The day after Tu Yiyuan's signing was completed, Xiao Yao said goodbye to his family and flew to Shencheng with his two assistants. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Shenju is an art school, and the start time is a few days later than ordinary colleges and universities like Yenching University, so when Xiao Yao arrived in Shencheng, it was not yet the day of the school's opening report. Xiao Yao didn't have a program team to arrange a hotel for him, and the park where Yin Xi's studio was located was not too far from Shenxi, and it was relatively convenient to live in the school, so after arriving in Shencheng, he still lived in his student dormitory in Shenxi.
Some college students choose not to go home during the winter and summer vacations, and stay in the city where the school is located to work on vacation. Therefore, the dormitory of the university is not closed during the holidays, and it is possible to live in the dormitory during the holidays as long as you apply to the dormitory management department of the university before the holidays. There are still people living in the dormitory, and the school's dormitory teacher naturally does not have holidays, and still has to be on duty in the dormitory, but there are fewer people during the holidays, and the rules in the dormitory do not need to be as strict as when they go to school, and they are more or less relaxed.
Because there is a dormitory teacher on duty in the dormitory, people like Xiao Yao who arrive at the school in advance only need to register with the dormitory teacher, and then they can tear off the seal on the dormitory door and move in.
The check-in process of the student dormitory is relatively simple, and it is a place where I lived for a semester, so I am more familiar. Xiao Yao, who arrived in Shencheng in the morning, settled down in half a day. Therefore, on the afternoon of arriving in Shencheng, Xiao Yao went to the creative park where Yin Xi's studio was located.
The creative park is full of enterprises, unlike schools that have winter and summer vacations, and it is now the end of February, more than ten days have passed since the Spring Festival, and these companies have already begun to work normally. Since Yin Xi asked Xiao Yao to be present when the model was tried on tomorrow, Xiao Yao, who arrived in Shencheng a day earlier, did not rush to Yin Xi's studio, but went to Tong Luo's special effects company first.
More than a month has passed, Tong Luo has already replanned the work arrangement of the special effects company and has begun the production of animated films. Xiao Yao came over this time, first of all, he also had to care about the production progress of the animated film.
According to Xiao Yao and Tong Luo's plan, they did not make this animated film in the order of the script, but selected a few scenes that could better reflect their special effects level to be produced first, as their promotional samples, and prepared for the investment activities that may be needed in the later stage. What they're currently working on right now is making that sample clip.
Before coming to Shencheng, Xiao Yao had already received the year-end dividends of the modeling company and the sales proceeds of his songs last year, and transferred most of them to the accounts of the special effects company. With Xiao Yao's investment, plus the funds in the special effects company's own account, it is enough to support the special effects company's expenses for almost four or five months of this film project. Not only is there no stress in making sample film clips, but there is also a surplus to start the overall production of the film.
There is no financial pressure for the time being, and Xiao Yao's storyboard script and character design are very detailed, so the production of this model clip is also going very smoothly, and Xiao Yao is also very satisfied with the work efficiency of the special effects company and the production level of the currently completed part after reading it.
In addition to caring about the progress of animated films, Xiao Yao's other purpose for coming to the special effects company is the post-processing of the more than 30 still film photos in his hands.
To put it bluntly, static movies use pictures to tell stories, Xiao Yao wants to use more than 30 photos to present Li Qingzhao's life story, in addition to carefully designing the scenes, character modeling, makeup, clothing, and actions of each photo in the shooting, so that the models can present every moment full of plot tension through expressions, demeanor, and movements, and the post-processing of the photos also needs to be carefully polished.
