Chapter 5 Joining the crew
Although "Ren Yong" is called "waste Yong", it is actually not very famous, and most students are not interested in a cowardly student who is bullied. When I go back to school, of course, I don't attract onlookers or anything like that. However, when Shen Ao entered the school, he saw someone being watched, and it was said that it was Qianshan School Flower who came back from MTV.
As a third-rate college, Jinxiu Qianshan College is also worthy of its name, with a third-rate reputation, a third-rate teaching, a third-rate area, and a third-rate environment, and the only thing that can be called second-rate is the resources of the entertainment industry, so the director class and the performing arts class are the star classes of the college. Every year, some opportunities will be arranged for school flowers and school grass, and it is up to the students themselves to grasp whether they can grasp it. So far, there are also several students of Qianshan College who are famous, but there has never been a star who can be on the second line of TV dramas.
This year's school flower is called "Xu Yaoyao", it is said that it is beautiful and incomprehensible, Shen Ao looked at it from a distance, and saw that although the crowd was not dense, it still blocked her, and she didn't think about taking a look.
These were sued by Shen's mother when he persuaded him not to take a leave of absence, and originally wanted to persuade his son that even if he wanted to enter the entertainment industry, he could first enter the director class and acting class. But in fact, there is no special relationship, it is extremely difficult to change to these two classes, and Shen Ao does not plan to drag down the family for another two years.
Principal Huang of Qianshan Academy was a fat old man with a smile on his face, very kind, without any embarrassment, and allowed Shen Ao to keep his student status.
The formalities are still done by Shen's mother, because Shen Ao is not as familiar with the school as Shen's mother.
When he walked out of the school again, Shen Ao stretched his waist and felt refreshed!
Li Jiyuan is a well-known serial director in the province, and the last youth drama was successfully broadcast on the provincial station, even if the ratings are average, it has also allowed him to accumulate a certain amount of fame, and he is qualified to call himself a third-tier director. He struck while the iron was hot and filmed another youth drama, and it didn't take long to find a 200W investment. Don't think that those big-name directors have tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of big investments at every turn, for a new director like Li Jiyuan who has only broadcast a youth drama on provincial TV but has no big background, 200W is very good.
However, there are already works broadcast on TV stations, and they are not considered newcomers in the circle, and the media only need to give normal pen fees, and there is no need to give extra red envelopes like newcomers, and they will mention: The director of such and such a film will shoot the youth drama "Grass Times" again. Of course, if you don't give a red envelope, the media won't say good things, but for Li Jiyuan, it's the same whether he is famous or not.
Of course, it is even more impossible for Li Jiyuan to have a crew with him, and the filming crew has to find several teams. Lao Zhang's independent team is a little famous in the circle, and Li Jiyuan also needs to say the word "please" when he looks for them.
Lao Zhang's team is called the Da Zhuang Photography Group, and this part of the crew related to photography is basically done by them. I have to mention that the name of the team was chosen by the boss Wang Hong himself, and it has been complained by the team members so far.
"The Age of Grass" is a small-cost and small-scale production, but Da Zhuang has a good photography profession, and Qian Ruhai, the second boss with the most fame and best technology in the team, personally serves as the director of photography (DirectorofPhotography, referred to as DP or DOP), Lao Zhang's name is Zhang Xi, one of the camera operators (CameraOperator, CO), and the other camera operator is called Huang Qian, who is older than Lao Zhang's qualifications.
As for Shen Ao, who has just joined the crew, he is a studio assistant and his job is ...... Boy.
"Xiao Shen, this table needs to be moved ......"
"Xiao Shen, go buy a few lamps and ......"
"Xiao Shen, pour a glass of water......"
……
Basically all the chores on the set will call him, and he has been running around these days, but he is familiar with the crew. Shen Ao has a rough personality and a bad temper, but more than ten years of training in the last world has allowed him to know when to converge, and how a newcomer can stand firm in the crew.
In the crew, newcomers with no background must first be willing to endure hardships, although the newcomers who are honest on the surface will be bullied, but it is easy for everyone to accept. The second is to lower your attitude, even if you are a Yanying graduate, you can't be presumptuous. The third is thick-skinned, you are a newcomer, no one will want to make friends with you, you are not thick-skinned, you can't know a few people, so after the crew is over this time, not many people will think of you if there is any chance in the future. As for whether you can speak well, it may not be very important, because when you face the whole crew, not everyone likes to talk a lot.
Shen Ao doesn't have marketing eloquence, but he now knows what to say, what to say and what not to say. Do not shirk when you work hard, you are honest on the surface and transparent in your heart, and not many people will hate it. However, directors like Li Jiyuan and those actors naturally don't care about his little miscellaneous work, their needs are all taken care of by the assistant director, and they don't have much interaction with the assistant on the set.
"Brother Wang, why did you ...... the lights just now," Shen Ao asked casually as he handed the water to the gaffer.
Generally, the gaffer is also a photography group, but the gaffer of the Dazhuang photography group is only competent, not outstanding, Li Jiyuan's youth drama can be on the provincial stage, and the gaffer Wang Sanjin has a lot of credit. So this time, Li Jiyuan invited him again by friendship.
In fact, the Dazhuang photography group of the previous generation was founded for more than 20 years, and Qian Ruhai and others had superb photography skills, but one of the reasons why they were always only famous was that they could not find a suitable lighting artist. In his previous life, Shen Ao learned about photography because of Lao Zhang's relationship, but he didn't learn much in other aspects. Wang Sanjin's name, Shen Ao had never heard of it before, but he was indeed a talented lighting engineer, and of course Shen Ao had to find an opportunity to steal the teacher.
Wang Sanjin didn't see Shen Ao's true face, seeing that he was honest and studious, he also gave some guidance casually. Shen Ao knew that the true essence Wang Sanjin would definitely not say, but these points of guidance were of great benefit to him who had a certain foundation, and they were enough to strengthen his foundation, after all, his goal was not to be an outstanding lighting artist.
Qian Ruhai patted Lao Zhang's shoulder and said with a smile: "Xiao Shen Ting will seize the opportunity." ”
Lao Zhang sighed: "Xiaoyong...... Oh...... Xiao Shen, this kid is self-motivated, but he doesn't want to feel at ease, and there are many things worth learning from him in photography. "The last sentence is not spoken, even if outsiders are optimistic that you are willing to give advice, they will definitely hide a few hands.
Lao Zhang also sighed, from the fact that Shen Ao insisted on changing his ID card name before joining the crew, it can be seen that this young man is actually very stubborn. And since you are willing to learn by heart, you can really let others speak, so no matter who you learn from or what you learn, it will be beneficial to your future future. How did he know that Shen Ao may not be worse than him and Huang Qian in terms of photography technology, coupled with the difference in the technical development of the two worlds, he can even be compared with Qian Ruhai, so naturally there is no need to start from scratch.
The highest achievement in his last life is to be an assistant to the director twice, both of which were invested in filming by the rich second generation, and the director is the rich second generation himself who plays tickets, of course, a lot of execution is done by him as an assistant, he is actually an assistant director or even a director. Of course, he is not a genius, both movies were not released, and they were also works on the Internet, but it undoubtedly gave him a certain amount of experience, and more importantly, he knew his shortcomings. In my previous life, because I had to live and my interpersonal relationships were poor, I didn't have time or opportunity to correct them, so of course I had to make up for my weaknesses this time.
