Slow work makes fine work.

Several people are inexperienced, Chen Minhao let Wang Ziqiu and Luo Jing's rivalry grind little by little, and buckle little by little. Chen Minhao also went on the stage from time to time to show them how to perform.

They then spent a morning filming: the cold eyes of Mr. Chan and Mr. Haon when they saw the argument between the driver and the passenger, the look of amusement on their faces when the driver and the passenger fought each other, and the remorse on their faces when the final violent impact sounded.

As for the tragedy of the car accident, Chen Minhao expressed it with an ambulance on the speeding road, coupled with the ambulance voice of "eiu, eiu~".

In the second paragraph, after the bus driver and passengers got into an argument, other passengers actively stepped forward to stop the shot, which was relatively simple, but it also took 2 days.

"Okay, all the scenes have been filmed, and everyone has been working hard lately. Chen Minhao took the lead in applauding.

Wang Ziqiu touched his double chin and said, "Let's have a finale banquet, let's go to the barbecue stall we went to last time." ”

Because the filming was completed, and the next day was a weekend without classes, several people let go of drinking.

Before leaving, Zhang Xiaolong, who vomited, asked Chen Minhao: "Do you need him to help edit?"

"No need, you've been working hard lately, I'll cut it myself. ”

"But your acting department probably doesn't have editing software courses. ”

Chen Minhao smiled and said, "You don't need to spend time learning this, I'll study the basic functions myself for an hour or two." ”

Zhang Xiaolong glanced at Chen Minhao resentfully, and thought: I was wrong, I forgot that I was a student who could be admitted to Mizuki and Kyoto in front of me, and a software use should be a small case for him. I can't shine when I work with people like that.

Chen Minhao didn't care what he was thinking, and directly asked Chen Qiang to take him home, Chen Minhao sat in the back of the car and kept thinking about a question, how to edit.

At present, there are more than 30 hours of footage, and of course, most of them are useless. But he had to select about 3 minutes of footage from the more than 30 hours of footage to compose the work.

No matter how vivid the performance is, how vivid and twisty the plot is, what is finally presented in front of the audience must be in the form of an edited work. If the cut is messy, the audience can only be confused when they see it, then there is no way to talk about the inner touch.

In the next two days, Chen Minhao was so busy editing videos that he didn't have time to practice in the library, and even asked Kang Hui to postpone an advertisement.

Kang Hui expressed her understanding and support on the phone, but as a price, she successfully booked all the time before the start of filming after Chen Minhao's final exam.

In this way, Chen Minhao eliminated all interference and devoted himself to editing, the direction of Chen Minhao's editing is relatively clear, and by comparing the two different practices and consequences, it touches people's hearts and strengthens everyone's sense of social responsibility.

He wrote the script, and he was the main one who was in charge of the filming during the shooting, so it stands to reason that the editing work should be quite easy to do.

But Chen Minhao's perfectionist tendencies began to crawl out again.

For example, there are two shots in the same plot, which one to choose? Chen Minhao is not sure which shot can arouse the audience's touch more, because this is different from doing a math problem, there is no clear right or wrong. can only cut himself off again and again, substituting himself as an audience watching it for the first time.

Mr. Chen's editing work progressed slowly in a tangle, but he occasionally cut out some of the edits.

Chen Minhao didn't have many roles in this performance, and it was not particularly difficult, but because of the editing, his understanding of acting reached a new stage, and he felt that he was better at acting, or more precisely, he knew how to better cooperate with the director in the future.

If performance is compared to the production of raw materials, then editing is the processed product.

Through this semester's small project, Chen Minhao's "upstream and downstream supply chain" was opened. After Chen Minhao did an edit, he had an in-depth understanding of what raw materials the director needed.

Chen Minhao likes to do things synthesically. A simple three-minute video, Chen Minhao has been editing since 10 o'clock in the morning, except for eating, he has been sitting in front of the computer, repeatedly watching the material, and carefully comparing.

The sun went down, the moon rose, and time passed minute by minute, until the sun was about to rise again, and Chen Minhao's editing work was completed. He reads it over and over again with satisfaction, makes sure there are no problems, saves it, and shuts it down.

Chen Minhao rubbed his temples and shook his head again, he didn't take off his clothes and went to bed directly.

When he woke up, it was a little dark. He rubbed his chicken nest, picked up his phone from the bedside table, and looked at the time.

Half past five in the afternoon. Chen Minhao estimated that he slept at about 6 o'clock in the morning, and now at 5:30 in the afternoon, he has slept for almost 12 hours.

Chen Minhao simply washed up, watched the video again a few times, and sent a copy to Director Zhao through the mailbox.

Later, he sent another copy to the three roommates and reminded them that this was only a first draft and should not be shown to anyone.

Director Zhao called after a while and said, "Xiao Chen, I watched the video you sent me, it's good, the content is very profound, and it has great social and educational significance." And your acting skills have improved, it's obvious!

You can see that the expressions of the driver and the passenger when they are arguing are in place, although there is no speech or action, but a few expressions can let the audience see what you are thinking. That's right, Xiao Chen, you've officially started acting.

By the way, I heard that you won the role of Shao Fei in "Detective", congratulations. However, after watching your performance, I think you can challenge some villains with complex personalities in the future. ”

Chen Minhao smiled and said, "Thank you Director Zhao for mentioning it." ”

Zhao Yao continued to smile and said: "I listened to you last time, you did this script, director and editing, I feel that you have a bit of talent, are you interested in digging deeper on the road of directing?"

"Not at the moment. Chen Minhao said honestly: "Although I feel that directing and editing are quite fun, my focus in recent years is still to focus on acting and music. ”

A person's time and energy are limited, but their desires are infinite, so they must give up and focus their time and energy on a limited direction in order to succeed.

Most people don't fail because they don't have enough potential or don't work hard enough, it's because they spread their potential in too many directions.

Chen Minhao saw a saying in his previous life, called "the curse of good ideas", which means that many people have good ideas, or a lot of potential for success. But when you want too much, you cancel each other out.

Chen Minhao plans to achieve the ultimate in singing and acting, and then think about other things. In today's society, it is much better to have one skill than to be complete and not perfect.
