The Notre Dame High School welcomed the crew to the filming, and several directors agreed that the film could bring great publicity to the school. The school charged the crew a symbolic fee of 1 Chinese yuan for the use of the venue. And most in return, Chen Feng promised to use the original name of Notre Dame Middle School wherever the name of the school is mentioned in the film.

In this win-win cooperation, the two sides hit it off, and this incident also gave him a new understanding of the director's career positioning, and most of the budgets that directors get from the producer cannot support him to realize all his ideas.

The director's personal ability determines how much investment he can get, but there are only a few demons like James Cameron in Hollywood in his previous life. In order to get the maximum benefit with limited investment, the director must seriously consider how to allocate the resources in hand, whether to find big-name movie stars to support the scene, or choose money-burning special effects to ensure quality, these are all problems that make directors have a headache......

Compared with those blockbusters that cost hundreds of millions of dollars at every turn, the filming cost of "Youth Musical" is insignificant, Li Haitao just regarded this movie as a song and dance drama with novel concepts and strange ideas, even Li Haitao did not expect how dazzling the film would be in the end.

"The first time you face the camera, you need to try to relax yourself!" Because he has a good impression of this singer, and he is not as high as he imagined, but makes people feel close, the stylist named Ah K kindly reminded him.

"I look nervous right now?" Mu Wanqiu was accidentally broken by others, and she was a little embarrassed, this was the first time she had been the heroine of a movie, even Mu Wanqiu, who had been in the town for a lot of time, was inevitably a little nervous, especially Chen Feng was sitting next to him at this time, and another stylist was helping him take care of his hair.

Fortunately, Chen Feng's attention at this time was attracted by the fashion magazine in his hand and did not hear the conversation between the two.

"Your mouth is a little unnatural, and your eyes are wandering, these are all signs of inner tension!" Ah K explained with a smile.

"All the stylists on the crew are as observant as you?" If it was said that Mu Wanqiu still had a trace of contempt in her heart before. So Ah K's performance has made her completely put away this mentality, a simple stylist can have such a keen observation. It seems that the guy Chen Feng found is not simple.

Hearing the praise in Mu Wanqiu's words, Ah K felt that the nationally renowned singer in front of him was indeed very interesting, which gave him the idea of getting to know the other party further. "A good stylist focuses not only on the outside, but also on the inside. A smile from the heart. Far more glamorous than applying a gaudy lip gloss to your lips. If the actors can maintain a good and suitable attitude, our work will become relatively easier and simpler! ”

Mu Wanqiu heard that the other party was secretly mentioning that she needed to maintain a natural and peaceful state of mind in the performance, she nodded knowingly, it seems that as long as she has the attitude of returning everything to zero, everyone around her has something worth learning from herself.

"What are you talking about?" The conversation between the two finally caught Chen Feng's attention. He put down the magazine in his hand and looked over curiously.

"We're talking about how to relieve tension!" Mu Wanqiu replied in front of Ah K.

"Wanqiu, are you nervous?" Thinking of his performance when he was on camera for the first time, Chen Feng's face naturally showed a look of concern.

"A little bit just now, it's much better now!" Mu Wanqiu pouted and smiled, after chatting with Ah K for a few words, she was indeed not as nervous as she was just now. …,

"Don't worry, the first time I faced the camera, I was so nervous that I forgot my lines. You're definitely going to be a lot better than me! Chen Feng smiled easily and added words of encouragement. Immediately, Mu Wanqiu regained a lot of confidence.

Hanggang Notre Dame Middle School has just started school for less than a week, and the weather here is still hot.

It was a sunny morning, and the bell had already rang at Notre Dame Middle School, and classes were going on as usual in the classroom. But today, many students are visibly absent-minded, sitting by the window looking out at the school lawn. From time to time, the classmates next to each other exchanged heads.

The male teacher who was teaching couldn't help but shake his head secretly when he saw the students like this. He walked to the window and glanced outside, and said, "Hehe, it's very lively outside, does anyone want to go down and have a look?" The students in the classroom immediately coaxed and raised their hands in unison.

The male teacher laughed, walked back to the podium, and said, "Don't dream, you little slippery heads, give me a good lesson." ”

"Oh, I knew it!" The students expressed their disappointment.

The male teacher shrugged his shoulders, picked up the chalk and continued to write the formula on the blackboard, complaining a little in his heart, why did the principal approve the filming of "Youth Musical" here, didn't he know that it would cause a lot of trouble to the school? For visibility? Come on, will this movie be a success? The devil knows!

