Chapter 25 Finishing
Lin Yi shouted "pass", but there was no expected applause, but it attracted boos. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"What are you shooting?"
"It's just, there are no lines, there are no expressions, what?"
"Are you sure it's not a photoshoot?"
"Gone, gone, watching them film, wasting feelings!"
For a while, most of the onlookers left, and the scene was clean, but the morale of the fat man and a few of them could not help but be affected, Lin Yi cheered everyone up: "Brother, you have read the script, they don't know the goods, let's clean it, hurry up, prepare for the next shot......"
In fact, the second shot is just as simple, all you need is to zoom out a little farther away, from a close-up of Wang Dazhui's face to a close-up of the half-body. And then there was still no talent, just Wang Da Hammer's trademark demented face looked at the toy sword in his hand, and then swung it up and down, as if it was enough to see the flash on the blade.
Li Kuiyuan has already found his senses, and this time he will pass one. However, when Lin Yi shouted "pass" again, the only dozen or so remaining onlookers at the scene also left one after another--Is this a pantomime? Even if it is a pantomime, it has a bit of facial expressions, right?
For a while, all the onlookers withdrew, and even Zhang Han ran away with his girlfriend, leaving only 508 four people, with the leading actor Li Kuiyuan, costumes and stylists Chen Ning, and part-time field attendants Xu Hang and Zhang Huijun still at the scene.
"Director, can't we shoot yet?" said the fat man quite disappointed.
"Nonsense, of course I filmed!" Lin Yi said, "Do you know why I shot these two shots first?"
The fat man chirped and chirped, and said that these two shots were at the front of the script......
"My purpose is to make those laymen feel that watching us filming is boring, can there be fewer people watching, isn't it easier for us to film?" Lin Yi said, "Look at the posture just now, boss, how much effort do you have to maintain order? It's still the weekend today, and there are few people in school, if we really want more people to watch, can we still film?"
The fat man scratched his head, and it felt reasonable.
"Alright, let's get ready for the next shot. Lin Yi greeted, "Fourth, are you ready?"
"It's been ready for a long time!" Wang Chenyang shouted.
"Okay, ready to boot. Lin Yi adjusted the focal length of the lens again, zoomed out the picture a little farther, and then shouted to start shooting.
Although Lin Yi is also involved in photography and videography, he is not a professional after all, and the camera is still a single-lens reflex camera, which cannot be carried on his shoulder, and he does not have a Steadicam in his hand, so he can only use a tripod to shoot fixedly. This meant that it was impossible to shoot long shots, and that close-ups of different characters could only be achieved through post-editing.
As a result, scenes with character interactions in the back often have to be shot from different angles at least three or four times for later editing.
But after all, the script of this episode is only four minutes, and I was busy until twelve o'clock at noon, and finally the whole drama was completed.
Of course, there must be a finale banquet, but the crew of "Never Expected" is too poor, just like the crew of "low-cost martial arts dramas". Therefore, there is only a boxed lunch at the finale banquet, and it is still the cheapest set meal for six yuan a piece eaten at the stall at the school gate.
"We'll do a recording in the afternoon, and we have to shoot another intro ......," Lin Yi said as he took a bite of inferior rice.
"Where do you go to make the recordings? I guess it's not going to work in the dormitory?" the boss asked.
Today is the weekend, the students have no classes, most of the house hangers are nested in the dormitory, the whole building is full of game sound effects, with the sound of playing poker, and even the occasional scream of the teacher Cang is not surprising, where can it be recorded as dubbing? Even if "Never Expected" is a grassroots short drama, and you don't pay attention to any professional recording studio, you must at least find a quiet environment.
"Definitely not," Lin Yi said, "I'll go to the head teacher later, didn't Dean Cao speak?" The school will strongly support us to make a short film, and we'll ask the head teacher to help us find a quiet office later, and it's probably about the same." ”
"Well," the boss nodded, "what about the equipment? we don't even have a professional sound card or microphone, don't tell me you're going to use the microphone that comes with the headphones." ”
Lin Yi patted his head and said, "Exam, I forgot about the microphone...... The sound card can be made with the CMI8738 on my computer for the time being, but there is no microphone......"
CMI8738 is an antique from the twentieth century, although it is not a professional-grade recording sound card, but it is a separate sound card, which is much better than the sound card integrated with the motherboard. Lin Yi's piece is still a big card specially taken from the second-hand market at the beginning, not the kind of knife card and triangle card that can be compared to later, and the amateur recording can still be improvised.
"Why don't I go to another dormitory later, can I borrow a microphone and use it first?" said the fat man.
"No, that kind of microphone for video chat, you can't record at all. Lin Yi said, "Boss, I'll have to go to the barber shop with Chen Ning later, or please go to the place where you rent a camera to see if there is a professional microphone, if there is, rent it back for use, or buy a cheaper one to use first, about two or three hundred can make do with it......"
"Then just buy one, anyway, you will use it often in the future. The Boss said.
"Okay, you're the producer, and you decide how to spend money. Lin Yi said with a smile.
Last night, everyone had all the start-up funds ready, and handed them all over to the boss, who was in charge of all the expenditure accounts. The boss felt a heavy responsibility, and specially found a notebook to record expenses, including today's noon finale banquet, all of which the boss insisted on arranging here -- this meal is public funds, everyone work hard, pick up the cheapest ones, and if you want to eat well, you can treat anyone who comes back, anyway, you can't run out of project funds.
For the boss to be so careful in his calculations, Lin Yi is very relieved, if it is Wang Chenyang instead, I am afraid that the five thousand yuan will not be enough to finish the first episode, and he will have to have a finale banquet with his friends, and it will be a disaster in one breath. For example, now, the girlfriend of this product came over to eat, but the six-yuan set meal was really difficult for his girlfriend to swallow, so he had to pay out of his own pocket to order two meat dishes, and the two of them sat at a table opposite each other and ate alone.
Lin Yi didn't want to complain about this, so he simply arranged for the fat man, Li Kuiyuan, Xu Hang, and Zhang Huijun to go to the head teacher to borrow the office later, and move Lin Yi's computer over by the way. After eating, everyone went their separate ways and agreed to officially start dubbing production at half past one......