Different from the photo photos that highlight the subject of the photographed person, in the pictures of still films, what Xiao Yao really wants to express is the plot expressed in the whole picture, and he needs to make these photos as exquisite, shocking and attractive as oil paintings. This kind of post-production difficulty is naturally more demanding than ordinary character portraits, so Xiao Yao took these things to a special effects company to do them. Because whether it is software or hardware, the technical support that can be provided by the special effects company is much better than that of a self-taught guy.
has already helped Xiao Yao do the post-production special effects of the MV for free, for the private business that Xiao Yao took again, Tong Luo did not generously say that he could help him complete it for free this time, but for the sake of him as a collaborator of the film project, Tong Luo still gave Xiao Yao a friendly discount price of students and partners. Since Xiao Yao also had a basic knowledge and understanding of the technical personnel in the company, Tong Luo also agreed that Xiao Yao could freely designate any one or several employees in the company to do his private business. As for Xiao Yao's request to learn further special effects production techniques from the employees of the special effects company, Tong Luo also said that it doesn't matter, as long as the employees themselves agree, he, the boss, has no opinion.
So, Xiao Yao appointed two picture special effects artists who he thought were the best to help him complete the special effects production of still movie pictures, and also offered to the two of them to pay for the two tickets to the brand's fashion show held by Yin Xi's studio a week later, and asked them to teach him this student by the way during the production process.
The two special effects artists knew Xiao Yao, a young star, and knew that it was impossible for him to be a professional picture special effects artist to steal their jobs, and they also knew that he was cooperating with the company on an animated film project, so they didn't mind taking him with him as a star "apprentice", not to mention that Xiao Yao also provided them with an opportunity to go to the brand press conference to be a live audience and enjoy watching beautiful models?
Xiao Yao just arrived in Shencheng today, and he sorted out his luggage in the dormitory for half a day in the morning, packed up the dormitory hygiene, and had no intention of starting study and work immediately, and this static movie was not in a hurry to be released, so Xiao Yao made an appointment with the two picture special effects artists to make and study, and planned to officially start in two days.
After the work in the special effects company is done, it is not too late. Thinking that since he came to the creative park, it seemed impossible not to go to Yin Xi's studio to see, if Yin Xi knew, it would inevitably be used by her to find fault again, so from Tong Luo's special effects company, Xiao Yao went directly to Yin Xi's studio again.
The office area of Yin Xi's studio occupies a large area and space area, and is composed of a three-story main building and a two-story annex building. The entire studio is also divided into several large parts according to the type of business.
The music department is a two-story annex building, which includes a recording studio, instrument storage room, practice room, rehearsal room and many other rooms. This part Yin Xi was directly thrown to Xiao Yao to be responsible, and he usually didn't go. The three-story main building is also divided into two parts: the film and television department and the brand design department. These two parts are for Yin Xi himself, and they also indicate two different development directions after Yin Xi's transformation. Xiao Yao knew that the focus of Yin Xi's studio's recent work was on the brand launch conference in a week, so Xiao Yao didn't go anywhere else, and went directly to the three-story main building and went to the brand design department.
"San'er, Nina, why are you here?" Xiao Yao opened the door of the fashion design room familiarly, and the first thing he saw when he came in turned out to be Lin Qisan and Nina Aiyiguli.
"Bayi, are you back in Shencheng?" Hearing Xiao Yao's voice, Lin Qisan also ran over happily and hugged Xiao Yao.
"Hey, Yanjing is my home, and I can only use a hui word when I go back to Yanjing. I'm here to Shencheng. Xiao Yao corrected with a smile, "Why are you here? And Nina, you also returned to school early?"
"Nina returned to Shencheng on the eighth day of the first month. Lin Qisan said, "How can it be like you, if it weren't for Sister Yin Xi urging you, I'm afraid you would have to start school before you come back, right?
"I'm on business in Yanjing. took promotional photos for a program group of Yanjing Satellite TV, and he was serious about work. I just finished filming yesterday, didn't this fly over today?" Xiao Yao said, "Besides, isn't Sister Xi staring at her here? ā
"Cut~ You're just lazy, you'll be happy if you're tired of my sister. Yin Xi also walked over and said, "I've heard that you have not only helped the program team of Yanjing Satellite TV take promotional photos in Yanjing recently, but you also used other people's resources to shoot a static movie by the way, and forced a shooting project that can be completed in two days for six days." How are you having fun with the heroine of the "Ancient Talented Girl" these days?"
