Chapter 298: Thoughtful
Is the threshold for film directors high or low? In fact, there is no fixed answer to this question, whether it is at home or abroad, the threshold for film directors is both low and high. Fastest updates
Many people think that any writer, actor, producer, singer, and host can be a director, and even many have made bad movies, which has led to the industry's threshold getting lower and lower, making the industry a miasma, as if the qualifications are not just waiting to make movies, it is beyond their means.
It is undeniable that because some directors have no relevant experience, they choose to devote themselves to this industry in order to make money and make bad movies to make the audience feel bad, but this is actually related to the level of the film industry and the inevitable result of market development.
For some investors, as long as they can make money, even if they can pull a dog to be a director, it is no problem, so it is not surprising that anyone can be a director.
But it would be a lie to say that the threshold for directors is not high, this industry is not so easy to mix, and if you don't have real skills, you will inevitably be eliminated by the industry in the end, you have no aesthetic skills, you don't have the ability to tell stories, this kind of person can't grow up in the industry, so in the final analysis, the threshold for directors is not high, but the threshold for a good director is very high.
Besides, many movies are commercial projects, it doesn't matter who is the director, maybe he will put on a name, the key is that fame is the most important, people show that the carriage and horses are here to make money, and being a director is just a means.
So some movies are either selling fame or feelings, to put it bluntly, the so-called "movies" made are for fans, even PPT fans are very happy, these people are the industry's-stirring sticks, knowing that this person is likely to have a bad movie, you still go to watch it, that's also self-inflicted.
As a director, don't care about your background, the key is whether you can do your job well, your professional background may not be much better than being a monk halfway, the important thing is whether the director is down-to-earth and does his best to tell the story well, the audience can feel the director's attitude, and the work is the best speech.
Quentin sells videos, Nolan majored in English literature during college, Sunglasses Wang studied graphic design, Lao Mouzi was born in photography, Feng Cannon Art Troupe was engaged in art, and Miyazaki studied politics and economy, so his background is not important at all.
From the moment he decided to try to be a director, Zhou Bai has carefully considered, he knows what advantages he has, and he also knows his shortcomings, and what kind of movie he chooses is very important, "My Sassy Girlfriend" is undoubtedly a suitable project.
As a director for the first time, it is best not to have a large investment, and there are not too many crew members, so it is easy to control.
"My Sassy Girlfriend" has an investment of only eight million, and there are no big scenes in the whole movie, and the shots with a large number of people are nothing more than subway and classroom scenes, and this is a closed environment, which is much easier to control.
The second is better not to use big-name actors.
It is very troublesome for an actor to become famous and famous, this trouble is that if the director's authority is not enough, it is easy to have a situation where the director can't control the actor, Zhou Bai is an investor and a director, as long as he doesn't invite an actor at the level of a king and a queen, there is no problem at all, of course, he may not be able to invite him.
The third is that the story can't be complicated, and simply put, it can't be too skillful.
The director's ultimate task is to tell a good story, and the story of "My Sassy Girlfriend" is definitely not that complicated, throwing away the UFO and time capsules, which seem to be a bit sci-fi, it is actually a simple story of how a warm man who is a little cowardly can heal a girl through his own efforts.
To sum up, Zhou Bai's choice of "My Sassy Girlfriend" as his debut film as a director was deliberate, not that he was willful and messed around for the sake of vanity and qualifications.
Now that he has decided to be the director, Zhou Bai began his own preparations, in fact, the script of "My Sassy Girlfriend" has been written, the storyboard script is also being drawn, and it is being revised again and again, and the actor's audition and preliminary preparations have also begun.
……
"What, you said that this time Zhou Bai wanted to be his own director, so he sent us an audition invitation?" Wang Zhongjun had a surprised expression on his face, and was startled after hearing Wang Jinhua's report.
"Yes, Bai Studio sent us an invitation to audition, the heroine has not yet been selected, I want to invite Xiao Fan and Xiao Li to audition, this time the producer is Yuan, and the director is Zhou Bai himself, I heard that this script is adapted by a Korean network. Wang Jinhua sat on the chair, took a sip of coffee and said.
"He's so confident? If I'm not mistaken, Zhou Bai has only debuted for four years, and this is about to develop as a director? Could it be that this kid will write, direct, and act in the future?" Wang Zhonglei was also taken aback by the news brought by Wang Jinhua, and muttered.
"It's four years, yes, we wanted to tie him to our chariot at that time, but unfortunately he was too determined to make the trip, who would have thought that he would gain a foothold in the industry so quickly. Wang Jinhua nodded and said, there was also a trace of emotion in her words.
"How did he think that he would be a director, didn't all previous movies invite other directors?" Wang Zhongjun's feeling in his heart was a little complicated, he missed Zhou Bai, he didn't regret that it was fake.
"I asked someone to inquire, and I heard that it was because there was no good book at the moment, and Zhou Bai didn't want to act in this movie, so he simply chose to be his own director. Wang Jinhua told what she knew.
"This news can't be hidden, the media and various companies are inextricably linked, many people will release their own materials to the media, this news broke out, I am afraid it will cause a lot of controversy. Wang Zhonglei said with a smile, with a little schadenfreude, how can he not be clear about the things in the industry in a few years.
Zhou Bai is not so easy to be influenced by the media, his momentum has been not small in recent years, but he has maintained a lot of independence, if he is an ordinary star, he may be restricted by the company under the pressure of public opinion, and the investment may be yellow, but he himself is the boss, and the investment is also his own money, so the place that can affect him is very small. Wang Zhongjun shook his head and said.
Wang Zhongjun sees it very clearly, ordinary celebrities are very afraid of any turmoil in public opinion that will affect their own market, but Zhou Bai is not an ordinary star, and he doesn't know how many celebrities have to envy him to death because of his autonomy.
Wang Zhonglei's smile paused for a second, the situation is indeed like this, no matter what the media says, people have their own money and connections, and they are not afraid of other people's irresponsible remarks, anyway, the project is firmly in their own hands.
"Then do you want to let Xiao Fan and Xiao Li go over to participate in the audition?" Wang Jinhua asked, in fact, the actors' auditions don't need to be handled by the Wang brothers at all, but this time is more special, and you still have to ask the Wang brothers for their opinions.
"Go, why don't you go, if there is no previous cooperation, Zhou Bai may not invite them to audition. Even if the movie is smashed, the actor can't be blamed, on the contrary, if you can win the heroine, the exposure will not be low, and you will make money no matter what. Wang Zhongjun laughed, in his opinion, this was simply a pie falling from the sky.
