Chapter 9: A Female Reporter in Black

In fact, Chen Fan also felt that the name of passer-by's dream showbiz was rotten.

It's not that he doesn't want to make some cows, but the reality is not a novel, you can surprise the four people as soon as you cross it?

The film and television industry in this time and space has matured, and Chen Fan only knows a little about making films, making a movie is not something you want to make.

As a director, you have to know what an independent film is and a commercial film, an independent film, the director controls everything, everyone is for the director, and the director's idea is completed as much as possible, from the script to the performance to the final editing.

There are different voices, and they are mainly based on the director's idea, and the director agrees with the idea, and the idea can be realized.

In commercial films, it depends on how much authority the director has, for example, in Hollywood, most directors do not have the right to make final cuts. So in a producer-centric film project, the director's role is to take the work done by other departments for the producer's idea, and implement it into each shot. Although the work is similar to that of an independent film director, the director has little decision-making power at this time, and is just serving the producer's ideas.

Let's talk about the director himself, as can be seen from the name "director": "directing performances".

Film and television are also a type of drama, so the essence of film and television directors is the same as that of theater directors, that is, according to the script blueprint provided by the screenwriter, the market intention of the producer company, and sometimes the willingness of investors, guide all the performance teams such as actors, photography, lighting, special effects, etc., and show the story to the audience in the form of actual performances.

There used to be a joke that a person went to the crew to apply for a job, and when asked what he was good at, he couldn't answer anything, he was arranged to be a director.

Starting from this joke, the director is actually a miscellaneous person. Let's be serious. It's not that a director doesn't know anything, but he should know a little bit about everything, and the courses of the director department of the film school will be involved in all departments.

Moreover, the director is the person responsible for the final quality of the film. A movie is good, and everyone may say that the actors play well and the script is well written. But if a movie has a bad response, everyone will basically say that the director is stupid X. This is the director's life. Who made you fail to coordinate all aspects and fail to grasp the quality of the film.

Combined with the above overview, the director should basically do:

One: grasp the story. Be sure to change a version of the script yourself.

Two: select the main actors. And communicate with the actor to ensure that the actor fully understands the role, and it is best to stimulate the actor's creative desire and let him surprise you.

Three: Communicate with photography. Tell yourself what you need, what you want, what you want to do, and what you want to do in post.

Four: Communicate with the art department. Determine the style of the scene, the type and style of the actor's costume (remember not to make common-sense mistakes in costume dramas and period dramas), and determine the makeup style of the actor, which is the customization.

Five: Communicate with the production department and try to get the shooting plan as fast and economical as possible.

Six: Have a good relationship with your boss. After all, the director also works part-time.

Seven: On the set, determine your own authoritative position and establish a good rapport with various departments. If there is friction in some departments, you need to be able to minimize the damage in the first place.

Eight: While taking into account all of the above, we must also adhere to our own artistic pursuits, ensure the artistic quality of the film, and break through our own artistic confinement. I think that's the most important thing. But if you can't do the above seven things, this will not be possible.

This is the most basic. If you do it, you may not be qualified, but if you don't do it, you will not be qualified.

After watching so much, do you suddenly feel that being a director is actually quite hard, isn't it that you can make movies and release music albums after you cross over, you don't even understand music theory when you make music, and you still want to post a song that is popular all over the world?

Before you crossed, you knew that this song would definitely be a hit song, but after you crossed over, you wouldn't be able to arrange or compose music, and you might not be able to make that song if you have lyrics.

Now Chen Fan has encountered this kind of problem, he can't make movies, he doesn't know how to be a director at all, but he is not useless, he has been doing marketing for seven or eight years, especially in entertainment.

This era is basically the same as the earth before the crossing, but there is not one thing here, that is, "hype marketing to buy water army notices", Chen Fan crossed to see the news and found it, and he wanted to apply what he had learned.

Will he become a poisonous current in the entertainment industry of this world, will he be shouted and beaten by everyone in the end, and he may also be notorious.

But Chen Fan thought about it, if he didn't do it, wouldn't anyone not do it?

"Principal Wan, you and I have thought together, for the sake of my alma mater, for the sake of seniors, seniors, and sisters, I have decided that within my maximum authority, I can add a few places for assistant directors, and let everyone participate as much as possible. Chen Fan asked experimentally.

This sentence made Wan Qingguo speechless instantly, because he couldn't think of any well-known directors after graduating from this school, the most famous alumni of this school, and there is no first-line star at present.

Wan Qingguo thought about it, looked for it in the address book on his mobile phone, and said after a long time: "You also know the situation of the directing department of our school, why don't you call back your senior brothers who have traveled across the ocean? They are now all directors who make dozens of films a year." ”

"Okay~ Okay. "Chen Fan has no choice, and those senior brothers who have experience in filming are the only ones, but will they make a film with clothes on?

Wan Guoqing pulled a group, and then sent a message into the group, several senior brothers heard that they could participate in a 100 million theater movie, and they had already booked air tickets, and they would come back together when the project in hand was completed, and asked Chen Fan how long it would take to start work.

"What else do you need, tell me, I'll do what I can to help you. Wan Qingguo said.

Chen Fan has a bottom in his heart at this time, he has helped seven or eight little fresh meat in his previous life to do traffic pushing, although he was scolded for his incomplete body, but one thing can be determined, as long as he can market, a piece of can become a fragrant smell that everyone grabbs.

"Principal, don't worry, I will definitely do my best for my alma mater, it would be nice if I could get some sponsorship, after all, I brought so many people from the school into the crew, I'm afraid that the investor will have some opinions. Chen Fan said.

"Don't worry about this, I still have some connections, I know a lot of entrepreneurs, I'll help you pull sponsorship. ”

"Thank you so much, so that I have some confidence in front of the capital. Chen Fan said without blushing or being ashamed.

Knock knock~

There was a knock on the door, and Principal Wan shouted to please come in, but Chen Fan saw a beautiful woman with a microphone and a baby face wearing a black suit, a pair of black stockings, a pair of black high heels, and a big man carrying a camera behind him.

Director Fan walked in and said, "Chen Fan, this is a reporter from the provincial station, and I want to give you an exclusive interview." ”
