Chapter 126: Stage Discussion
"The rest of the crew is easy to say, just the photographer...... Do you have any other candidates on your side?" Hou Jiashi looked at the list that had been brushed off again, still calm.
For a rookie director who is making a movie for the first time, it is normal to be cautious in choosing the photographer to work with.
If Lin Qingcha had chosen a photographer quickly and casually, Hou Jiashi would have worried.
If you can find a cinematographer who is very suitable for the first film, it is a very lucky thing for a director, and it will be much easier to make a film later.
Just like Zhang Yutang, he and Chang Nan are recognized as golden partners in the industry.
Although for most people who don't know much about this industry, they may only know Zhang Yutang's name, but those who know will know that the honor won by Zhang Yutang is also the mutual fulfillment of Chang Nan and Zhang Yutang.
Zhang Yutang is missing Chang Nan, Zhang Yutang will still have some achievements, but it may not have such great achievements as now.
Similarly, if Chang Nan hadn't met Zhang Yutang, he might not have spared as much room for his abilities as he is now, and he would not have become a well-known photographer in the industry and won many best photography awards at home and abroad.
Lin Qingcha also looked at the list and pursed her lips slightly, she had a lot of experience in this.
In her previous life, because she didn't find a photographer partner who was incomparably compatible, she needed to spend a lot of time running in with the photographer every time, and finally although she had a fixed photographer partner, it was after many times of cooperation, and the photographer got used to her way and accommodated her, not because of the fit and tacit understanding between the two people.
Lin Qingcha spent ten years in his last life before he got to Berlin, in addition to the reason of becoming a monk halfway, it is also very important that he does not have a compatible partner......
In the absence of a very compatible partner, the relationship between the director and the cinematographer depends on who is strong, and the lens style is biased.
And Lin Qingcha has always been that strong.
However, this is the next best option.
To do it all over again, she wanted to try her best and do her best.
Lin Qingcha marked a few names on the list before saying, "It's not for the time being, but I still want to find it again, and I will definitely determine the candidate before the schedule." ”
"Okay. Lin Qingcha made a guarantee, and Hou Jiashi was willing to believe her, "In addition to this, the progress of the storyboard should not fall behind, and I have to break it down according to your progress script." ”
Lin Qingcha nodded: "Before going to Cannes, the storyboard should be almost complete." ”
"The opening of Cannes is on May 19th, when are you going to go?"
"Just arrive on the 18th, and this time I went to Cannes much easier than the last time I went to the Kyoto University Student Film Festival. Lin Qingcha shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "This time it's a director's fortnight, you don't need to bring the crew, just go alone, and you don't need to walk the red carpet, just dress a little more formally, and you don't need to make too much preparation." ”
Hou Jiashi also smiled slightly: "That's true, but it's not easy to go to Cannes once, and you can also get to know some other international directors, learn more things, and broaden your network." ”
"Hmm. ”
"One more thing, the issue of the promotion of the film. ”
Lin Qingcha nodded and looked at Hou Jiashi and listened to him carefully.
"The funds for "Waiting Alone" are not very large, and from our point of view, most of the funds must be used for filming and post-production, so in terms of publicity, we have to think of ways to save money and be practical. ”
Lin Qingcha agreed with what Hou Jiashi said, and thinking of the mention of Cannes just now, she thought for a while: "You mean, use this time to go to Cannes to promote it?"
"Yes, not everyone can afford to go to Cannes, so it makes sense to use this publicity. Hou Jiashi nodded.
Lin Qingcha put down the pen and folded his hands slightly: "It's not impossible, it's just that "Waiting Alone" is still in the preliminary preparation part, and nothing has been done yet, so I'm worried that the publicity in May will be a little early." ”
"Not early. Hou Jiashi replied with certainty, "It's because there are too many things that are not ready now, and you need to promote it more, whether it is the movie itself or yourself." ”
"You are still a newcomer, and after you have some popularity, it will be more beneficial for you to find actors and collaborators, and it can also give investors more confidence, and maybe you can make additional investments. ”
Lin Qingcha thought about it carefully and accepted this statement.
After all, she doesn't have much experience in the current propaganda part, and Hou Jiashi's proposal makes sense, and she will choose to accept it.
Seeing that Lin Qingcha agreed, Hou Jiashi immediately recorded the next agenda in his notebook, and then said: "In this case, a week before you go to Cannes, I will ask someone to prepare a publicity plan for you, and if you have any ideas about publicity in the middle, you can also discuss it again." ”
“ok。 ”
……
After agreeing on the general things at this stage, the two of them went their separate ways to get busy with their own part of the work.
Hou Jiashi was dealing with the various matters in the early stage of "Waiting Alone", and at the same time thinking about Lin Qingcha.
Judging from this part of the early cooperation, Lin Qingcha is the most tacit one among the rookie directors he has worked with, and he is also the most optimistic one.
Lin Qingcha knows his strengths and weaknesses very well, when dealing with the affairs of the movie, the strong part is strong, and the part he doesn't know very well, he will never make a blind decision, he will listen to his opinions carefully, and he is willing to believe him.
Not strong, not dependent, clear-headed, professionalism is good.
Hou Jiashi thought that if the whole movie is cooperated, in the middle and late stages, Lin Qingcha can still maintain his current state, and even play better during the filming process, he has to try his best to keep this talent for his new company and sign her.
……
Lin Shi felt that when Hou Jiashi talked to him about the company's affairs recently, he always seemed to mention Lin Qingcha's recent situation to him, intentionally or unintentionally......
I don't know if it's because Hou Jiashi has been busy with Lin Qingcha's movie project recently, or because of something else.
However, he didn't say anything, Hou Jiashi mentioned it, and he was happy to listen.
"Hour, what do you think, what if I sign Lin Qingcha for Hanging Sun?"
Lin Shi saw Hou Jiashi send him such a message on WeChat.
Sign Lin Qingcha?
He thought about it, if he could sign it, it would be good.
Before, You Yu asked him to sign Lin Qingcha to his studio, but he refused, but he didn't expect that after a turn, Lin Qingcha came to the hanging sun again.
He smiled, but this was just his personal idea, Hanging Sun was established, and he had made it clear when he became a shareholder that he would not interfere too much in Hanging Sun's work, and it was the same now.
"If you think she's good, you can try. Lin Shi replied.
