Chapter 47: The Movie Begins
Lighting engineer and drama manager, both positions, require experience. It's not just a matter of recruiting some temporary workers from Beipiao, and you can do a good job.
However, the performance of the film studio has not been good in recent years, and many old employees have been unemployed at home for a long time.
Seeing Wang Qinian's crew recruiting, although the treatment is average, it is better to have an income than no income. Therefore, there are still a lot of film studio workers who came to sign up, and many of them were once technical backbones.
Wang Qinian interviewed a few and selected a lighting engineer named Zhao Laosan.
Because, Zhao Laosan has the usual equipment and equipment required by the gaffer at home, which are all his "eating guys", and he brings his own equipment, which on the one hand reflects his professionalism, and can also save money and effort for the crew.
Of course, because he brought his own "food guy", the salary for hiring him, including the rent of the equipment, was given a total of 5ooo yuan, and it took him two months to hire him, and after two months, he had to add money.
In addition, the drama is Lao Li, an acquaintance recommended by Zhao Laosan.
Drama affairs, the main job is to do chores and be responsible for logistics. Arranging the crew's food, clothing, housing and transportation is not high-tech, but it is also a talent who has clean hands and feet and quick work.
In this regard, Lao Li has repeatedly said that he is absolutely clean in his hands and feet, and he has rich experience and has followed more than ten crews.
After the recruitment ended, the crew was basically ready.
Wang Qinian took out his shooting plan and script, and sent them to everyone respectively, saying:
"Now that the crew has been established, we will start work tomorrow! Everyone should memorize the lines, and prepare the preparations. Tomorrow at 7 a.m., we will meet here! Everyone here, many of them are young people, entering the entertainment industry with dreams, who doesn't want to become famous, who doesn't want to become a superstar?
However, if any industry wants to succeed, it must pay!! How much effort can be put in, how much suffering can be endured, and how much success can be enjoyed!
The chance of success and fame, I can't pat my chest to guarantee, that's bragging!
However, I can guarantee that I am as willing as you are to make great efforts for the ideal, and if each of you is as willing to work hard as I am for the realization of the ideal, and can persevere, endure, and enjoy this process of struggle.
If, we are all such people!
Then, I am sure that we will succeed! ”
This beautiful speech inspired everyone to join the crew.
Several young people who want to be popular and want to become famous have felt their blood boiling.
Even if Hao Yi, Li Xie and Du Jie, a few of them have been mixed with Wang Qinian for a long time, who doesn't feel excited in their hearts?
……
The next day, early in the morning.
The crew of "The Gate of Destiny" has gathered at the gate of Beijing Film Studio.
After the number of people arrived, the drama manager Lao Li bought breakfast, porridge, steamed buns, steamed buns, fritters, and soy milk. Now the price is relatively cheap, just these breakfasts, a person with an open stomach to eat, the cost is less than five yuan. It's only fifty yuan in total, which has already fed everyone in the crew.
After breakfast, everyone in the crew was motivated, especially Gao Zhuang and Wang Xiaoqiang, the two low-level people who drifted north, and they were a little moved!
At half past eight, Wang Qinian, a new director with no experience, also started the first day of work, explaining to everyone the scenes to be shot today.
"For the first shot I shot today, I want the effect to be ordinary, capturing extraordinary details." Wang Qinian said, "Close-up shots and short shots are mainly used, and the pace of the lens should be fast. The market for each shot will not be very long, but it must be serious, the details must be enough to show the taste, everyone should act better, strive for higher efficiency, and waste less film! ”
"Okay, give the actors half an hour to rehearse, and when the rehearsal is almost the same, then use the camera lens!"
"The makeup artist started to put makeup on the actors. Zhang Jingjing, Li Jie, you go to the fitting room and change your clothes. Then, let Brother Zhang put on your makeup. ”
In the crew, Hao Yi, two people in the art group, has a good eye for the aesthetics of clothing. Hao Yi selected a lot of costumes and props sponsored by the company, and some of the costumes he chose were of good taste. In the lens, it is by no means out of class.
