The official filming scenes of the two new songs were released one after the other.
In the absence of MVs and sound sources, live official photos have become the only meal replacement for fans.
As soon as it went online, the number of views skyrocketed, and the growth rate was even as high as that of some singers’ official MVs.
In particular, the official video of "Monsters", because it collaborated with the fireworks show, made the video more watchable, and also triggered heated discussions on the Internet.
This kind of response is also very beneficial to the promotion of Jiang Yuan's second English album.
At least after the last music festival and this time's appearance on the stage, Jiang Yuan's preview of the new album that he had previously said at the award ceremony has been revealed again, making it a highly anticipated event for this year's album release.
One of the most famous artists.
As for the song "She Came to My Concert", although only the official video has been released, it has become a new single that will be celebrated among the fans in the new year, and they are also looking forward to the official launch of the music source.
After the final encore of the concert, Jiang Yuan returned to the Magic City and was not idle at all.
During the day, apart from sleeping, most of the time is spent either riding in the car or working.
The work content basically revolves around the production of the new album, focusing on recording and MV shooting.
Under continuous working conditions, Jiang Yuan did make a lot of progress in one week.
I basically completed the shooting of a new MV, and also took some album photos in the MV style, saving me the time to spend on location shooting.
As for the recording of the album, it has basically reached the final stage.
On the seventh day of the week, Jiang Yuan appeared in the company, also for the recording of the last song included in the album.
Deng Ge had been waiting in the recording studio early in the morning to make preparations.
Because he participated in the production of Jiang Yuan's new album, although Deng Ge's work direction is not as complicated as Jiang Yuan's, there is no difference in busyness.
After seeing such intensity of work, Jiang Yuan also had the idea to suggest to Deng Ge whether to find more producers to share the workload.
It's just that this suggestion was just put forward, but Deng Ge rejected it immediately, and said that he enjoyed this busy state, and he was busy and enjoyed it.
For example, right now, after Jiang Yuan entered the recording studio, Deng Ge was excitedly sharing the latest progress of some song production with him.
"When the recording of today's song ends, the completion of the album will basically enter a new stage." After sharing the progress, Deng Ge was eager to start recording work immediately.
As someone who has listened to the entire album in advance, Deng Ge is full of confidence in Jiang Yuan's second English album and highly praises the theme of the new album, believing that it will be loved by many listeners.
"By the way, I heard that the proofing of the physical album has been completed. Do you want to check it out after the recording is over?" Deng Ge asked Jiang Yuan as he arranged the equipment.
"That's for sure." Jiang Yuan nodded. This was another job he came to the company for today besides recording.
"When the recording starts later, take a photo with your phone outside and I'll make a vlog." Before entering the studio to record, Jiang Yuan handed the phone to Deng Ge and said.
With the end of the concert, Jiang Yuan's previously uploaded vlog naturally disappeared. This also resulted in a lot of messages from fans urging the vlog on Yuan Universe in recent days.
Because he saw many similar messages every time he went online, Jiang Yuan agreed to make a vlog about his work and life in the near future.
From Jiang Yuan's point of view, it seems to be a rather boring point of view, but looking at it from the fans' point of view, it is material worth looking forward to.
"Can you take a look at this perspective?" Deng Ge took the phone and helped to play with it.
Jiang Yuan made an OK gesture, then entered the recording studio, put on his headphones and looked through the lyrics sheet for a while.
Before coming to the company, Jiang Yuan had already completed vocal training and was able to enter the recording work of the song in a relatively good condition.
This is also a good habit that Jiang Yuan developed after taking vocal music lessons seriously before, and basically practices her voice every day.
In this way, all year round, even when there is no need to sing songs, Jiang Yuan is in very good condition, and when he needs to use his voice to perform or record, he can perform better.
For example, in the recording of the last song, after Deng Ge helped Jiang Yuan shoot a short vlog, he also started to listen to Jiang Yuan's singing seriously.
For the vocal recording, Jiang Yuan took the lead in recording some difficult harmonies, allowing Deng Ge to confirm that Jiang Yuan was in good condition that day.
After all the harmonies were recorded, and some backup sound sources were saved, Jiang Yuan officially began to sing the main melody of the song.
It is also the most important part of the vocal recording process.
The last song of the album is still a rock track, and the difficulty of singing it is not low.
Especially in Deng Ge's opinion, in a recording studio environment, there will be less passion than in a live setting, and sometimes the recorded version will not sound so enjoyable.
Moreover, it is also important to grasp the scale, and do not let the emotion be too intense, which will affect the listening ability of the recording studio sound source.
An entire standard can be described as both necessary and necessary.
However, Jiang Yuan's performance in the recording studio made Deng Ge feel that it was just right, although it was not as good as some songs recorded once.
"It's very close, this is it..." After the recording was completed, Deng Ge took Jiang Yuan together to review the details of the singing.
Jiang Yuan also tried to improve the parts that needed to be adjusted and started recording again. After repeating this process several times, he successfully completed the recording of the last song.
After confirming the completion of the recording work together, Deng Ge also laughed and started to applaud. Like Jiang Yuan, he took out his mobile phone and took a group photo with Jiang Yuan.
In Deng Ge's words, I feel that this will be a visual record of a historic moment.
After Jiang Yuan took a photo with Deng Ge, he sent the photo to Yuan Universe and added the words that the album recording was completed.
It can also be regarded as the first time to report the album production progress to fans.
The main reason is that the production plan and news for the second English album have been announced a long time ago. Every step taken now is actually to promote the album and increase the popularity.
The completion of the recording work is indeed a milestone for fans.
