Chapter 25: Shooting

Hirohiro skipped the video as he said. In the second video, Li Faka and Huang Tingting rehearsed from scratch.

"Could it be ......" Hirohiro realized something. If the young man in front of him dares to say this, then there must be something amazing behind.

He watched it for a few seconds, then jumped down to another video. This time, the scene changed, moving from the boulevard to the school building. But the two girls still have exactly the same movements.

Guanghong only looked at the beginning every time, and saw that the two actors were becoming more and more skilled. Comparing their performance in the first video, it was a world of difference.

Hirohiro's expression became more and more complicated, and he suddenly remembered the time three years ago. He didn't have any apprentices, and he didn't have to think about the future of four or five young people, and all he hoped for was to have a team that could help him in the same boat. It's a pity that he didn't come across.

Xu Fu could see Guanghong's touch, and thanked the three girls in the team for their efforts in his heart. If it weren't for the help of Qu Jingmo, Li Fake, and Huang Tingting, who could Xu Fu convince with just one mouth?

It was only then that Xu Fu handed over the script again.

This time, Hirohiro didn't throw the script away. He first returned the mobile phone to Xu Fu, then took the script and opened it carefully.

After a cursory flip, Guanghiro said, "Let's go in and sit down." ”

There were still two bottles of iced green tea on the coffee table, which seemed to be used by Hirohiro to entertain his juniors, one of which was unlied. Guanghong picked up the bottle, handed it to Xu Fu and said, "You can drink some water." ”

Xu Fu took it, opened the cap, and took a big sip. With exquisite storyboards, rehearsals, and scripts, the other party finally looked at Xu Fu, a team with no experience and no resources!

Guanghong thought for a while and asked, "How much does it cost you?" ”

"Five thousand." Xu Fu was blunt.

Guanghong squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Fu, as if he was making some kind of measurement in his heart.

A small boss like Guanghong only does things for money, and everything else is empty. But sometimes, long-term benefits can replace short-term benefits. If Hirohiro participates in the filming of a popular work, his fees will increase a lot in the future.

The benevolent brother who was kicked out just now came with this line of thought.

Xu Fu thought the same. But the difference is that Xu can come up with something to prove himself.

Xu Fu was fearless and looked directly at each other. He has nothing but the desire to make a difference. Whether you want to believe him or not, it all depends on Guanghong.

Guanghong didn't say a word, looked at Xu Fu for a few minutes, and decided to take the risk. He said, "I'm thinking about this from your point of view now. You take four thousand and shoot it. Vacate a thousand please makeup artist. You do it yourself after editing. Okay? ”

It's a miracle to get studios to come up with ideas to help clients save money. Xu Fu hurriedly agreed: "Okay." ”

Guanghong said again: "You only have two roles in this micro-movie, and you should be able to get it in two days at most." On the first day, I led the team and filmed all the complicated shots. The next day, I asked my apprentice to finish the rest. A total of four thousand will be charged to you. What do you think? ”

Xu Fu didn't have to negotiate the price inch by inch. Knowing that it is impossible for the other party to post money to help themselves. With a thousand yuan, Guanghong may have to be busy for nothing. Xu Fu agreed: "Just do it." ”

"In addition, I have a requirement that the opening and ending credits should be marked with the 'Streamer Shunying Studio' in a prominent place." Guanghong Road. Take the initiative to make concessions, that's for this. He bet that Xu Fu's works would become popular, and the photographer would also become famous, and the tide would rise.

Xu Fu said very simply: "It's totally possible." The name of your studio will be under the name of my 'Zhefu Team'. The font is the same. ”

"Zhefu team" is the foreign name of "four-person team". "Team of Four" is translated into English as "The.Four", and then converted into Chinese is "Zheno". It sounds both profound and unbelievable.

Cooperation is negotiated. Guanghong didn't mention anything like the deposit, pre-payment of the shooting fee, and directly agreed on the shooting time. However, Xu Fu wants to take Guanghong to see the venue a day or two before the shooting, everyone has a plan in advance.

Xu Fu solved the problem of photography and told Qu Jingmo about this progress.

Qu Jingmo also found a filming location, which is Li Fake's home. Li Faka's parents were very open-minded, and when they heard that their daughter was going to make a movie as the leading role, they decided to travel to other places and give them the house to use.

By now, I have almost prepared in advance, just waiting for the official shooting. Xu Fu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It's been like a war all this time, and I can finally relax.

Back to the dorm. A few roommates are still playing games. Xu Fu talked to them for a few words, and then turned on his computer to learn editing skills. Slacking doesn't mean messing up time, he has to prepare for the later stage.

……

It's time for the shoot.

Today, Xu Fu and the four of them have been looking forward to it for a long time, and they went to Li Fake's house early in the morning and rehearsed a few times on the spot. Their performances are already a bit convincing, and they won't feel too fake to watch.

These advances do not come out of nowhere. It is because they rehearse repeatedly, correct mistakes, and gradually improve, that they can become like this. Xu Fu saw it in his eyes and was very moved.

It would be unfair if they were not rewarded for their efforts. Xu Fu thought in his heart. In any case, it cannot be defeated.