"This, how do you know so clearly?" Xiao Yao was slightly surprised, and then immediately reacted, "There are models in our company who arrived in advance, right? Tell me, who sold their boss so quickly?" Because the two projects were selected together, and they were also notified together, so in addition to the program team of Yanjing Satellite TV and Tu Yiyuan, only people from Xingdonglin Model Company knew that he was shooting static movies.
"People came to Shencheng in advance to show that they are dedicated and attach importance to our press conference," Yin Xi pouted, "Such a person is kind enough to provide me with news, do you think I will tell you who she is?"
"What kind of static movie? Bayi, are you playing new tricks again?" Lin Qisan interjected curiously, "It sounds like it has something to do with photography and acting." Nina and I are graphic models and acting, so it's not interesting enough for you to have a fun photography project without us!"
"I'm doing a fun project on my own, and the models aren't paid. Xiao Yao smiled and said, "Yanjing's project, you are in Shencheng." I'm embarrassed to let you fly from Shencheng so far out of your own pocket, and you have to fly back by yourself when you're done. As for Nina, I didn't even know that she came to Shencheng in advance. ā
"By the way, why did Nina come here so early, and why are you here?" Xiao Yao began to change the subject.
"Nina was bored at home after the Spring Festival, so she came early. Lin Qisan said, "Since I took magazine photos with me and Sister Xi last year, Nina has also begun to get involved in graphic modeling. If you want to talk about job opportunities in this area, it must be that Shencheng has more jobs than her hometown Baoshi, and I take care of it, so I came over in advance to find some work and earn some pocket money. ā
"We both work part-time models and are interested in the fashion side of things. Knowing that Sister Yin Xi and your co-brand conference will be held next week, I often come to Sister Yin Xi to see it these days, on the one hand, to appreciate and learn, and by the way, to see if there is anything I can help Sister Yin Xi. Nina also explained with a smile.
"Look, your brother and classmates are more interested than you. Yin Xi pointed at Xiao Yao again.
"Sister, didn't I come?" Xiao Yao hurriedly said, "You asked me to be there tomorrow, I only finished taking pictures yesterday afternoon, and this morning's plane arrived in Shencheng and came in the afternoon, isn't it a concern?"
"So, you're here to help?" Yin Xi looked at Xiao Yao and smiled.
"You have something to command. Xiao Yao nodded vigorously.
"Okay, at the press conference, you will be the person in charge of the scene, the commander-in-chief!" Yin Xi said.
"What?!" Xiao Yao pointed to his nose and said, "You let me be in charge of the entire press conference?"
"Yes!" Yin Xi nodded with a smile, "During this time, we have completed another design work, which I particularly like." I decided to be the model for this work myself, and I made the finale and walked the catwalk, so the scene will only be left to you. ā
"But even if you want to go up the catwalk yourself, you can also ask a professional press conference planning company to plan and let their people command. Xiao Yao said.
"The press conference was originally planned by a professional planning company," Yin Xi said, "but no matter how professional the planning company is, no matter how carefully prepared in advance, it is inevitable that there will be any emergencies on the scene, so there is still a need for a person in charge of the site who can make up his mind." The people of the planning company do things according to the requirements, and once there is an emergency, they also need someone to tell them how to deal with it, which is also the requirement of the planning company. ā
"It's our co-brand, and it's just me and you as the bosses. Yin Xi looked at Xiao Yao and said, "I'm going to prepare for the catwalk, who will you hand over the scene to? Besides, aren't you learning to be a director?
"It's... Okay, I'll do it!" Xiao Yao thought about it for a while, nodded and agreed. I have participated in a lot of fashion shows, and I have seen some unexpected situations, and I am not completely inexperienced. Just like Yin Xi said, the short film and MV have been filmed, can't you handle a press conference by yourself?
