If you don't enter the door, you don't know the suffering of a line.

Those tasks that seem simple, often only know that it is not as simple as it seems until you do it yourself.

Editing, isn’t it just cutting off the redundant parts, and then splicing the parts to be used together, just like doing manual work.

When recording, I already know which section to use, just like I have already drawn the blueprint when doing manual work, and just cut it according to the drawn line. It sounds like there is no difficulty.

But when it was time to start editing, I realized that this thing is really difficult to handle.

Although in theory it is like drawing a line and cutting it, the problem is that you can't see the line directly.

This is equivalent to drawing an invisible line on the paper. After making a volley gesture, the master may already know how to cut it, but the novice will be stunned.

Yu Huan was like this. At the beginning, he thought that editing would be easy, so he hugged the computer and tinkered with enthusiasm, and told Gu Luoyao that it would definitely be done in half an hour.

For a 15-second video, it can be done in half an hour.

However, after two hours of fiddling, Yu Huan found sadly that the video was barely cut out, but no matter how uncomfortable it was, it was not smooth at all. She watched it over and over again and couldn't find the reason why it looked uncomfortable.

Take it to ask Gu Luoyao, Gu Luoyao praised Yu Huan when she came up, saying that Yu Huan was smart, capable and ingenious, Barabara praised her, then shook her head blankly, "I can't see it either."

Yu Huan came to ask her, but actually he ignored her for a long time, wanted to find a topic to say a few words, and didn't expect Gu Luoyao to be able to speak for a long time, but found that she was quietly rubbing her belly while chatting.

Seeing rubbing her belly, Yu Huan's first reaction was that her aunt was here.But counting the time, it seems that it's not the time yet, and it's not right to look carefully at Gu Luoyao's rubbing position.

So what's wrong?

Before Yu Huan could figure it out, Gu Luoyao gave her the answer with a grunt.

"hungry?"

Gu Luoyao nodded pitifully, and pointed to the screen, "You take such a good picture, I'm hungry."

An An, who didn't know when she came over, followed suit and rubbed her belly, "It looks good, I'm hungry."

It's 04:30 in the afternoon, and it's not long before dinner time, but if you eat now, you will definitely be hungry at night, and it would be a bit cruel not to eat.

Yu Huan thought for a while, then got up and went to the kitchen to get something. There was half a watermelon in the refrigerator, there were peaches, and dragon fruit, and a fruit plate was enough.

While Yu Huan was making fruit plates in the kitchen, Gu Luoyao didn't know who to call outside, and couldn't make out what he was talking about, but occasionally heard "An'an help me get it" I don't know what I'm tinkering with.

When Yu Huan went out with the fruit plate, Gu Luoyao hugged the computer and tapped there, while An An watched with wide eyes.

"Xiao Yu, come and see, isn't this much better?"

After handing the fork to the two of them, Yu Huan rubbed his hands on his lap before leaning over to look at the screen.

The video is not much different from just now, but it does look much smoother. Gu Luoyao is still tinkering with the subtitles, and the two shots of you with fancy characters look a lot more professional, although the one they used is basically It is not professional software.

"It's amazing, how did you do it?"

"I just had a video with Teacher Zhang, and she guided me to change a few places. She said that there is no need to keep the movements so complete. If you keep too many movements, it will look more verbose, which is the unsmooth feeling you mentioned."

Yu Huan didn't quite understand just talking about it out of thin air, so Gu Luoyao repeated what Teacher Zhang said just now while operating, and then explained clearly what was going on.

In fact, it is learning to do subtraction.

People who just started editing have this problem, that is, they want to keep everything.

But in fact, it is not necessary to keep it so complete in many cases. For example, an action of opening a door is really like turning the door handle, pushing the door, walking in, and closing the door. .

In the video, there is usually an action of turning the door handle and pushing the door, followed by closing the door. Sometimes the action of turning the door handle is followed by the action of closing the door. The action is incomplete, and the audience can still understand it. People come in.

"Did I make it clear?" Gu Luoyao looked at Yu Huan, "I'm sorry, but I only got the general idea, but I didn't quite understand it. Teacher Zhang said that he would send the courseware over in a while, which is the basics of the previous lessons. Take a look and call her if you don't understand."

"Will it be too troublesome?" Yu Huan felt a little sorry.

I was very embarrassed to disturb others for no reason, and even took their courseware.

Gu Luoyao shook her head, "It's okay, her son is studying classical dance, and I happen to be rehearsing works, I can arrange him in."

So I still owe a favor.

You can tell what she's thinking just by looking at her expression, Gu Luoyao patted her on the head, "Don't think about it, her son dances very well, it's just that he lacks a chance. It's hard to find a good male dancer, we count Help each other."

"By the way, do you want to add a sound to the video? I think it might be better to have a soundtrack."

Is changing the subject so blunt now?

Yu Huan blinked, "I can't match well, it sounds weird."

"I can do it," Gu Luoyao raised her eyebrows, "I don't know how to edit, but it's okay to dub a voice."

There are a lot of cooking videos on the Internet now, and most of what Yu Huan saw was the kind that was particularly rough, with big iron pots, big iron spoons and loud voices, which sounded very imposing.

