Chapter 4: Cameo appearances
"Boss, I want to rent a camera, do you have any good recommendations?"
In a digital store at the school, Han Qiu and the three of them looked at the dazzling array of cameras on the counter with anticipation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Ye Chen and Lin Hua were looking forward to it because they were very excited, and when they thought that they were going to use a different camera from those bad things before, they were naturally looking forward to it.
And Han Qiu is purely looking forward to it because he thinks that he is going to shoot a tuner, as for the camera.... It's not like he didn't use the top one in his previous life.
The boss's name is Duan Yan, and he is also a young man, no more than thirty years old in appearance, and I heard others say that he was also a student of Huaxia University of Communication before, and according to his qualifications, he should be their old senior.
"The juniors want to make a movie?" Duan Yan smiled and said.
"yes, I'm going to graduate, and I'm going to do my graduation project. Ye Chen nodded.
"Then you guys take a look at this, I just bought it, the latest. Duan Yan pointed to a black camera on the counter and said.
Han Qiu glanced at it, and with his many years of eyesight, this camera was indeed good.
"How do you calculate the price?"
"It's all alumni, I'll be cheaper, 600 a day, but if it's damaged, then... You know!"
"600?" Han Qiu hesitated, not because 600 was too expensive, but because his own funds were too small, and the price of 600 a day was too expensive.
Duan Yan saw Han Qiu's hesitation, did not say sarcastic, and smiled: "What's too expensive? To be honest, my 600 a day is already very cheap, if you go outside to rent, it will definitely cost 800+ price!"
Han Qiu didn't speak, but thought about it in his heart. According to the progress of my own shooting, if it is fast, it is estimated that the shooting will be completed in three days. If the actor makes too many mistakes, or some objective factors cause the delay, it can be completed in five days at most, that is, it will cost about 3,000 yuan to rent a camera.
It's still a video camera, and the camera is more expensive, because that thing needs to be filmed, hehe, with a camera, they don't have enough money for film.
After a moment of silence, Han Qiu didn't continue the topic, but instead asked, "Senior, are you interested in playing a cameo role?"
"Oh?" Duan Yan glanced at Han Qiu with a smile, as if sensing his intentions, and said with a smile: "Well, you know that my business is quite busy. ”
Han Qiu interrupted: "I won't delay you too much, and if our movie becomes famous in school, it will also be a kind of publicity for your store!"
"Hehe, you've drawn a good pie. Duan Yan shook his head, disapproving Han Qiu's words, it's just a graduation project, he really doesn't believe that these three juniors can make any good movies, thinking that in their session, many people just made a short film to get by, and it was impossible to put it on the stage.
"Senior, we are sincere and confident!"
"Faith?" Duan Yan laughed, faith is such a thing, who doesn't have it?
However, when he saw Han Qiu's eyes, he saw a brilliance in them that he had never seen before, this brilliance, he seemed to have only seen in the eyes of a few big directors on TV, but what surprised him was that the brilliance in the eyes of this junior brother seemed to be even more vigorous.
Duan Yan caught a glimpse of the script in Han Qiu's hand, and said hesitantly, "This is your script, can you let me see it?"
"Of course you can, but please don't spread the word to the seniors. ”
"Of course, I still have this kind of ethics, after all, I was also in the directing department back then. ”
Han Qiu nodded and handed the script to Duan Yan.
..........
Half an hour later, Han Qiu and the three of them walked out of Duan Yan's shop.
"Old Han, you really have you, and you really persuaded the senior. Ye Chen looked at Han Qiu with admiration.
"Hehe, it wasn't me who persuaded the senior, but the script in my hand that persuaded him. Han Qiu said confidently.
At that time, after Duan Yan read the script, he agreed to Han Qiu's suggestion to play a cameo role in the movie. And the most important thing is that Duan Yan took the initiative to reduce the price of the camera. The original price of 3,005 days was reduced to 2,000.
And Duan Yan's cameo role is the protagonist's boss, and he and the protagonist have a diagonal scene in the coffee shop, and it is an extremely important diagonal scene.
"However, is five days enough?" Lin Hua said with a puzzled expression.
Han Qiu nodded: "Enough, according to my thoughts, if there are no accidents, three days may be enough!"
"Okay, you're awesome!" Lin Hua served.
"What about the actors and the venue?"
"If you are an actor, it's very simple, just let Ye Chen play the leading role, doesn't this guy know how to play the piano. For the rest, a dancing girl and an old couple will do, and some of the others who will only appear for a few seconds can just go to the passers-by in the school, and I'm sure they will be happy. ”
Ye Chen didn't have any opinions, nodded and said: "I have no problem here, it's easy to find dancing girls, just go to the dance department and pull someone over, it's mainly because elderly couples are not easy to do!"
"This is indeed a problem!" Han Qiu narrowed his eyes and thought: "However, it doesn't have to be an elderly couple, age is not a problem, this can be changed, middle-aged people or forty or fifty-year-olds can do it." ”
In the previous life of "The Tuner", the couple in it was about fifty years old.
"As for the venue, we only need to solve the most important point, which is the scene of the male protagonist's competition!" Han Qiu looked at the two of them and said, "We need a hall. ”
"Hall?" Ye Chen and Lin Hua glanced at each other, and then said in unison:
"The school's auditorium!"
Han Qiu smiled deeply: "Yes, that's it, we need to borrow it and use it." ”
Lin Hua pondered: "This problem is not big, just discuss it with the school." ”
"Okay, I'll leave the venue to you, I'll go find the actors. Han Qiu nodded.
"OK, leave it to us!"
......
After separating from the two, Han Qiu walked towards the literary building he had been to in the morning for the first time. When mentioning the dancing girl before, Han Qiu's heart immediately appeared of the girl he saw in the piano room in the morning. And the main thing is that there is a ready-made piano directly there, and as long as the scene is arranged a little, the scene can be filmed directly there when the time comes.
Now Han Qiu just hoped that the girl could dance.
...........
"What, looking for me to make a movie?" In the piano room, Liu Keke looked at the boy in front of him in surprise.
Han Qiu smiled: "Yes, I hope you can play a cameo role in my movie." ”
"But I don't have any acting experience, huh?" Liu Keke muttered with his back to the piano.
"You don't need a lot of acting for this role, as long as you can dance. Han Qiu explained.
To be honest, the appearance and figure of the girl in front of her made Han Qiu very satisfied, quiet but with a hint of charming little face, slender figure, coupled with the strong contrast with the plot, it can definitely shock the audience.
"Uh, well... Do I have a lot of scenes?" Liu Keke hesitated for a moment and asked this question.
Han Qiu was a little embarrassed, because there were really not many scenes in this role, mainly to contrast the protagonist's behavior. To put it bluntly, in the end, the appearance of this character may be less than a minute.
"Because this film of ours is a micro-film, so.... You don't have a lot of roles..."Han Qiu replied with a dry smile.
"Oh, I see. Liu Ke could see Han Qiu's somewhat embarrassed expression, and he already had a little judgment in his heart.
"Then would you like to join, I will provide a salary!" Han Qiu was afraid that she would refuse, so he hurriedly added.
Suddenly, the door to the piano room was pushed open, and a tall, well-dressed boy walked in. Beside him, there was also a boy with glasses.
"Han Qiu, I'm sorry, classmate Liu Keke has already agreed to our side. ”
