Chapter 714: An Old Acquaintance's Phone Call
The literary drama of "The City Full of Golden Armor" was filmed very quickly, much faster than the martial arts scene. Le > Text.
By the end of November, most of the literary dramas had been completed, and only the last few big scenes were left, which were finished after filming, and the remaining scenes were all martial arts scenes.
"Meeting, meeting. Jiang Xia shouted to all the actors to come over for a meeting.
He Ying is still in the crew, her role has long been completed, and she has been following Jiang Xia as an assistant, and Jiang Xia also uses her as an assistant, which is better than Zhuang Hao many times. Zhuang Hao didn't learn acting in the end, he didn't understand some things very well, Jiang Xia had to arrange it more carefully, and he didn't have to be so detailed when he arranged it for He Ying, she understood what Jiang Xia meant.
The actors all came around, and Jiang Xia said: "Now, Classmate He's role is finished, Teacher Shang's scene is finished, Classmate Sha is not here, his role hasn't been filmed yet, his time is different from ours, let's not talk about him." For the rest, I have a lot of martial arts scenes, so I have to shoot slowly, Teacher Lu, Teacher Qiao and Teacher Ding, the rest of the scenes of the three of you are about the same, so I am going to shoot a few big scenes this weekend, plus next weekend, and finish the scenes of several of you. ”
"Okay. All three agreed.
Jiang Xia said: "So, in the past two days, I have to shoot the literary drama, and then I just have to wait for Xiao Haoyu to come over on the weekend and add his role." ”
"How many scenes have the children filmed?" Ding Yiyi asked.
He Ying replied: "Now there are only a few big scenes left, and the other scenes are almost filmed." ”
"Is it so fast?" Qiao Xue said in surprise, "I didn't pay much attention, I thought we were shooting very slowly, Director Jiang is such a demanding person, he has to shoot a shot so many times, why is the speed so fast?"
"The teachers acted well, and the progress was relatively fast. Jiang Xia said.
This is the truth, it is indeed a few people with good acting skills that make the literary drama pass so quickly. Relatively speaking, Jiang Xia thinks that martial arts dramas are difficult to film, but literary dramas are also very difficult to film, especially Qiao Xue's scenes, which require a lot of detailed interpretation, once Qiao Xue has too many NGs, the shooting speed is bound to slow down.
can shoot so fast now, it really depends on the performances of several actors.
Qiao Xue said: "Director Jiang is a good conductor. ”
She is also telling the truth, when every actor has any doubts about his acting skills, Jiang Xia personally demonstrates, Jiang Xia relies on his acting skills to perform for the actors, so that they know how to act, so that they can quickly grasp how to perform the role and imitate it.
"Okay, don't praise each other, let's make this plan first, and after the filming of your literary drama is finished, just like Haoyu, just come over on the weekend. When the time comes, I won't tell you much. Jiang Xia said.
"Okay. ”
Several of them agreed.
Jiang Xia is now focusing on the filming at night.
The scene of that big war, even after such a long time of preparation, Jiang Xia was not sure that it could be filmed, only two shots were taken that day, and now it is only a few more shots, and it is a little worse than the real shooting.
In addition to the scenes of the big battle, there are also several big scenes, such as the scenes where so many palace maids are dressed at the beginning, the scenes where the king returns to the palace at the beginning of Chrysanthemum Square, and the scenes where the Chrysanthemum Square is rearranged at the end, as well as the scenes of the chorus at the end, are all scenes of big scenes, and they are not ready to shoot yet.
Jiang Xia is now focusing all his attention on the decisive battle, and his mind is full of thinking about how to shoot this scene well.
In addition to this scene, Jiang Xia also added a scene with Lu Xiuping.
In the original movie, the second prince Yuanjie was sent out to the border, and when the king went to Tianfu Guanyi to find him, he said a line, "I just want you to remember the mistakes you made before." All things in heaven and earth, what I have given you is your ......"
What is the fault of the sentence "the mistakes you made in the past", Jiang Xia has never known.
He didn't know, he didn't want to explain, and even wanted to delete this sentence, but he couldn't stand Lu Xiuping's questioning at that time, so Jiang Xia simply added a scene.
The added scene is that the king asked the queen to give medicine, the queen said that she was not sick and didn't need to drink medicine, the king had to let her drink medicine, the second prince stood up to stop her, and even wanted to drink medicine for the queen, the king said the same thing, and asked the second prince to pull down. The second prince was very emotional, he didn't retreat, he knocked over the medicine bowl, the king did the same thing, gave him a sword, and then single-handedly pressed the second prince down, and punished him for taking the edge.
With the addition of such a scene, it can explain why there is such a sentence, why the second prince returns to the palace, and the queen is so excited, seeing the second prince with a look of "you have worked hard".
As for how this scene is performed, Jiang Xia is going to put it at the beginning of the film, that is, after the king sits down, the second prince pays homage, and when he gets up and looks at his father, this scene appears in the memories of the second prince.
The newly added scene has no reference to the original version, it is completely Jiang Xia's own design of the shots and lines, which have been designed for a long time.
