Next chapter
This is Feng Xiaogang's first time acting in a movie, he is ready to go, but he feels a little cold, this day is a sunny day, the sun is good, the temperature is about ten degrees, and he has to wear a sweater and coat.
Some of the students below wore long sleeves and some wore short sleeves, and they found it interesting to make a movie, and they were very interested.
However, after acting a few times, I felt bored, and the crew had to find a way to mobilize the students' feelings, and making a movie was a process of repeated adjustments, especially for directors like Jiang Wen.
Lin Zixuan watched from the side, staring at the progress of the crew.
The movie is not half finished yet, and it is definitely going to enter winter, and filming summer scenes in winter makes it feel cold when you think about it.
Wen Jun went back to Xiangjiang to fight for the last investment, but it was useless to call, and the investor became suspicious.
This time, he will bring investors to the capital to visit the class, which proves that the film is still being filmed, and increases the confidence of those bosses.
To be honest, Lin Zixuan agrees with Jiang Wen's statement that a good movie needs to be carefully crafted, and art is built up with money.
If you can't shoot a hundred times with one shot, shoot a thousand times, and you can always find a perfect shot from it.
However, he is the producer of this film, and he can't let Jiang Wen be so meticulously crafted, according to Jiang Wen's method, the film can't be finished at all, not to mention that no advertiser is willing to invest in an art film.
Advertisers love commercial films, which means they can't even sell in-place ads.
Especially now that the wind is so tight, there is no investor in a film with this theme in China, and no investor will invest in a film that is likely to be released.
Lin Zixuan only hopes that Wen Jun can persuade the bosses in Hong Kong and Taiwan to increase investment, otherwise it will be very difficult to finish filming.
"It can be regarded as the toss is over, but there are too few scenes and there is no room to play. After filming this scene, Feng Xiaogang said with a little regret.
"You're not a professional actor, I don't have strict requirements, and you have a few expressions that aren't natural enough. Jiang Wen pointed out.
"I was cold, and my face froze. Feng Xiaogang gave himself a reason.
"Isn't Xia Yu cold? every time he looks good, this kid is born to eat this line of food, the first time he acted, he had no acting experience, but he wasn't nervous at all, unlike you, it was so difficult to match a play. Jiang Wen said.
"He's young and vigorous, can I compare with Xiao Young at this age?" Feng Xiaogang argued.
The two are used to arguing, this kind of scene is quite normal, and it was like this when I was in New York.
At that time, Feng Xiaogang was the director, and he found fault with Jiang Wen, but now in turn, Jiang Wen naturally wanted to find Feng Xiaogang's fault, there was no malice, just joking.
Lin Zixuan watched it from the side, and to be fair, as a cameo amateur actor, Feng Xiaogang's performance was good, but compared with Xia Yu, it still seemed insufficient.
Xia Yu entered the crew a little late, trained in the military camp for more than half a month, and did not have any acting experience before.
His biggest advantage is that he doesn't have stage fright, or he doesn't think there is anything great about acting, just let him act, it's not a big deal, and he has a kind of energy that doesn't care.
There are quite a few such actors in this crew.
For example, the female No. 2 Tao Hong is a synchronized swimmer and has never acted, but she acts generously and naturally, and is full of charm.
They don't rely on acting skills, they may be in line with the role, or they may be highly savvy.
Anyway, there is a natural feel to their performances, as if this character is written for this person, and this kind of person is born to be an actor.
"Brother Jiang, when are you going to put that scene in me? Don't really go to winter, it's going to be offended. Lin Zixuan said worriedly.
"Besides, I still have a lot of work to do. Jiang Wen changed the topic and said, "Wen Jun will come back the day after tomorrow, let's discuss how to deal with investors and take down the investment." ”
"Invite them to dinner, drink them down, and it's easy to talk about it. Feng Xiaogang came up with an idea.
"Find someone to take them to visit the major scenic spots in the capital, eat, drink and have one-stop service, just as if they are here to travel, anyway, they spend their own money, and it is all included in the entertainment expenses of the crew. Lin Zixuan said.
"You're even more ruthless, the wool comes out of the sheep. Feng Xiaogang sighed.
"Okay, let's take the funds, I guess it's no problem after the shooting. Jiang Wen said confidently.
"You'd better save some flowers. Lin Zixuan reminded.
He couldn't believe Jiang Wen's assurance, Jiang Wen had promised to finish filming before December, when would it be.
Besides, after the filming is over, there is still a post-production zuò, where does the money come from, and now it can only be one step at a time.
Lin Zixuan and Feng Xiaogang rushed to the Air Politics Center, "The Story of the Cooking Class" is about to start filming, this is the first TV series of Good Dreams, and it must be a bumper harvest of word-of-mouth and profits.
The filming took place in the studio of the Air Politics Center, and several of the main actors were ready and eager to try.
In order to shoot this drama well, they rehearsed hard and tried to show their best.
Feng Xiaogang originally wanted to let these actors run in, but looking at the appearance of these people, he decided to start filming directly.
Generally speaking, the actors in a crew are from different units, they are not familiar with each other, and they need to run in for a period of time to find a feeling, but the actors in the Air Politics Center are from one unit, and they are together all day long, and they are very familiar and do not need to run in.
The only thing that needs to be run in is Feng Xiaogang and the staff behind the scenes.
However, for directors who have filmed large-scale zuò like "Beijingers in New York", sitcoms are a breeze.
"It's easy to shoot and I think it can be sped up. Looking at the shooting effect, Feng Xiaogang said confidently.
"Then let's keep improving, make a classic, and don't add too much irony. Lin Zixuan reminded.
He was worried that Feng Xiaogang would make "The Story of the Cooking Class" into "The Story of the Editorial Department", and the difference between the two TV series is very big.
The former shows the splendor of military life with a variety of characters and stories, mainly satirical.
If you confuse the styles of the two, it is estimated that it will not be broadcast.
"Don't worry, when I was in the army, I was engaged in propaganda, I knew what to do, and I always served the people, as long as I remembered this purpose. Feng Xiaogang concluded.
In this way, Lin Zixuan is relieved, Feng Xiaogang is a veteran in the circle, and all kinds of rules are clear, so he is too worried.
Compared with the relaxation here, "Sunny Day" is a little nervous over there.
Wen Jun brought an investor surnamed Tang to visit the class, Jiang Wen and they talked nonsense, when asked why they had to shoot so many films, it was too wasteful, Jiang Wen replied.
"I have to shoot everything, just like a person, I patted my head, my neck, my chest, and my feet, and you don't let me shoot the middle part, how can I take it?" )
