you, boss. I will pay attention to improving my abilities in related aspects in the future."

Neither of them is a first-line voice actor. Some of the animations and film and television dramas they participated in dubbing before were low-cost and not very demanding. Over time, they formed a habit of thinking "that's almost enough".

Yunfeng finally woke them both up.

So, next is the picture.

Yunfeng turned to look at Nie Wenjun and said: "The decomposition, reshaping, and transitions of comics are all very good, but the movement of the picture is not just the fade in and out, overlapping, wipe, etc. between pictures. You can also perform certain action processing on the basis of pictures, so that people or things can make simple actions, such as walking forward, pushing and closing doors, and the camera can also push, pull, and pan.”

Nie Wenjun used to make animations, but suddenly switched to audio books. He didn't expect so many at once.

The focus of audio comics is "sound", but it is not limited to sound. In order to enhance the appeal of the story, more work can be done on "movement".

Yunfeng continued: "It is obviously not enough to simply cut the pictures of the original comics into pieces and play them in the form of slides or PPT. We must consider all aspects of the work that are worth moving. Elements, even a punch thrown, a falling stone, or even a drop of crumbling blood, as long as it can set off the appeal, should be made as lifelike as possible. "

In terms of professional knowledge, Yunfeng is not as good as them, but in terms of knowledge and understanding of audiobooks, Yunfeng is far beyond them.

Then, Yunfeng talked about some details.

For example, onomatopoeia includes natural sounds, sounds of objects colliding, etc.

Another example is BGM, especially the BGM of the two protagonists Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng, including martial arts and literary dramas.

These can make the characters vivid and the plot realistic, making readers feel as if they are hearing their voices and being there.

At this point, Yunfeng's "Audiobook" class has come to an end.

How it can be changed in the end depends on them.
