Chapter 386 Page's Voice Actor
In terms of content production, the business scale of Relativity Entertainment is getting bigger and bigger. Ronan specially took time out to visit several crews. The two crews of "Taken" and "Summer of Jeans" have all finished filming and transferred to post-production. The crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" also returned to Los Angeles from Rosario to start the interior shooting of the studio.
Ronan participated in the last audition for the heroine of "The Rival of All People" and personally finalized the role of Charlize Theron.
Due to his busy schedule, he didn't talk to the South African diamond, but asked the crew to negotiate the final contract with the other party.
Later, Ronan called Mrs. Seyfried and asked her to bring Amanda Seyfried to Sand Sea for entertainment. At the same time, he informed the Scotts that they brought a pair of children, Taylor and Austin. We found some children of different age groups in the company's employees' homes, and we took them into the film room with Chris Reynolds.
"What do you want me to do?" Amanda Seyfried sat next to Ronan, pointing to the children who had made a few rows in front: "Shall I help you look after the children?"
Mrs. Seyfried on the other side glanced at Amanda and said nothing.
Ronan gestured with his eyes to pull down the huge curtain in the film room: "The animation department of the company has newly produced a short film, and I want to see the acceptance level of children of different ages."
Amanda said slightly dissatisfied: "I'm already sixteen years old, I'm not a child anymore."
Ronan whispered, "It's suitable for all ages."
Amanda didn't continue this topic, and said instead: "You promised me to watch my filming, but when you came to the crew a few times, you came and went in a hurry without talking to me."
Ronan said: "Because director Abrams has done a great job, I am very relieved of him."
Amanda lowered her head, and then said: "This is my first film as a leading actress."
"Don't worry." Ronan smiled: "I won't miss your premiere."
Amanda guessed that in Ronan's eyes, she had always been a child, which made her a little helpless. After thinking for a while, she glanced at her mother and saw that she was chatting with the man named Scott, and she approached Ronan a little Some, said in a low voice: "Mom is a little more relaxed about me. I rented a small apartment in Burbank with my salary. I can move out of my house and live in an apartment on weekends. Which weekend do you have time? You can come and play with me." .”
Ronan really wanted to ask what to play? But considering his tall personality,
Said: "I will call you when I have time."
Amanda thought Ronan was perfunctory, shook her head slightly in disappointment, and was about to say something, when Chris Reynolds turned off the light in the drawing room, and the screen lit up on the curtain.
A pink pig came from outside the screen, stood in the middle of the grass, and said, "I'm Peggy..."
This is obviously an experimental version of dubbing by a female employee of the animation studio. The voice is a bit mature, and it does not match the age of Peppa Pig, but it does not prevent most of the children from staring at the screen and continuing to look down.
Since the animation studio was established for a short period of time, the animation time it produced was not long, only a few minutes, not fully completed, and part of the rendering was not in place. If you want to participate in the Oscar competition for the best animated short film, there is still a lot of work to do in the future.
But most of the younger children watched it with gusto.
That doesn't include Amanda Seyfried, who lost interest after watching it for a while.
A girl who came out as a model in her early teens has worked hard in the crew and society for several years, and her psychological maturity is far beyond her peers.
This kind of animation that tends to be childish, of course, can't be seen.
The animation finished playing quickly, and Chris Reynolds played it again, and after the second playback was finished, he turned on the lights in the room.
"Is it gone?" The person who spoke was Taylor's younger brother Austin, and a childish voice sounded: "I want more! I want more!"
The chubby Taylor gave his younger brother a hand: "Shut up, Austin! You're such a shame!"
Austin seemed a little afraid of his sister, so he kept his mouth shut obediently.
Ronan looked at Amanda Seyfried: "How was the film, what do you think?"
Amanda Seyfried is different from other children. After all, she is an insider in Hollywood. Knowing that Ronan is initially collecting feedback from the audience, she told the truth: "It's too childish for me, and it doesn't have any appeal."
She further said: "If I see such a program on TV, I will choose to change the channel immediately."
Ronan nodded, and someone beside him had already written down Amanda's words.
In the front, Chris Reynolds, as the project leader and director, has personally asked those children. His children are sitting in the front row. As a father, of course he knows how to communicate with them.
Taylor and Austin in front of Ronan heard what he asked Amanda, and they all turned around, as if they were going to ask me quickly.
"Is it good?" Ronan asked.
Just as Austin was about to speak, Taylor grabbed him: "I'll come first!"
