Chapter 343 The game soundtrack perfectly fits the plot and game content! (Please subscribe ~ monthly pass!)
The contract was signed very well.

CAA did not play tricks on the contract. After all, it is still in the process of "making profits" and "fishing". It is undoubtedly stupid to influence the final decision for temporary benefits.

After getting the information, Li Shaojie began to study and get down to business.

No matter what the mess is, the work belongs to the work.

The most important thing is to make relevant soundtracks for the third set of "Star Guardian" game skins launched by League of Legends.

In the League of Legends game, the skin can actually not affect much.

It is nothing more than that some skins feel better, but it will not play a decisive role, and will not make a rookie become a king by relying on krypton gold.

Therefore, many players buy skins purely for "experience".

I think the design of this skin is good-looking, and it is comfortable and smooth to use, which can make my operation more smooth.

That's enough.

And like this kind of parallel world IP with a unique world view, the production must be very exquisite and detailed.

The sense of experience brought by this kind of consumption must be different.

Including the unique BGM at the beginning of the game, the BGM of the click activity interface, and even the BGM of some actions, voice dubbing, and even skill effects in the skin game.

To put it simply, players are willing to pay for the two major items, from vision to hearing.

Of course.

Whether to sell it for money has nothing to do with Li Shaojie.

What I have to do is to start with one of the "experience" of customers using the skin.

Therefore, Li Shaojie studied the gradually perfected "Star Guardian" universe.

At the beginning, there was only one skin of the magic girl of light, and the idea of ​​"I want to make a series" did not arise.

The image borrowed is actually an anime with great influence.

"Sailor Moon".

The original painting of transformation, the special effects of dancing back to town and music, and the skill of shining lights and stars.

It's purely a tribute to meme.

As a result, unexpectedly, the skins sold well because of the special effects and the original paintings were good.

Tried and launched several other character skins of the same style.

Turn other characters into magical girls as well.

Then a team of magical girls was formed, with characters of various colors and star-studded special effects.

【Starlight Sisters】

It wasn't until the third year when the skin of the second series style [Cool Kids] was launched that it was changed from "Magic Girl" to "Star Guardian" series of parallel universe stories.

Moreover, in order to launch the skin later, I also started digging an innocuous pit.

As a result, the background view is suddenly full.

But the so-called "Star Guardian" at this time is actually an ordinary "unity story" in which the starlight sisters and beautiful girls defeat monsters.

But last time, after the launch of the second team skin, there seemed to be a lot of stories in the background.

The content also gradually began to become more and more in-depth.

Fate, betrayal, redemption, sacrifice.

The characters began to come alive, and the plot began to become interesting.

The third batch of skins launched this time has finally begun to reveal the stories of the Star Guardians.

It was a long time ago, in the universe, there was a ray of light against the vast darkness.

This is the original star.

The age of the universe is unknown, and in the long time, the original star does not want to be alone.

As a result, it spread its own starlight into the entire cosmic night sky.

In the universe, some people obtained these starlights, gained great power, and were also given the mission of "guarding the original starlight".

The first person to receive starlight is full of light power, very powerful.

Burns brightly, but burns quickly.

After death, people will become stars again and dissipate.

This same power of starlight will re-select a new owner and continue to reincarnate.

Doing round after round of confrontation with the darkness in the universe.

Once upon a time there was a guardian named Zoe, and her sisters lived in the darkest place.

Originally, because of her teammates, she had the happiest time.

But in one evil fall, in swift and terrifying force, she lost all her sisters and was heartbroken.

The reincarnation of fate gave the Star Guardians great strength, and also shackled their fate.

Accept the starlight, fight, dissipate, and the starlight finds its master again.
No fire, no light!

Fighting against the darkness, if the strength is weak, it is basically difficult to survive, but the stronger the strength, the faster the death will be.

It's nothing more than the difference between sudden sudden death and Qiu Hou Wen's beheading.

Zoe has had enough.

Therefore, she hated the primordial star that brought her and the guardians fate and destiny, went to the source of evil, accepted the darkness, and wanted to change her destiny.

Maybe it's unwillingness to fate, wanting to get rid of the cycle of fate.

Maybe it's something else.

After tracking down the source of the evil, Zoe abandoned the starlight and fell into darkness.

