The crew of "Crazy Stone" is in full swing to shoot.

Since the uproar of the start-up ceremony, Zhang Tan has completely closed the crew to avoid interference from the outside world. He has no interest in participating in the promotion of the movie, and believes that with the ability of Huayi Brothers, he can do a good job.

The filming of the movie went more smoothly than Zhang Tan imagined.

Although it was his first time as a film director, he had also practiced short film shooting before, which was nothing more than a multiplier expansion of the crew. In the past two years, I have not given up my study of directing, and I have been a teacher in several crews, and it is very easy to control this small-budget film crew.

Most of the backbone of the crew is Zhang Tan's small team, and the investor is also himself, and he has absolute authority.

There is no one to hinder him, and he can shoot as much as he wants.

This gave Zhang Tan enough energy and mood to adjust his directing status. He's not a talented director, nor is he the kind of director who is particularly skillful. But as the saying goes, if you are rich and capricious, he is in charge of his own crew, and he only needs to convey his own meaning, and the crew will revolve around his words.

No producer jumped out and loudly accused: "Don't shoot this shot, it's too expensive." ”

No investor pretended to be forced: "This plot should obviously be filmed like this and changed." ”

There is no star bullying him as a rookie director: "My lines in this scene are unreasonable, I want to change it." ”

Zhang Tan only needs to modify the original movie details in his mind slightly, and then use his own lens to interpret it.

Any problems in filming, especially in the acting part. Zhang Tan can rely on memory to make the best judgment.

"Lao Guo. That's when you have to have explosiveness, your character's emotions. It's accumulated to the point where it's going to explode, you can't restrain that emotion too much, you've got to spread it to the surface, you've got to keep it on the verge of exploding, you know? Rolled into a cylinder of scripts, knocked a few times in the palm of his hand, and Zhang Tan gave Guo Shuishou acting guidance.

Guo Shuishou is about to run to the fourth, and he is very low-key and sincere in the face of Zhang Tan, a twenty-one-year-old director: "Good director." I'll try again. ”

Zhang Tan nodded, and clapped his hands with the script again: "All units have paid attention, let's do it again." ”

Wang Xiaoyu, who is the assistant to the director, immediately shouted loudly: "Come and come, cheer up, all units are ready to start shooting a new set of shots." ”

The crew, which was originally resting, immediately began to move with Wang Xiaoyu's shout.

Zhang Tan walked back to his chair. The chair behind a set of monitors, next to which an assistant held a teacup with brewed tea leaves, handed it to Zhang Tan. Zhang Tan opened the lid and took a sip. He handed it back to the assistant and leaned back in the chair to find a comfortable position. Look at the screen on the monitor.

Executive director Chen Li began to direct the scene. Supervise the camera crew, lighting crew, recording crew, and site crew.

Executive director is the name of the country, in foreign countries. It is generally called the first assistant director. All the tedious work of the director can be thrown to the executive director, including the face-saving work of shouting "Action". It can be said that the director is the brain, and the executive director is the hands and feet, and he often works on the spot, which is more awesome than the director.

Of course, no matter how awesome it is, it is a supporting role, and the director has to do whatever he asks him to do.

With the scale of the crew of "Crazy Stone", Zhang Tan does not need to arrange an executive director, but Zhang Tan advocates the principle of "those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern people", he is good to be a hard worker, and it is better to let others do the labor thing.

When the groups were ready, Chen Li shouted: "The audience is quiet." ”

The scene reporter took the scene note and walked to the camera lens.

In May, Chongqing has begun to steam, and the weather in the mountain town has been sunny one after another, and the temperature has even soared to more than 30 degrees Celsius at noon, so you can feel the taste of summer.

As Zhang Tan was on the chair, he said unhurriedly: "Action." ”

Shooting begins.

Guo Shuishou led several security guards, in front of the camera, hard-working performers.