Soon, Hirohiro arrived with his people. There were five young people, carrying all kinds of equipment, all of which were quite heavy. I didn't expect that to be a photographer, I had to have the strength to do it.

"You guys are so bad at parking here. We couldn't find a parking space for half a day, and then paid to stop at the back of the hotel. Hirohiro complained.

The photographer came on the front foot, and the two makeup artists also came on the back foot. They professionally asked about the characteristics of the characters, and then began to apply makeup to the two leading actors.

Li Faka and Huang Tingting don't need plastic makeup, they just need to shape the characters.

Huang Tingting's makeup went in the direction of a female ghost. Soon, she was pale, her lips were unusually red, and her black wig hung straight down to her waist.

If Li Faka wants to play a boy, he has to cover her long hair with a hood, and then put on a short wig. But this plan tried several times, but it didn't work. So she simply went out to cut her long hair short, and it became a medium-long hair like Zhou Yumin's version of Hua Ze.

When she made it, her whole temperament suddenly changed greatly. Now she is not only a beautiful little boy, but a fantastic prince charming. The eyes of the two female makeup artists were straight, and Huang Tingting was also in a daze. The best friend who played so well actually became a handsome guy......

Do you want to drag it to a high school reunion? Huang Tingting thought to herself, just say it's her new boyfriend! Guaranteed to make a bunch of girls vomit blood with jealousy......

Huang Tingting suddenly pounced on Li Haika's bangs: "Why are you so handsome!" ”

Li Haircard changed her hairstyle and actually gave birth to a new personality, she was originally very arrogant, but at this time she was desperately protecting her forehead and shouted in a low voice: "Don't make my bangs!" Even my dad never touched my bangs! ”

Huang Tingting unintentionally discovered a weakness of Li Faka and was very interested. The more she doesn't let it, the more Huang Tingting just wants to get it.

But after a while, Qu Jingmo dragged the two of them and pressed them on the chair and handed them over to the makeup artist to make up.

Qu Jingmo is in charge of the overall planning. She is responsible for the furnishings in Li Fake's house, how to move and where to move. What is removed now will be returned to its place when it is finished. Li Faka's parents kindly let out the house, but don't make a mess, as if they were thieves.

She instructed the younger brother brought by Guanghong to move things, with clear speech, clear thinking, and orderly arrangement. It's quite imposing.

That momentum, combined with her appearance, can attract some men. Guanghong's apprentice found a reason to come over and quietly add a WeChat or something.

Xu Fu saw it immediately. Although he believed in Qu Jingmo enough, he still put down the things in his hand, went up and said, "Work hard, don't soak my girl!" ”

Hearing this, Qu Jingmo immediately slapped Xu Fu, very lightly, but did not refute. After a moment's pause, she couldn't help but feel emotional, and covered her mouth with her hands to hide the smile on her face.

The little brother brought by Guanghong, seeing that Qu Jingmo was not playing, actually took the time to find Huang Tingting again.

It's a pity that he only said the word "beauty", and Li Faka shouted: "Alas, that mushroom is from my family." Don't fool yourself up! ”

Huang Tingting listened and subconsciously pursed her mouth. Her appearance is really not bad, in the past four years, I don't know how many boys have talked to her, including some excellent boys, but they were all driven away by Li Faka. This time too! Li Faka is getting in the way again!

……

The two actors put on makeup. Guanghong also set up all kinds of photographic equipment, and everyone was already in place. Official recording is about to begin.

"To get started?" Guanghong asked Xu Fu.

Xu Fu looked at the scene and always felt that something was missing. If you think about it carefully, it should be the people who hold the microphone to pick up the pole. He asked Guanghong, "We don't have a radio, are you okay?" ”

Guanghong didn't expect Xu Fu to be so unprofessional, and he didn't even prepare for this matter. He thought about it, found a clothes pole, and then asked for Xu Fu's mobile phone, and tied it to the pole with a rope: "Record it like this." The sound quality will not be high, and you will have to tune it yourself when you do post-production. ”

That's all there is to it.

After more than half a month of hard work, the four of Xu Fu are just for now! Xu Fu said loudly: "Start shooting!" ”

Qu Jingmo took the initiative to take the "recording rod" and held it. So that Xu Fu can stare at the screen and look at the camera.

Although he is a "director", Xu Fu can't mention any shortcomings. The quality of Guanghong's filming and the performances of the two leading actors is much beyond Xu Fu's imagination. It's just that he always feels a lingering sense of cheapness.

"Cheapness" is metaphysical, purely sensory stuff that cannot be quantified. Only by using real money to smash equipment, team, and post-stage can it be changed. In post-production, it's not just the editing and special effects that matter, but also the color grading. If Xu Fu's movie can bring out the color of "The Grandmaster", it will be absolutely divine.

It's a pity that when to say something. Xu Fu is now powerless to improve the so-called "sense of cheapness". You can only make up for your weaknesses with other strengths.

He suddenly noticed a problem and shouted, "Just now, do it again!" Huang Tingting, don't blush when you look at Li's card! According to the script, your character can't see her! ”