【She doesn't want to change back to starlight, she just wants to keep her own appearance】

The extension of the story this time also fills in the past of some people in the second team, the [Cool Kids] team.

The pit dug before had hinted at it.

The second team is actually the team newly formed by Captain Ahri.

Captain Ahri and Miss Fortune are old seniors, and the remaining three are newcomers.

And a long time ago, Ahri, Miss Fortune, actually teamed up with Neeko, and a very loving couple, Xayah and Luo.

In one mission, the team encountered the already blackened Zoe.

As the saying goes, blackening is three times stronger.

At this time, Zoe seemed to have become darkness itself rather than being blackened.

She has hunted and blackened these star guardians who carry the power of starlight in countless epochs.

It seems to be revenge for the shackles of fate brought by the original star,
In a bitter battle, Xia and Luo were killed, and they were instantly killed. In the face of a completely invincible enemy who sent all her teammates away, Nicole slipped away and retreated tactically.

Anyway, if you can't beat it, you have to send it up. It's better to slip away and wait for an opportunity.

A team is split like this.

Ahri and Miss Fortune were lucky enough to escape from the clutches and re-form the team.

Xayah and Luo are corrupted and controlled by Zoe's dark power.

And Nicole is also facing Zoe's endless pursuit.

Xia, who was eroded by the darkness, changed her mind. She didn't want to do anything before she died, and she also felt dissatisfied with fate and fate. After Zoe was resurrected and controlled her, she harbored hatred for the original star and went to darkness.

After being blackened, Xia thought that it was Nicole's betrayal that caused the fall of herself and Luo, so she also started hunting down her former teammates.

Luo was also resurrected by Zoe's dark power.

But Luo was keenly aware of the fact that they were being manipulated by darkness.

In his heart, the most precious thing is always Xia. Looking at Xia who has been eroded by darkness, Luo has been using starlight to purify Xia's darkness and comfort Xia's pain.

He wants to see his lover free and be herself again, so he has been waiting for the time.

Even if it means sacrificing oneself, or falling into evil and darkness forever, it is not hesitating.

【I can't watch you die again】

Based on such a story development, the skins released this time are the blackened big devil Zoe, and Ahri's long-lost teammates Xia, Luo, and Neeko.

There are many plots in the story.

This music naturally has more points to pay attention to.

Fate, fate, reincarnation, shackles.

Friendship, love, hatred, unwillingness.

Sacrifice, dedicate, rebel, fall.

This entangled story needs to use music to create a perfect artistic conception and texture, so that players can roughly perceive the content even if they don't understand the background of the story.
Sad, tragic.

Let players feel the starlight of the Star Guardians.

And this time, the name to promote the CG animation has already been decided.

"Light and Eclipse"!
Li Shaojie squeezed his chin.

Open a custom game.

It's not fishing.

Because, in addition to starting the soundtrack after the promotional CG is cut, Li Shaojie also needs to be responsible for the production of [login interface BGM] and [starting BGM after entering the game].

Since it is the BGM on the login interface, it must be a looping section. It does not need to be very long, nor too short.

Moreover, there are many people who use WEgame, and it is estimated that many people cannot hear the BGM on the login interface.

After entering the game, the opening BGM also has its strict time limit.

It's too long, and when you start laning, you may be distracted, and you won't be able to match the music with the game.

If it is too short, the BGM will appear empty.

So, taking it all into consideration, these two can make the same piece of music.

Therefore, the reason why Li Shaojie started a custom game is actually to count the timing of the opening game.

Music is the art of time.

Have a good sense of time, and make a comfortable time distribution arrangement on the works, which will make people's experience more comfortable.

According to this time node, to create is definitely the most suitable creative idea.

Phrases, rhythms, note durations, layer development.

All need to be planned according to some time information in the game.

Yes.

If you want to have a sense of experience, you must work hard on such strange details.

So, after Li Shaojie opened several custom games, he confirmed these nodes according to the game content.

First of all, it is about three or four seconds of the opening.

Entering the game, the hero controlled by the player has not yet appeared in the blood pool of the base.

Until the first four seconds, the hero began to descend into the canyon.

After the arrival, the hero can speak some lines and is trapped in the blood pool by the blue light curtain. The disappearance time of this light curtain, that is to say, the time for the hero to walk out of the blood fountain and move freely is 15 seconds.

