漫威电影的音乐缺少了什么?(下)

But there is one thing we haven't mentioned yet and it's very important.

但有一件非常重要的事我们还没有提到。

Today blockbuster movie scores are composed to a particular process,and that process starts with one controversial element:

如今,成功的电影配乐的作曲是按照一个特定的过程进行的,这个过程始于一个有争议的元素:

Danny you groaned earlier when someone mentioned temp music, the pros and cons?

丹尼,你之前提到暂时音轨时在叹气,能谈谈它的利弊吗?

For me temp music is the bane of my existence. It's my job to make the director forget everything he's heard in the temp, I won't listen to it but once, I'll never listened to it twice, and if they're addicted to it it's just going to make my job harder.

对我来说,暂时音轨是我的噩梦,我的工作就是让导演忘记他在暂时音轨中听到的一切,我只听一次暂时音轨,永远不会听第二次,如果导演沉迷于它,只会让我的工作变得更加困难。

Let's back up a second: temp music is when you're editing a film, and you take music from another movie and use it temporarily in your cut like this:

让我们来回顾一下:暂时音轨是指,当你制作一部电影时,从另一部电影中提取,并临时用于你的剪辑中的音乐,就像这样:

Temp music is always supposed to be replaced by composers' original score.

一般情况下,暂时音轨应该用作曲家的原创音乐替换。

But sometimes directors or producers will tell their composer to imitate the temp.

但有时导演或制片人会让他们的作曲家模仿暂时音轨。

To our knowledge, this is the only time a studio has publicly apologized for imitating temp music.

据我们所知,这是唯一一家因模仿暂时音轨而公开道歉的制片厂。

The far more pervasive effect is that now most blockbusters are temped with each other's scores.

现在很多大片都开始用彼此的配乐做暂时音轨。

So they kind of sound like each other, but just within legal limits.

所以它们听起来有点相似,但只是在法律允许的范围内。

And as the Marvel franchise has become more popular, now other films sound like they were tempt with Marvel music.

随着漫威系列电影变得越来越受欢迎,其他电影像是受到了漫威音乐的诱惑。

We want to emphasize: we're not blaming the composers.

我们想强调的是:我们不是在责怪作曲家。

Things don't get this way unless its systemic.

事情发展到这个地步,存在系统性的原因。

Before temp music became popular, directors would often reference other music as a way to talk to the composer.

在暂时音轨开始流行之前,导演们经常会引用其他音乐作为与作曲家交谈的一种方式。

But what changed everything was modern nonlinear editing which allowed a director to put their favorite music in the movie and have the editor cut to it.

但改变一切的是现代的非线性剪辑,它让导演可以在电影中加入他们最喜欢的音乐,并让剪辑师对其进行剪辑。

Now, director points to the temp and says: "Make it like that".

现在,导演可以指着暂时音轨说:“就做成这样的吧。”

And it's not because the music is the right choice, but because they've listened to it.

不是因为这个音乐适合,而是因为他们恰好听到了它。

Again and again and again for hours and hours making a DVD that match and they go back with another idea another version the next day with the same music, and at some point of the music stick to the picture.

一次又一次,花费很长时间制作一张合适的DVD,然后第二天他们带着另一个想法,另一个版本回来,但音乐是一样的,就好像把音乐固定在了画面上。

- They can spend a year before you arrive.

-可能要花一年的时间才能做好。

By the way, when you take that music out often the cut isn't right, because they're cutting to something that.

顺便说一句,当你把音乐放出来的时候,就会发现里面的剪辑经常是不合适的,因为他们只是在剪辑一些相似的……

It's very frustrating.

这非常令人沮丧。

Part of the frustration is that filmmakers just reuse things that worked in every other movie, so you end up with the lowest common denominator.

令人沮丧的原因之一是,电影制片人只是重复使用在其他电影里有效的东西,所以你最终得到的是最小公倍数。

Remember this?

还记得这个吗?

Let's try something different.

让我们来尝试一些不同的东西。

So earlier in the film, Thor convinced his friends to do something illegal and he was banished.

在电影的早些时候,雷神说服他的朋友一起做了一些违法的事情,然后他被流放了。

Now they're doing something illegal to find him.

现在,朋友们为了找到雷神做了一些违法的事。

He's not asking for their help, they're giving it willingly.

他没有请求朋友的帮助,是朋友自愿想要帮助他。

What if we heard this feeling in the music?

如果我们在音乐中听到这种感觉会怎么样?

We're not saying this is the right choice here, but it's worth trying out.

我们并不是说这是正确的选择,但它值得一试。

Because it makes the scene emotionally richer.

因为这会让场景的情感更加丰富。

And all of the choices you see in Marvel films: the background noise, hearing what you see, adding a narrator, temp music.

但是你在漫威电影中能听到的所有音乐却如同背景噪音,没有新意,被解说覆盖,类似暂时音轨。

All of these stem from the same desire: to keep things safe.

所有这些音乐都只为了满足同一个愿望:保证电影的安全。

This is not bad music, it's just bland and inoffensive.

它们不是糟糕的音乐,只是平淡无奇,没有冒犯性。

And because Marvel sacrifices emotional richness for these safe choices, the end result is this:

由于漫威为了这些安全而牺牲了情感的丰富性,最终的结果就是:

Oh. Marvel?

哦。漫威的音乐?

Na - oh.

不知道。

So what is missing from Marvel music?

那么,漫威音乐到底缺失了什么呢?

Risk.

冒险精神。

The kind of risk that creates an emotional connection with the audience.

一种会与观众产生情感链接的冒险精神。

So that they carry the music with them.

只有这样观众才能记住电影中的音乐。

People do not remember safe choices.

人们不会记住“安全”的音乐。

Only bold original music, and do this :

只会记住大胆的原创音乐,并给予这样的反应:

But that being said, we did find one Marvel theme that still got this reaction:

但话虽如此,我们确实找到了一个能够被人记住的漫威主题:

Spiderman! Spiderman!

蜘蛛侠!蜘蛛侠!

Friendly neighborhood Spiderman!

友好的邻居蜘蛛侠!

Spins web any size, catch thieves, just like flies.

织各种大小的网,抓贼,就像苍蝇一样。

Look out!

当心!

Here comes Spiderman!

蜘蛛侠来了!

Is he strong?

他强壮吗?

Listen bud, he's got radioactive blood.

听着伙计,他的血液里有放射性物质。

Can he swing from a thread. Take a look overhead.

他能从一根线上摇摆,看一眼头顶。

Hey there -

嘿——

There goes the Spiderman.

蜘蛛侠来了。

In the chill of night, at the scene of a crime, like a streak of light, he arrives just in time.

在寒冷的夜晚,在犯罪现场,就像一道亮光,他及时赶到。

Spiderman, Spiderman.

蜘蛛侠,蜘蛛侠。

Friendly neighborhood Spiderman.

友好的邻居蜘蛛侠。

Wealth and fame, he's ignored, action is his reward.

他不在乎财富和名望,行动是他的回报。

To him, life is a great big bang up.

对他来说,生活就是一场大爆炸。

Wherever there's a hang up, You'll find the Spider man.

哪里有问题,哪里就有蜘蛛侠。

-That was incredible!

-太不可思议了!

Thank you so much!

非常感谢!
