Chapter 127: Life Needs a Sense of Ritual
Two days later. The day when "Nobody" officially started filming.
Chen, who had nothing to do, went out early.
I don't know what's going on, but he is actually a little excited in his heart.
Seriously, this is the first time he has walked into such a professional crew, and he is really a little looking forward to it.
At nine o'clock, he came to an old building according to the address given by Xu Bunian.
There is no elevator in this building, so it looks like it has some history.
Coming to the rooftop of the top floor with excitement, he saw that many crew members were nervously busy.
Seeing Chen Qi coming, Xu Bunian, Zhou Xiao, Zhao Wu and others all had bright eyes, and they all came over to greet him with some excitement.
They were really excited.
Zhou Xiao was excited because he finally had the opportunity to direct a movie again, and Xu Bunian and Zhao Wu were excited because they really participated in the filming of a movie for the first time.
Chen Qi also greeted them with a smile, and looked around curiously while greeting them.
This rooftop location is quite large, and I don't know how they found it.
After saying hello, Xu Bunian and Zhou Xiao also roughly told him about the various preparations for this play.
After listening perfunctorily for a while, Chen Qi simply interrupted, "Okay, okay, you can count these things, don't tell me." ”
Chen Qi doesn't care about actors, equipment, manpower, these things, he only cares about shooting.
"When is filming going to start?" he asked.
"We'll be able to start later. Zhou Xiao replied, and then solemnly introduced Chen Qi to the entire crew.
"Let me introduce to you, this is our investor in this show, and he is also the screenwriter of this show. Everyone will be polite when they see him in the future!"
Listening to the director's introduction, the staff at the scene were also slightly taken aback, and their eyes looking at Chen Qi became a little surprised.
Screenwriter?
Investor?
They really didn't expect this young man to be both a screenwriter and an investor.
The screenwriter is nothing, but the identity of the investor is very important.
Because of this heavy identity, some unmarried female staff at the scene couldn't help but look at him a little more. Of course, they shouldn't have any other ideas, and eighty percent of them are still envious.
"Hello everyone. Chen Qi also smiled and said hello to everyone.
Subsequently, the crew held a simple start-up ceremony.
The so-called start-up ceremony is actually an auspicious word such as wishing the shooting to start smoothly and getting started.
Although it is simple, in Zhou Xiao's words, this ceremony is still quite important. Only after such a ceremony will everyone think that this drama is really started.
Well, that's probably what people often say about living with a sense of ritual, right?
Without this ceremony, everyone would feel like something was missing.
After the start-up ceremony, filming officially began.
The filming location is just downstairs.
Chen Qi also read the script just now, and knew that what he wanted to shoot here was the plot after the two robbers broke into the heroine's house.
This is also the happiest plot in the whole film.
It is no exaggeration to say that this paragraph can be taken out separately to make a promotional video!
After coming to the house downstairs, Chen Qi found that the preparations before filming had been made, and the actors could shoot directly after they were in place.
"Is this just an empty house?" asked Chen Qi curiously.
"No, there are people living here, and we spent half a month to rent it. Xu Bunian said, "The money we gave was quite considerable, and we only used the living room, so the homeowner agreed very happily." ”
Chen Qi was stunned and didn't ask anything more.
"Come on, come on, the first one is ready!"
"Let's go!"
With Zhou Xiao's order, the on-site crew and actors quickly devoted themselves to filming.
Filming officially began.
Chen Qi watched from the side with interest, observing his every move very carefully without disturbing Zhou Xiao, including his use of color and lens.
At this moment, he himself couldn't help but sigh that he was comfortable in his crew, he could watch it however he wanted, and he didn't have to care about anyone's attitude!
"Stop, stop, you react slowly, you should react the moment the alcohol is poured. ”
"Don't have such a rich expression here, you have to remember that you are a person who begs for death!"
"Zhao Wu, you also have to have an expression after seeing his pain, the more shocked and unbelievable the better, like this......"
Zhou Xiao has his own understanding of the script, and he is also asking the actors to show it according to the effect he wants.
Chen Qi, who had the title of producer, just watched silently from the side, even if he saw that Zhou Xiao's performance was different from the Earth version, he didn't say anything.
Before signing the contract, they had already said that this was Zhou Xiao's movie, and he would not interfere in any way.
"Okay!"
"Next. ”
Filming is proceeding in an orderly manner.
Chen Qi has also been watching silently from the side.
A......
Two ......
Three ......
Zhou Xiao sorted out all the scenes in this house and filmed them one by one.
After filming the scenes here, they moved the equipment to the rooftop and began to shoot the scenes on the rooftop.
Unconsciously, half a month passed in a flash.
With the filming of this scene, all the scenes in the capital are over.
The crew is about to transition.
Because the background of this story is not in the capital, the crew has to leave the capital and go to other places.
In fact, Chen Qi also considered whether to simply change the background of the story to the capital, which would make it easier for him to learn from the teacher and reduce the trouble for the crew. But after he discussed this idea with Zhou Xiao, he still gave up very decisively.
In Zhou Xiao's words, the indoor drama in the capital is fine, but it is very difficult to coordinate the outdoor shooting location.
Not to mention anything else, all kinds of approval procedures alone are enough to give people a headache for a long time, and this kind of approval procedures cannot be done by small companies with ordinary approval procedures at all.
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Chen Qi gave up this idea in the end.
Chen Qi didn't plan to follow this transition.
It's true that he wants to steal from the teacher to learn the arts, but there is no need to follow it all the time.
That's too boring!
In the first half month, watching Zhou Xiao take a shot over and over again, he was about to vomit!
In the past, when he was filming "Wan Wan", he didn't feel anything because he was involved in it, but now, as a bystander, he found that it was a very boring and boring thing.
What's more, although he benefited a lot after watching Zhou Xiao's shooting, he still felt that if he really wanted to understand it, he still had to practice it himself.
If you're just watching, the speed of absorption is too slow.