The school building area of Notre Dame Middle School is a "concave" architectural pattern, with buildings on three sides, and an open road and lawn in the middle.

At this time, these lawn clearings are full of youth-clad teenagers, chatting in twos and threes, waiting for the start of filming.

They are all extras in "Youth Singing and Dancing", and the crew contacted a brokerage company that specializes in providing extras, and then got a reply and hired these students from Hangzhou-Hong Kong Art Institute, which can be regarded as Chen Feng's help for the younger students.

These people will play the role of ordinary students on campus, fulfilling the "crowd" needs of all the scenes in the movie.

And now, "Youth Musical" is about to officially start filming the first set of shots.

The New Year's holiday is over, and the school is reopening, this set of shots is to shoot the male protagonist "Chu Feng" walking down from the school bus, and then being surrounded by good friends, teammates and beautiful cheerleaders into the school.

The first shot of this group of shots is a frontal shot of Eastern High School, where the students are happily talking or walking into the school, a sunny scene.

In the later stage, this shot is also ready to be accompanied by light and enthusiastic music, so that the youthful atmosphere of the high school campus will come out.

On the way to the school gate, the photographic equipment has been placed, the staff of the photography team is carrying out the final debugging, Xu Tianliang is talking with the gaffer Shi, determining the lighting and exposure, and some people who want to be motivated are listening carefully with their ears pricked up on the side, these people have completed the task of laying the guide rail, so they have time to follow Xu Tianliang's ass and learn the skills and experience of photography.

The crew members all perform their duties, and those who have finished their work temporarily rest on the side, standing away from the camera lens; Xue'er, Mu Wanqiu and other leading actors also stood together and chatted, Ah Feng sat on the grass and read the script silently, Wells twisted his body and practiced his dance steps, and Wang Yang, he was talking to the actors who appeared next about his requirements.

"When it's time to shoot, you're skateboarding, just like you did when you were in the play, jumping on this railing."

Chen Feng patted the iron railing next to him, looked at the several skateboarders specially invited, and said, "I need a perfect jumping move." ”

The skateboarders nodded, and one of them laughed, "Don't worry, it's too easy for us." ”…,

Chen Feng patted him on the shoulder with a smile, walked to the extras who would be close to the camera, and said to the young men and women: "You are all smiling, high-five, hugging, like you haven't seen you for a long time, understand?" ”“OK。”

Several young men responded.

At this time, the field supervisor came over and said, "Director, the extras are all in place, and the school bus is ready." ”

Chen Feng nodded to him and walked back to the camera, Xu Tianliang had already finished communicating with the lighting engineer, also checked the camera, and said to Chen Feng: "There is no problem." ”

It's all ready.

Chen Feng looked at the main school building in front of him, in order to shoot this scene, the clock on the main building was temporarily out of order, he took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Xu Tianliang who was standing behind the camera, and said, "Then, it's time to start." ”

Xu Tianliang smiled at him and said encouragingly, "OK." ”

Seeing that Xu Tianliang was ready, Chen Feng's gaze moved to Xue Mingshan again, and Xue Mingshan nodded with the camera.

Chen Feng nodded, and the first shot of "Youth Singing and Dancing" officially started. In the original TV movie, this shot only froze the front of the teaching building, and then switched to the next picture, the shooting range is very small, the camera only moves from the ground to the vertical level, and there is no shadow at all in the teaching buildings on both sides of Notre Dame High School, that is because the TV screen is small, and it is not beautiful if the picture is far away; But the big screen is different, if it is only fixed on the front of the teaching building, it will be gone, which will bring a very depressing viewing feeling, so the shot shot now has been redesigned, and after a frontal medium shot, the lens will quickly rewind to the back, turning the middle scene into a long shot.

In order to capture this effect, the camera rails were laid far away from the side of the road.

The shooting plan has long been discussed with Xu Tianliang.

Xu Tianliang held the camera's control azimuth handle, waiting for the director's order; Chen Feng looked around again, everyone was looking at him, extras, colleagues from the crew, and good friends......

Clenching his fists, Chen Feng shouted loudly: "Start shooting!" "The reporter took the clapperboard and shouted the serial number and sequence of the shot in front of the camera, which was to facilitate the editing work in post-production.

After the scene note was finished, he knocked down the field clipboard, and Chen Feng shouted again: "ACTION!" With his voice, the extras suddenly moved around and entered the state of performance.
