Chapter 51: Beautiful You (7)

The biggest difference between the professional training institutions affiliated to Beiying and the training institutions in Hong Kong is the combination of theory and practice. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In addition to teaching theory, Beiying will also tell you what knowledge should be added outside of class, and how to distribute the most important shots in a play.

There are examples of this for the participants to discuss.

Most of the people who took classes with Xiao Lan were boys around the age of eighteen, and there were very few girls.

Xiao Lan, with her absolute age advantage and calm temperament, coupled with excellent results, has become the focus of the entire training class, and the main organizer is the intermediary between the students and the training teachers.

Half a year has passed, and Xiao Lan finally fully understands the whole process of filming a drama and what role the director plays in it.

In order to better understand the drama, Xiao Lan plans to make a micro-film when she enters the Beijing Film Examination as a supplement to her school status.

In this way, Xiao Lan's knowledge can be better tested, what he has learned can be put into practice, and the acceptance rate of Beiying can also be improved.

It just so happens that the film and television company of the Internet held a micro-film competition, and although the prizes of the competition are insignificant, they can accumulate a certain amount of popularity, at least not in obscurity.

After many considerations, Xiao Lan decided to organize a micro-film crew in the training class, which was supported by the trainers.

So, after the training course was over and the teacher left, Xiao Lan ran to the podium in the training room and gave a speech to attract the attention of the students.

"Wait a minute, everyone, listen to me. ”

"I'm going to organize people to shoot a short film to participate in a competition. Although this competition is nothing, it can accumulate experience for us, experience in filming. ”

"You can add my contact information for the specific situation, and I will pull you into a group in the evening to discuss. ”

"That's the way it is, and I hope that those who are interested will participate enthusiastically. ”

Xiao Lan has experience as a company manager, and has certain experience in how to control the overall situation and give speeches. A small crew is naturally no longer a problem, she can use her own funds to rent equipment, hire professional editors, and hire actors.

It's not a lot of money, but this micro-film is enough.

Xiao Lan is mainly short of people now and needs someone to help, and the students in the training class who have a love for acting are her best human resources.

In the evening, Xiao Lan used communication tools to contact Xiao Lan's students, and Xiao Lan screened and selected about 10 people who were more impressed, had good popularity in the training class, and were more active.

And they are confident in the face of the upcoming art exams, they don't need to spend too much energy to invest, and they also have free time.

More than a dozen of Xiao Lan people were divided into three groups: director, photographer, and producer.

Xiao Lan has two people in the director team, both boys, who serve as assistant directors and assistants.

The names of the two are Zhou Peng and Li Longyi respectively.

The leader of the remaining photography team is a girl named Liu Enna, who began to learn photography at the age of 12, an amateur photographer, with a superior family background, and recommended herself to provide photography equipment and serve as the photography team leader.

The production team is in charge of post-production, and the assignment is relatively idle, mainly people with some professional knowledge and connections, in addition to being responsible for post-production, there are other jobs.

More than a dozen people form a temporary finale, and on their days off, they all gather to discuss the steps, plans, and positioning of the micro-film.

First of all, look for the script and the actors.

In the open discussion room, Xiao Lan specially rented the vacant classroom of the training institution in order for everyone to pay attention to this matter, with seats, projections, whiteboards and other equipment to cooperate with the writing discussion.

Xiao Lan checked the personnel, and began to discuss when all the personnel arrived.

The two rows of the long table were full of people, and Xiao Lan sat at the head of the long table, with a whiteboard behind it.

It was already summer, Xiao Lan wore a white T-shirt and beige mid-length pants, and tied up all her long hair in a ball, neatly. Xiao Lan, who has been using computers for a long time and is nearsighted, wears metal-framed glasses and always has a proper smile in front of everyone.

"Everyone must have known each other in a training class. ”

"The leaders of the various groups also knew. ”

"Now we're mainly talking about the idea of a short film, and we now have three scripts to choose from, so let's talk about it first. ”

Xiao Lan's script source is provided by the leader of the production team, the leader of the production team has a wide range of ways, please ask friends from Beiying to help find a micro-film script, and after screening, three better ideas were obtained, Xiao Lan was also very satisfied with this, but did not completely set the micro-film script.

Now the discussion is mainly about which idea should be chosen to shoot, what is the difficulty, whether the challenge is big, and how far the crew can do it.

In the process of discussion, you can also understand the scope of each person's ability, so that Xiao Lan has a preliminary understanding of each person.

Xiao Lan sent everyone the short versions of the three scripts, and asked everyone to read them carefully and make corresponding choices.

The themes of the three scripts are love, suspense, and disaster.

It stands to reason that the general theme of micro-movies generally chooses youth dramas, but the latter two ideas are included in Xiao Lan's options because of their novelty, and she doesn't want to follow the old path of others.

After a short reading, the discussion began.

"Now that I've read it, let's talk about my thoughts. Xiao Lan spoke.

Assistant Li Longyi adjusted the glasses frame that slid down the bridge of his nose, and first said his thoughts: "I think youth love is better, easy to shoot." Nowadays, most micro-films express the emotions of youth, and it is a good choice for us to practice our hands. ”

"Indeed, I have a certain understanding of youth micro-films, and I organized a low-budget youth micro-film in high school, and I can do it well in the later stage, so I don't need to ask someone to help edit it. A member of the production team said.

"ON!ON!ON!" ASSISTANT DIRECTOR ZHOU PENG SHOOK HIS FINGERS AND PUT FORWARD A DIFFERENT OPINION, "I THINK, THIS SUSPENSE SHOULD BE BETTER, ITS CONCEPTION IS VERY NOVEL AND REFRESHING." Besides, can you imagine what a competition looks like when it's full of youth dramas? We don't have any discrimination in it! It's because the public's choice is like that that that we have to be different!" Zhou Peng lives in the United States all the year round, and his personality is relatively active and special.

Li Longyi's direct negative response to Zhou Peng said: "Innovation is good, but we need to be capable." Suspense films are challenging for both our shots and post-production. ”

"How can you make progress without challenges?" Zhou Peng asked rhetorically.

"Even if the idea is not good, we can start elsewhere and do the other well, and we can stand out. Li Longyi tried to persuade Zhou Peng to defend his views.

Xiao Lan listened carefully to their discussion and did not immediately express her opinion.

At this time, Liu Enna, another girl in the crew besides Xiao Lan, spoke, and she said hesitantly: "You can consider a disaster movie." Disaster movies are an unpopular one, but this script is really good, it can narrow down a big picture to a full 30 minutes, and it's a flashback. ”

"Youth films, there is really no big challenge, and it is difficult to excel in a competition. On the other hand, it is a great challenge for me to have suspense films, and I am not usually very familiar with suspense films. The shots of this disaster movie are relatively daily, with more focus details and few big scenes. Post-production and photography can be well controlled. ”

"You can think about disaster movies. ”

After the discussion stage, most people expressed their opinions, and finally the first to deny the suspense film, Xiao Lan asked everyone to consider the choice between youth films and disaster films, and collectively raised their hands to vote.

In the end, the disaster movie became the final result by one vote.