Even for some casual music fans, it is also a piece of music information worthy of attention.
If it was previously confirmed that Jiang Yuan would release a new album, after the recording of the entire album is completed, it is basically confirmed that the album release time is not too far away.
Even some fans abroad and even music critic Aaron were shocked by Jiang Yuan's spoiler. He expressed on his account that he wanted to become a member of Jiang Yuan's production team.
You can listen to the complete new album in advance.
[I have a feeling that the most powerful album this year is coming!]
[Send a full album to listen to and see how strong it is.]
【Are you going to send it?】
[Is there any physical preview! 】
[If there is no performance, will the new songs be included in the show? 】
——
The announcement of this news also made fans very excited. They are very concerned about the information about Jiang Yuan's new album, including the promotion and song promotion after the album is released.
At this time, Jiang Yuan had already arrived at the company's conference room to view the proofing of the physical album.
On the one hand, it is because of his feelings for physical albums, and on the other hand, because the sales of physical albums can be directly linked to the indicators of system tasks, Jiang Yuan is still very concerned about the design language of each physical album.
Each physical album contains various configurations and materials used, and will be repeatedly proofed for confirmation.
This time I came to the company mainly to take a look at several versions of the physical album design.
"This time's version only confirms the album cover and CD design. As for photos and the like, the shooting has not been completed yet, so only a part of it has been printed to see the effect."
The staff member responsible for this album's sample production explained the situation of the samples to Jiang Yuan.
"Let me take a look." Jiang Yuan nodded and began to unpack the different versions of the albums in front of him one by one.
The assistant was holding a mobile phone to take pictures and records. This is also part of Jiang Yuan’s work vlog.
Of course, stickers will be put on the physical album samples later to cover them up to avoid leaking the physical album design in the vlog.
During this process, in addition to experiencing the process of unboxing the album, Jiang Yuan was also confirming the paper craftsmanship and printing of the album with the design team.
More specifically, it also breaks down directly to the costs and profits of album printing and production.
In the past, Jiang Yuan was not that concerned about the issue of cost, but now that the production of "The Wandering Earth" is about to begin, Jiang Yuan has become much more sensitive to this aspect.
After all, the production of the latter is indeed very expensive.
Although the financial strength is still strong after the last movie "Detective Chinatown" was a box office hit, it is always better to be more careful with the budget.
However, regarding the cost, we discussed the materials used in each version, and finally came to the conclusion that the more expensive ones were used.
Within a limited budget, Jiang Yuan still wants to maximize the album configuration and live up to the fans who buy the album.
The assistant on the side also recorded this discussion about costs into the video.
According to the version initially discussed, the album's production costs alone had managed to reach half of the selling price.
This does not include the production of music and MV, which can be said to be a very conscientious production.
"Just follow this current version. After the photos are taken, we can make proofs to see the effect." After studying the first version of the sample for a while, Jiang Yuan came to this conclusion.
The recording work for the album ended that day, and the physical first version design was basically confirmed. This made Jiang Yuan feel very good and invited Deng Ge to have dinner with him in the evening.
However, after dinner, Deng Ge still turned around and returned to the company, saying that he still had some unfinished work on hand and planned to go home after it was completed.
From Jiang Yuan's point of view, this kind of performance seemed a bit fanatical.
But thinking on the bright side, the production progress of the new album has been accelerated again, which made Jiang Yuan feel a little emotional.
"The vlog shot today has been edited. Do you want to post it today?" Zhang Qing asked Jiang Yuan in the nanny car back to the community.
A vlog that lasts a few minutes is not complicated for the post-production team.
And because of the good habits brought about by being a director, Jiang Yuan also arranged the timeline himself when filming the vlog.
Each clip can be spliced together after a slight deletion or speed change, so while Jiang Yuan was having dinner with Deng Ge, the post-production of the vlog was completed.
"I'll take a look first." After hearing what Zhang Qing said, Jiang Yuan came back to his senses and prepared to take a look at how the edited vlog turned out.
Mainly, I want to check that there are no strange parts in the vlog so that I can publish it directly.
In a few minutes, Jiang Yuan quickly read through the vlog.
After reading it, I didn't find anything inappropriate, so I nodded again and prepared to publish this vlog today.
Most of the entire video is about what happened on the day of shooting, which also gave Jiang Yuan the feeling of having finished writing a diary of that day in the form of a video.
With this idea in mind, I published the vlog simultaneously on the same day while it was still relatively fresh.
"OK." After receiving Jiang Yuan's approval, Zhang Qing immediately started operating on his tablet, switching between several platform accounts quickly.
Having already announced that he had completed the recording of his second album, when the day's work and life vlog was released online, it was also a surprise for fans, attracting many fans to come and watch it at night.
It has to be said that although the length of the vlog is very short, the record of this day is still relatively complete in Jiang Yuan's opinion.
From going out to have breakfast in the morning, to practicing voice and writing scripts, to going to the company to start recording, to unpacking album samples to confirm the production plan, and finally having dinner with Deng Ge to celebrate the completion of the recording work, that basically ended the day.
journey.
In these clips, the amount of information revealed to fans is still quite sufficient.
In addition to the recording progress that everyone has already learned through Jiang Yuanfa's updates, this is the first time for fans to see the unboxing of physical album proofs.
However, as to what the design of the album is, in the video, a large mosaic with the word "secret" written on it blocks the true appearance of the album samples.
Despite this, Jiang Yuan's actions when unpacking the album made it look like the album had many configurations.
Many fans heard the subsequent discussion about the cost of the album for the first time from Jiang Yuan's vlog, which aroused a lot of attention and discussion.
