Chapter 66: The crew starts filming
Seeing this, Yu Le couldn't help but joke: "Heh, invite me to a meal, you still have a net of dozens of yuan, it's really a good business!" ”
Wang Fei'er said proudly: "People don't recognize your money, and it's for nothing." Remember, I invited this meal, and you owe me a favor! ”
Yu Le was speechless. This bandit mentality, with the police profession, really complements each other!
Out of the restaurant, Wang Fei'er said: "Okay, eat and drink enough, go back to their respective homes." ”
Yu Le looked at her sadly and said, "I'm also alone when I go home, why don't you take me tonight!" ”
Looking at Yu Le's expression and listening to his sassy (wave) words, Wang Fei'er couldn't help but shudder.
Remembering the last time she brought Yu Le home, she wanted to kick him.
"Humph! If you want to go home with this girl, you should cleanse yourself first! Wang Fei'er gritted her teeth and said.
When Yu Le heard this, he suddenly felt cold under his crotch.
He folded his legs slightly, and said with a wry smile: "You are also exaggerating! I still have something to do, I'll make an appointment next time! ”
After saying that, he seemed to have to get into a taxi and return to the villa where he lived alone.
Looking at the picture of Yu Le fleeing from the wilderness, Wang Fei'er raised her eyebrows, clenched her fists, and waved a few times, revealing the joy in her heart.
The next morning, Yu Le woke up with nothing to do, and felt bored.
He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh: "Just a few days later, I was empty, bored and decadent. ”
After pondering for a while, he suddenly thought that today is the time for the crew of "Never Expected" to start filming, and it just so happens that he doesn't know how to shoot dramas, so he went to the crew to see and kill the boring time.
Thinking of the shabby appearance of the crew's preparations, Yu Le shook his head a little.
Not because of the composition of the personnel, but because of the equipment.
Except for a few prop cars and vans, which were purchased in the name of Star Entertainment Media Company and temporarily used by the crew. Most of the other equipment, including video cameras, is rented on a temporary basis.
No way, just starting, Yu Le also wants to go safer. He didn't want to buy a bunch of equipment and be in the warehouse after the series was filmed.
After much consideration, he decided to rent equipment to shoot. Although the price is not low, it can be said that it saves a lot compared to the large purchase cost.
The script of the first episode of "Never Expected" was slightly adapted by Yu Le. The main character's name is "Luo Sledgehammer", nicknamed "Sledgehammer", and compared to the prototype on another planet, his clothes are more shabby, and some patches have been added, giving him a bit more of the image of a down-and-out warrior.
In short, it is the Diao silk warrior who saves the princess with the intention of reaping love, career, and fame.
For the story of the first episode of the original "Never Expected", he did not make major changes, because the original drama is interesting, emotional, sarcastic, contrasting, and rich in connotation.
As for the actor of Luo Da Hammer's rival play, after Yu Le and Zeng Fan discussed, they chose a group actor who was whiter and more tender and fat than the original character.
The crew was built in a farm outside Lecheng, where they ate and lived.
When Yu Le took a taxi to the farm, he saw that the crew had already set up the set, so he stepped forward to say hello to Zeng Fan and other crew members.
In order to save money, Yu Le discussed with Zeng Fan and announced: "Everyone work hard, let's audition first and find out how I feel." ”
The crowd responded in unison.
Watching the rehearsal of the two actors, Yu Le muttered a little in his heart. The actor of this Luo Sledgehammer lacks a bit of simplicity and stunned feeling. Although the actor is not young, he has not been in the industry for a long time, and he is slightly jerky and nervous under the camera.
Although this drama does not require the acting skills of the actors, Yu Le does not want to make a bad drama.
He explained to "Luo Da Hammer": "What do you think of our crew? ”
"Luo Da Hammer" looked at the surrounding environment and said: "It's very simple! ”
Yu Le nodded and said, "Yes." But the crew environment of the Luo Da Hammer you play is even worse.
You have to figure out what kind of emotions and mentality the characters have when they perform in a worse crew. Not to mention the game-like martial arts shots, shoddy special effects, and unchanging opponents. ”
After a pause, he continued: "Have you read Don Quixote? ”
"Luo Dazhui" replied embarrassedly: "I have only heard of this literary character, but I have not read the original book. ”
Yu Le reluctantly explained: "He is deeply poisoned by chivalric novels, and he has some mental problems. He fantasizes that he is a knight, with windmills as castles and sheep as enemies, and he has a kind of hysteria. ”
"Luo Da Hammer" said a little stunned: "Is it necessary for this kind of character to show such a complex of emotions and thoughts?" ”
Yu Le said angrily: "Comedy is to tear apart the worthless things in life for others to see." Is there any educational significance in the content of our show? No. It's just that contrasting, exaggerated, and absurd pictures are used to bring people visual or ideological subversion, so that people can relax and enjoy. ”
"Luo Da Hammer" said ashamedly: "Producer, I understand, I'll figure it out first, and try again in a while." ”
Yu Le encouraged: "Come on! ”
looked at the "fat man" who was playing against "Luo Da Hammer", Yu Le smiled and said: "Your camera sense is a little poor, and you need to adjust your emotions." In addition, according to the needs of the script, you also have to show a little more oil, some traces of a soft mother, but don't be too exposed, the effect will be better. ”
Zeng Fan listened to the conversation between Yu Le and the two actors next to him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He never expected that such a simple comedy short film would have such high requirements for actors.
Therefore, he asked: "This requires actors, which is comparable to a formal film and television drama." ”
Yu Le said with a smile: "Although this drama is defined as an online short drama, the comedic effect that should be achieved cannot be missing."
For him, filmmaking must not allow anything to fool the audience; At the same time, as the creator of the script, he also wants the actors to perform the effects he wants. ”
Zeng Fan nodded and didn't say anything more.
He knows that every screenwriter hopes that the actors can thoroughly understand the content of the script and the essence of the performance.
It's just that Yule's requirements are obviously more stringent.
Half an hour later, Zeng Fan looked at "Luo Da Hammer" and "Oil Fat Man" and said, "How are you preparing?" ”
The two leading actors looked at each other and said in unison: "We're ready." ”
Zeng Fan nodded and said, "Okay, go again." ”
Soon, the crew was ready. "Luo Sledgehammer" and "Oil Fat Man" rehearsed again.
The performance effect is much better than last time, but the actors' performances are still a little tight, not open enough, and the word exaggeration is not used well.
