Chapter 289: Relax
In addition to the fixed protagonists, the actors and other big names with cameos came and went, and they only stayed for a very short time.
Zhang Tan stayed in Chongqing, started filming in mid-April, and almost never left the crew except for rainy days. At the beginning of June, after 50 days of hard shooting, the last shot was ushered in.
It's a chase scene.
After being trapped for a day, Blackskin finally climbed up from the sewer, dizzy with hunger, and after seeing the bakery on the side of the road, he was stunned for a while, and then played his usual style, smashed the glass and took the bread and ran. The owner of the bakery is also a ruthless man, riding a battery car and chasing after him.
This scene is mainly divided into two parts for filming.
A shooting vista, black leather and battery car, running one after the other on the circular viaduct. The Chongqing traffic department is very cooperative and has arranged a special traffic police officer to be on duty at the entrance of the viaduct to dredge the vehicles on the bridge to prevent the impact on the shooting.
The crew's camera crew set up a camera on a high-rise building next to the viaduct to include the entire viaduct.
The other takes a close-up shot, giving a close-up of Black Pi.
The morning was a bit overcast.
Zhang Tan stood by the window on the top floor of the building, and next to him was Feng Shaozhuang holding the camera, the lens fixed and aimed at the viaduct.
"Chen Li, are you ready over there?" Zhang Tan picked up the walkie-talkie and asked.
Chen Lizheng took the actors to arrange the shooting task on a section of the viaduct, and when he heard Zhang Tan's question, he picked up the walkie-talkie and replied: "It's already okay, I'll drive the prop car away, director, you can switch channels and give orders directly to Fu Cheng and Dong Zhi." ”
Suddenly.
Chen Li got on the prop car and slowly drove away from the viaduct, and there were no extra vehicles on the bridge. The black-skinned actor Fu Cheng and the bakery manager actor Dong Zhi both carried walkie-talkies. Through the intercom, a prepared answer came.
Zhang Tan then gave an order: "Let's start." ”
The two heard this. Suddenly, one ran desperately in front, and the other followed unhurriedly on a battery car.
"Fu Cheng, pay attention to turning back when you run, and have an intersection with Dong Zhi." Zhang Tan added.
This scene doesn't require any acting skills, don't run too much speed and distance, Fu Cheng can occasionally look back at Dong Zhi. After running for the first time, Zhang Tan announced it directly. Then with the camera crew, evacuate from the building and go to the viaduct. Join up with the crew and start filming close-up scenes.
Fu Cheng bit the bread and ran sadly, Dong Zhi rode a battery car to chase leisurely, and the crew's pickup truck set up a camera, or in the front, or in the back, or on the side, shooting back and forth more than a dozen, and finally got Zhang Tan's affirmation. So far, today's scenes have been filmed, and all the scenes of the whole movie have been filmed.
Get off the viaduct. Zhang Tan excitedly announced: "It's finished." ”
All the crew members who have worked hard for almost two months screamed and cheered, especially Chen Li, a group of young people, who took the lead in participating in the filming for the first time. The significance of the finale is extraordinary.
On the return trip, Chen Li also took the lead in singing: "Unity is strength...... Ready, up! ”
"Unity is strength. This power is iron, and this strength is steel. Harder than iron, stronger than rigid. Think of the fascist firing and letting all undemocratic systems die! ”
Laughter.
The car sped to the crew's station.
"Don't get too excited, let's get the finishing touches done, and everything that should be handed over is complete. In the evening, the Hilton Hotel had a finale banquet to gather and disperse. ”
Zhang Tan was very restrained and did not participate in the cheers.
For others, the crew is finished, and a work experience will end, but for a director, the completion is just a short pause, and then there is post-production that he needs to work hard and can't rest.
But his heart now, like everyone else, is very excited.
The 50-day film shoot was a practice of combining theory with practice. He has studied directing expertise for more than two years at the Beiqi Film Academy, participated in the creation of several TV series and film crews, and made short films himself, and now, he has fused these experiences into a furnace.
made a real movie, which is self-learning and uplifting.
With such a film practice, he can be regarded as a real student from the directing department and become a qualified film director. At least in terms of mastering the crew, he handed over a qualified answer sheet. The rest depends on whether you can master the post-production, editing, soundtrack, and picture well.
Finally, after the test of the market, the standard score of this answer sheet is measured.
……
"Lao Zhang, drink!"
"Okay, drink."
"Xiao Liu, it's done."
"Xu Gong, I respect you."
In the Hilton Hotel, all the members of the crew of "Crazy Stone" ate and drank happily. Those who know how to drink raise their glasses and find their own drinking partners.
Zhang Tan was also toasted a lot, he is the top leader of the crew, usually because of his status as a director, ordinary staff are more cautious in front of him, and tonight he changed his usual caution and ran over to toast him. Zhang Tan also did not refuse to come, drinking deep feelings and dipping shallow feelings.
In short, the scenes are lively and lively, regardless of directors, stars, tricks, and handymen.
"Director, I'll give you another drink." Fu Cheng drunkenly held the wine glass, stood up and held it high, "It's not the director that you picked me, I don't know where I'm messing around now, thank you director, you give me a chance to be an actor, I'm stupid and can't speak, do it first!" ”
After speaking, he poured a full glass of liquor into his stomach in one gulp.
