Entertaining Children

Chapter 915 Now Making Background Music

"Really?" Teacher Zhao smiled, then showed a puzzled expression, and asked Sun Tingting, "Then why was Tingting not so good when we practiced yesterday? Tingting spent a lot of money on our dance. It took half a day to memorize all the movements!"

"It may be that the dance moves made up by the two teachers are relatively difficult, and Xiao Yao's two movements are relatively simple?" Sun Tingting said, "Also, it may be because Xiao Yao did the dance. Since childhood, he did it. Things, I always seem to remember things better than other people's things!"

"The last sentence is the key point, right?" Teacher Zhao smiled, "I remember clearly what Xiao Yao did? This is so affectionate!"

"Actually, I wasn't sure I remembered everything before I danced just now," Sun Tingting said, "But those movements are either the same as his, or opposite, or they have to cooperate with each other. When dancing with him, it seems very different. It came to mind naturally."

"There is a connection?" Lei Yu smiled wryly, "It sounds like you are still showing affection!"

"Ms. Zhao, after such a comparison, I suddenly feel that I am very bad!" Lei Yu turned to Mr. Zhao and said, "Should I give up the position of this partner to Xiao Yao?"

"If it wasn't for Xiao Yao's filming during this time, do you think it's your turn to be in this position?" Mr. Zhao said with a smile, "He has participated in regular competitions in the United States!"

Xiao Yao participated in the National Street Dance Competition in the United States. Although the American Hip-Hop Competition is also broadcast on TV, it is considered a TV program, but the contestants in that competition are basically professional dancers, there are no entertainment stars, and its nature is that professional dance competitions are more than variety shows.

Lei Yu and several other professional dancers in the show became famous because they participated in another dance talent TV show on Donghai Satellite TV in the past two years, and then became professional dancers of this show. From this point of view alone, it seems that Xiao Yao's experience in participating in dance competitions in the United States is not bad.

If Xiao Yao participated in the program, the program team might deliberately put him in the lineup of professional dancers to partner with Sun Tingting for the sake of program effect.

Of course, doing so is bound to generate some controversy. But first of all, this is a variety show, not a professional dance competition. As a variety show, I'm not too worried about this kind of controversy. Secondly, putting Xiao Yao in the professional dancer group enhanced his professionalism. It is actually a disadvantage for non-professional dancers to partner with non-professional dancers to compete with professional dancers and non-professional dancers. For other combinations of stars and professional dancers, they actually take advantage of it, and they may not necessarily oppose it fiercely.

"It's just a final, he used to be the choreographer of the team!" Lei Yu retorted, "Even if he doesn't film, he still takes the place of you two choreographers, not me, right?"

After all, Xiao Yao is an actor and singer. If he wants to participate in this show, he must be more likely to participate as a star guest like Sun Tingting.

"Teachers, don't make fun of me!" Xiao Yao stopped the teasing of the two, and asked the two choreographers, "What do the teachers think of the overall effect of the dance that Tingting and I just performed?"

"It looks pretty good," Teacher Li nodded and said, "But now there is a new problem!"

"I know, there's a problem with the background music!" Xiao Yao said, "The original background music was too short! But the current dance doesn't exceed the length of the song, so it should be fine to cut it again!"

"Well, the background music must be re-cut," Teacher Li said, "but there is still one problem. I think there are a few parts of the hip-hop movement in front of you that do not match the music so perfectly."

"Oh?" Xiao Yao looked at Mr. Li and said, "You think the hip-hop moves don't match the music, so you want to change the song?"

"It's not about changing the song!" Mr. Li shook his head and said, "There is no problem with the rhythm of the hip-hop dance moves, and it matches the rhythm of this song. It's just that I think the hip-hop dance moves in front of you are more powerful. There are some freeze-frame movements, and the background music has always been relatively gentle,

It is slightly less expressive in this regard. "

Xiao Yao thought about it and nodded.

Although the hip-hop movements designed are softer and smoother, matching the rhythm of the whole song, but there are some short-term freeze-frame movements in the middle, which should be better matched with some drumbeats in the music, and The opening part of the original version of the song does not accompany the drum beats that represent these freeze-frame movements.

"This is easy!" Xiao Yao raised his head and said, "This song originally didn't have a prelude. I can make a melody and put it in front as a prelude. This prelude is specially made for that street dance movement, and there will be a song in the arrangement. Some drumming with those freeze-frame moves."

"Also," at this point, Xiao Yao thought of the next part of the movement, and continued, "I can also write another melody to match the latter part of the gesture dance, and put it in the middle of the song, trying to make it feel consistent. There will be a sense of disharmony. In this way, the music and lyrics matched with your original dance moves will not need to be changed, and it will be more convenient to practice."

"Write two more melodies? When can I write them?" Teacher Li asked, "Tingting and the others will record this round of the official competition tomorrow night, and they will have a stage rehearsal tomorrow afternoon."

