"Come here for now,"

Standing up from the chair in front of the monitor, Murphy put down the pen and notebook in his hand, and said to Jody Griffiths, "rest for fifteen minutes."

Jody Griffith and Paul Wilson who participated in the post-production also stood up from their work positions, or walked back and forth, or stood by the window and looked into the distance, relaxing in different ways.

Carey Mulligan, who had been staying in the corner, saw Murphy suspended from work, and immediately walked out holding a big paper bag. Regardless of other people's eyes, he took out the fruit inside and stuffed it over, "Have some bananas."

She bought it on the way over from the acting class.

Murphy took it and looked at others around him. Kerry Mulligan was standing opposite, putting the paper bag on the table, just blinking at him.

"Kerry..." Murphy reminded with his eyes.

"Huh?" Kerry Mulligan was stunned, "Is there something?"

She noticed Murphy's eyes looking at Jody Griffith, and immediately understood, grabbed the paper bag and walked over there, saying, "Are you all tired? I still have fruit here."

Paul Wilson took the banana and smiled and said thank you. It’s not surprising that the relationship between the boss and Carey Mulligan is progressing. As long as the people in the crew are interested, they have already seen it, Carey Mulligan. Reagan liked his boss very much.

Like Paul Wilson, no one finds it strange that Murphy and Kerry Mulligan come together.

Fifteen minutes passed in a flash, Murphy clapped his palms vigorously, "Go to work!"

Because of the support of certain experience and better equipment, and after working together once, Murphy and Jody Griffith have also formed a considerable understanding. The editing work in this post-production is obviously better than the previous one. The time was much faster. After spending three days watching all the footage, it took less than four days to complete the first step of the first cut.

After Da Vinci's color palette and some other post-processing, it has now entered the stage of fine-cutting. Murphy and Jody Griffith have become relatively cautious. Every time a clip is cut, they will repeat each other. Discuss, and finally focus on Murphy's opinions, and then make appropriate changes.

Fine editing is a creative work. The editor is required to have montage thinking and master the montage language during the editing process, and create the best narrative effect through editing. After the initial editing is completed, the editor is actually just a bunch of raw materials. , An excellent editor can create pleasing visual effects on this basis.

Like the last post-production, Murphy is a director who is in charge of the overall situation. It is impossible to be proficient in all the work. More often, he speaks out his own requirements and requires Jody Griffith to use his hands to become reality.

In addition to these, Murphy also needs to go to another studio to complete the sound effects work with the crew's sound engineer Hart Colby.

Although live recording was used in almost all scenes during shooting, there are always some shots that do not meet Murphy's requirements. If all the audio materials of the simultaneous sound cannot be used, it is necessary to supplement the unusable materials.

These tasks are not troublesome. James Franco's life trajectory when he met Murphy has changed significantly. According to the information provided by Seth Rogen, after the shooting, James Franco will only have a chance. I will have a "father and daughter meeting" with Lily Collins. I don't have to take over a new job, so I can come here to record at any time.

Not to mention Seth Rogen. They are basically actors who have finished playing this role and don't know where the next role will be.

"Finally finished!"

In the recording studio, James Franco put down the script of his lines, walked aside and sat down to rest. Murphy listened to the effect of the recording in combination with the screen played on the monitor, and nodded to the sound engineer Hart Colby, indicating that he was okay. After passing, walked to James Franco's side.

"To be honest, I really admire you!"

When Murphy was sitting on a chair next to him, James Franco gave him a thumbs up, "A difficult girl like Carrie Mulligan, you can even smooth it out so easily."

Murphy shrugged. It was not the first time I heard this, and he was too lazy to explain. Some things weren't intentional, and he had no experience of chasing girls in love.

"Where is Seth?" He simply changed the subject. "Why haven't I seen him over the past few days?"

After the start of post-production, as long as there is nothing wrong, Seth Rogen will still come to the crew to help, more for learning, it seems that his goal is really not just to be an actor.

"Going to the accent class." James Franco seemed to be dissatisfied with Murphy's change of subject, and squeezed his eyes on purpose. "Are you already..."

He made a virtual fist with one hand, and extended his index finger with the other hand, making a few back and forth twitching movements in the middle of the fist.

Murphy directly gave him a middle finger, without meaning to answer, but asked, "What about you? Where are you?"

"Me?" James Franco looked puzzled, as if he didn't understand Murphy at all.

"Don't pretend to be confused." Murphy pointed to his eyes. "I'm not blind yet."

James Franco was not embarrassed to be exposed. He thought about it for a while and said, “In a while, Jill Coron is going to England, and Lily is about to have summer vacation. I plan to rent a boat to take her on the high seas. "

Murphy gave him a thumbs up unconsciously, "I should say that I admire him."

Hu Lanlan opened her hands, made a grimace, and stood up, "I'm leaving now. Call me if you have something to do."

After recording the actor's dubbing, the dialogue must be edited, and the dialogues of the simultaneous recording and post-supplementary recording should be aligned and replaced. At the same time, the dynamic foley should be added. The supplementary recorded scenes cannot have lines without action effects. Hart-Kolby will use various methods to restore the sound of the action in the scene.

Then edit the sound effects to match the sound effects and motion effects.

The last is environmental sound processing. Environmental sound is an important means to restore the scene, creating a different sense of space and environment.

At the same time, there is an important link in environmental sound processing-air sound processing. Air sound is used to level the bottom noise level of different lenses, which can help the audience ignore the editing between the lenses.

To put it simply, in an extremely quiet space, it is not that there is no sound. The vibration of the air itself will produce sound.

After completing these, add the soundtrack. Because of the funding, Murphy also did not use the original soundtrack, and continued to use the method of "Fruit Hard Candy".

This time the team was very powerful. Even if there were some problems in the middle, Murphy still completed all the post-production one week in advance, which also proved the importance of a good team for a film.

With the completion of the film, finding the right distributor has become Murphy's most important job.
