Chapter 34: Shooting
Guo Qi, Ding Chengyu and Wang Dong are the three shortest in the national men's basketball team, only a little over 1.9 meters. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoBecause the height of these three is the closest to the height of ordinary people, their clothing does not need to be completely customized, but only make some small modifications according to the original version according to the figure. Therefore, the costumes of the three of them were prepared first, and Xiao Yao also arranged for the three of them to shoot on the first day.
When the three of them walked into the studio, the shooting scene was not completely ready, and it was still a busy scene. Music was playing on the sound in the studio, and Xiao Yao was directing the gaffers and set designers to set up the lights and backgrounds along with the music.
"You're here so early, and you're here together?" Seeing the three of them coming in, Xiao Yao greeted him.
Xiao Yao's notice of the filming time started at eight o'clock in the evening, and now it is only half past seven in the evening, and the three of them arrived half an hour early. And in order to minimize the time occupied by the team members, although the three of them were all scheduled to shoot tonight, Xiao Yao asked the three to arrive half an hour apart according to the shooting order. Among the three, only Ding Chengyu needed to arrive at eight o'clock, and informed Guo Qi and Wang Dong that the arrival times were half past eight and nine o'clock respectively.
"I didn't have anything to do after dinner, so I came straight over. Ding Chengyu replied with a smile, "Guo Zi and Wang Dong have nothing to do tonight, so they just rubbed my car and came over together." ”
"Okay, it's good to be early. Xiao Yao nodded, "I haven't done it over there yet, so I won't accompany you." Brother Ding, you go to change your clothes first, put on makeup and do styling, Brother Guo and Brother Wang, you are free. ”
Saying that, Xiao Yao called the costume designer and stylist to take Ding Chengyu to change clothes, makeup, and styling, and then returned to the lighting rack and background board to watch the lighting designer and set designer work.
"It's a nice place. Guo Qi looked around the studio and said to Wang Dong, "The space is big enough, and the decoration is also very special, I feel that it has a taste compared to the studios where I used to shoot commercials." ”
"This place should have been converted from an old factory. Wang Dong, who was older, said to Guo Qi with a smile, "When I was a teenager, I loved to play with my friends in the hutong to this kind of old factory." The entire park used to be a factory, and the buildings here are basically old factories. ”
"Speaking of teenagers," Guo Qi pointed to Xiao Yaodao, who was directing the lighting set, "Brother Wang, this guy is also a teenager, and he is also in the factory. But what do you think people are playing now? What are you playing back then?"
"Yo, you kid is making fun of Big Brother. Wang Dong patted Guo Qi on the back of the head, looked at him and shot back: "This teenage guy is the one who won the national team player single-handedly, do you compare me with him when I was young and now?"
Hearing Wang Dong mention that he lost to Xiao Yao alone, Guo Qi's momentum immediately weakened.
Although he conceded six points, the head-to-head loss to Xiao Yao still had a great impact on Guo Qi's psychology. Facing an amateur basketball teenager who was not even seventeen years old, as a member of the national team, he couldn't even win by six points, so Xiao Yao scored four points to win the game. So when facing the national team players of other countries in the World Championships in the future, what will he Guo Qi let the other team play like with the players in the opposite position?
Therefore, Guo Qi subconsciously wanted to see that others were not as good as Xiao Yao, so that his heart could be somewhat balanced, so he unconsciously said those words to Wang Dong. It's a pity that Wang Dong directly took out his heads-up loss to Xiao Yao to tell the story, which made him even more depressed.
However, after Wang Dong looked at Xiao Yao in the direction of Guo Qi's finger for a while, the words he said made Guo Qi's heart feel a lot more comfortable.
"Don't say it, this Xiao Yao is only a teenager, but when he commands these people in their twenties and thirties, much older than him, he is not timid at all, and he is indeed not an ordinary person. Wang Dong looked at Xiao Yao confidently commanding those lighting engineers and set designers.
Xiao Yao's shooting plan was done in detail, and the implementation was also smooth. Before eight o'clock in the evening, the shooting site was completely ready.
Since the three team members have arrived in advance, and Ding Chengyu has already changed his clothes, put on makeup, and done a good look, Xiao Yao also started filming in advance.
When Ding Chengyu changed his clothes and came out of the dressing room, Wang Dong and Guo Qi were dazzled when they saw him.
It's not that Wang Dong and Guo Qi haven't seen Ding Chengyu wearing formal clothes, but after the set of clothes that Xiao Yao chose for him was put on Ding Chengyu's body, Wang Dong and Guo Qi both felt that Ding Chengyu seemed to be a little different. Black suit, black vest, black shirt, black tie, and even the pocket towel on the left chest is black. This all-black color choice looks speechless at first glance. However, in the well-lit environment of the studio, the reflection effect of the suit, vest, shirt and tie is also different due to the different fabrics, but it shows a good sense of layering.
When Ding Chengyu stood in front of the background board and entered the lights surrounded by pre-designed positions and angles, this sense of hierarchy was even clearer. With the face lines that look more cold after wearing makeup and styling, it magnifies the calm and calm characteristics of Ding Chengyu's whole personality.
