Chapter 082: Film Post-Production and Casting

After the celebration banquet ended, Wang Baoqiang, who was flushed from drinking, chased after Chen Yuan and kept asking questions about the release date of the movie. This is the first film Wang Baoqiang has made since he started filming. He finished the play, but he didn't know the result. He was naturally more anxious.

Chen Yuan understood Wang Baoqiang's urgency. But he is not very clear about the specific time of the movie's release.

From preparation to release, a film is an extremely complex process.

Before all work begins, the film script should be sent to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television for review. After the review, the filming permit can be obtained. in order to enter the pre-film work.

Pre-film, including preparation and shooting. Generally speaking, you should first determine the script, prepare funds, collect information, select the shooting location, draw the set and sketch, make the shooting plan and budget, select the actors, form the film crew, prepare the equipment, write the storyboard, and then carry out the actual shooting until the crew is completed.

The crew was completed, and the preliminary work of the film was completed. This is followed by post-production. This includes developing negatives, editing dailies, and post-production recordings.

When all this work is completed, it is necessary to submit the sample for review, that is, the sample is made available to anyone who needs to review it. If it doesn't pass, it needs to be revised. Once passed, copies can be printed. After that, there is a review. If you pass the review, you can get a license for the release and distribution of the film, and then you can print copies for distribution! The movie can really be released!

The situation of "Nightclub" is quite special, it only took eight days in total for the preparation and filming, and almost all the preparation work was squeezed together, which was very rushed! Before filming began, the film script was not sent to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television for review. In other words, the filming of "Nightclub" is not legal.

However, few people know about it, not even the powerful media.

Later, after the relationship between Director Zhou of the Youth Film Studio, on the third night of the filming work of the crew of "Nightclub", Chen Yuan and others got the shooting permit. This is a major trick for the crew of "Nightclub"! If it is taken advantage of by someone with a heart, things will definitely go in a direction that no one wants to see.

Chen Yuan and others were able to successfully complete the early stage of the movie, which can be said to be very lucky.

Next, "Nightclub" will enter post-production. The post-production of the film is the main event, and the key to whether the quality of the film can really reach the mid-to-high-end level lies in the post-production. The basic process is initial editing, formal editing, composition or selection, special effects, and dubbing synthesis.

In the small conference room of Fuchunjiang Hotel, Chen Yuan said to Guan Hu and Ning Hao: "I am going to hand over the post-production of the film "Nightclub" to the students and teachers in the film academy. ”

"Why?" Ning Hao was puzzled, "It is not easy for us to finish filming this movie in eight days under such great pressure from public opinion." The post-production of a film is crucial to a film, so why don't we do it ourselves and leave it to them instead? They may not be able to grasp the true meaning of "Nightclub" and ruin the fruits of our labor! ”

Guan Hu agreed: "What Ning Hao said is right. The post-production of a film is generally done under the direction of the director. No one can really understand the true intentions of the director, except the director himself! I don't recommend leaving the post-production work to someone else. ”

Chen Yuan smiled faintly and said, "If there is enough time, I am naturally willing to hand over the post-production of the movie to you." But we were really pressed for time. The preparatory work for Dong Ruifeng's "Super Big Diamond" has almost been done, and it will soon enter the filming stage. I heard that Zhang Yuan also joined the directing of that play. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Yuan unconsciously glanced at Li Bing next to him.

Li Bing smiled awkwardly, this kind of thing has nothing to do with her. The ghost knows why Director Zhang went to the opposite side of himself and others?

"Dong Ruifeng and Zhang Yuan join forces, and the filming speed of "Super Big Diamond" will be greatly accelerated!" Chen Yuan said, "My mood is very eager. Not because of anything else, but because I have a breath in my heart! Zhang Yuan and Dong Ruifeng, these two people have taken a fancy to my script, but they have no sincerity to bid for it, and they are playing some villain tricks! ”

Guan Hu smiled bitterly and said, "We all know about this matter. But "Crazy Stone" is different from "Nightclub", not to mention eight days, it is two eight days, three eight days, and we may not be able to complete the preliminary filming work! ”

"That's why I left the post-production of "Nightclub" to someone else! We have to finish the film before them, and at least we can't fall too far behind them. Chen Yuan said, "People live for a lifetime, and fighting for it is a breath!" No matter what, I'm going to fight this breath back! ”

Chen Yuan had already said it to death, and Guan Hu and Ning Hao could only agree to his arrangement.

"It's okay to hand over the film to the teachers and students in the film academy in the later stage, but the finished film must be agreed by the two of us before it can be submitted to the top for double review!" Guan Hu was still not at ease, and specially advised.

Chen Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "You don't have to be too nervous, the filming of "Nightclub" is progressing very quickly, but there is still a long time before it is officially released. At least wait until you finish filming "Crazy Stone"! If you're not satisfied with the finished film of "Nightclub" in the end, you can start again. ”

"Wouldn't that cost a lot more money?" Ning Hao said worriedly.

