Chapter 352: Director's Choice
One director is crucial to a work, and the same script shot by different directors can lead to two completely different works.
The same actor, under different directors, will also have different performances.
The artistic creation of the film is centered on the director, and it can be said that the director's performance concept and understanding of the role are often more important than the actors.
Therefore, Yi Shuihan was very cautious in choosing a director.
The first thing to rule out is Wang Chaosheng, the director of "Life and Death".
Although the cooperation was quite pleasant during the filming at that time, the two had conflicts after that, and the competition between "New Life" and "Boxer" worsened the relationship between the two, and basically the cooperation between the two was impossible.
And Wang Chaosheng's slightly dark and heavy shooting style may not be suitable for the TV series "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".
"What about Yan Fan, is he suitable?" Zheng Liaoyuan asked with a deep groan.
Yi Shuihan also thought for a while and said: "We can try to invite, in terms of ability, Director Yan can definitely control this TV series, but he belongs to the Mountain Shadow Group, and the Mountain Shadow Group has never lacked good scripts and funds, so it is estimated that it is a little difficult to invite him." ”
"Well, try it. Wang Jie wrote down Yan Fan's name on the memo and prepared to contact him afterwards.
"Director Jin Lizhang is also a good choice, he can see his directing ability during the filming of "New Life", and he has not had the opportunity to shoot in the near future. Yi Shuihan continued to propose.
But Zheng Liaoyuan frowned, hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't think it's feasible......"
"Why?" Wang Jie was about to write down the name, and when he saw Zheng Liaoyuan say this, he looked up at him suspiciously.
Yi Shuihan also looked at Zheng Liaoyuan suspiciously, since the last cooperation, it was basically Zheng Liaoyuan and Jin Lizhang who contacted the follow-up matters of "New Life".
Could it be something else?
Zheng Liaoyuan sighed and said: "People's hearts are changeable, I'm afraid Jin Lizhang has some opinions about us now." ”
Zheng Liaoyuan was not untargeted, and he discovered his transformation from the process of contact with Jin Lizhang.
In fact, he can't be blamed, as the screenwriter and director of "New Life", he should be the core character of this TV series
But his gains in this TV series are only one-fifth of the studio's, and whoever it is, is a little uncomfortable.
However, the white and black letters can't blame anyone, if there is no investment from Yi Shuihan, it is a question whether this TV series can be filmed.
Without Yi Shuihan's role, it is doubtful whether this TV series can achieve such good results.
Zheng Liaoyuan felt that the money was at ease, but the other party might not feel very much.
It's not strange to see a lot of this kind of thing in the business circle, and it is estimated that it is unlikely that he will be found to film again now.
"Why?" Yi Shuihan frowned and asked, since he and Jin Lizhang cooperated, the relationship between the two has been good, and the TV series "New Life" has also been a great success, why can't they continue to cooperate.
Zheng Liaoyuan told Yi Shuihan the reason, and everyone fell silent.
But the reality is like this, and Yi Shuihan will not be sentimental because of this.
Since Jin Lizhang is not suitable, then choose other candidates.
has also cooperated with Yi Shuihan and Guan Xueming, who filmed "Jianghu Beifei".
Although he is not as famous as Yan Fan and Wang Chaosheng, he still has his own unique views on shooting techniques.
Whether it is the rendering of the atmosphere or the switching of long and short shots, he has his own uniqueness.
The filming of the TV series "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" is estimated to be able to play to his strengths.
Yi Shuihan also took him as one of the alternatives.
In addition, several directors that Wang Jie knew also made selections one by one, and as long as they were suitable, he recorded them all.
Of course, this is only a preliminary screening, and before the director is finalized, Yi Shuihan has to have an interview with the director in person.
He needs to know what the director's understanding and opinion of the whole script is.
Only by meeting Yi Shuihan's requirements can the final candidate for the director be determined.
After the discussion, the three of them went about their own business.
The project of Fairy Sword has been approved, and there are too many things to prepare.
Wang Jiehe immediately contacted the director on the list to see if the other party had a schedule to take over the filming of this work.
When many directors knew that they were accepting the TV series approved by Yi Shuihan Studio, they didn't even see the script, and they politely rejected Wang Jie's invitation.
In their opinion, such a small studio is nothing more than a small-budget web drama, so they are not interested in the slightest.
Of course, Wang Jie will not beg them with a shy face, he doesn't believe that he will not find a director with such a large amount of money and such a good script!
And some directors can't take over this TV series because of scheduling reasons, Guan Xueming and Yan Fan, who have worked with Yi Shuihan, are among them.
Yan Fan's TV drama project in Shanying Group has been approved, and Guan Xueming is even in the midst of intense filming.
So unfortunately, none of the four directors Yi Shuihan has worked with have the opportunity to direct this TV series.
There are also three or four directors who are willing to take over this TV series after hearing about such a large investment in funds.
But after Yi Shuihan negotiated with them, he found that their understanding of this TV series was not in place, or the genre they were good at directing was not in this category.
This made Yi Shuihan, who pursued perfection, unwilling, if he really found a director to shoot so casually, he would not need to invest so much money.
Wang Jie also didn't expect that none of the so many directors was suitable.
Things seem to have reached an impasse, and Wang Jie kept inquiring about the news to see which director had the right schedule.
Just when they were at a loss, a director personally contacted Wang Jie!
"What? is he?" Yi Shuihan looked at Wang Jie in surprise, he didn't expect that he would have an intersection with this director after so long.
"Huh, do you know him?" Wang Jie asked suspiciously, he was also very strange when he heard that the director called in person, but he didn't expect Yi Shuihan to know the other party.
Yi Shuihan nodded, his expression complicated.
How could he not know that when he first crossed into this world, the first thing he heard and the first person he saw was this director!
Xu Yongzhi!
Although he was sprayed very miserably by Xu Yongzhi at the beginning, it was when Yi Shuihan's performance was very poor.
Any director who sees Yi Shuihan's original performance will probably be angry.
But when Yi Shuihan's brilliant performance suppressed Liu Ruwei, he immediately agreed with Yi Shuihan's performance.
Although Yi Shuihan was finally kicked out of the crew under pressure, there was no choice.
"See, you can help me arrange the time!" Yi Shuihan said softly.
