Chapter 341: Casting (2)
Since Lin Su talked about the topic of actor selection, he naturally had his own intentions, so he then asked: "Director Zhu, what are your target candidates for these roles?"
"The heroine's preferred target is Liu Rongrong, the three alternatives are Wen Yao, Zhang Qian and Ning Xin'er, and the three alternatives for the male protagonist...... Well, I'll take a picture for you later. ”
Director Zhu changed his mind as he spoke.
He picked a total of more than a dozen actors this time, considering that some of them had worked with Lin Su and some of them she didn't know, plus some information, she really couldn't tell her on the phone, so she planned to send her a detailed casting information, and just let her help with reference and give advice.
This proposal was thinking to Lin Su, "Okay, it's troublesome to Director Zhu." ”
"Don't bother, I'm hoping you can participate in the casting. Director Zhu also said openly, we are partners who have worked together several times, and each other's vision and ability are probably clear, and they can cooperate tacitly.
"Haha...... If Director Zhu doesn't dislike me for interfering in your work, I'll give you feedback after watching the actors?"
"Then we'll settle it. Director Zhu hurriedly responded, and did not forget to add: "If anyone has any questions, they can come to me at any time." ”
Although he is familiar with the script and has made a detailed analysis of the characters in it, Lin Su is a screenwriter who created these characters and must know the characters better than anyone else, so she has a lot to say in the choice of actors.
Lin Su soon received the actor's information.
Except for Wen Yao, she is not familiar with the others, and she has an impression of everyone after reading the information carefully, "Judging from Director Zhu's remarks, these actors are indeed quite suitable for the role." ”
Fu Chenhui has been accompanying her, and when he heard this, he nodded slightly, "Director Zhu's casting ability is indeed the top in the circle." ”
"Hey, how do you say he found these actors? has he worked with before, recommended by acquaintances, or recommended by an artist company who got the news?" Lin Su is quite curious about the selection of casting directors, especially since their film does not openly recruit actors.
I don't know how Director Zhu's candidates were selected?
But Lin Su knew that the person next to him must be clear.
Sure enough, Fu Chenhui explained to her: "What you said is common, generally speaking, casting directors or producers usually look at three aspects when finalizing an actor, eye, ability and popularity. ”
"The first impression of the artist on the selection of directors is basically to see whether the temperament and appearance conditions are attached to the character image in the script; ability is acting, and the responsible director is generally to watch the film and select the actors, and determine whether they have strength by looking at the actors' performances in previous works; and popularity refers to the artist's reputation in the circle and public opinion on the Internet. ”
"In these three aspects, eye edge is relatively less important, but ability and popularity are all determining factors. ”
"In the current environment, an artist has no reputation for acting skills, and the director and producer dare not use it, in the same way, no matter how good the reputation and audience are but have no strength, such an artist, a good production team is definitely not wanted, only an artist who can balance the two is a suitable candidate. ”
Therefore, after a play comes out, if there is a problem in the actor's performance, the director or producer must be responsible. ”
When Lin Su heard this, he couldn't help but interject and said, "It's those resource coffees." ”
Fu Chenhui nodded, "There are so many artists in the entertainment industry, if you really want to choose an actor who is close to the character of the script, it depends on whether the relevant person in charge is willing to spend time and energy." ”
"In this way, Director Zhu's casting is both attentive and fast. ”
From the time he received the book of "Redemption of Love" to the present, it has been less than two weeks since the year and the year and the year have been added together, but the preliminary candidates for all the roles have been selected.
That's pretty damn.
Fu Chenhui continued to nod, "The entertainment industry is all about connections, an old director like Director Zhu has an actor material library in his head, and he can pick out a lot of suitable candidates in any book, and then screen them based on all conditions, and finally give the most suitable actor candidates and candidate lists." ”
"So it's easy for him to choose people, but the difficult thing is how to finalize these selected actors. ”
"Yes, that's right. Lin Su agrees with this, and Brother Xun is an example.
"The actors we fancy also need people to have a schedule and willingness to act. ”
Fu Chenhui heard her worries, and comforted: "Although it is not easy, it is not a problem for Director Zhu, he knows many actors, and he also has face in the circle." ”
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment before continuing: "Rather than finalizing the actors, I think you should remind Xingyue to pay attention to the actors' reputation and public opinion." ”
"What do you say?" Lin Su looked at him, his expression slightly nervous.
"Director Zhu and Mr. Chen are the same kind of people, they are both old-fashioned in the circle, they are very interested in strength and character, but the entertainment industry is changing with each passing day, and the young actors who were conscientious last year are likely to start floating this year......
Reminded by him, Lin Su's eyes looked at the information on his phone again.
Indeed, Director Zhu's remarks to these people are very comprehensive, including ability and reputation, including thoughts, but from the perspective of time, they are basically information before last year.
After Lin Su read it roughly, he also had a bottom in his heart.
She raised her mobile phone at Fu Chenhui, "Some of the actors here have problems?"
Fu Chenhui shook his head with a smile, "The time in this world has been pushed back more than a year compared to my previous life, and I really don't know the current development of the entertainment industry, I am reminding you to pay attention to it based on experience." ”
Lin Su showed a thoughtful expression when he heard this.
Seeing her like this, Fu Chenhui said again: "Although I don't know, some people are always paying attention to the dynamics of artists in the circle. ”
"Who?"
"Brokerage firms and brokers. ”
Lin Su's eyes lit up, "You mean Dongying?"
"The agency knows its own artists well, and it also knows the competing artists of other companies, and the agent is well versed in this. ”
Lin Su immediately understood what he meant, "So if you want to know how an artist is, just ask the company and the agent, regardless of whether it is your own family or the right family." ”
After thinking about it, she said again: "I think it's best to ask Sister Ren in this regard." ”
After all, Dongying is an artist company, and its artists should not tell outsiders if they have problems, but she has a special relationship with the Xin family, so everyone is embarrassed not to say it, so she should be self-aware and not ask about this kind of thing.
Fu Chenhui also agreed, "Sister Ren is indeed suitable, her title of gold medal agent is not called in vain, she has been in the Haicheng circle for so many years, and now she is back in the imperial capital circle to develop, no matter how familiar artists are from the north and south, just ask her about insider news." ”