But Gu Luoyao said that Yu Huan is not suitable for that style, after all, the dishes she cooks are not the kind of messy stew in an iron pot.

Since the dishes are refined, the dubbing can naturally be more refined, so that the style looks more unified.

Of course, the courseware is not freshly made, it is used in previous lectures, just look for it, and it will be sent quickly.

Yu Huan waited for the documents to arrive and began to study the content of the courseware. Gu Luoyao sat next to her, eating fruit and writing. An An looked at this and that, put down the fork and went to get her own fairy tale book, and sat in the small chair While flipping through books, eat fruit.

The few lessons Mr. Zhang gave are the most basic things, which belong to the kind of questions that are counted as sub-questions after the exam, but for those who have no foundation, these things are not so easy to understand.

After reading it briefly, Yu Huan didn't expect to be able to learn it all at once, so he got into the kitchen to work after he got a general idea of ​​what it was about.

Feeding the stomachs of the mother and child is obviously more important than tinkering with the ten-second video.

Gu Luoyao's habit is not to leave the problems that can be solved at that time, because some things are really not wanted to be done after being delayed, or they just forget to do them.

Speaking of dubbing for Yu Huan, she started translating Yu Huan's written subtitles into spoken language, and started preparing for the recording after sorting it out.

An An is at an age where she is quite curious, and she finds everything fun to watch, and she watches Gu Luoyao audition over and over again, recording every sentence.

After Gu Luoyao found the feeling and recorded it again, she suddenly found that An An was also shaking her head to imitate her dubbing, whispering some words that he could remember.

With a flash of inspiration, Gu Luoyao suddenly pushed the manuscript in front of An An, "Do you want to try it?"

"Yes! But... I can't remember, there are too many."

"It's okay, mom will teach you, I'll say one sentence, and you can follow along, okay?"

"it is good!"

Gu Luoyao taught An An to read the words, not simply retelling them, but calling out the video and telling him the meaning of each sentence in detail.

Maybe An'an still doesn't quite understand what it means, but through this method, he can leave some impressions in his mind, and when he sees similar pictures in the future, he won't be blinded and don't understand anything.

For example, there is a sentence in it that you should be careful when serving dishes. The main reason is that there is water on the dishes, and the water will fry when it encounters hot oil. Possibly more serious.

An An may still not understand why water will explode when it meets hot oil, but as long as he knows it will explode, he will not throw everything into the pot foolishly, and if he is not careful, he may hurt himself or others.

Learning while playing, one is willing to learn and the other is willing to teach, it is quite lively.

But children's energy is limited after all, these things are indeed a bit complicated, Gu Luoyao is 30 years old and still doesn't understand it, let alone a three-year-old child can hear it from beginning to end.

After listening to it for a while, An'an couldn't do it anymore, she pulled Gu Luoyao's clothes aggrievedly, "Mom, I don't understand, there are too many, it's so difficult."

"Okay, forget it if you don't understand, come and eat." Yu Huan came out to call someone for dinner, just in time to hear this sentence.

In fact, Yu Huan subconsciously wanted to take An An to wash his hands, but Gu Luoyao was asking him to learn something, so it seemed not good to take the child away, so he stopped where he was and looked at Gu Luoyao.

Gu Luoyao smiled, put down the things in her hand and touched An An's little head, "Okay, go wash your hands and eat with Sister Xiaoyu."

"What about you?"

"Huh? I'll set up a bowl for the rice." Gu Luoyao passed by Yu Huan and squeezed her hand, "You've worked hard, I'll do the rest."

Gu Luoyao worked hard for a long time to record the dubbing for her. Yu Huan thought that she would have to get this video out today.

After the camera was connected, the words were typed, and the dubbing was pasted up, it took me until ten o'clock in the evening with such a little thing.

After Gu Luoyao coaxed An'an to sleep, she took a book and read it beside her. Yu Huan didn't talk to her because she was afraid of disturbing her reading.

When dubbing, Gu Luoyao didn't use her usual voice. It was a bit like her state in class, but a little gentler than that. Yu Huan listened to it several times and couldn't get tired of it. Like.

When the music was over, she wanted to say a few words to Gu Luoyao, but when she turned her head, she realized that Gu Luoyao had left at some point.

Is this going to sleep?

It shouldn't be, recently Gu Luoyao has insisted on having a good night kiss every day, even if it's just a light touch, she must have it, how could she go to sleep without making a sound.

He went to the bedroom lightly and took a look, and sure enough there was only An An on the bed.

There was no one in the kitchen, and there was no one in the bathroom. After wandering around, I couldn't find it anywhere, and only the attic was left.

Generally, if Gu Luoyao stays in the attic, she is either practicing or choreographing, and there will be some movement without music. Yu Huan has even heard her count the time for herself.

Why is it so quiet today?

Opening the door and looking, Gu Luoyao was sitting on the ground facing the mirror, staring at her own eyes through the mirror and didn't know what she was staring at.

"Teacher Gu? What are you doing?"

Gu Luoyao looked back, her eyes were red, like a little rabbit abandoned by the side of the road.