"It's okay, at worst, we can practice all morning again tomorrow morning!" Teacher Zhao said, "With Xiao Yao's ability, he can definitely write it in one night, right?"

"In order to ensure the state of the official competition tomorrow night, there is no practice plan tomorrow morning." Sun Tingting whispered to Xiao Yao, "The main consideration is physical fitness!"

"Don't wait until tomorrow!" Xiao Yao said, "It's almost noon now, you must have a break at noon, right? I can make it during the lunch break, and you can use it when you practice in the afternoon!"

"Can it be made at noon?" Teacher Li looked at Xiao Yao and asked.

"Yes!" Xiao Yao nodded.

"But we don't have a band player in this program, not even a musical instrument. What do you do?" Teacher Li asked.

This program is a dance program. Although dance is also related to music, it is not the focus in this program. The background music for the contestants is prepared in advance, and all of them are accompanied by accompaniment. There is no live band in the program.

"You can do it on the computer!" Xiao Yao said, suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Too bad, I didn't bring my computer!"

"Boss, can I drive you back to get it now?" Ye Qingyu said.

"It's so far away from the hotel, how long does it take you to come and go?" Xiao Yao said, "When you come back, the lunch break will be over!"

"Does it only need a computer?" Director Chen Sheng said, "Our program team has a computer!"

"It's not just any computer." Xiao Yao said, "I need to use very professional music software. Generally, if you are not a professional music creator, you will not have those software on your computer. Even if you download it from the Internet now, download and install it , Setting up, and debugging all these will take time, and it is estimated that it will still take a long time."

"That's probably not." Chen Sheng said, "We don't have a recording studio in this studio, and there are no permanent musicians in the program group."

Although the program team will also contact some musicians to help the contestants prepare the music for the dance, but that is basically before starting practice, and the program team does not need to invite musicians to the recording location of the program.

"Then what should we do?" Lei Yu asked, "Still have to wait until tomorrow?"

"No, I have a solution!" Xiao Yao said, "Although there is no band or recording studio for this show, there is one in this photography base. I will rent a recording studio to do it at noon!"

This is a large-scale photography base. There are more than a dozen studios with different functions. Some of them meet the needs of variety show shooting and recording, while others are set up to meet the special effects shooting of film and television works. There are also music programs in variety shows, and naturally there are studios with recording studios in this photography base to meet the recording needs of such programs.

"Are you sure there are?" Chen Sheng asked.

Generally, the recording of a variety show only needs to use one or two studios. This base is not owned by Shencheng TV Station. The program team is only here to record programs, and they only need to care about the studio they use. It is normal that they don't have the energy to care about the facilities of other studios in the base.

"Of course I'm sure!" Xiao Yao nodded and said, "It's in Shed No. 6! I came here to participate in another program before, and I found out when I was wandering around the base."

Another program that Xiao Yao came here to participate in before was naturally "The Character of an Actor". That show was not a music show, and it didn’t use a recording studio, but that time Xiao Yao stayed here for two days, and got up the next morning to go to the base to observe whether the students had done morning work, and basically visited the entire photography base up.

Although Xiao Yao only visited the open-air public area and did not enter every studio, there are some introductions of the facilities outside some studios, which Xiao Yao has seen before. Xiao Yao is a musician, so he naturally remembered the studio number of the recording studio.

"All right, I'll ask someone to contact the base management office to help you rent the recording studio in that studio!" Chen Sheng said immediately, "Wait a minute!"

"Director Chen, is your program group going to pay me an appearance fee?" Xiao Yao asked.

"What?" Chen Sheng asked with some doubts.

"This visit is not my commercial announcement, it's my private act. It just happens to happen that you guys are filming." Xiao Yao said, "Since it's a private event, it's better for me to come forward to rent the recording studio myself! If If your program team rents it for me, then the nature of my visit will change, and I will ask you for an appearance fee!"

"If you change, you will change. If you pay the show fee, you will pay!" Chen Sheng laughed, "It's not like our program team can't afford it!"

"But in this way, the nature of my visit to the class is different in someone's eyes!" Xiao Yao looked at Sun Tingting and said, "I think the gain is not worth the loss! So forget it, I will rent it myself!"

"Hey~" Everyone followed Xiao Yao's eyes and immediately understood, laughing and hissing.

Chen Sheng said with a smile: "Okay then! We will fulfill you, don't be such a villain!"

"Then I'll go now!" Xiao Yao said to the people in the dance practice room, "Practice slowly."

"Qingyu, follow me!" Xiao Yao said to the two assistants standing by the wall, "Xiao Ran, Qingyu wants to help me record, you can send us two lunch boxes later!"

"Mr. Xiao, it's definitely okay for you to ask me to work, but I don't think it's me who will deliver your meals later!" Ding Ran laughed, "Don't say you can't help me, it's me Can't steal from others!"

"Ding Ran!" Sun Tingting stared at Ding Ran.

"What? You won't go for a while?" Ding Ran laughed.