However, he can also give advice on styling, but his hands-on ability in makeup is not strong.
Therefore, to make up an actor, it mainly depends on makeup artist Zhang Renzhi.
Hao Yi's poor makeup skills are related to his normal sexual orientation - it is said that the vast majority of excellent stylists and makeup artists in the fashion industry and film and television industry are homosexual. Because, homosexuals are more sensitive to the ability to capture beauty and fashion than people with normal sexual orientation.
Thinking of this, Wang Qinian saw makeup artist Zhang Renzhi touching and pinching the actor, and he couldn't help but feel a lot in his heart, and almost laughed out loud.
……
"Alright, here we go! The first plot unit, the first scene, begins! Wang Qinian saw that everyone was almost ready, and said, "Everyone is in place, stand in the camera, camera, and light." ”
Wang Qinian's "Gate of Destiny" movie is divided into 5 plot units.
The first unit. The plot of the process of the protagonist crossing over time and obtaining the time machine.
The plot at the beginning is a bit ordinary, so Wang Qinian must make even the most prosaic shot, and the details must be evocative.
Also, more crucially, there can't be any pee spots for at least the first five minutes! (Pee spot, the plot is thunderous or very bland, and the audience uses this garbage time halfway to make it convenient to pee.) If it's a movie with no pee spots all the way, the audience will be patient until they finish watching it before peeing).
In the first scene, the protagonist Wang Dazhui (played by Li Jie) walked through the crowded road. passed by Yunxia, the heroine of Zhang Jingjing's performance, and the heroine suddenly paused and glanced back at the hero.
Then, the two of them disappeared into the vast sea of people.
At the beginning, in order to make the lens look distinctive, Wang Qinian asked the photographer and lighting, so that passers-by were deliberately diluted and blurred, and there could only be two male and female protagonists, which was very eye-catching.
In addition, Li Xie was dressed in a suit sponsored by Youngor, plus Zhang Renzhi's makeup and styling design effects. With the evaluation of the crew, handsome! It's like a different person!
Zhang Jingjing was originally only a middle-aged person, not a country and a city. But in the movie, because of the good costumes and makeup, it is a bit of a goddess in the shot.
In order to catch the moment when the heroine looks back, and in order to make the lens look evocative artistic conception, Wang Qinian asked Du Jie to shoot more than ten times in a row, just to capture the best moment detail that he thinks.
After filming this scene, Wang Qinian continued to arrange follow-up scenes. This is the beginning, and the previous scene is actually a technique of outlining the theme and flashbacks. Blurred time and space.
In the opening scene, the two pass by on the street. Is it a flashback, or a narrative. This is the moment when the protagonist travels through a certain world in the future, or before he travels through. Is this a dream, a memory, or an experience for the protagonist.
Wang Qinian himself doesn't know, anyway, it's just a matter of thinking anything, it's possible. No matter how you think about it, you can justify it without affecting the audience's interest in the plot of the follow-up movie.
Actually, there is no need to explain too much about this lens, this lens is mainly used to create an atmosphere and beauty - a bit like shooting mV!
After the shot of this scene, a roll of film was used, and more than 1ooo yuan was smashed out.
However, after Wang Qinian watched these materials, he was more satisfied, if the editing is better, and there is a Bgm atmosphere, this scene can be very intriguing.
When shooting, Wang Qinian was already thinking in his heart - what kind of Bgm should be used to set off the atmosphere in the later stage of this shot?
It is common for other directors to pay more attention to the lens, modeling, plot, performance, etc., and ignore the director of BGM.
But Wang Qinian knows that the importance of BGM is sometimes not inferior to the special effects of movies. Moreover, with the right BGM to set the mood, the cost is cheaper than the special effects.
The first one is over!
Then, Wang Qinian commanded everyone again, preparing to shoot the second game while the iron was hot......