This scene has not been filmed yet, if it is filmed, Jiang Xia is ready to let Lu Xiuping use the previous tricks with him, so that there is an echo, and the other is that the first time is to be crushed by the whole line, and the second time is to fight in Tianfu Guanyi, which can force the king to be very embarrassed, so that he can match the follow-up lines.
Jiang Xia has a new plan, so he naturally has to discuss it with the assistant directors, and he also has to tell others that the shooting plan is not something that can be set at random, and the drama and field work, props, costumes, etc., have to be connected in series, and they all have to change the plan together.
On the weekend, Sha Haoyu came to the crew and suddenly found that the whole crew began to revolve around him, which frightened the children.
A group of first-tier and second-tier stars revolved around him to film.
"Director Jiang, Director Jiang, what are you doing here?" Sha Haoyu asked.
"Finish filming your scene, so that you can finish it early. Jiang Xia smiled, "Otherwise, you will run back and forth, how tired and panicked, and you won't do your homework, right?"
"It doesn't matter, I won't do it anyway. Sha Haoyu said.
"That's not good, learn from your sister He, people are overlords. Jiang Xia said.
Sha Haoyu looked at He Ying and said a little embarrassed: "If I study well, I won't think about acting." ”
"This idea is not right, learning well is very helpful for acting, you can't read the script, how do you understand the character? If you don't understand the character well, how can you act? This idea has to be changed. Of course, if you want to be only one actor who mixes money to shoot TV series with stand-ins, I didn't say it. Jiang Xia criticized Sha Haoyu Dao.
Sha Haoyu stuck out his tongue and said, "Oh, I'll try." ”
"That's right. Jiang Xia said, "The son can be taught." ”
Zhuang Hao ran to Jiang Xia and said that it was ready, so he was waiting to shoot.
"Shoot well, it's more difficult to play today, shoot well, and strive to shoot it in two days, otherwise you have to shoot next week, it's very troublesome." Jiang Xia said.
In this scene filmed, there is also a scene of Jiang Xia, he came early, he had already put on makeup and waited, and said that he would go directly to shoot when filming started.
A weekend passed, Jiang Xia and they only shot four shots, and the speed made Jiang Xia a little suspicious that everyone's acting skills were eaten by dogs. But he didn't say anything about anyone else, he just stood there with a poker face, and he NG three times, and there was no reason to say anything about others at all.
On Monday, Jiang Xia sorted out and summarized the gains and losses, and found that the most important reason for NG was the group performance, not the leading actors, and the training of the group actors was still not enough.
So Jiang Xia decided to train the group performers in this week, so that they could perfectly move their positions.
During the day, I specially took time to give the group speech how to move, and in the afternoon, I continued to simulate the battle in Chrysanthemum Square, and I came to shoot a few shots at night if I could shoot a few shots.
On Friday, Jiang Xia was holding a loudspeaker on the set to direct the group performance, the phone rang suddenly, and he was about to hang up directly, but when he saw the caller ID, he thought about it and shouted: "Lao Wang, command the point, I'll answer the phone." ”
Deputy Director Wang took over the loudspeaker and continued to direct the group performance to move around, and Jiang Xia came outside the house to answer the phone.
"Hey, why did you remember to call me?" Jiang Xia asked.
"I beg you. ”
"What's the matter, aren't you studying?" Jiang Xia wondered.
The call was made by Xu Fei.
Last year, Xu Fei went to the film academy for further study, and it has been more than a year, and he has made a few phone calls with Jiang Xia in the middle, just chatting without pain or itching, and he also sends a text message during the New Year's holidays, without saying anything specifically, and rarely calls Jiang Xia during Jiang Xia's working hours. Just saw Xu Fei's phone, Jiang Xia estimated that Xu Fei had something to look for him, so he didn't hang up, and now it seems that something is really wrong.
Xu Fei said: "It's studying, but there is a good opportunity, Feifei Entertainment contacted my mentor, or rather, contacted me, and asked me if I was interested in filming the second part of the teenager Bao Qingtian, they wanted to buy the copyright from you and make a sequel to the teenager Bao Qingtian." ”
"Make a sequel?" Jiang Xia said in surprise.
"What?" Xu Fei asked.
"It's okay, let's be specific. Jiang Xia said.
"I can't tell you on the phone in a sentence or two, where are you now? I'll go to you, let's have an interview, I haven't seen you for more than a year, get together. Xu Fei said.
Jiang Xia said: "Okay, I'm filming in Zhedong Film and Television City, call me when you arrive, it's not good for these two days on the weekend, I'm busy, try to next Monday or Tuesday." ”
"Okay, I also have to shout that Feifei Entertainment's people will go over together, and it will be decided next Tuesday?" Xu Fei asked.
"Next Tuesday, I will also call Sister Fang Fei and try to talk to her. Jiangxia said.
"Of course. Xu Fei said.
The matter was settled like this, and after hanging up the phone, Jiang Xia was busy and had no time to think about anything else, so he continued to take the loudspeaker to direct the filming.
