Chapter 99: Shooting
After Xu Qian's casting was completed, Zhang Guo also completed his task.
He brought back a large number of people, and this was the film crew he had recruited.
This is also the creative team of "Love Apartment", with dozens of people in the photography group, lighting group, recording team, props group, makeup group, scenery group, art group, etc., etc.
Zhang Guo said: "Brother Qian, let me introduce to you, this is Uncle Ye Qingye, he is the helper I invited for you, and he can be the assistant director." ”
Ye Qing has shot many short commercials, as well as many micro-films, and has also been the assistant director of many TV series, and has rich experience.
Xu Qian said: "Uncle Ye, I will ask you to take care of me in the future." ”
Xu Qian is still a little unconfident in directing alone, and it is also very good to have an experienced assistant director to check it.
Ye Qing said with a smile: "Director Xu said that we will cooperate with each other in the future." ”
Ye Qing didn't look down on Xu Gan's halfway monk, because this is too common in the circle, Xu Qian is not the most out of line, for him, as long as he can get money, it doesn't matter.
As for the overall planning, it will be handed over to Zhang Guo.
Next, Zhang Guo was responsible for finding a venue, and Xu Qian led several actors to buy clothes, all of which were modern clothes, most of the clothes Xu Qian bought looked tall and tall, but they were actually very cost-effective, and they were not filming a small era, so there was no need to do a fashion show.
The boot ceremony is very simple, Xu Qian simply carried out a worship ceremony, not that he was superstitious, but most people are like this.
Then "Love Apartment" started filming, Xu Qian is still very confident in "Love Apartment", each of the characters in this drama has a distinct personality, Hu Yifei who is violently attacking, Playboy Lu Xiaobu, Zhang Wei who is slinging, Zeng Xiaoxian, who is weak, and Meijia who can't count......
The most important thing is that the characters are alive, this drama should be no worse, and there is no jewel in this world such as "Friends", which makes "Love Apartment" even more creative.
And "Love Apartment" is very in line with the taste of young people, it is about the misunderstandings and contradictions caused by young people facing issues such as family, friendship, love, interests, and status, and tells people that daily life is like a mirror, which can inspire people to learn how to live and how to appreciate the beauty in life.
Xu Qian was still a little excited with the guide tube in his hand, this was his first time directing a TV series, although it was only a sitcom.
Xu Qian: ""Love Apartment" has 1 shot and 1 action. ”
The first scene is mainly about Lu Zhan, a genius young man who graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology majoring in computer science, and returned to China after his studies, and was favored by a network company as a network engineer.
Zhan Bo wanted to go to his half-sister Hu Yifei, but when he stopped, he found that he had been lost on the side of a sparsely populated country road. Hu Yifei was preparing for a wedding in the apartment where he lived at this time, but he had a fierce conflict with another resident of the love apartment, Zeng Xiaoxian, who served as the host of the wedding, over the implementation plan of the wedding.
"A little richer expression. ”
"Yes, you have to be a little bit of a hanger when you walk. ”
Although Xu Qian is filming a TV series for the first time, he is not stunned at all.
His command behind the monitor was perfect, and Ye Qing, who had been observing him, nodded secretly.
"Shen Min, you are a little more domineering. ”
"Have to have the momentum of a tigress. ”
"Adjust the camera again. ”
。。。。。。。。。。。
Xu Qian filmed very seriously, and the actors acted very rusty at first, but slowly became proficient.
Because they are from a professional class and carefully selected by Xu Gan, the acting skills of these actors cannot be said to be very good, but they do not make people play.
Xu Qian also asked them to behave more "fiercely", preferring to be fierce rather than expressionless.
Soon, Xu Qian performed by himself.
Xu Qian's mind began to recall the content of his character's biography.
Zeng Xiaoxian, sensitive, single-minded, nosy good man, broke up with his original girlfriend who had been in love for 8 years, and suffered a huge blow, Zeng Xiaoxian was in a state of insomnia for a long time, and then found that he didn't need to sleep much every day, so he automatically applied to the leader to host a psychological counseling radio program called "Your Moon My Heart" at 12 o'clock in the morning every day. When analyzing other people's emotional problems, he always talks endlessly, and his head is the way.
"Listeners and friends, a good man is me, and I am - Zeng Xiaoxian. ”
Xu Qian showed a cheap expression.
Zhang Guo was surprised: "Brother Qian's performance is good." ”
Ye Qing was also very surprised, Xu Gan's acting skills were beyond his expectations, and it was already commendable for a singer to have such acting skills.
"We received a special letter from our newlywed couple, the founders of our apartment. ”
"Narnia Sanatorium, a needle package treatment is effective, do not be irritable and go to bed early, the 20% off reward costs less, the national promotion period, the broken price is only 998, immediately admit to the hospital, you will also receive a kitchen knife with eight stars and eight arrows inlaid with diamonds, Narnia Sanatorium, the effect is good. ”
Xu Qian's performance is remarkable, and he is not inferior to a group of professional actors.
Xu Qian was generally satisfied with his first day of shooting, and it took Xu Qian two days to shoot the first episode, but Xu Qian was still not satisfied with this speed, because it would take about forty days, or two months, to shoot at this speed.
A TV series of thirty or twenty episodes, each episode has a script of about 15 pages, a total of about 300 pages, Xu Qian's shooting is already very fast, but it is not enough.
As far as he knows, most TV dramas are opened by two groups at the same time, the director of group A is on the line, the assistant director or staff of the same level is on group B, group A shoots some major scenes, and group B uses the rented space and idle actors at the same time to shoot secondary scenes, fill-in shots, some action scenes and some big scenes during the filming of group A.
Therefore, the actual shooting time will be roughly controlled, and the fast shooting is mainly from economic considerations, a group of dozens of people, more than hundreds of people, this wave of people just eat and live is a lot of money, plus the rental of venues, props, equipment, and actors' schedules, it takes tens of millions of losses a day.
Therefore, Xu Qian and Ye Qing directly shot separately, Xu Qian filmed one group, Ye Qing filmed one group, Xu Qian was ready to use a month to complete "Love Apartment", sometimes the shooting is fast, and it can also squeeze everyone's potential, especially when everyone shoots for the first time.