"You don't have to worry about the funds," Chen Yuan comforted, "The sales of "Sealed Demon" are not bad, and there should be enough funds for us to use." Truth be told, I don't care about spending more, I just want to make the best movies possible! This is my pursuit and my dream ......"

Guan Hu and Ning Hao glanced at each other, their eyes flashing with brilliance. Isn't this their pursuit and dream?

Guan Hu pondered for a long time, talked about the problem of actors, and said: "According to our previous plan, Guo Han plays Bao Shihong, Liu Hao plays Brother Dao, Xu Zheng plays Feng Dong, and Huang Bo plays Heipi. Among these four actors, Guo Han will soon be able to end the matter on his side and will not delay the normal shooting. Liu Hao and Huang Bo have no problem. Xu Zheng's problem is a bit big, his TV series will start filming at the end of the month......"

"What does he mean by himself?" Chen Yuan asked.

Ning Hao replied for Guan Hu: "Xu Zheng himself can't pay attention. He wanted to push that TV series, but he was a little reluctant, and the role in that TV series was something he had won with great difficulty. ”

"What's the name of that TV series?" Chen Yuan asked curiously.

"Spring is shining Zhu Bajie, it seems to be such a name." Ning Hao said.

Spring Pig Bajie? Chen Yuan seemed to have such a name in his impression, and he thought about it carefully, and gradually recalled it.

"Spring Splendid Pig Bajie" is a costume mythological emotional comedy.

Zhu Bajie was originally the smartest pig in the world, he was unwilling to be slaughtered as a pig, and escaped from the pigsty on a rainy night. Tai Bai Xing chased and killed the nine-life cat demon to the mortal world, and was in danger of accidents, but fortunately Zhu Bajie saved his life, and in order to repay his kindness, he turned it into the appearance of its owner Zhu Shusheng and became a person for a day. But Zhu Bajie wants to be a person forever, and Tai Baixing has to chase Zhu Bajie everywhere to turn him back into a pig. Zhu Bajie didn't want to be a pig anymore, so he went around to learn from his teacher, and sure enough, his skills were increasing day by day, and he didn't know that this was the effect of the Qiankun Divine Pill that he inadvertently ate the Nine Lives Cat Demon.

The Nine Lives Cat Demon lost the Divine Pill and searched everywhere to harm the world. Tai Bai Xing suffered an internal injury and became a weak child, losing all his skills, and facing the cat demon, he was powerless. Seeing this situation, Taishang Laojun personally went out and passed on Zhu Bajie's skills. Zhu Bajie, under the great increase in divine skills, together with Tai Bai Xing, went through hardships and dangers to get rid of the cat demon. Unexpectedly, he fell into the emotional entanglement of the little dragon girl of the eccentric elf. It turned out that Xiaolongnu had been blessed by Zhu Shusheng to save her life, she didn't know that Zhu Shusheng was already Zhu Bajie, and she still loved it, after getting rid of the cat demon, Tai Bai Xing wanted to turn Zhu Bajie back into a pig, but found that Zhu Bajie had really become a human.

This TV series should be broadcast this year, and it has very good ratings on major radio stations. Xu Zheng will become even more famous because of this, and the image of Zhu Bajie he created is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, very funny and cute! It is worth mentioning that the two leading actors in the play, Xu Zheng and Tao Hong, met a sincere relationship during filming and became husband and wife. It is rumored to be a good story in the entertainment industry.

Thinking of this, Chen Yuan made up his mind and said, "Since this is the case, then give up the role of Xu Zheng to others." ”

"Then who do you think is more appropriate?" Ning Hao asked.

Chen Yuan was immediately asked. He remembered that the role of Feng Dong was played by Xu Zheng. For a while, I really couldn't think of a more suitable candidate. He thought about it for a while and said: "The character of Feng Dong is a sinister and vicious real estate developer who tries to occupy the land of the handicraft factory. You will find it according to this standard. It doesn't matter who plays it, the important thing is to be able to play it well! ”

Ning Hao nodded, and asked again, "What about the rest of the characters?" ”

Chen Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Ning, you and Brother Guan are the directors, shouldn't you do the matter of selecting actors yourself?" Why do you always have to ask for my opinion? ”

Ning Hao looked embarrassed and said, "I'm used to it this time. You are the screenwriter and know the characters in the show inside out. This kind of casting thing, naturally, should ask for your opinion first. ”

"Okay, then I'll give you a little more reference advice," Chen Yuan said again, "The role of the international thief Mike can be handed over to Huang Xiaoming, and Wang Baoqiang will play Sanbao." That Hou Shu will give it to Sister Bingbing. For the rest of the characters, figure it out for yourselves! ”
