Chicago 1990

In the afternoon, Morgan left Highland Park with his mother and returned to New York. Mariah Carey had a show in person. He was naturally unhappy and didn't want to stay in Chicago for more than one night, but their mother still approved the marriage, so The only problem now is the marriage date.

"Ineverwould\', I\'dbeherewritingthissong, ButhereIam, nexttoyou, TheskyissoblueinMalibu..."

Mariah Carey was relieved, she quickly became optimistic. In the evening, accompanied by the splashing shower, she happily sang the malibu given to her by Song Ya, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

"How? Honey?"

After singing a song, wrapping her towel around at random, she cheerfully jumped into the arms of her fiance who was half lying on the bed talking on the phone.

"Okay..." Song Ya gestured to the microphone, "I'll go, um... which scenes need to be dubbed? Ok... I see, see you at Universal Studios."

Hung up the phone, "You sing wonderfully." He put his arm around her backhand to compliment.

"This song has too much bass..." she complained.

The original female singer's voice is a bit hoarse, and it's not the Vocal route. "No way, I wrote it for you when I was inspired by Mr. Gefen's private beach." The thick face said.

"I like it very much, the lyrics are so sweet?" She is very useful, "Are you really attached to me so much?"

"of course."

Apocalypse can't come without a voice, it is indeed my own voice from this perspective.

She happily rubbed her face on Song Ya's chest, "Who was calling just now?"

"Old Larry, I'm going to Los Angeles to make up some dubbing in two days. By the way, see how they cut my movie. Will you accompany me?"

I still use live radio for most of my life, but during the editing process, I always find that the recording effect of a small part of the passage is not good, or the old Larry wants to adjust the line.

"Don't you want to throw me away..."

She is now an annoying little fairy. The next day, the two arrived at the deep-sea recording studio together to work on the final recording of the original soundtrack.

This is a hip-hop and rhythm and blues song with a reggae style. Song Ya naturally does not copy the original singer’s Caribbean accent, but retains the other’s “hot mouth” way of speaking, so it will be very similar to his previous singing style. Big difference.

Mariah Carey, who focused on her fiancé, took the initiative to take the initiative to do a choreography, and followed into the recording studio.

"Haha, dear, you are a good Latino in this way."

Her acumen to music is top-notch, and she can hear it in one ear when Song Ya sings the first two sentences. Native Latin speakers often use this tune in English.

"Hey, the harmony singer over there, please pay attention to your identity and don't interfere with the lead singer!" Song Ya pretended to make a face and made a joke.

"Sorry, big singer." She squeezed her throat to cooperate with the role playing.

"Remember the past? Mimi, when recording IStillBelieve, it was the same as today. You helped me make harmony."

Since it was a chorus song for men and women, Brenda, who was seriously in arrears with emotional intelligence, was also in the recording studio. She suddenly inserted the flirtatious flirtation between the two, rehearsing Mariah Carey's past as a harmony singer before she became popular.

"Of course I remember, I miss that time very much..."

Mariah Carey still held her throat, and rolled her eyes when Brenda turned her head back.

Song Ya shook his head and laughed. The song was recorded. He found an opportunity to ask Linda, "Have you and your husband emphasized to Brenda? I don't want her to reveal too much in front of the media after her song. It’s enough to mention the past occasionally when you are a stalker, stir up some heat, and then add points for Mimi's repaying kindness."

"Don't worry, Brenda is really not very clever, but in any case he was once packaged as a female singer, knowing what can be said and what cannot be said."

Linda replied: "You gave her the chance to be envied by the entire music circle. She is grateful to you."

"That's good."

In recognition of this incident, he and Mariah Carey rushed to Los Angeles by private jet, and met with Larry and others in a professional studio in Universal Studios to watch the rough cut version.

All the original soundtrack songs have been recorded, and Dion Wilson will send it over after the event.

"A bit rough."

After watching the three-hour movie, the editor opened the curtains, and Song Ya squinted and said nonsense. Of course, the rough cut version was very rough and retained too much material, resulting in a slow pace of the whole movie. Mariah Carey of Taoist Shadows has fallen asleep in her arms.

In order to facilitate the viewing of the movie for him and other related personnel present, a live audio track without post-processing was added during playback.

The tones between the segments of the film were not unified in the post-grading process. The old Larry was absolutely mainstream when he was shooting the MV, but in this film he used a lot of post-modern style composition that he used to splice the film, and was responsible. The film style of Zach Schneider in the location group is relatively avant-garde. Although he was successfully suppressed by the old Larry, he can still see a touch of comic style in some of the location pictures.