Therefore, the foreshadowing in the early stage of music should be based on this time-divided node to construct an ideological structure for the arrangement.

Because of the acceleration after leaving the blood pool, the hero can very quickly reach the river where the line or wild area meets the opponent.

If both sides are very aggressive, it takes about 30 seconds to meet the opponent's hero.

Even enough to fight hand to hand.

And it was about this time, the 35th second when the game started.

There will be a voice prompt.

[The enemy still has 30 seconds to reach the battlefield]

[Crush them! 】

Here, it is very suitable for some emotional waves or progress.

Not only does it conform to the background of the skin story, but it also allows the game to start, and the players can have a degree of excitement in their hearts.

Until 1 minute and 05 seconds, the base began to dispatch troops, accompanied by voice prompts.

【Army attack! 】

At this time, if you don't play a first-level group, you can let the music start to fall from the climax point.

And if you fight, you'll basically see blood and die, and it's okay to be sad. Even God TM fits the plot content exposed by the Star Guardian this time, and it fits perfectly.

The time for the first wave of soldiers to reach the line is 1 minute and 25 seconds.

At this time, more people choose to focus on the game, and this special BGM combination can be stopped.

Of course, the music and sound effects of returning to the city cannot be forgotten.

eight seconds.

After Li Shaojie calculated these figures.

Carefully start thinking about the rhythm distribution.

The first four seconds.
Exactly four quadruplets.

One beat per second, the quadruplet of four sixteenth notes going up, if played in the high register of the piano, is very consistent with the image of "starlight".

And with the beginning of the prelude, when the hero comes, you can start adding harmony.

Then start to enrich the thinking of the arrangement, strings, bass, and other high-pitched chords, all of which can be gradually accumulated.

When will it accumulate?

About 15 seconds later, when the hero can bleed the pool, a qualitative change will occur.

Li Shaojie thought about it carefully, and roughly wrote down the two-character arrangement in the music score.

human voice.

What sound can make people think of "starlight"?

The high range of the piano is very suitable.

Or make some modern modifications to the tone of the high register of the piano.

So, what sound can best add a layer of "empty universe" to the image of "starlight"?
Over there is the added bass.

And when the protagonist begins to appear on the stage, in the boundless cosmic starlight, what can best convey the texture of this "star guardian"?
That is vocal singing!
Moreover, it is best to sing with a female voice.

At this time, the sound of the piano "Starlight" that was the protagonist of the prelude can be diluted.

Began to become the starlight that sets off the star guardian.

And this female singing must be elevated to a certain level in 30 seconds.

But it can't explode, but there must be a feeling of being ready to go.

Easy to start drying racks.

And with the game voice.

[The enemy still has 30 seconds to reach the battlefield! 】

[Crush them! 】

But during the period of 35 seconds to 40 seconds, when the voice prompts, it is undoubtedly the best choice to choose half-stop to leave a little suspense.

And between 40 seconds and one minute, in order to create momentum for the "all army attack" at 1 minute and 05, it is necessary to reach a node of the music climax in this period.

After this paragraph, it begins to create a sense of loneliness and sadness, and slowly reduces the emotional waves of the music.

For the eight seconds of the sound effect of returning to the city, you need to choose a phrase at the end.

This is extremely demanding on the overall sense of rhythm.

It is based on these careful considerations.

It only took Li Shaojie one afternoon to complete the overall framework of this piece of music!
Next, is the official production!
　The new skin is coming soon, and this time the plot involves the concept of Star Avengers.

　　The Star Avengers feed on the Star Guardians, hunting down those on the verge of corruption, and completely consuming their light.Its connection with the guardians, and the reason why it is attracted to them, is still unclear (it is digging pits and waiting for the renewal of the next batch of skins).

　　ps, I just returned to the pit some time ago, it seems to have given me something, I opened it, and gave a star guard Nicole's skin, played a few big fights during the break, and it happened to be random.

　　Then I was amazed by the BGM that entered the map. I immediately opened the normal canyon map to see the relationship between BGM and time. As I expected, there are many things in it.

　　It seems that no one has said or written about this kind of detailed arrangement.

　　Then I'm welcome.
