Disaster Artist

Chapter 18 Communication and Cooperation
After thinking in front of the screen for a while, Bai Zhe didn't have any good ideas for the time being.

He took out an alcohol swab and cleaned and disinfected the ear canal, which would be funny in case of inflammation and infection.

Turning on Eden Music, after waiting for a long commercial break, he played something that normal people listen to to wash his ears.

Finally the material is out.

Bai Zhe exported the materials, simply classified them, and inspected them one by one.

The visual effects are very restored.Sooko's appearance, rust effect, and optical effects are all key factors.

Later, you can split the screen and make simple edits to use it.

In terms of touch, the sound wave vibration, temperature changes, and the burst of heat when the sun roars are generally recorded, and they still need to be adjusted and supplemented.Take your time.

There is very little material about the smell and taste dimensions, and it is not important, so skip it.

Next, is the most important and core sound effect material.Before Bai Zhe opened it, he put on the pain mask and lowered the volume to 20%.

The exported sound effect material is more than eight minutes long, and Sooko roars loudly in the exclusive version.

The sound effects material definitely had to be preserved.The core requirement of the creative commission is to "use Sooko as the subject matter". Deleting the most obvious elements of him will obviously deviate from the requirement.

But how to deal with and use sound effects is a problem he must solve.

If the original version is used directly in Dream Shadow, the effect will probably be "In the City of Stars, you can hear the screams of many living creatures, Cheese Rusty Sooko".

Bai Zhe's personal terminal has simple audio processing software to assist in the production of dream images.

He transcoded the material into an audio file and imported it into the program to start simple editing.

Click one-click denoising. Denoising is completed.

Click play and listen to the denoising effect. Bai Zhe almost stopped shaking.

The software very intelligently removed most of Sooko's roar, and the program recognized it as noise.

Undo the one-click denoising and select filter to separate the audio.

After the separation was completed, Bai Zhe began to manually denoise.Fortunately, the material was not too noisy and did not take too much time.

Select the equalizer and click Smart Balance to complete the adjustment.

Turn on the reverb effect and click to simulate the indoor ultra-clear effect. The adjustment is completed.

Finally, click one more button to modify the sound.

He had the feeling that he was dealing with special ingredients, and if he didn't handle them well, he would eat something bad.

Turning on the modified audio, he finally stopped frowning.

Sooko's roar is extremely personal and full of emotion.Whether it sounds good or not is one thing. Once you listen to it, you will never forget it, and the reverberation will linger for the rest of your life.

During the listening process, Bai Zhe was easily affected by the resonance and felt the anger, pain, loneliness and other emotions contained in it.

In addition, His roar seems to have its own special synthesizer effect, giving the listener a grand and far-reaching impact, as if it is wandering and disappearing among the stars in the universe.This effect is by no means achievable with ordinary technology.

But even with these advantages, the initially polished audio still wasn't usable and was essentially a chaotic roar with no meaning.

He continued to loop the single and listened to it over and over again. After listening for a long time, he actually heard a sense of rhythm.

Ouch-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Bai Zhe quickly turned off the audio, as he was going to start howling if this continued.He felt that his aesthetics had been strengthened.

It is indeed an unknown life form, so terrifying.

After struggling for several ten minutes, he vaguely grasped some inspiration.

Strong personal style, real and abundant emotions, and a sense of anger. If you rewrite the roar, add rhythm and melody, and combine it with some electronic synthesizer sound effects, can you achieve an effect similar to rock music?

Yes, there is no limit to the form or genre, and the form of the work does not need to be limited to dream shadows.Assuming that music is the core of the creation, the key is to have the ability to compose and arrange music, and to be able to draw materials from Sooko's roar and then convert it into a melody.

Secondly, you must have the ability to perform musical instruments, and it is best to use some electronic synthesizer effects.

Bai Zhe didn't have any of these abilities, so he could only press his forehead and get a headache.

It is impossible to learn and sell in 40 days, and it is impossible to put the dream of being a composer into your head.

If he wants to follow this line of thinking, he can only cooperate with others.

The commission requirements did not prohibit collaborative creation.He was completely unsure whether he could find anyone for help.

Moreover, finding people to cooperate will inevitably cause a lot of troubles, including issues of funds, risks, etc.

But Bai Zhe had a feeling that this was the correct creative idea.

There are so many types of works of art, each with its own unique way of expression, and its expressive power has its own advantages and disadvantages in different fields.

His ability to learn and create alone is extremely limited.And if a difficult commission arises later, it will be difficult for him to complete it alone.

According to the experience of the first commission, a 20-point spread requires nearly 6 views.If he reluctantly makes a dream movie, Bai Zhe doesn't have much confidence in achieving this goal, and it's even more unclear whether he can gain fascination.

The most annoying thing now is how he should communicate with Party A to confirm whether he can cooperate in creation.Please stop ranting and speak humanly.

Open the creative assistant, and there are only two icons on the empty interface. Click on it to commission the content, and there are no other buttons.

Bai Zhe stared and searched several times, but couldn't find any communication function.Does he have to rely on a dream to get through this? He really can't do this.

He clicked on the interface a little irritably, and a cursor suddenly appeared in the blank space in the center.The cursor flashes quietly to enter status.

who?Who asked you to design it this way?

Bai Zhe's eyelids jumped and he typed in the blank space of the screen [Can I collaborate with others to create? 】

Hit Enter and the entered characters disappear.No response.

Ten seconds pass. 1 minute passed. 5 minutes passed.

【Can】

A word popped up in the middle of the screen and disappeared after a few seconds.

[Can I entrust others to create the work? 】

Seeing this, Bai Zhe asked an excessive question.If he can subcontract, his operating space will be much larger.

This time, before waiting for 5 minutes, the fire icon suddenly exploded with a deafening roar.

If it doesn't work, it won't work. Why are you shouting so loudly?

I want to continue typing, but the cursor can no longer be found.Forget it, he has become somewhat accustomed to the willfulness of these special parties.

The key issues were confirmed, and Bai Zhe felt much more at ease.

The next step is to search for suitable partners.

First exclude high-end professional music studios and all famous musicians.Thousands of dollars of his budget were thrown at him without even making a sound.

The poverty level of the partner should be roughly the same as his, but he should also have a certain level of musical talent.

He searched and browsed on music platforms for a while and found a more suitable target group, underground bands in the border area.

There are many underground bands, and the music genre is mainly rock, but also folk, jazz, experimental electronics, etc.

These bands are usually made up of young music lovers and do not have contracts with record labels.They charge low appearance fees to perform in various venues, sometimes singing directly on the roadside. If they sing badly, they will be physically and mentally attacked.

Bai Zhe took a cursory look and found many interesting bands.With so many available, you can always find the right one.

　From today on, I will be a pigeon with manuscripts!I want to update on time!Gu Gu!
