003 [Establishing the Script]
"Let's ......"
"Crackling ......"
At one o'clock in the morning, after eating barbecue, the three of them returned home, and Luo Yuan took advantage of the wine to write the script.
Don't sprinkle dog blood?
The style of painting is strange?
In his previous life, "My University Running Account", which had a Douban score of 8.8, was such a drama, but Luo Yuan still felt that the later name of this drama was better-
Title: "Together Through the Window".
This is a story with a simple structure, telling the story of Lu Qiaochuan, Zhong Bai, and Ren Yifan, who grew up together since childhood, and were admitted to the same university and met a group of friends in school, and then this group of people gags in all kinds of trivial things and continues to mature the story......
The settings are pretty average.
However, under this background setting, every character in it is very vivid, and the story itself is also very attentive, which is why Luo Yuan chose this drama.
In fact......
There are memory treasures from his previous life, and there are a lot of youth campus scripts for Luo Yuan to choose from, but Luo Yuan lives a lifetime, and what scenes he makes is more determined by his own mood.
What is the pursuit of filming?
The pursuit of big productions, the pursuit of the hottest TV ratings, the pursuit of the industry to amaze the movie box office?
Of course, there are these thoughts.
But in this life, Luo Yuan's mentality has been very flat, patting small productions, and shooting relatively unpopular things, he also feels very happy, as for big productions......
I'll talk about it when I'm interested.
Luo Yuan is no stranger to writing scripts, he was born as a director in his previous life, and he also studied screenwriting, so he can easily get both scripts and storyboards.
Of course.
The original plot must not be copied.
First, the world background is different, and many things in it naturally have to change, and second, some of the plot rhythms in this drama are a little delayed, and two episodes were filmed just to introduce the characters at the beginning of school, and Luo Yuan wants to polish it according to his own understanding......
That's it.
Half a month has passed.
Luo Yuan finally got the script of "Together Through the Window", and called Xia Ran and Ai Xiaoai to the residence as soon as possible.
"Writing a script in less than half a month?"
When he came to Luo Yuan's residence, Xia Ran was full of suspicion, and it wasn't until Luo Yuan threw the printed script in front of him that he opened it in disbelief.
"It's yours. ”
Luo Yuan also sent one to Ai Xiaoai.
The two of them just held the script and read it, while Luo Yuan held his mobile phone and studied the relevant systems of film and television dramas in this world.
……
It's different from the previous life.
The Chinese entertainment industry in this world has a distinct trade union system, and it is supported and protected by the state, and the relevant laws are very sound, which is somewhat similar to Hollywood in the previous life.
Actors Guild!
Director's Guild!
Screenwriters' Guild and more!
Almost every profession in the film and television industry can find a corresponding guild, as long as you make some achievements after one year in the industry and pay your dues on time, you can enjoy the rights and interests granted by the guild.
The original owner is a member of the Director's Guild.
The guild has many functions, for example, it can bring together professional talents, forming a virtuous circle similar to the employment relationship, if you want to find an actor, just go to the director's union to register, and the next day someone will contact you.
Screenwriters, directors, etc. are equally available.
This complete system has led to the rapid development of Chinese culture and entertainment, and in recent years, whether it is novels, music, or film and television dramas, a considerable number of excellent works have emerged.
But......
In Luo Yuan's view, there is still a way to go if the level of entertainment development in this world wants to reach the level of the previous life, which can be seen through the monotonous genre of literary and artistic works.
Fortunately, technology has not lagged behind.
The filming of film and television dramas is supported by relevant technologies and systems, so it is easier than in the previous life, as long as there is enough talent, new directors can also be on the top, and countless video websites in China provide the soil for these film and television dramas to survive-
Yes!
Web dramas are popular!
This kind of popularity is even worse than in the previous life, and to some extent, it can be compared with the prevalence of online novels in the previous life, of course, the threshold of the two is still very different, after all, the funds for filming film and television dramas are not made up casually.
Luo Yuan deliberately investigated.
There are three largest video websites in China, namely [Penguin Video], [Light and Shadow World] and [Shuimu.com], these three websites are the largest, a bit of a three-part world, and the original filmed "Love Waltz" was broadcast on the platform [Light and Shadow World]......
"I think so!"
Just when Luo Yuan was thinking about whether to continue to sign a contract with the video website [Light and Shadow World] for the new play, Xia Ran's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"What a surprise. ”
Luo Yuan, who was thinking about things, was taken aback, and glared at Xia Ran angrily.
Xia Ran felt that there seemed to be a majesty between Luo Yuan's eyebrows, and subconsciously laughed: "I mean the script, Director Luo is mighty, this script called "Together Through the Window" is very interesting, you really impressed me once......
"I think I can, too!"
Ai Xiaoai on the side put down the script, her eyes lit up: "I thought it was boring at first, but the more I watched it, the more attractive and down-to-earth it became, and people couldn't help but recall the ...... of college life."
"Probably feelings?"
"I think the military training plot is very touching!"
"I think the part of eating dumplings in the cafeteria is more touching!"
"There are endless jokes in it, although I laugh a lot, but I can't help but be amused several times......"
Well, the two of them talked.
Luo Yuan had to interrupt the two: "Didn't I show you the script so that you could discuss the story itself and have a good idea of your own characters?"
"I'm Lu Qiaochuan!"
Xia Ran said with a smile: "Although this protagonist is very sad, a bit of a scumbag, and sometimes annoying, I can feel that he has been growing." ”
"I'm the female No. 1 Zhong Bai. ”
Ai Xiaoai glanced at Xia Ran: "Although Zhong Bai has always been a bit of a backward chase in this drama, his character is quite pleasing, and the routine of the heroines of all current youth dramas is different, I personally like this story." ”
"This script is based on us?"
Ai Xiaoai was in a good mood: "Lu Qiaochuan, Zhong Bai, and Ren Yifan, three friends who have been classmates together since elementary school, can't run away or break up, and the relationship between the three of us is very similar!"
Xia Ran panicked: "You have a crush on me?"
Ai Xiaoai scolded: "Mentally retarded, Zhong Bai in the script likes Luqiaochuan, it doesn't mean that I like you." ”
"Then I'm relieved. ”
Xia Ran smiled very cheaply, Ai Xiaoai looked at it and wanted to hit someone.
Luo Yuan stood up and said: "Okay, you can take the script back and continue to read it, let's go out to eat first, and after eating, go to the major guilds to register and find someone to build the crew, our division of labor is ......"
"I'm looking for actors. ”
Xia Ran raised his hand: "We don't need to go through the Actors Guild, we can find some classmates to help, and their salaries don't need to be too high!"
"Then I'll find a school. ”
After all, Ai Xiaoai was born in a film and television school, and Ai Xiaoai also has some understanding of the preparation of the crew: "I know the president of the student union of a school, and the other party should be able to provide us with a filming venue......"
Several people discussed and decided on the division of labor.
Walking downstairs, Ai Xiaoai said: "Let's go over there to take a taxi in the shade, it's too hot this day, but fortunately, the beginning of the script is the summer plot." ”
"Where's your car?"
Luo Yuan looked at Xia Ran strangely.
Xia Ran waved his hand again and again: "The paint on the car was scratched and broken a few days ago, send it to the 4S shop for warranty!"
"Where's your car?"
Listening to the familiar sentence structure, Luo Yuan asked again.
Xia Ran shrugged his shoulders, and Ai Xiaoai shouted gloatingly on the side: "It's sold!"
Luo Yuan stared at Xia Ran.
This thing couldn't hide it, and spread his hands very shamefully: "Don't look at me like this, that's how the money for filming comes from." ”