There is a shooting plan, there are pre-designed postures and movements, and the staff on the scene, including Xiao Yao, a minor photographer, are all professional, so the biggest difficulty in this shooting is naturally on the non-professional models.
In terms of shooting posture, Xiao Yao can explain and demonstrate to Ding Chengyu. These figurative things are not difficult for Ding Chengyu to understand and do, Xiao Yao can guide Ding Chengyu to fine-tune according to the picture in his heart through language, and the more abstract things such as eyes and expressions make it slightly more difficult for Ding Chengyu and Xiao Yao to communicate. But it was only a little more difficult, and Xiao Yao was not unprepared for this.
"Brother Ding, do you still remember the third game of the semifinals against Yuncheng Steel in the 12th Central and Southern Region of the league, and the last two points and four seconds and three points?" Xiao Yao guided Ding Chengyu and said: "You recall the scene at that time, when you threw that goal, what kind of state of mind were you in at that time, and what were you thinking in your mind?"
The scene Xiao Yao said was the most famous and proud goal of Ding Chengyu's career. Since that goal, Ding Chengyu has become famous in the league, and titles such as "Big Heart" and "Cold Face Killer" have also been placed on his head.
With Xiao Yao's words, Ding Chengyu's thoughts drifted to the scene that Xiao Yao said. His face unconsciously showed a calm and even a somewhat cold expression, and his eyes seemed to be as sharp as he was on the field at that time.
"Click!" A slight shutter sounded, Xiao Yao nodded with satisfaction, and then changed to a camera that had been equipped with lenses in advance, and said to Ding Chengyu: "Brother Ding, the next posture is..."
"This Xiao Yao really has two hits. Wang Dong and Guo Qi glanced at each other, and said silently in their hearts.
Although they don't know much about photography, Wang Dong and Guo Qi can clearly see Ding Chengyu's state. As non-professional models, they are not very experienced, but they are actually a little nervous when taking pictures. Although Ding Chengyu's previous posture was relatively standard, the expression on his face was not very good. Although he seemed to be quiet, he seemed to want to show his composure, but Wang Dong and Guo Qi, who were watching from the sidelines, felt that they were completely expressionless, and even a little wooden.
Even if they're not photographers, they know it's not right. What they didn't expect was that Xiao Yao's few words of guidance brought Ding Chengyu back to the scene on the basketball court back then. Ding Chengyu's expression and eyes immediately became vivid.
Different from the communication method between ordinary photographers and models, Xiao Yao's guidance of models is actually more like the director's guidance to actors in substituting roles. This is probably because he has had more contact with film and television crews since he was a child, and he has watched too much of the director's guidance to the actors and unconsciously learns and imitates. It's just that Xiao Yao wants the other party to take on the role that he has replaced is just the one who has appeared, and judging from the results, the effect seems to be good.
When the filming of Ding Chengyu was going on for more than ten minutes, Xiao Yao instructed the costume designer to take Guo Qi to change his clothes.
The entire filming of Ding Chengyu took about half an hour and less than 40 minutes, and by the time Ding Chengyu's filming was over, Guo Qi had already made all the costumes, makeup, and styling and was ready.
Guo Qi's clothing is very different from Ding Chengyu's, first of all, the suit is more slim in cutting, and there is no vest, which is not as formal as a three-piece suit. The white shirt has a metallic trim on the corner of the collar, and the neckline is not a regular tie, but a cord-like tie called a "Poirot tie", which is fastened with a buckle.
This button-down tie from the American West can be paired with a shirt suit, although it does not look as formal and rigorous as a regular tie, and it seems more casual, but it is also very elaborate and can also appear as a formal accessory. And Guo Qi is the youngest member of the team, and he is quite free-spirited and unstingy, and this costume with this kind of tie just fits his personality very well.
Therefore, as soon as Guo Qi came out of the dressing room, he grabbed Xiao Yao, who had just finished filming with Ding Chengyu, and pointed to the "Poirot tie" on the collar of his shirt and asked Xiao Yao: "Xiao Yao, I have seen this kind of thing, but I don't know what it is called, where did you get it, can you sell this to me?"
"This is called the "Poirot Tie", which originated in the western United States, is it a good match for the same personality as your cowboy?" Xiao Yao smiled and said: "Didn't you find that the pattern on this buckle is the same as the tattoo on your right neck? I specially ordered it, and I didn't plan to sell it, because it was originally intended to be given to you after the shooting." ”
"Of course I did, that's why I like it so much. Guo Qixi said, "It turned out to be specially customized, you really have a heart." But I'm embarrassed to take your stuff for no reason, so you might as well sell it to me. ”
"It's such a small thing, and it didn't cost much. If you're embarrassed, just thank me for taking pictures with me. Xiao Yao waved his hand.
"Oh well. Guo Qi didn't insist, and said happily, "What do you say I do, promise to cooperate well." With that, Guo Qi took the initiative to walk to the background board.
"Okay, so first of all, you put away the happy look on your face, and think about the time when you were in the youth team and your coach asked you to wash off the tattoo on your neck. Xiao Yao picked up another camera on the workbench and said.
"Huh?" (To be continued.) )
