Chapter 453: Chief Director

There are advantages and disadvantages to melodramas, there are almost no supporting roles in the play, and it can be said that everyone is the protagonist, so there are particularly high requirements for the selection of the protagonist.

Chen Yongren has a finished TV series picture in his heart, so he has very strict conditions for the selection of actors.

These people who were selected by themselves are basically the same as the characters in the TV series in my impression.

In terms of acting skills, it can't be compared, although the impression is not a first-line movie star, but it is by no means a group performance.

There is still a period of time before the official shooting, so Chen Yongren is not worried about acting, and on his own script, Chen Yongren still has to talk to them, if it really can't work, just talk about it one by one, although it seems to be a little slow, but the speed of filming is still amazing.

Today, a total of nine actors came to audition, and Chen Yongren directly finalized the roles of eight people.

Although the other one has a similar body type, his acting skills are really poor, and it can be said that he only does what he does, and he has no idea of his own at all. This type of person is only suitable for being a group performer.

There are a total of twelve leading actors in the whole play, and in addition to the eight people who have been finalized, there are four roles that have not recruited the right people. However, Chen Yongren, the three of them, are not very worried, the actors who play Xiaoshi and the other two are easy to find, but the actor Chen Yongren who plays Shuigen has not yet been found.

If you insist on picking out a protagonist in this drama, it must be Cai Shuigen. Therefore, in terms of Cai Shuigen's choice, Chen Yongren's attitude is still relatively rigorous.

Gao Hu, who has been engaged in the film and television industry for 15 years, has worked in drama affairs, and has worked as an assistant director for 10 years, and has rich shooting experience. I just finished filming a TV series with director Qin Chuan, and now I want to make my own TV series.

Gao Hu, who is nearly forty years old, is still a young man in the director circle, although he has been engaged in the film and television industry for 15 years and has worked in the assistant director position for 10 years.

But Gao Hu has never been able to find his own opportunity, after all, filming is not acting, and if a play is performed well, he can be the protagonist in the next play.

In fact, the assistant director is more like a goalkeeper substitute in football, and it is difficult to have the opportunity to play in ordinary times.

Some people are lucky, after following a director for a few years, their ability has been recognized by the director, and if the relationship is good, the director may also slowly promote him.

Qin Chuan is an absolute big name in domestic TV dramas, among the ten TV dramas with the highest ratings in China in the past ten years, three are from Qinchuan, and five of the top 20 are from Qinchuan. And Qin Chuan also maintains a myth, and the five TV series filmed in the past ten years have all entered the top 20 in the ratings.

Gao Hu can be an assistant director by Qin Chuan's side, although the assistant director is only nominal, and it is more of a miscellaneous job. But the exercise of Gao Hu should not be underestimated.

is like Qin Chuan, before his official debut, he was an assistant director who worked under a previous director for ten years, and then spent another five years learning from other different directors, and finally became popular directly with a play.

And Qin Chuan took a full twenty years from the beginning of his engagement in the film and television industry to the official filming of his first TV series, five years more than Gao Hu.

In a café in Beijing, the elegant environment and the whispered customers all indicate that this is a good place to talk. The meeting with Gao Hu is set here.

Of course, the matter of contacting Gao Hu was naturally done by Gao Fan, and Chen Yongren did not know him. Fortunately, some artists under Gao Fan took over some scenes before, and Gao Hu happened to be the assistant director, so the two slowly became familiar with each other.

"I have limited time, let's make a long story short, it's okay to take this play, but I have to be a director, as for the salary, as long as it's not too low, I can accept it. After sitting down, Gao Hu spoke directly.

He has already read the script, although the content of the script is very simple and rough, but Yang Yihu, who has been engaged in this industry all year round, still feels some differences from the dialogue.

He has a hunch that this drama may achieve unexpected results.

Of course, what kind of results will be achieved in the end depends on the performances of the actors in the back, Chen Yongren's portrayal of the characters in the script, and so on.

But before he became a director, he didn't have much to say in the script.

Therefore, as soon as he came up, Gao Hu showed his attitude, as long as he is a capable director, he can not even care about the salary.

In fact, this is also in line with common sense, many assistant directors are even willing to take on a play for free in order to receive their first play.

The simple reason is that they may be really talented, but they lack an opportunity. The first drama may be an opportunity for them to pierce the window paper, and once they pierce this layer of paper, the problem behind it will not be a problem, and they will not be short of money.

"Yes, I asked you to be the director, but I must be the chief director. Chen Yongren nodded directly in agreement and put forward his own requirements.

Gao Hu frowned, there is also a chief director above the director, in the end, he is still an assistant director, but he has changed the name of a director, and there is no difference from the assistant director.

"But don't worry, I won't interfere too much with the shooting, I'm only in charge of the actors' guidance. After all, I wrote the script, and I know what kind of effect each scene needs to achieve. Chen Yongren explained.

Chen Yongren's words made Gao Hu fall silent again, if it was just what Chen Yongren said, it was not unacceptable. However, there is also the name of the chief director on it, which makes Gao Hu a little uneasy.

Because the actor director has a professional instructor to guide, or the director can also guide. But the only thing that is inseparable is the screenwriter. Gao Hu is not a big-name director, and he has not filmed any film and television works alone, so he does not dare to ask for revisions to the script like a big-name director now.

Therefore, the status of the screenwriter is evident at this time, whether it is the actor director or the director, you must fully communicate with the screenwriter to thoroughly understand the screenwriter's meaning, otherwise the drama will not be filmed at all.

Gao Hu is very clear about these truths, and the only thing that worries him is Chen Yongren's position as the chief director. But when I think about it, it doesn't seem to be anything, there are many TV dramas and movies that have chief directors, but in fact, most of the filming tasks are still done by the director.

In addition, Chen Yongren's major is music, even if he becomes the chief director, the impact on him will not be too great. Perhaps, Chen Yongren just wants to take this opportunity to make himself more famous?

"Yes, but I also hope that you can do what you say and don't interfere with me in any way. Gao Hu said.

"No problem, it can be written into the contract. Chen Yongren is sure. Take a look at the latest chapter of "The Legend of China Entertainment: Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
