Chapter 31: Transition Shooting
"Take it off!"
"Take off more, stickers!"
……
The lights in the 'Lanruo Temple' were bright, and the shot at this time was Ning Caichen hiding in Nie Xiaoqian's boudoir. What needs to be shown in this shot is Nie Xiaoqian's beauty. Wearing a red gauze cover, you finally need to sneak into the bath bucket to give Ning Caichen.
“CUT!”
"Xiaoxian, I know you're cold, but pay attention to your expression. Work hard, Rong Shao is going to freeze in the bathtub!"
For the non-stop 'NG', Chen Xiaodong is still very patient. He was born as a martial arts instructor, like an actor frozen in water, that's all trivial. If it were an action movie, it wouldn't be like that.
For example, Fang Long, who is now on fire, has to try to shoot more than a dozen times for every dangerous action they shoot, and then really shoot it many times. If you're lucky, you can pass it once, but if you're unlucky, then the stand-in martial artist will be miserable. For example, jumping from the second floor, the stand-in may have to jump more than a dozen times, but if something goes wrong, it may be disabled for life.
The filmmakers in Xiangjiang are all desperate, especially those dragon and tiger martial artists, who dare to do all kinds of dangerous actions, although they don't make much money, but they definitely shoot fatal shots. So like Zhang Baorong's underwater shots now, Chen Xiaodong thinks it's so simple.
“OK!”
Just after another one, when Chen Xiaodong felt that it was okay, Chen Jialuo frowned and said, "One more, Xiaodong." ”
Chen Xiaodong said: "Do you want another one? I think you can pull it!"
Chen Jialuo shook his head and said, "After Rong Shao and Xiaoxian kissed, their expressions were wrong. He's going to show a little happiness......"
……
After the director and producer fought each other, they finally filmed three or four more times. In fact, everyone has known this result for a long time. Since the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story" began, Chen Jialuo has intervened in the filming as a producer not once or twice.
No matter how unpleasant it is, the final shooting result is still subject to Chen Jialuo's opinion. In this regard, everyone said that Chen Jialuo is actually the big director behind the scenes.
In fact, Chen Xiaodong has no choice, and all kinds of unpleasantness between the two have long been reported. Therefore, Xu came to visit the class several times, and finally said: Xiaodong, in terms of shooting, you still have to rely on A Luo's opinion.
There's no way, who calls people a serious director, and he is just a martial arts instructor! Fortunately, Chen Jialuo only provides advice on the action, and Chen Xiaodong is the real decision. This can be regarded as leaving a fig leaf for him, the director, otherwise one of the two will have to leave sooner or later.
"Wow, helmsman, you're going to play with us like this in the last shot, you're freezing to death!"
Zhang Baorong, who came out of the water, trembled, and the staff also hurriedly took clothes to put on him and Wang Xiaoxian.
At the end of the shooting, Chen Jialuo also changed his smile and said: "No way, Rong Shao, this shot will make the audience like you so much." ”
Wang Xiaoxian pursed his lips and said, "My brother always laughed before, which made me freeze!"
Zhang Baorong quipped: "You are so beautiful!"
Saying that, Zhang Baorong whispered to Wang Xiaoxian and said: "You are so good, just like Ah Tong I cooperated with at the beginning, you are naturally suitable for eating this bowl of rice!"
Wang Xiaoxian understood what Zhang Baorong meant, and said helplessly: "We actresses are all at a loss!"
In fact, both actors and actresses are the same, if you don't have that coffee seat, many times the crew won't take too much care of you. If it is the current sexy goddess, Zhong Qiushui, the first sister in the film industry, as Nie Xiaoqian, then the director must clear all her glamorous shots.
Why?
People are big names now, even if they just show their backs, the shooting scene is not something that ordinary staff can secretly watch.
Although Wang Xiaoxian has made several movies before, he is not a big name in the film industry, so he will not get those generous treatments at all.
……
"Alright, are you all packed?"
"Well, I can finally get out of this hellish place! On Lantau Island, I'm going crazy going back and forth every day. The legs are weak in a hurry, and it is too troublesome. ”
"Don't complain, let's go! It's good that you don't have to shoot today, hell. Otherwise, there will definitely be no state......" Chen Xiaodong scolded, but the shooting of leaving Lantau Island finally made him breathe a sigh of relief.
After three months of filming, the most difficult part of the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story" has passed, and the remaining scenes are not difficult.
From the beginning of the ambition to the current is a little powerless, Chen Xiaodong's grievances can be imagined. originally thought that as a director, he would be able to control the crew and shoot a movie of his own. Unexpectedly, during the three months on Lantau Island, he gradually became Chan Ka Lok's 'puppet'.
In the early stage, a small part of the scenes directed and filmed by himself were asked by Chen Jialuo to reshoot a few more shots for various reasons. As for the later shots, he almost became an assistant director, responsible for implementing Chen Jialuo's opinions.
However, Xu You's opinions on filming are still on Chen Jialuo's side, which makes Chen Xiaodong have some doubts about his shooting ability.
Perhaps, it is still suitable for me to be a martial arts instructor?
"Finally a good rest and a hot coffee. In the conference room of the film studio, Chen Jialuo, Chen Xiaodong and others leaned comfortably on their chairs.
The crew and actors were all rested today. Since the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story" began, everyone has been busy. It wasn't until yesterday that the filming of Lantau Island was completed, and everyone finally got a chance to breathe.
However, Chen Jialuo and the other main creators began to talk about the follow-up shooting in the conference room. "I used to think that staying in the company every day was very tiring. This time I went to Lantau Island to be a savage for a few months, and I finally realized that I was most comfortable in the company. ”
"Xiaodong, didn't you say that location shooting was trivial to you!" Hearing Chen Xiaodong's words, Chen Jialuo teased.
"I'm talking about TVB filming costume dramas, but I spent a few months on Lantau Island before I filmed...... According to my meaning, it should be interspersed and filmed, hell, it is also a shame that Rong Shao and Xiaoxian were able to endure it, and they were replaced by some brothers and sisters of the previous TVB, and it is estimated that it would have been a troublesome time ......"
Although Chen Xiaodong did not completely break with Chen Jialuo, he still showed a little dissatisfaction in his words. But in the end, it comes down to disagreements about the filming, and various disagreements about the directing rights.
Fortunately, there was Xu You's pressure on it, and the two worked together without any major problems.
For Zhang Baorong and Wang Xiaoxian, everyone sees their efforts. This kind of shooting is indeed a great test for the actors. But fortunately, several of them are able to bear hardships and stand hard work, and there are no complaints about the whole shooting!
Liu Haitang patted his cheeks and said with emotion: "I finally got through it, I will go to the studio from tomorrow, it is much more comfortable." ”
Chen Jialuo said: "Haha, Begonia, you run three sets a day, it's enough to fight!"
Compared with the other staff members of the crew, Chen Jialuo and others are really much easier. The ease in this regard is that they don't have to run several crews a day to participate in filming. Of course, in terms of pressure, being the main creator is definitely the biggest.
