Chapter 74: Extras
Chapter 74 Extras
The filming site of the crew of "Dream III". Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
These days are all about filming a big scene, which is expected to take a week, and the two film crews A and B are integrated. Most of the actors on the entire TV show up, and the extras needed are the most out of all the scenes in the play. The script alone has more than 100 pages, and the main scenes need to be completed in the Qin Palace.
The art team and props team have to get up before dawn every day these days to set up the scenery, creating a solemn and solemn immortal cultivation holy place, that is, the Tongtian dojo of the protagonist in the game "Dream Three". The crew also had to send people to seal the scene early and patrol the guards, so as not to inadvertently intrude and affect the filming.
This drama depicts that in order to prevent Shen Yujing, the reincarnation of Tianliu played by Li Chunnian, from cultivating into an immortal and returning to Heaven, he led the demon army to break through the barrier of the Tongtian Dojo and wash the immortal family Daomen in blood. This is an important turning point in the whole plot, Director Xu attaches great importance to it, and took the time to hold a small meeting with all the staff before the start of filming, calling on everyone to do their best to shoot this scene, and the personnel of all departments of the crew must take it seriously and not be sloppy in the slightest.
Director Xu's name is Xu Jingmin, but he is in his early forties, with a kind face, and he looks very patient. Gu Lian knows that he is a veteran director, who has been in the TV circle for more than 20 years, with ups and downs, has made a lot of bad movies of the grass station team, and occasionally directed a few films with a good reputation have not been able to set off much turmoil, and the situation has only improved after filming the first part of "Dream Legend" a few years ago. In addition to "Dream Three", the films he will take over later are all professional teams specially invited by other film and television companies to serve as directors, and now he can be regarded as a senior director with a general reputation, and he is very serious and meticulous, which makes investors feel at ease.
Before the start of filming, the scene was busy as usual. Each man stands in his place, fiddling with his own equipment.
The main actors Li Chunnian and Liu Ying both put on makeup early, and in this scene, one of the two stands on the main hall of the Tongtian Dojo, and the other stands under the steps, looking at each other from a distance.
Ling Feiya plays the seriously injured Zikui, who is Shen Yujing's lover, lying in front of Qian Yan, dying.
Shen Yujing played by Li Chunnian is just a wisp of wandering soul reborn into the mortal fetus of Tianliu, and there is no impression of the past at all, and Tanyan has always been obsessed with his feelings for Tianliu, and he can't forgive Shen Yujing for forgetting. The two are opposite each other at this time, and the old love is gone, and there is only endless hatred. One is a disciple of the righteous path immortal family, and the brother of the same master swears to protect him to the death; One is the Demon Dao Warrior Shura Demon Girl, and the countless demon soldiers around her are menacing. A major war between the two sides today is inevitable, and it will inevitably not be good.
However, although the plot is tragic, before entering the main topic, the actors are just standing by, Ling Feiya is bored sitting on the ground, Li Chunnian's foot injury is just right, and he can't stand for a long time, his assistant prepared a simple folding chair, and when it was time to rest, he trotted behind Li Chunnian and asked Li Chunnian to sit down, just at the right time.
The group performers were even more listless, the props and swords they were holding were almost drooping to the ground, and those who were standing had crooked heads and confused expressions, and some simply sat down cross-legged, enduring the strange smell of the never-washed costumes worn by many people on their bodies, and they actually fell asleep with their heads in their arms.
"Hey, Uncle Min, can you, please, let the expressions of your subordinates be a little more firm and stronger, you are a famous and decent family of the Immortal Family, and you are all awe-inspiring and upright, you don't need to be so soft." Assistant director Guan Ming politely greeted the contact person of the group performance, although his face was tanned from the long-term outdoor filming work, he could still see Sven's appearance, and he spoke a little bookishly polite.
Uncle Min, who was full of beard, was also easy to speak, and hurriedly shouted to the extras around Li Chunnian, "Hey, the director said, give me some energy, don't be like I haven't slept for seven or eight days!" ”
The group performers sighed and straightened up, still looking sluggish. It's no wonder that these group performers get up no later than the artists and props teams of the crew in order to wait for the play, and now, the art team and the props team can rest, and their work is about to begin.
Guan Ming sighed, raised his glasses, and became more and more bookish, seeing Uncle Min impatiently turning his head to call and contacting the crew, he didn't dare to rush again.
Gu Lian smiled when he saw this, stepped forward directly, patted Uncle Min on the shoulder, and said sophisticatedly, "Hey, Lao Min, I can tell you, if this scene is not good because of your group performance filming here, I dare not say it to others, in the future, Xia Yi's crew in Hengdian, you don't want to get a task from here." ”
The guy named Lao Min turned around and just wanted to get angry, when he saw Gu Lian, he was stunned, he thought about it for a long time, and suddenly a sentence popped up, "Are you, Xiao Gu, that little girl?" ”
"Yes, long time no see, I'm now Xia Yi's head of this crew." Gu Lian is honest, she just needs to be honest, and it is easy to negotiate deals with guys like Lao Min. "Your group performance is so unspirited, even if we know me, we can't cover you up."
Lao Min looked at Guan Ming and the other staff members who were very polite to Gu Lian, and his shrewd mind immediately realized that what Gu Lian said was true.
