Chapter 47 Write it yourself
After returning to Tokyo for two days, Kazuki Akiyama spent most of his time in the recording studio, and stayed up all night last night.

Walked out of the recording studio a little tired, and just sat down on the sofa, Ishida Takumi had already walked over with a glass of grapefruit honey water.

Lemon chrysanthemum honey water, he really couldn't drink it, and finally accepted grapefruit honey water reluctantly. There was no way to maintain his voice, and he didn't want to have to drop the key after singing in a few years.

Masao Akashi was responsible for the arrangement of this single. The master and apprentice had already cooperated once, and this time it was even more handy, and the progress was much faster.

It is worth mentioning that Kazuki Akiyama also put forward some of his own opinions in this arrangement. After all, the selection of songs has been imprinted in his mind. After studying with Masao Akashi for so long, he can also try to raise some of his own opinions on the arrangement. view.

When I was arranging the music, I couldn't help but go up and try it out. I played the amateur-level piano in the training class in my previous life.After he finished playing, Akashi Masao just said that if he wants to perform on stage, he still needs to practice hard.

He also thinks that he needs to practice a bit, anyway, he still has a little foundation, it's faster than learning a musical instrument again, and as a singer-songwriter who only knows one musical instrument, it's really shabby.

After drinking the grapefruit honey water, he rested in a half-lying position on the sofa before getting up and walking towards the control room.

There, Akashi Masao and the recording studio Kitahara were discussing some details in the recording just now, picking out some controversial places to see if they needed to be re-corrected.

Nagato Taiyuki is the producer of this single in name, but in fact he doesn’t come here often, and he doesn’t have the same style as the producer.

So Kazuki Akiyama, as a singer, can also participate in the production of his own single. To be honest, from this aspect alone, Being is already a pretty good choice for a singer-songwriter.

After confirming with Akashi Masao and the others what to pay attention to and modify next, Kazuki Akiyama looked at the time and it was close to six o'clock in the morning, and he was already a little hungry after a busy night.

Call Ishida Takumi, "Takumi-kun, help me to buy some breakfast, see how many people are still in the recording studio, prepare one for everyone."

Ishida Takumi nodded, turned and left, he was not in a good spirit after staying up all night.In the past two days, Ishida Takumi has been helping Kazuki Akiyama because he has been rushing to meet the construction deadline.

Bei Yuanwen from the recording studio said with a smile, "Looks like it's thanks to Akiyama-kun."

"Thanks to your care, I stayed up all night with me." Kazuki Akiyama thanked very politely.

More than half an hour later, Ishida Takumi came back with a bento, and every staff member in the recording studio distributed a copy. Kazuki Akiyama also chatted and laughed with them. After breakfast, he went on to record the last edited place.

By the time Kazuki Akiyama left the recording studio, the sky had already brightened.Stretching freely, I felt a lot more relaxed.

The recording of the two songs has basically ended, and the recorded tracks still need to be sent to the mix, and there is still a short period of time before they are actually made into a master tape.

Take advantage of this period to shoot some promotional covers and PVs.

That's right, it's a PV. This time Nagato is lucky enough to have a rare fortune. He is going to shoot a PV for this single, and it will be released on TV stations at that time to promote the song.

You must know that according to Being's frugal style, most of the time there are only some promotional photos, as for the song's MV, it basically does not exist.

Either some tidbits taken during the recording process, or simply some photo PPTs, let’s put it up, that’s how Kazuki Akiyama’s last single was handled.

So far, only a few singers such as ZARD have shot MVs. This time, Nagato Daxing also saw that Kazuki Akiyama's single performed well, so he specially prepared to shoot a PV for him to promote the song.

As for how to shoot the PV and what the content is, I'm sorry he doesn't know, because Being hasn't even released a shooting charter until now.

Akiyama Kazuki seriously doubted whether Nagato Taiyuki had come up with this on the spur of the moment, so that he didn't do any preparations.

No way, after two days of rest, Kazuki Akiyama pondered whether he should simply write a plot outline or a short story as a PV script.

Because if I delay until the single is almost ready and the PV has not yet been released, maybe I just shoot some extras and put it up, then it will really waste the great opportunity of the TV station's promotion.

As soon as he said it, Kazuki Akiyama got up, walked to the cushion in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and sat down, found a piece of white paper and spread it on the small desk in front of him, and began to think about how to design the plot of the PV, although it was only a short one or two minutes , but a brief vignette should suffice.

Since moving to Yoyogi Uehara, Akiyama Kazuki often thinks and records some thoughts in his mind in front of the French window of the bedroom.For this reason, he specially bought a cushion about the size of a carpet and spread it in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, and then put a short Japanese-style desk and a lazy sofa on it.

Especially on such a sunny morning, half lying on the sofa, the sun covering the cushions and desk in front of me, and the white curtains occasionally blown by the wind, it is indescribably comfortable.

Because the title single is "Encounter", the first thing that comes to mind from the word is what it will be like for two people who have not reunited for a long time to meet again.

A man and a woman in the university have a good impression of each other. They once walked aimlessly along the railway line together, and once cuddled up to each other on a bench by the roadside to watch the sunset. She held it, but they never spoke to each other.

With the arrival of the graduation season, this relationship that has not yet blossomed and borne fruit has ended without a problem due to the pressure of employment, and each of them has drifted away. Perhaps in each other's hearts, they don't know whether this is love.

Then one afternoon, when you were walking, you accidentally raised your head and looked ahead, the woman who has always been in the depths of your memory, but never actively remembered, is also walking towards you.Facing each other's surprised eyes, the memory opened up, and the picture was frozen.

As for the story after the encounter, Kazuki Akiyama did not continue to write, maybe he nodded and greeted "Long time no see" flatly, maybe he wanted to speak and stopped but passed by again without a word, or continued Front edge, who can tell?
In just one or two minutes, it only needs to express the general artistic conception clearly, and it is enough to meet the shooting needs of the PV. Putting away the manuscript paper, Kazuki Akiyama is going to discuss this PV with Nagato Taiyuki.

If Being didn't have any specific shooting content, then he planned to show what he wrote to Taiyuki Nagato, which is considered a self-recommendation.

　Thank you for your recommendation and support, and thank you Lieyan Qingfeng for your rewards!
