These actors trained for months to pull up to eight G's.

為承受 8G 重力，這些演員訓練了好幾個月。

And cameras mounted inside of the F-18s captured real intense flying.

還有在 F-18 戰機內部安裝的攝影機，只為捕捉激烈的飛行實況。

Just look at the ripples on Jay Ellis' face.

看看傑・艾利斯臉上的紋路就知道了。

It's called The DarkStar and it uses hypersonic technology,

它叫「暗星號」，使用的是高超音速科技，

a tool that's in development by Lockheed Martin

是洛克希德·馬丁公司正在開發的一種技術。

but nowhere near ready to be used like Tom Cruise's Pete "Maverick" Mitchell does.

但此技術遠未達可使用程度，無法達成「獨行俠」彼得·米契爾 (湯姆·克魯斯飾) 的操作。

from Tom Cruise's convincing sweating and heavy breathing to the impeccable VFX.

從湯姆·克魯斯令人信服的出汗及沉重的呼吸到無可挑剔的視覺效果都是。

But the thing that grounds it for me is the sound design,

My job on Top Gun: Maverick was  to define the soundscape for the film,

我在《捍衛戰士：獨行俠》中，負責定義聲音場景。

Expectations were high. The bar was very high.

It always needed to be  as best as it could be.

所有時刻都必須盡力做到最好。

When Al's team first got  the mach 10 sequence, it sounded something like this:

當艾爾的團隊第一次拿到 10 馬赫片段時，它聽起來是這樣的。

該怎麼讓一架虛擬飛機看起來像真的？

It's not an F-18. It's not a fighter jet.

與之相比，暗星號要優雅得多。

And one of the things that was important was for that to be believable as well.

而其中一件重要的事，就是要讓觀眾相信這一點。

暗星號不應該聽起像電動音效。

You think, of course, of Star Wars, you know, the tie fighters are amazing

當然，說到科幻片就會想到《星際大戰》，鈦戰機絕對令人驚艷，

but they're sci fi and they used elephants to make them.

但那是科幻作品，他們用大象叫聲來做音效。

And so we worked hard, lots of field trips to aircraft carriers,

所以我們做了很多努力，多次實地考察航空母艦，

cross-country trips for jet engines and auxiliary power units.

橫越國家數次只為勘查噴射引擎和輔助動力系統。

We are trying to tell the story of Maverick's flight.

我們很盡力在詮釋「獨行俠」的飛行。

Everything we're hearing and seeing should feel as real as it can feel

電影中所聽到和看到的一切應該儘可能貼近真實，

so that we're experiencing  this with him.

And Al's job was to make sure that the experience captured all the intensity of Maverick pushing the DarkStar to its limits.

艾爾的工作就是確保電影能體現出「獨行俠」將暗星號推向極限的強度及緊張感。

It starts with sounds of technology that we're familiar with.

就從大家熟悉的科技發出的聲音開始。

So when you see Maverick launch, he's using turbines.

「獨行俠」起飛時，用到的是渦輪機。

We wanted it to have punch and feel high tech.

我們希望它強而有力，同時又有高科技的感覺。

Maverick gets up in the air and as he starts passing new thresholds...

「獨行俠」升空，而當突破新門檻時…

that starts a simmering build of tension.

we're being trained to know that this tone will keep repeating until we get to the coveted mach 10.

這麼做會讓觀眾知道，這聲音將不斷重複，直到達到夢寐以求的 10 馬赫。

this time using technology that most of us don't yet have a reference for.

用的是大多數人還不熟悉的技術。

A scramjet uses the speed of the jet to intake oxygen,

超音速燃燒衝壓引擎利用射流的速度吸入氧氣，

which ignites the fuel as opposed to a turbine.

從而點燃燃料，而非使用渦輪機。

A turbine can only spin so fast and can only generate so much oxygen to ignite a fuel.

渦輪機轉速只能如此，只能產生一定的氧氣來點燃燃料。

All of that process needed to be articulated sonically.

這些過程都得用聲音表達出來。

He kicks it in the scramjet, and then you see the turbines close,

他切換到超燃衝壓引擎，然後你看到渦輪關閉，

and you see the tube open up in the back of the DarkStar.

接著暗星號後方的管道開開啟。

you've got this flow of air going into the jet system and igniting that fuel and creating that rocket.

氣流已進入噴射系統點燃燃料並產生火箭推進。

可以看到獨行俠不再看起來那麼不適。

And the soundscape reflects that by becoming slightly more subdued.

而此處聲景為反映這點也變得較為平緩。

The other thing we're doing specifically with DarkStar is

我們專門為暗星號特別做的另一件事是

we are trying to tell the story of his joy of being in this flight and achieving that which no one has done before.

我們很努力試著去描繪主角執行此次飛行，實現前所未有成就的喜悅。

And so there are moments where we're just with him as he's smiling.

有些時候，觀眾就只是和他一起感受他的喜悅和笑容。

The plane-focused sound design pulls back and other elements take the forefront.

這時，飛行器音效就會縮小收回，讓其他元素去主導。

It's a lot of layers, but it's also... it's not necessarily accumulating.

這邊聲景很多層次，但也不一定是疊加的。

You know, when he says, "Talk to me, Goose."

當他說：「告訴我該怎麼做，呆頭鵝。」

there's not a lot else going on because we are with him emotionally.

這段沒有什麼特別突出的音效，因為我們專注在情感上。

You see the DarkStar go off in the distance.

你可以看到暗星號在遠處離去。

So you don't need a lot from us  at that point.

這時，我們不需要加上太多音效。

And we're just a dot and we're just a little rip as you hear it.

暗星號只是一個點，只有劃破空氣的聲音。

掃過空中，這樣我們就可以跟著它的軌跡，

and then the music drops out  very dramatically and we cut to him...

然後音樂非常戲劇性地消失，接著鏡頭切到主角…

And you feel a little bit of shaking and you hear that turbine kick on and you feel those thrusters.

你感覺到不穩，聽到渦輪機啟動的聲音，並感受到推進。

Instead of having all these clips sound fade into each other, you feel every single cut.

沒有使用淡入淡出的手法，你能清楚感受到每段音效的切換。

he said, "The cuts have to hit. They have to punch."

他說：「聲音必須有衝擊感，必須強而有利。」

And it's a style that the first Top Gun established.

這是第一部《捍衛戰士》所確立的風格。

That aggressive cutting style of cutting from inside and being just dialogue

那種有侵略性的剪輯風格，從中切割，單獨留出對話，

and rather quiet to banging on to the exteriors.

相對安靜的內部與外部聲效的對比感。

這讓這種剪輯非常具有侵略性。

It makes the film feel aggressive and dangerous and it propels us in the story.

這讓片段十分具侵略性且危險，推著我們與劇情一同前進。