He said this very sincerely, and sincerely thanked Zhang Tan for his support.
Zhang Tan beckoned him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Drink slowly, the dishes haven't been served yet, and people are about to drink it." You thank me, and I thank you, for your wonderful performances. ”
After a few polite words, Zhang Tan took a sip of liquor and didn't drink more, he knew that he still had to drink tonight, and he had to save some strength.
But that's it, the cup he picked up was already the second one.
Wait for the dishes to fill the table.
Zhang Tan's two glasses of two taels of liquor have bottomed out, and four taels of liquor are in the stomach. The strength of the wine began to rise, and I felt a little drunk. He's okay with a lot of alcohol. More than half a catty, and any more, you will have to lie at the bottom of the table. If you drink slowly. Eat more vegetables to cushion your stomach and drink more.
At this time, Susha's role is reflected, whoever dares to fight with Zhang Tan for wine, she will hold a glass of mango juice to someone to drink.
As the proprietress of the crew, Susa drinks juice, and others are embarrassed to drink juice, so they can only drink liquor, and they are embarrassed to drink too shallow. Come and go, who will fill Zhang Tan. You have to weigh carefully whether you will be poured out.
Eating and drinking, seeing that the heat is almost the same, the atmosphere is lively.
Zhang Tan stood up with half a glass of liquor, and under the influence of alcohol, his spirit was much more excited than usual. His eyes swept over the box with five tables and more than 40 crew members: "Ahem, come, all of our crew, let's go together." ”
With Zhang Tan's greeting, everyone picked up their cups and stood up.
Hold liquor or a drink.
"This. It's my first time making a film, and I'm grateful to everyone for working together to make Crazy Stone. It doesn't matter what the movie looks like when it's finally made. It's been almost two months, and we've been working together happily. I hope that next time, we will have the opportunity to cooperate. Cheers. ”
Bang dang.
Wine glasses collide and make many crisp sounds.
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
A staggered finale banquet. Everyone went home with a lot of fun. After eating this dinner, the next day. After the crew finished their respective remunerations, they went their separate ways and scattered.
A short time together, or there will be opportunities to cooperate again in the future, maybe this life is strange.
It's all about fate.
Zhang Tan was not entangled by the sorrow of parting for long, and returned to Bei Ya the next day, and after returning to Bei Ya, he only rested for a day, and began to rush to the post-production of the film.
The first is the clipping.
This is a more patient and meticulous work, and generally commercial films are edited by professional editors, and professional editors will edit the films according to the audience's taste. However, many directors prefer to edit themselves because they can cut out the content that matches their shooting intentions.
Usually the director has the editing rights of the film he shoots, but he does not have the right to cut it. The director will be reluctant to cut his own footage, possibly leaving more than two hours in length, which is obviously a bit long for a film. If the director has cut it, the producer will cut it again to control the time and content.
Even big Hollywood directors don't have the right to cut the final cut.
Around the right to edit, it has always been one of the wars between directors and producers, but for Zhang Tan, there is no such trouble. If he wants to ask someone to cut it, he can cut it himself. With the original version as a reference, he is of course more confident that he will cut it himself.
Other directors are reluctant to discard any shots because they have too many ideas, but Zhang Tan is very simple, he originally referred to the original shooting shots, and he didn't have many ideas.
It's not a pity to lose a little.
So don't edit it too fast, click and click, don't take three or five days, and the film will be cut.
At the same time, the soundtrack, subtitles, and special effects also began to be produced, and Zhang Tan devoted himself to the movie, and all aspects must be under his own control.
It may be a bit overbearing to say, but it can also be said to be responsible for the movie.
Time flies, the film was completed in early June, and the film was completed at the end of July, including the opening logo and end credits, and the total duration was controlled at 108 minutes. From filming to filming, it took three and a half months, and "Crazy Stone" was produced, and then sent to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television for review.
After the trial, Zhang Tan completely relaxed.
He has done all the work he can do, and the rest depends on how Huayi Brothers publicizes and distributes it.
Zhang Tan, who shaved his beard, cut his hair, did an essential oil SPA, and recovered his chic, hugged his girlfriend and proposed: "During this time, I patronized and made movies, and I didn't enjoy a little bit of the life I should enjoy." Sasha, get ready, let's go on a trip for a month. ”
"Okay." Susa simply agreed, and she also likes to travel.
This summer, Susa graduated from Nortel, and then was successfully admitted to Nortel's Acting School as a graduate student to study drama performance creation. took a step in her transition from an actress to an artist. After getting a master's degree, the possibility of staying in school to teach has greatly increased, and Susa has also had acting experience.
Such a teacher, Nortel will not be willing to let go.
As a man of action, Zhang Tan decided to travel and immediately asked his assistant to arrange the itinerary. The last time I traveled abroad, I went skiing in the Swiss Alps, and this time, Zhang Tan and Susa decided to go to Canada to see the maple leaves, without bringing their parents, and simply enjoying the world of the two.
The world is so big, tourism is not only to enjoy happiness, but also to increase knowledge and expand horizons.
Zhang Tan likes to put down his work in such a chic way and indulge in the landscape.
This is the quality of life. (To be continued.) )