"It's almost noon now, let's practice here in the morning and watch Xiao Yao's recording together?" Mr. Zhao suggested.

"No need!" Sun Tingting said, "It's not yet the end time we set, let's practice for a while, Xiao Yao's recording is nothing interesting!"

"You've seen it a lot, but none of us have seen it!" Teacher Zhao laughed.

"I still have to go to the management office to go through the formalities of renting a recording studio." Xiao Yao said, "Are so many of you going to the management office with me? Or are you going to stand outside Studio 6? There are more than 6 recording studios here. It’s in shed No. 6. I don’t know if anyone is using shed 6. I don’t necessarily want to rent shed 6. I’ll send Ding Ran a message when I’m done. If you want to go, it’s not too late.”

"Okay, okay, listen to you!" Teacher Zhao laughed.

Xiao Yao took Ye Qingyu to leave, and went to the management office of the photography base to talk to the relevant person in charge about renting a recording studio. There is a vacant recording studio in the photography base. Xiao Yao paid the price and recorded by himself. There is no need for the base to find a sound engineer and other staff for him. Naturally, there is no problem.

The recording studio in Studio 6 was idle, and it was not far from the studio where Sun Tingting and others were located. Before talking about Studio 6, Xiao Yao rented the recording studio in Studio 6.

After the base staff led them down to the recording studio, Xiao Yao asked Ye Qingyu to send a message to Ding Ran, observed and understood the equipment in the recording studio by himself, and then started working.

It is not difficult for Xiao Yao to pair the two dance moves with two music melodies. The slightly difficult thing is that the two music melodies must be connected with the song, so that it cannot sound inconsistent.

But this is only a little difficult for Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao remembered many classic songs and compositions from his previous life, and he had already developed the ability to create music in this life. Xiao Yao was very confident in completing this task in about two hours during his lunch break.

When Xiao Yao left the dance practice room, he didn't take away the original background music of Sun Tingting and others, and this was not a problem. You can learn that dance after watching it once, and Xiao Yao knows how the background music is cut based on the full version of the song after listening to it once. Xiao Yao downloaded the full version of the song's audio source from the Internet, imported it into the equipment in the recording studio, edited it as usual, and added two new sections he made.

The computer in the recording studio has the professional recording software that Xiao Yao needs, but since the recording studio has all kinds of instruments, Xiao Yao naturally does not need computer software for simulation. With Ye Qingyu helping to operate the recording equipment, Xiao Yao went to the recording room to perform by himself, and the recording efficiency was not low.

After about half an hour, Xiao Yao recorded the new prelude at the beginning. When Xiao Yao added this passage to the sound source material, Sun Tingting and others happened to be there too.

Xiao Yao turned his head and took a look, and found that Sun Tingting was indeed carrying a big paper bag.

"Have you eaten?" Xiao Yao asked.

It was only half an hour, and Xiao Yao felt that Sun Tingting didn't look like she came back after dinner.

"No!" Sun Tingting shook her head, and put the paper bag on the coffee table in the operating room, "I'll eat with you!"

"Qingyu," Sun Tingting said to Ye Qingyu again, "I only brought two lunches, not yours! Go out to eat with Xiao Ran, and come back after eating. I'll help Xiao Yao record later!"

Ye Qingyu only helped Xiao Yao operate the start and pause of the recording equipment, and Xiao Yao did the post-processing by himself. Sun Tingting spent a lot of time with Xiao Yao in Xiao Yao's recording studio, and she had already learned the simple operation of recording equipment from Xiao Yao.

"Don't rest at noon, aren't you tired?" Xiao Yao asked Sun Tingting.

"I'm not tired!" Sun Tingting said, "Dancing in the morning is physically exhausting. You just sit in front of the console and push a few buttons, but you don't need much effort. It's just a change of mind and a rest."

"Okay, then you can help me record!" Xiao Yao nodded.

"Hey, it's good to stay together for a while longer!" Teacher Zhao laughed, "It really is the state of a young couple in love."

"Mr. Zhao, the first paragraph is ready, do you want to listen to it?" Xiao Yao picked up a pair of earphones and handed them to Teacher Zhao, and changed the subject accordingly.

"The first paragraph is done so quickly!" Mr. Zhao walked over with great interest.

"Why is there no sound?" Teacher Zhao put the earphones on his head, and asked with some doubts.

"It's not open yet!" Xiao Yao laughed.

"Boss, you eat first, I'll come!" Ye Qingyu walked over and said, "The two choreographers haven't eaten yet, Xiao Ran and I will go with the two teachers in a while!"

"Okay!" Xiao Yao got up and gave Ye Qingyu the seat in front of the console, and sat on the sofa with Sun Tingting, taking food out of the paper bag.

The newly added piece of music was not long, and it didn't take long for the two choreographers and Lei Yu to listen to it in turn.

"It feels good!" Teacher Zhao smiled at Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting who were eating on the sofa, "I won't bother you to eat, we are going to eat too, see you in the dance practice room this afternoon!"
