"The name is right, you can give some advice!" Tang An smiled

Shark Beach!

Looking at the two big books on the cover, Xu Jingfei probably knew what kind of movie this was.

Then I looked down, and the whole script was written by hand, and the standard script font was very comfortable to read.

Li, an 18-year-old girl, came to a remote beach in Jiangsu and Zhejiang alone during the summer vacation, looking for the place where her parents fell in love back then.

The sun, the sand, the waves, everything was absolutely wonderful.

But the accident happened, until a big wave came, and a giant shadow of a shark loomed in the water wall, and after being attacked, Li Sijia was trapped on a reef, although there was not too far between her and the coast, but a great white shark blocked her way to survive......

The script only had two sheets of A4 paper, and it was read quickly.

is different from the expected imitation of "Jaws", judging from the script, there is only one actor in the whole film, the heroine Li Sijia, and the combined exit time of the other actors is less than ten minutes.

And the other main character, Shark, is different from the one who did not appear in "Jaws", and basically appears throughout the middle and late stages.

"The script is decent, but what about the investment?"

Xu Jingxiang raised a key question.

Tang Anunu mouthed and gestured, "There are still a few leaves of storyboard scripts in the back." You'll talk about it after you've read it!"

Xu Jingfei shook her head, she also roughly knew Tang An's character, unlike those directors who had just come out of the film academy, she would not decide to make a film just because she suddenly had an idea, and her head was hot.

She has good art skills, which is her first impression when she looks at the storyboard script.

"Very good!" Xu Jingyan put down the script and looked at Tang An with a little surprise, "The script is ordinary, not too subordinate, the script is very coherent! I can basically go through those scenes in my brain just now." ”

"But if you shoot it like this, you don't have much choice for post-editing. ”

"I'll check it when I'm filming, I know this in my heart, and the whole plot is in my head!" Tang An pointed to his head and said confidently.

Generally, whether it is a TV series or a movie, the shots that are actually cut into the finished film will not exceed half of the footage filmed, that is, most of the shots have to be discarded.

And Tang An's storyboard script does not have too many superfluous shots, nor does it lack a single shot.

Tang An naturally relied on this, and in his previous life, he had watched all the well-known films more than ten times, and he already knew it.

And after crossing over, he found that his memory was much better, and he remembered many things that happened when he was a child.

Maybe it's a gift from God.

"Well, the script is not the most important, you can add it at any time, so what about the investment!"

Xu Jingfei said back to the question just now, "Sharks need special effects, crew's salaries, equipment, actors' salaries... Find an actor who is not famous can be ignored, as well as venues, lunches, accommodation, how to solve these. ”

"I now have 30,000 yuan in my whole body, and 20,000 is four months' salary. Tang An said truthfully.

"Then where are you going to attract investment, Huayi, Berner, or China Film?"

"Otherwise, I'll help you hand the book to Huayi and see if they're interested!" Xu Jingyan thought for a while and said.

At this time, Jiang Wen, who had been quietly watching the script, spoke.

"Even if it's a shame on your face. Huayi is willing to pay 2 million at most!"

"And it's still about factoring in the equipment. ”

Jiang Wen put down the script and looked at Tang An's gaze with more and more surprise.

This storyboard may not be as good as most well-known directors, and there is nothing special about it.

It's not special at all, everything is well-behaved, and there are no bells and whistles.

It seems ordinary, but it is actually very standard, and it can even be said that this is a storyboard that can be used as a model in a film school.

"Tang An, you kid is really a genius, just this storyboard script, it is impossible to be so comprehensive without seven or eight years of skill. ”

"Lighting effects, camera angles and movements, sound effects and phonetic transcriptions, and the characters' minds and body language ......," Jiang said.

"Brother Wen, you have an overreputation, this is an ordinary storyboard script. Tang An waved his hand.

He can only get his hands on the basic skills now, he used to be busiest when he was on the same set for 4 months with two groups of people to shoot two 40-episode anti-Japanese war dramas, interspersed with the filming of a campus romance drama, relying on the basic skills, and the three crews were sorted out in an orderly manner.

"No need, I already have an idea, otherwise I wouldn't have told you about this!" Tang An shook his head with a smile and politely rejected Xu Jinglei's proposal.

If Xu Jingfei hands over the book to Huayi, and then asks Jiang Wen to help say a favor, not to say more, an investment of three or four million will not be a problem.

The investment of more than 20 million yuan in this "Letter from a Strange Woman" comes from Huayi, and Jiang Wen is also an artist under Huayi.

Last year, Xu Jingxiang's first self-directed and self-starred movie "My Dad and Me" was also invested by Huayi, and Jiang Wen also starred in it.

And Huayi also found a director to play the leading role for Xu Jinglei.

In the entertainment industry, networking is not the most important thing, but it is definitely indispensable.

Tang An said immediately, "As far as I know, Huayi's batch of equipment will give you more than a month to shoot, if you can rest assured, I want to borrow some of the equipment for a month!"

"That's no problem, what about the crew's salary, food and housing?"

Xu Jingxiang nodded, and she was not worried that he would run away with this batch of equipment, Huayi Media is the largest cultural industry media group in China, and the establishment ceremony was held in the Great Hall of the People.

"I have all the director, life producer, live producer, cameraman, lighting engineer, props master, coordinator, and field work, as long as one makeup artist is enough, and then go to the shooting site to hire a few temporary workers to do chores, it won't cost too much!"

Rao is always a calm talented woman, Xu Jingyu was also taken aback, "You are concurrently serving all the positions of the crew alone?"

"That's right! All the scenes in this film are focused on the heroine, one person should be busy, and there are not many multi-angle shots!"

"What about aerial photography? Our crew's aircraft has a battery life of only 18 minutes, and it can rise to a maximum of 200 meters, do you need me to send someone to transfer one from the capital?"

"Hot air balloons, many tourist attractions by the sea will have them, as long as the wind speed is not large, it is not a big problem to keep the lens stable!"

"There's a part of the surfing scene in the storyboard, can you keep the actors safe, and can you save them if something happens?"

"Actors must practice first, a few supporting roles will look for surfing enthusiasts at the beach, and that scene will be filmed at the end, if it doesn't work, use a stand-in, it shouldn't be difficult to find a girl with a similar body size who can surf at the beach!"

......

The two asked and answered, Xu Jingyan asked all the questions she could think of, and Tang An explained them one by one.

Jiang Wen listened to their questions and answers, and knocked on the table with his hand, "It seems that you are really ready for everything, so what about investing!"

"Brother Wen is talking about that shark!"

"If you want to do it better, you can't do it without three million, but if it's as rough as those TV series, it really won't cost a few dollars, but it's too fake on the big screen!"

It's a difficult problem to solve, either by spending money or by having a five-cent special effect.

Jiang Wen believed that Tang An was not untargeted, and was very curious about how he would solve this matter.
