Chapter 075: The Strongest
Bai Shi Film and Television plans to set "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" in early March, and therefore, producer Qian Mei has been urging the director to make progress recently.
There are many factors in the finalization of this movie, such as Li Zaoyu's "Fan Xian", which started filming relatively early, and the scheduled time was at the end of February, she felt a little anxious, so she was more surprised by the works that might collide with the works written, directed and acted by her predecessors.
For this surprise and inexplicable uneasiness, she followed the crew the next day.
Gan Jing pondered that the housekeeper had not yet selected a good candidate for an aunt, so he agreed, and one more person who was familiar with it would take care of it.
So, on the first day of the three-year-old Gan Xuesi's official work, she was escorted to the crew by two professional actors, her hair was watermelon peel trimmed by her father himself, she was carrying a gift pink backpack personally selected by her aunt, and her clothes were blue jeans and pants from top to bottom, and her shoes were the kind of black and white shoes that could shine with one step.
Gan Xuesi walked away from the taxi very imposingly and vigorously, and when she was about to arrive at the set of "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", she shook off the hand held by her father, turned her head and said seriously: "Daddy, I will grow up from today on." ”
Gan Jing smiled dumbly: "Growing up and holding hands are not in conflict." ”
Gan Xuesi's thinking just now suddenly froze, she thought about it, and there seemed to be no problem with what her father said, so the big and small hands that had just been released were held together again.
The two of them walked in front, and Li Zaoyu walked behind with a smile.
At 7:20 in the morning, producer Qian Mei had already arrived, she was directing the crew's set, and when she turned her head and saw the father and daughter coming, she greeted them with a smile.
"This is really a father's way to bring his daughter to a father, Sisi is such a beautiful girl who was taken into a tomboy by you. Qian Mei looked at Gan Xuesi, who was dressed in blue jeans, and laughed at her father's aesthetics.
Gan Jing let go of his hand and let his daughter come forward to say hello, he touched his chin and re-examined his dress, but he still felt that there was no problem, and he was very energetic.
When he arrived on the set, Gan Jing was not just a father who thought twice, he asked Li Zaoyu to help watch his daughter and begin to fulfill his duties as a director, sets, supporting roles, props, costumes, and photography......
After nearly a month of filming, some of Gan Jing's personal habits have been familiar to the crew, so the time required for these preparations before the official start of filming is getting shorter and shorter.
In the morning, at half past eight, everyone was in place and ready to shoot.
Today, Gan Jing's role for his daughter is not difficult, and the first scene is a normal hand-holding walk by the side of the road.
How difficult is this kind of drama...... It's not difficult, it's really just that it takes more time to simply put on makeup and change clothes than it does for formal shooting.
Before the field notes were played, Gan Jing said to his daughter: "Come, lead my father and walk from this side to the front street." ”
After the scene notes were played, Gan Jing took his daughter and walked away for a while and said, "Okay, the performance is over, think twice, you did a good job." ”
The first scene, this is the end.
From beginning to end, Gan Xuesi only felt embarrassed, and when she heard her father say that she was finished, she asked in surprise: "Daddy, this is the film?"
Gan Jing said happily: "Yes, otherwise?"
Gan Xuesi was a little confused, at this moment she thought of the young lady who was said to cry by her father yesterday, but the next moment she put aside this thought and asked happily: "Daddy, where is my weekly salary?"
The little girl was very impressed by the word "weekly salary" because she felt that it was a very cool word.
"Weekly salary, weekly salary, of course, it will only be paid after a week of performance. Gan Jing said as a matter of course, and took his daughter to the monitor to look at the picture just now, well, a very good picture of the father and daughter walking, no problem at all.
"Director Xia, let's prepare for the next scene. Gan Jing smiled.
In the next second, he put away the smile on his face and said officially: "We can push the shooting progress forward." ”
Assistant director Xia Yan nodded, and didn't take it too seriously, she saw the urging of producer Qian Mei in the past few days, however, is this something you want to be fast?
It turns out......
In such an industry as film, Xia Yan still has a lot of practical homework to learn even though he has returned from studying abroad.
Scenery, costume changes, propulsion.
Re-set, re-dress, re-propulsion.
After Gan Xuesi joined the crew, the filming seemed to change from walking to riding in a car.
Xia Yan once felt that Gan Jing had lowered her requirements for the sake of the employer's requirements, but she witnessed all kinds of scenes in front of the monitor, and she was a little suspicious of each other's talents.
It is said that this Gan Jing was a real acting major in Chinese opera back then! Could it be that the acting major of Chinese opera still teaches how to direct?
Such an idea was born, and Xia Yan further doubted the gender difference in this industry, and there is no doubt that men account for an absolute proportion of the great directors.
Can......
Seeing the scenes in the script being filmed, she still couldn't help but want to ask in person, how can you be so fast?
The speed of the crew's operation and filming not only shocked the assistant director Xia Yan, but at the same time, the producer Qian Mei was also quite shocked, she didn't doubt herself like Xia Yan, she really asked.
"Director Gan, the company is just planning to release it in March, and it's not very stuck. Qian Mei thought that Gan Jing was influenced by this notice, "We can't sacrifice quality for speed." ”
Gan Jing found that Qian Mei, a producer, always likes to come over when she asks questions to herself, is she afraid that she will beat her up if she asks a question that makes her unhappy?
He felt the makeup artist's drawing on his face, and said motionlessly: "You have watched the content taken every day, and I don't think there is any problem." ”
"But, isn't there too little backup?" Qian Mei frowned and asked, "It seems that there is not much room for editing?"
A work presented to the audience is discarded through various editing, and those parts that are cut out of course also need to be filmed, in the order of shooting first and then cutting.
Now, the way Gan Jing's advancement is expressed is linear and straight, leaving almost no superfluous scenes.
In addition to one of the filming schedules that really need to be accelerated, Gan Jing also has a consideration that he didn't plan to say, Bai Shi Film and Television promised that he could make the first cut of the work by himself, but he couldn't control what the second and third cuts would be made in the final release.
Since you can't control it, it's better to give them a unique solution, there are so many in total, and you can't cut it out if you want to.
"You read the script. Gan Jing sat on the bench and was quite surprised by the acumen of producer Qian Mei, "Although this script is not new, its structure is definitely qualified and complete." ”
"Director Gan, the makeup is ready. Makeup artist He Li took two steps back and said a word.
Gan Jing nodded at her and turned his head and said sincerely to producer Qian Mei: "I think the content that has been filmed so far is in line with the script and the quality is qualified, of course, if you have specific opinions, you can also put forward them, after all, I am the first time to be a director." ”
Qian Mei was a little suspicious, and always felt that behind the smile on the director's face was another taste, but after thinking about the quality of the pictures she could see every day, she didn't worry about it anymore, and just said with half admiration: "From Sisi to the group, our crew is shooting much faster." ”
Gan Jing stood up and said with a smile: "Of course." When I'm not only a director, but also a father, then I'm the strongest. ”
