The following introduces the common movements and slogans of making a call. You can view the above video (please scroll to the bottom if you find it annoying)
1. Forward wave : Swing forward once every beat (or every two beats)
2. Fast swing: Usually held high above the head, swing forward once every beat, usually used in fast-paced songs
3. Hit: In beats 1 3 5 7 of each section, point the fluorescent stick downward to the chest, and in beat 2 4 6 8 raise it to the height of your head (you can also raise it above your head) and swing it forward. The effect is ↓ ↑ ↓ ↑
4. Li jump: When hitting 2 4 6 8 beats, wave the light stick forward and shout hi! You can also jump at the same time
5. Updraft: Usually in a melody without drum beats (such as lyrical), the action of moving the light stick forward and slowly upwards above your head, usually 4 beats at a time, In some cases, you can also take 2 shots at a time or 8 shots at a time. When all the audience do this action, the effect is like the audience working together to lift up the performers on the stage, which is in line with the lyrical atmosphere.
6. GT Alarm: Usually shout hi! Hi! Hihihihi - The first two hi's are shouted 2 beats at a time, and the last 4 are shouted one beat at a time. Before raising the alarm, the call leader will shout seno (せーの! means prepare).
*In some cases, the last two 8 beats are called hi--- hi--- hi- hi- hihihihi. The first 2 hi's are shouted for 4 beats at a time, and the next 6 hi's are the same as above.
The GT alarm is usually used to bring in Bmelo and then shout PPPH. There are also cases where the last 8 beats of the chorus sound the alarm and lead into another chorus, and there is no PPPH at this time. There is also the possibility of composing an alarm at a specific location.
7. PPPH: The prototype is "Papa Papa Oi"! The first three times were clapping. The commonly used form of PPPH is this.
o-- hi! The previous o is called 3 beats, and the fluorescent stick is placed in front of the chest or lowered. On the fourth beat hi, the fluorescent stick is raised high and waved forward. You can also jump up.
8. Other common slogans: fuu - often used for several consecutive accents in accompaniment. For example, the song Sister's Noise has three accents at the end of the intro. At this time, the audience will shout fuu fuu fuu based on these three accents!
Hi (or o-- hi!), fuufuu, fuwa×4 in the chorus - slogans between the two lyrics of the chorus, how to use them depends on the rhythm and melody. The usual usage is (here, take the lyrics of the chorus of Pure Land of Paradise as an example):
歌えや歌え心のままに
fuufuu! fuufuu!
アナタの声をさぁ
文かせて
fuwafuwafuwafuwa
·Or this (take sister's noise as an example):
p>
Who's here?
o-- hi!
その声は聴こ
えなくて
fuwafuwafuwafwua
9. Sing along: in some accents or with special meanings One or two words or phrases of the song were sung by the entire audience. (Note that sing-alongs rarely last for a long time. If one audience sings the whole song, it will affect the surrounding audience, and if a group of audience sings the whole song, it will overwhelm the audience. Of course, except for songs with special meanings.)
There are three more Segment mixes, name mixes, etc. are usually used in the live performances of 48-series or similar idols. There are many types, which are more complicated and difficult to remember. They are used in fewer occasions (relatively speaking).
I won’t go into details here.
In live, calling is to support the performers on the stage. Every audience, every performer, and backstage staff are part of the live, so there is no such thing as calling for XXX. It's disrespectful to only support the people you like and ignore others.
Support is not mandatory. Of course you can sit quietly and watch the show (you may not see anything while sitting because other audience members are standing). There is no unique way to play. For example, some places with updrafts are also suitable for forward swings. At this time, it can be based on personal preference.
In live, calling is basically not used. Because there is no stage, no songs, no crowds of spectators and no performers. Just like if you shout the above slogan alone on the street, or do these actions when meeting your idol without any suitable songs, it will make you look like a psycho.
The effect of calling is to enliven the atmosphere, but the act itself does not mean to enliven the atmosphere. It’s not about increasing popularity, applause, etc. Calling is a way to support and interact between the audience and the audience.
A group of people who professionally guide other viewers to call correctly is called a call leader (jokingly called: Ji Lide in Chinese), not a call master. We are very happy that slapping can appear in Flash Girl movies, but the occasion and slogan of slapping are problematic. In addition, several Ji Lide were invited to the scene, and the host played a piece of music that was not suitable for call-calling at all, saying that we would like to invite several professional call-callers to perform a call-calling session for us - this was a big mistake. Calling is not a performance at all, but a way of supporting a performance, and not all songs can be called.
I hope this answer and video can help everyone better understand what calling means and how to play it. You can also search for live videos to see how the audience cheers. Don't continue to follow the trend and talk about crazy calls for xxx. This is very ridiculous.
