Chapter 53: MV (4)
By noon, half of the micro-film had been filmed, and the rest could be completed in the afternoon. Everyone went to lunch first, and then started after resting.
Chen Feng, Ning Lin and a few staff members sat at a table to eat, and everyone chatted while eating.
"Hey, I didn't expect your acting skills to be so good." Ning Lin said with a little sigh. This Chen Feng is too genius, not only can he make movies, but also can sing, and he can also write screenplays, and now that acting is so good, how can God put so many advantages on one person.
"Hehe, it's not like this, in fact, at the beginning, I really felt very nervous, there were several cameras followed every day, and I was worried about doing anything, for fear of making mistakes and losing face. But then I remembered what I often told the actors, don't be too deliberate, just do what you normally do, you have to edit anyway, don't worry about anything, so I slowly relaxed and gradually adapted to shooting. Chen Feng remembered the trembling appearance during the morning shooting, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
"But that's pretty good." Ning Lin said with a smile.
"Indeed, it's the first time I've seen a newcomer, without any training, and the first time I acted, I had such superb acting skills, which is not something that can be achieved by learning, this is completely talented." The assistant director also said with a sigh.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the shooting of micro-movies first. At the current rate, it is estimated that it will take a week to make a complete micro-film. Chen Feng changed the topic and said.
"Well, one film a day, I can't finish filming in a week." The assistant director also shook his head, expressing helplessness. If you just shoot a normal MV, it only takes five or six days, but now you shoot a micro movie, which is a little slower than shooting a MV.
"However, if the audience will like it, even if it is filmed for a month, it is worth it." Chen Feng said with a smile.
"That's right, if the audience doesn't like it, no matter how fast you shoot, no matter how much you shoot, it's useless." The assistant director also smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Hey, can you two not discuss work during dinner, aren't you tired?" Ning Lin said dissatisfiedly, facing a big beauty, but these two people have been talking about work, no wonder Ning Lin feels dissatisfied.
Afternoon shooting began. The main scene is that the boy has been fighting for ten years, and when he returns to his hometown, it will be Qingming again. This situation, this scene, is no different from that year, but the difference is that when I go back, I am faced with a cold tomb. Someone told him that in the third year of his departure, the woman became ill due to lovesickness, and left with infinite remembrance and unwillingness. The man walked the path to his wife's grave and said in a low voice, "Do you remember our agreement?" Say okay wait for me, why did you leave alone? Why did you leave me alone on earth? I don't want to, and I don't want that! The next day, passers-by saw a body next to the grave and a letter. The letter wrote: Maybe it was all in the past, but in my memory, it can no longer be erased. I remember that Chang'an, who was parting from the wait, was so beautiful and brilliant under the light of the seven stars. It seems to be frozen in yesterday, but so close, why are you so far away from me? I have fought the world all my life, only for you to fight the world, but what is the ending of the world? said that we will always be together, but why are you and I separated at the ends of the world? I don't want to, and I don't want to, wait for me. I'm coming.
The first shot of the afternoon is a man standing alone in front of the window at night, looking at the bright moon in the sky, thinking of his lover in the distance. There is no dialogue in this scene, only action and expression plays. Chen Feng has the help of the 'Entertainment Superstar System', which is easy to complete, so this shot is over and over again.
The scenes in the afternoon were all the scenes of the male protagonist, so Ning Lin stayed aside and watched Chen Feng acting alone in the emotional scene.
Chen Feng was in a very good state in the afternoon, although there were a few small mistakes, but he could quickly adjust it if he calmed down, Chen Feng thought to himself that it was just acting, how could he stump his brother. Chen Feng, who was in a good state, quickly resumed filming, and everything went smoothly, even the facial expressions of the crying scene were in place.
"OK done! Everybody calls it a day. With the order of the assistant director, the shooting of this micro-film was finally completed, and the rest of the post-editing work has nothing to do with everyone.
"Everyone's worked hard!" "Everyone's worked hard!" Chen Feng thanked the staff around him, which is also a necessary quality for directors. Later, when it was announced that the company would invite everyone to dinner, it won a lot of cheers, and it seemed that everyone still preferred something practical.
However, Chen Feng and Ning Lin drove away, busy with almost a day of shooting, very hard, they needed to go back early to rest, and the scene here was handed over to the assistant director.
The filming process of the micro-film is unexpectedly fast, although Chen Feng requires a high-quality route, but because of Chen Feng's high-quality acting skills, many shots have passed over and over again, and the shooting of the micro-film shows a kind of beauty as much as possible, and the stories in the micro-film are mostly related to the lyrics, so most of the remaining time is spent on building scenes, rather than Chen Feng and Ning Lin's acting.
Every time he records a successful micro-film of a song, Chen Feng reports the progress on **, letting fans know that they are working hard to shoot here, which also alleviates the boredom of those who are waiting, and also promotes the next new album.
The last micro-film is the filming of "Fairy Tale", and the hero plays the piano to the heroine. The male protagonist of the micro-movie, that is, Chen Feng, who is sitting in front of the piano and talking about the piano, has a simple face.
At the beginning of filming, this micro-film is very simple, that is, let the actor sit in front of the piano and play the piano, but as soon as the filming started, he encountered a difficulty, that is, "Fairy Tale" needs a high level of piano accompaniment, as long as people who know music listen to it, they will know the rhythm of playing the piano, but the accompanying trainees have not been able to find the syllables of the melody of "Fairy Tale", and often appear a little stiff when playing in close-ups.
"Cut, hey, what are you doing here? Playing cotton? Don't know the melody of the song? Have you seen the score before shooting? The assistant director's temper immediately erupted.
"I'm sorry, Director." The trainee kept apologizing with his head down.
"Forget it, let me do it." Ning Lin walked up and volunteered.
"You." Chen Feng looked at Ning Lin in surprise.
"What, can't you? I'll tell you, I've been learning piano since I was a kid. Ning Lin raised her little fist and said proudly.
"Okay, let's get started." Said the assistant director.
Ning Lin deserves to have started learning piano since she was a child, although she is not the top, but at least she has a level of 8, and she passed it smoothly this time.
“cut! Perfect! The assistant director clapped his hands excitedly! This is the most perfect set of films he has made since he directed so many MVs, and now he can't wait to know what the finished MV after post-production will look like in the form of a micro-film!
At this point, the seven-day micro-film shooting is over.
"The micro-films of the album have all been filmed, and they will be released after post-production." The assistant director said to Chen Feng.
"Thank you, you took the crew to have a meal tonight, and the expenses are all recorded in the company's account, everyone has worked hard these days."
"Thank you, Director Chen!"
"Are you tired?" Chen Feng asked when he saw Ning Lin change her clothes and come out.
"Sort of."
"Let's go back, your mission is complete, rest today."
"Oh!"
