Chapter 204: Details of the preparation of the "Bright Sword" TV series
ps: Ask for genuine support from book friends! Thanks. ,
Since it is said that the "Bright Sword" TV series is going to be filmed, it is inevitable that some details must be taken into account.
Subsequently, Xiao Fei and Ren Gangyi began to talk about the director candidate, the starring candidate, the placement of trailer advertisements, how to pull sponsorship advertisements, shooting locations, script details and so on.
The "Bright Sword" TV series in the previous life was a masterpiece, and the genre of anti-Japanese dramas could hardly surpass it.
In the minds of many film and television fans, "Bright Sword" can be regarded as the most classic anti-Japanese TV series.
In this case, if you want to find a director, starring or something, it is naturally the best candidate to follow the "Bright Sword" in the previous life.
"Brother Ren, I think the role of Li Yunlong in "Bright Sword" should be played by Li Youbin." Xiao Fei said to Ren Gangyi.
"Li Youbin?" A thoughtful look appeared on Ren Gangyi's face.
Obviously, he is not familiar with Li Youbin.
At this time, although Li Youbin starred in a series of film and television dramas, his popularity was not too high, and he was far from entering the first-line lineup.
Xiao Fei knew from his expression that Ren Gangyi was not familiar with Li Youbin, so he said with a smile: "Yes! Li Youbin! He is an actor at Changchun Film Studio, he has starred in the movies "Death Certificate", "Tiangu", and also starred in the TV series "She Was My Wife" and "The Tide Rises and Falls". ”
Xiao Fei prompted.
Ren Gangyi's face was suddenly stunned, and he patted his head and said: "Look at my memory, I remember, I have also watched the movie "Death Certificate", Li Youbin, right?" He played the division commander of the Anti-Japanese Federation in the movie, what is the name of Fang? ”
"Fang Shusen." Xiao Fei said.
"That's right! It's Fang Shusen. Ren Gangyi said with a smile. He hesitated, "Him." All right? It's not very famous. ”
Xiao Fei said with a smile: "He doesn't need to be too famous, the starting point of our drama is still very high." There is no shortage of popularity, what we need is actors who can play good roles! ”
Li Youbin was indeed a late bloomer, and it was not until he was in his forties that he gradually became famous and popular. But even the current Li Youbin is already an old drama bone, and grasping the role of Li Yunlong, Xiao Fei thinks that he can be at ease.
"Okay, listen to you." Ren Gangyi is also very refreshing.
The most important thing for a TV series is to choose the right person.
The first one is to choose the right director. The second is to choose the right main characters in the play.
If the director chooses the right one, the overall situation and general direction of that drama and the quality of shooting will be guaranteed.
And if you choose the main role in the play correctly and play the role in the play, then this TV series is a real success.
Xiao Fei listed all the main actors in "Bright Sword", of course, to get rid of some candidates who are not suitable at the moment.
Like Tong Lei, she played Li Yunlong's wife Tian Yu in the "Bright Sword" TV series in her previous life. But now, Tong Lei is only 16 years old, and it may not be appropriate to play this role.
and Sun Li. Born in 1982, she is only 14 years old this year, and she can't play Zhao Gang's wife Feng Nan.
It's all about finding a replacement actor.
Xiao Fei told Ren Gangyi about the image and character performance of Tian Yu and Feng Nan in his mind, and asked him to pay attention to it when choosing actors.
Of course. The task of casting is mainly the responsibility of the director. Xiao Fei was just afraid of any chaos and mistakes that he said so carefully to Ren Gangyi.
"Hey! Brother, I can be regarded as convinced of you, you are so familiar with these actors in the entertainment industry. Ren Gangyi said with a smile.
"I have a habit. When watching movies and TV series, I always like to remember actors. I remembered so much before I knew it, and. I like to think about them when I'm fine. Xiao Fei explained quietly.
The actor finished speaking.
Xiao Fei talked about the choice of director again.
The director is the soul, brain, and commander-in-chief of a drama, and a good director can best coordinate the overall situation, complete all the filming work and come up with the best editing.
In the previous life, "Bright Sword" was completed by two directors at the same time.
They are Zhang Qian and Chen Jian.
Zhang Qian was born in a film family, his father is the famous actor Zhang Huaizhi of Bayi Film Studio, Zhang Qian himself was born in photography, and later began to take charge of the director, and made a series of film and television dramas.
Chen Jian and Zhang Qian are friends, and the two have always had a good relationship and have collaborated on many film and television dramas.
And Chen Jian is obviously a later bloomer than Zhang Qian, and he almost never directed any works before "Bright Sword".
The filming of TV dramas is often filmed in groups because of the heavy shooting tasks of many episodes, and two or more directors break down the script and shoot separately at the same time.
That's how "Bright Sword" was filmed.
And the shooting is very classic, which shows that the cooperation between Zhang Qian and Chen Jian is quite tacit.
Therefore, Xiao Fei's proposed director candidates are still Zhang Qian and Chen Jian.
"I've heard of Zhang Qian, I've directed a lot of TV series, and he can be regarded as a famous director, and he is from Bayi Factory, so he should be familiar with military-themed TV series, brother, I agreed to your proposal, I believe in your vision! That's it, I'll contact them when I get back. Ren Gangyi said.
Now, Ren Gangyi is a little obedient to Xiao Fei.
For no other reason, when Xiao Fei talked about a certain actor or director, he was simply the first to say, and the analysis was very in place.
Ren Gangyi found that Xiao Fei was more familiar with things in the entertainment industry than himself.
"Brother Ren, I'm just talking about it, there are still a lot of things I need you to do, the establishment of TV series, the review of reports, or something, there are still a lot of trivial matters, and you are busy." Xiao Fei said.
"It's all a small thing, and you've solved a big problem for me now. After I went back, I confirmed the director, and then signed all the actors you said one by one. Now, the most critical point, when will you be able to come up with the script problem of "Bright Sword"? Ren Gangyi said.
The script is so important.
Its importance is no worse than that of the director and the leading actor.
Without a good book, the foundation of a play is gone. Can it not matter?
Although some directors in Hong Kong dare to form a crew to start filming a movie with an idea in their heads, and then write and shoot it on the spot, they can occasionally make movies with taste.
But most of the films are bad movies.
Without a perfect script, it is really difficult to make classics.
"A month, I'll give you the script." Xiao Fei said.
"A month?" Ren Gangyi was taken aback.
No matter how you look at this bright sword, it is a big drama with dozens of episodes, and a script for one episode needs at least more than 10,000 words, which is a workload of hundreds of thousands of words, and it can be completed within a month?
Ren Gangyi was skeptical.
"That's right! I was able to finish the script in a month. I'm going to buy a computer in the next two days, and I can write directly from the computer, which should be able to lift up the speed. Xiao Fei said calmly.
"Okay, brother, don't work too hard, take your time, you can't boil your body down." Ren Gangyi said, "It is a success for this drama to be filmed in the second half of next year." ”
The two talked about other things while eating, and then Xiao Fei sent Ren Gangyi to the county hotel and opened a room for him.
Ren Gangyi told Xiao Fei that he would leave early tomorrow morning, so he would not say goodbye to Xiao Fei, and then he would call him if there was something important, and if there was something important, he would come directly to Xiao Fei. (To be continued......) u