The little boy could only shut up again in grievance, tears began to swirl in his eyes, but Taylor glared at him, and Austin didn't dare to cry again.
"Little pig is very cute." Taylor's chubby face was full of smiles: "It's pretty good-looking, more interesting than "Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck", but the voice is not very pleasant..."
This word reached the ears of a female employee in the animation studio, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
The voice of Peppa Pig is temporarily voiced by her, which is a temporary way to drive ducks to the shelves.
There is no way, the animation studio has not found a voice actor for the time being, so it can only temporarily find one of its own to perform as a cameo, and this female employee is the only one in the studio who has real acting experience.
"Yes, Taylor is right!" Austin seemed to flatter his sister: "This little pig talks like an adult, just like his mother."
Ronan nodded, and he will definitely change to a professional voice actor later.
He suddenly thought of something, turned around and asked, "Amanda, I remember you had professional vocal training?"
Amanda immediately guessed what Ronan was thinking, and quickly shook her head: "Ronan, I'm sixteen years old."
Ronan thought about it, Amanda Seyfried's voice may change as she grows older, which is really not suitable.
This cannot be forced, let's find another suitable candidate.
Taylor heard the conversation between Ronan and Amanda, looked at Amanda first, then at Ronan, and asked, "Are you talking about Page's voice acting?"
Amanda's big eyes rolled, and an idea suddenly popped up: "Your name is Taylor, right?"
"Yeah." Taylor looked at Amanda curiously, feeling that this person looked like an oversized Barbie doll, both beautiful and cute.
It's not like me, not to mention chubby, with missing teeth.
How great would it be if I could be as beautiful as her when I grow up?
"You said Page's voice is not good." Amanda said deliberately: "I think your voice is good."
She asked curiously: "Have you had professional vocal exercises?"
Taylor is just a little chubby girl, in terms of how her heart and eyes are comparable to the current Amanda Seyfried, she was immediately caught out: "I'm learning vocal music and singing..."
Amanda looked at Ronan: "You kid is more suitable than me."
She was really worried that Ronan would grab her and ask her to dub Peppa Pig. Forcibly refusing it seemed inappropriate, and it might affect Ronan's opinion of herself...
Taylor was already twelve or thirteen years old, and he could understand the meaning of some words, so he immediately asked, "Ronan, are you going to find a voice for Page again?"
Ronan said: "We are going to find a long-term candidate."
"Can I do it?" Taylor's face was full of eagerness: "Do you think I can do it?"
Ronan glanced at her and said directly, "Do you want to dub Paige? Ask your father and mother first."
Taylor curled his lips: "Oh, well, I'll ask Dad. But Ronan, you have to help me, my dad has always listened to your advice."
Ronan said: "If your parents have no objection, you can try it."
"Okay!" Taylor immediately stood up and went to the Scotts.
Contrary to Ronan's expectations, the Scotts were very open-minded. It seemed that they were often exposed to this industry, and they did not object to Taylor's competition for the voice of Peppa Pig.
After the trial session was over, Scott specifically found Ronan for a chat.
Ronan greeted Chris Reynolds and asked him to add Taylor directly to Peppa Pig's audition list.
It also seems interesting to think about it.
It's a pity that Taylor is still young, otherwise it would be more interesting to write a song for Peppa Pig.
Maybe when he gets older in the future, Taylor will treat Peppa Pig the same way he treats his ex-boyfriend?
"Ronan, don't forget to call me."
When leaving Sandsea Entertainment, Amanda specifically reminded Ronan: "I have time on weekends."
Ronan sent Seyfried mother and daughter out of the company and said, "I remember."
Mrs. Seyfried did not interject. After saying goodbye to Ronan, she took Amanda out of the office building and got into a red Cadillac without starting the car immediately.
"Honey," she reminded, "you're getting a little too close to Ronan Anderson."
Amanda smiled and said, "We've always been friends."
As a mother, Mrs. Seyfried could guess some of Amanda's thoughts. After all, she also came from this age group back then, and said directly: "I can understand that you have a crush on Ronan. He is indeed a very good person." People, but I want to remind you that there are some rumors about Ronan in the circle, and his relationship with some female stars..."
"He's a producer, and he's a very successful producer. There are always some women who will take the initiative to lean on him." Amanda didn't seem to care at all: "Isn't this the same in this circle? Ronan is just a normal man. Much better than most producers."
"You..." Mrs Seyfried didn't know what to say for a moment.
Amanda changed the subject: "Mom, let's go home, I'm hungry."