Other aspects are okay. Basically, this movie will be much more refined than the original version. For example, when the male protagonist goes to an art school for the first time in the original version, the crowded and chaotic scenes like public middle schools will no longer appear. Replaced by corridors that really fit the good art school, those sculptures and oil paintings, and students who dress and behave more'artistically'...

The overall plot did not deviate too much from Song Ya's script. Several of the more exciting passages in the original version have been cut to see the prototype.

"One hundred minutes."

The head of Universal Distribution, sitting in the back row of the viewing room, said: "This movie cannot last more than 100 minutes, otherwise the theater will quit and it will affect the viewing experience."

"OK."

Old Larry agreed in an uneasy manner. As a director, every frame he shoots is like his child, so it would be a difficult process for him to discard those clips. This is also Hollywood has always been very careful to finally The reason why the editing rights are entrusted to the director himself is that it is really impossible to mess around with the director according to his own ideas. There are too many lessons.

According to Amperin Entertainment's plan, when the final version was about to be cut out, the old Larry would basically evade and hand everything over to the editor and Universal who was responsible for the distribution.

"The second girl and her boyfriend have a lot of scenes and need to be cut drastically. The plot of their line in this drama is irrelevant."

Catherine's husband is also there, Catherine prefers production and management, he prefers to release and grasp the general direction, "What do you think of APLUS?"

"can."

Song Ya nodded. The plot line is probably the relationship development between the second female role played by Taraji and Terrence Howard, plus the two story lines of the heroine’s little white-faced boyfriend stealing Terrence Howard’s song. This is the point of the original movie. It's okay, I probably explained it clearly with a few pages, but old Larry added some more clear and logical scenes, "We only need..."

So he also made some comments based on the relevant fragments in the original movie.

"I think it can."

Catherine's husband looked at him unexpectedly, "APLUS, you really considered it thoroughly."

"Okay." Old Larry discussed a few words with the editor, and basically accepted Song Ya's suggestion.

"The host family scene of the second boy will also be cut drastically." Another person from Universal said.

This editing meeting has been going on for a long time, and the main keynote is where to cut and not to keep everything. Old Larry was better at talking at first, but then suddenly couldn't hold back, he opened his mouth and argued with the people from Universal.

"What do you think of APLUS?" The person in charge of Universal Distribution also asked Song Ya again without quarreling with him.

"Our movie must compress the viewing time, Larry." Song Ya advised Larry. The original film is exactly one hundred minutes, and the rhythm is not too tight. "For a commercial film with ten million investment, the theater Don’t take the risk of letting the audience sit in the theater for more than two hours. Too long will definitely affect the filming.”

"I know I know."

Old Larry took off his glasses, "Although this movie is not an art or mainstream commercial blockbuster, it has many elements, such as singing and dancing, love, inspiration, sports..."

"Don't exercise, don't exercise."

The people at Universal found another point that can be cut off, "APLUS and the second male baseball scene should also be compressed. It is enough to confess the characters of the two."

"There can be more singing and dancing. People like to watch lively singing and dancing. APLUS dances very beautifully~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The heroine has very good skills, but the expressiveness is actually not as good as APLUS..." Catherine's husband also saw Amy's dance performance Regarding strength, although she has worked very hard, "the heroine's body can be portrayed in more shots, but it should not affect the classification."

Amy's body is better than that of the original heroine, her chest is no smaller than the original heroine, her waist is thinner, and her clothes are more upscale. The frontal shots of certain dancers after dancing have slight bumps, which is more seductive.

"First is singing and dancing, then love, and finally inspiration, sports? Go to hell." The head of universal distribution complained: "There are too many sports inspirational films these days. There is a baseball angel at the same time in July. We are not here. Compared with it above."

"We are the only one of the song and dance genre, right?" Song Ya asked.

"Yes, but it's not necessarily good news. American audiences of musicals and dance films are vomiting. It is because of a series of box office failures that Hollywood rarely shoots." The head of Universal Distribution explained.

"I understand." Song Ya also knew the truth.

"But you are the first to use street dance elements, so...everything can only be seen by the market's reaction, and no one can grasp the taste of the audience 100%."

In my life, I don’t have any chance to win prizes, so I have no chance to rely on winning prizes to influence the audience’s desire to watch movies. After the publicity is done, I can only wait for the audience’s reputation to grow.

"Well, that's it for today."

The head of universal distribution got up, yawned, and left the viewing room with his men.

"Issuing companies are always so annoying." Someone in the front row complained. It was Stan Brackhitch, old Larry's close friend.

"Haha, no way, they are naturally strong." Catherine's husband also left.

"What? The movie is over?" Mariah Carey just woke up at this time, she asked dazedly.