"Oh, that's, that's, I'm sorry, I'll get them to be refreshed right away." Lao Min immediately turned his head, ran into the group performance pile, patted this person's head, kicked that one, I don't know who grabbed the prop sword, crackled in the group performance pile for a while, and shouted in his mouth, "Hey, hey, do you want to do it, if you don't want to do it, get out of me, Lao Tzu has worked hard to run the crew for you, so that you have a job to do, just donkeys like you, whip a whip to move the goods, and then be lazy and give me a place to get out of the house as soon as possible, and give up the seat for someone else to do a good job!" Not to mention, after Lao Min was so foolish, it really made many people sober up a lot, and immediately straightened his body with his eyes wide open, held the prop sword in his hand seriously, and made an inviolable gesture.
After such a solid "reminder" of the group performance he brought, Lao Min ran to Gu Lian sweating profusely, "How is it, Xiao Gu, are you satisfied now?" ”
"Lao Min is really still Lao Min, and he is still majestic." Gu Lian smiled and praised, a few of which teased and a few sincerely.
Lao Min's name is Min Jianguo, a strong man close to 50 years old, with a round head, broad shoulders and broad shoulders, and a strong waist and abdomen. However, the supply is oversupply, otherwise you can't even perform the show. Many group performances are still young students from film and television academies around the world, and if "North Drift" can't go on, they simply come here to be "Heng Drift", hoping to give some "Bole" a look at through group performances, there are too many such people. The crew mostly manages the group performances through a person in charge like Lao Min, and if the crew treats them roughly, it is easy to arouse the disgust of the group performances, and if the person in charge does the work, those group performances can usually only endure silently.
"We really haven't seen each other for many years, I heard that you went to Beijing and became a big shot, and when we see each other today, it's really different. One, two, three, four、......" Lao Min counted with his thick hand, and said in surprise, "Oh, we haven't seen each other for five or six years." How about it, have you seen a lot of the world over the years? I heard two weeks ago that the crew of "Dream Three" has a new powerful young man, still a woman, surnamed Gu, I muttered in my heart if it is you, I have been to the crew a few times, but I haven't met you, fortunately, today, fortunately, I met it, sure enough, it was our Xiao Gu! Back then, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have gotten a penny for our group performances,......"
Gu Lian was very unhappy that Lao Min was talking about his past so much, and after enduring it for a while, he found that he didn't mean to stop, and when he saw Guan Ming on the side listening to him with a puzzled expression, he interrupted Lao Min who was about to continue talking, "The past, can you not mention it first, the drama is about to start filming, I see that you are also busy, is there anything to talk about next time?" ”
Lao Min has been mixed up for so many years, how could Gu Lian not understand what he meant, and hurriedly patted his fat and round head as if blaming himself, "Look at me, I am so happy that I can't take care of anything when I see you, so let's do it, Xiao Gu, you leave a phone number for me, if there is anything, we will contact again, haha......" Lao Min took out his mobile phone and looked at Gu Lian with a wink.
Looking at his posture, Gu Lian knew that this old fritter must not stop until he reached his goal, and he didn't want to give it to him, but he had to give him a number when he was staring at him on the spot. Lao Min just turned around and didn't take a few steps, when Gu Lian's mobile phone rang.
"Ha, I'll try it, this is my phone, I have something to contact." Lao Min looked back and smiled.
This ghost guy, are you afraid that the mobile phone number you gave is not real? Gu Lian snorted coldly in his heart.
Lao Min's mobile phone also rang, he picked up the phone to take a look, it was estimated that other crews were urging him to be in a hurry, and Lao Min hurriedly ran away while answering the phone.
At this time, the drama is about to start filming, and everyone's preparations are done.
Guan Ming saw that there was nothing wrong with him, and quietly stepped aside, wanting to go to Director Xu's side to observe. Gu Lian happened to be going to Director Xu's side.
Guan Ming and Gu Lian walked side by side, glanced at Gu Lian several times as they walked, and stopped talking.
"Just ask any questions." Gu Lian felt that his appearance was a little funny. I want to ask but don't dare to ask, I really don't look like someone who has graduated from college for a few years.
Gu Lian heard Director Xu mention that Guan Ming followed Director Xu as his deputy as soon as he graduated, and he was the most important disciple of Director Xu, and he also followed Director Xu's usual careful, serious and rigorous style. Gu Lian thought of the meticulously marked shooting schedule behind the script used by Guan Ming, and even his script was in this style, that is, he was a little wooden, a little angry, and he was a little angry with the book, and when he spoke, he was polite and polite like he had just done to Lao Min, but at first glance, he was too tender, and he couldn't get the support of an old oilman like Lao Min.
"I didn't mean anything else, it was the first time I heard about it. Have you done a group performance in Hengdian before? Guan Ming got Gu Lian's approval, so he asked his questions with confidence.
Gu Lian nodded, "I have done it, that's why I know Lao Min." ”
"It seems that you have a lot more stories than I thought." Guan Ming was surprised by Gu Lian's straightforwardness, and immediately smiled at her.
"I'm sure everyone here has their own long story, including the ensemble." Gu Lian pointed to those extras who worked hard to make backgrounds, and shrugged his shoulders again, "But few people have the patience to listen to other people's stories, and few are willing to tell their own stories." So, we're passionate about telling stories in the unreal, let's go, we're about to get started. ”
Gu Lian walked quickly towards Director Xu.
Guan Ming followed behind her, striding to follow, thinking about Gu Lian's words, thoughtfully.