A few minutes later, Zhang Tan nodded with satisfaction, this time Guo Shuishou burst out of emotions very well, presenting a perfect picture: "Okay, this one is over, everyone will rest for a while, and the next shot will be taken in ten minutes." Chen Li, invite Luo Yimin over, let's discuss the next action. ”

"Okay, I'll call Lao Luo." Chen Li agreed.

Luo Yimin is the action director of the crew, and there are many difficult actions in "Crazy Stone", and some chasing, fighting, and driving skills all need the help of the action director.

Commercial films in the mainland started relatively late, although there are many people who practice martial arts, but those who can perform film and television martial arts have to find them from Xiangxiang. Luo Yimin was invited from Xiangxiang, and with his dragon and tiger car team, he came to serve as the action director. He is the eldest son of Luo Lixian, a stunt master of the Xiangxiang generation.

inherited his father's action talent and driving skills, which is enough to be competent for the crew's not too exaggerated action design.

Luo Yimin came quickly: "Director." ”

"Lao Luo, I'll be filming a chase scene tomorrow, how are you arranged?"

"In the past few days, I have been around the Luohan Temple, carefully designed, and now I have a set of relatively mature ideas."

Zhang Tan nodded: "Okay, let's talk about it." ”

……

After the crew filmed for about half a month, the candidate for the black skin was found, a young man named Fu Cheng, although he was not very old, he looked anxious and had a bit of a yellow taste.

Zhang Tan tried Fu Cheng's acting skills, which was a little immature, but with a little teaching, he was able to barely meet his requirements. In the case of not being able to find a suitable candidate for a long time, he had to take Fu Cheng over and top it, with Zhang Tan to guide him according to his memory, he should be able to bring the black skin to life.

For Zhang Tan, Fu Cheng is a helpless substitute.

But for Fu Cheng, it was indeed a pie that fell from the sky, and it almost knocked him out.

Fu Cheng is a native of Chongqing, he has had a dream of acting since he was a child, and after graduating from high school, he did not continue to study, and first went to Beiqidang Beipiao, but he did not have the same life as Wang Baoqiang, but because of the harsh treatment of the group, he cut off the dream of Beipiao. After a friend's introduction, I went south to Hengdian.

At this time, Hengdian was only a fledgling film and television city, and it did not have such a loud reputation in the future.

In Hengdian, although Fu Cheng did not mix up, he ran through N many TV series and movies as an extra, and even served as a special actor a few times, and usually exchanged acting skills with friends. A while ago, because summer was coming, the weather in Hengdian was getting hotter, and there were fewer crews, so he often didn't start work, so he came back to his hometown to rest.

It just so happened that the crew of "Crazy Stone" was recruiting extras, and they rushed over to sign up.

Originally, he just hoped to earn some living expenses, but who knew that because of his appearance, he was seen by the director of the crew and asked him to audition for a supporting role.

"Tan Zhang! The King of Writers! ”

Of course, Fu Cheng knew how famous Zhang Tan was, and he was almost dizzy with happiness on the spot, and secretly warned himself that he should show twelve points of spirit and seize this opportunity.

The content of the audition is the transformation from a migrant worker to a theft gang.

Fu Cheng has been wandering in other places for so many years, and his life is no different from that of migrant workers. All kinds of people have seen it, and even witnessed a thief in front of everyone, slicing open the bag of a lady who got on the bus and taking the mobile phone in the bag. Therefore, he broke out his acting skills on the spot, playing migrant workers and pickpockets vividly.

Although after watching his performance, director Zhang Tan only gave a "so-so" comment, but he successfully got the role of black skin.

"I played a role in the movie, a supporting role! Such a thick script! ”

At night, holding the brand-new script that had just been sent, Fu Cheng didn't fall asleep all night with excitement.

"It's still Tan Zhang's movie!"

Fu Cheng couldn't restrain himself from fantasizing about becoming a big star. (To be continued.) )
