The actors of "The Marriage Proposal" have joined the group.

Although the in-studio shooting was set at the Bayshore Studio, there were a lot of locations to shoot in the show from the first episode.

For example, the exterior of the church part was filmed in a location that is often used as a church location in TV dramas, in this drama, except for the first episode, the other ten episodes of the church scenes are basically limited to the post-wedding meal, and that part of the shooting is naturally used in the interior set built by the Bayshore Studio, and the rest of the church part is all filmed on location.

And the first scene of this drama is Zhou Xiao's.

Melodious music sounded, the window was pushed open, the wind blew in, and Zhou Xiao's voice sounded: "Everyone has the key to open the door of miracles in their hands, but there are very few people who can perceive this key. ”

Zhou Xiao's figure with his hands behind his back appeared on the balcony of the church, and outside the church, a bright light came up, highlighting Zhou Xiao's figure.

……

Zhou Xiao's voice continued: "Change your destiny ......"

"No! Still don't talk about it! Zhou Xiao suddenly stopped his monologue, instantly played, turned around and ran to the cameraman to look at the shot he had just shot.

Zhou Xiao wants to be the goblin in the film, which was booked before, but unlike other TV series that Zhou Xiao has filmed, this drama, from the first shot, Zhou Xiao found that he was filming himself...... It's not the same as before!

For example, in the scene just now, in the original work, Hiroshi Mikami, who played the goblin, walked to the balcony and looked up, and the background sound was the lines he had in mind, and now it has been replaced by Zhou Xiao playing the goblin, and the treatment of the roles of the two people is different.

Zhou Xiao's age is much younger than Mikami Hiroshi, and when dealing with the role of a goblin, Mikami Hiroshi takes a mature and steady route, and occasionally has a bit of a funny route, while Zhou Xiao. After studying the script, I feel that if I play it myself, it would be more appropriate to take the pure funny route of youth and vitality.

So, in the filming of the first scene of the TV series, there was a situation where the thoughts were not stated in the background voice, but read out by Zhou Xiao.

It's just that...... After taking two steps and reading the lines twice, Zhou Xiao felt that it didn't seem to be appropriate, so he changed to not reading the lines and walking again, and then changed back to the version of continuing to read the lines......

In short, although it was only the first shot of the first scene. But Zhou Xiao went back and forth seven or eight times before deciding to settle down, which is enough to prove that he attaches great importance to this play.

Finally...... When Zhou Xiao finished the process again, he ran to the photographer to look at it several times.

"Good! That's it, this one is over! He shouted.

Hearing Zhou Xiao say this, the staff at the scene didn't react much, but when Zhou Xiao left with people to go to the next shot location, many people began to pack up their equipment, cameras, and lights. Even the fans were quickly put away, and according to the predetermined process, they went to the next scene to be used.

And Zhou Xiao asked the people around him while walking: "Are the heroine's makeup and costumes ready?" ”

"It's ready, just waiting for you to come over." The staff member on Zhou Xiao's side said. The filming time of Zhou Xiao's first scene was a little longer, but in fact, Masami Nagasawa had already prepared it.

"What about Morimoto and Miyazaki-san?" Zhou Xiao asked. The people he asked were Hajiyuki Morimoto and Miko Miyazaki, both of whom are old drama bones, and in this drama they play the heroine Yoshida Rei, who is also the parents of Masami Nagasawa.

"It's ready, too."

"Didn't let them see Nagasawa, did you?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"Of course. This is what you have specially commanded! ”

Saying these things, Zhou Xiao had already walked outside one of the rooms in the church under the guidance of the staff, and here. He also met Morimoto and Miyazaki, whom he had just asked.

After saying hello to the two, Zhou Xiao said, "I'll go first and take a look, wait a little longer, don't peek." ”

Zhou Xiao's words drew a low laugh from the rest of the crew.

Standing in front of the door, Zhou Xiao let out a sigh of relief, and even tidied up the clothes in front of him, and then gently pushed the door open.

In the room, the blue and white striped sofa, the pink curtains, and the white porcelain tea set on the coffee table all show an elegant style, and in front of the dresser, a white figure sits there quietly, the wedding dress flows down from the chair, and the white veil on the head hazes the woman's black hair......

Frankly...... As a female artist, there are very few people who have not taken pictures without a wedding dress, whether before or after the crossing, Zhou Xiao has actually seen many photos of female artists wearing wedding dresses and even real female artists wearing wedding photos, but this time, I really saw this woman, this is called Yoshida Rei, also called Masami Nagasawa, her favorite TV series heroine is sitting there in a wedding dress, Zhou Xiao's heartbeat still missed half a beat.

Walked in gently, and Masami Nagasawa in the chair also heard the voice and turned her head slightly.

"Puff ......" After seeing Zhou Xiao, Chang Ze laughed softly.

"Uh...... What's wrong? Zhou Xiao wondered why Chang Ze laughed.

"The director's outfit is so cute!" Nagasawa said.

Zhou Xiao looked down at himself, what he was wearing now was a dark dress, between a trench coat and a suit, and a top hat on his head, prince? Groom? Now he looks like a butler at most.

"I'm a goblin, and it's not like I'm getting married." Zhou Xiao said a little shyly.

"And what about me?" Nagasawa asked.

"En......" Zhou Xiao walked to the dresser, looked at the beautiful bride reflected in the mirror and said, "Today, you are the most beautiful person in the world." ”

"Really? I'm so happy, I really want to get married now......" Nagasawa said as he looked at his wedding dress.

"......" Hearing this, Zhou Xiao had no choice but to be silent, although he had cooperated with Chang Ze several times and had a very good relationship, but he was not yet able to jokingly ask: "With me?" Cheng dù.

"Now that you're ready, it's time to start shooting?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"Okay—" Masami Nagasawa said in a long voice.

Zhou Xiao turned around and went out to let the photographer in to choose a position, and he himself began to talk to Li's parents.

Here, Zhou Xiao actually revised the script a little.

Originally, this part, Nana Eikura, followed by the parents in the room of the ceremony when the parents practiced the father's wedding ceremony with the ceremony and handed over the daughter to the groom, and then the ceremony put on the clothes and gloves, and stood up with the bouquet, and her parents looked at their daughter with a surprised face. But in his previous life, when he was watching the film, Zhou Xiao was thinking, when he wore a wedding dress, since his parents were already in the room, how could they not have seen their daughter's appearance, and their surprise could not be said to be nothing, but the appearance was a bit exaggerated, right?

So when arranging this scene by himself, Zhou Xiao put the small plot of the parents' surprise when they saw their daughter's wedding dress and makeup at the forefront, and then arranged the shots around this scene, in Zhou Xiao's opinion, this can be considered reasonable.

There are a few small modifications like this one all over the place. Of course, the scenes that should have been interspersed in the film such as the male protagonist at home and running a marathon on the road need to be refilmed another day, and what was filmed in the church today is just the exterior of the church.

did not appear on the camera but became a director, Zhou Xiao's cousin Xiàn was a lot easier, and after successfully filming this scene, the crew moved to the church lobby again for the filming of the official wedding ceremony.

Here, including Tomohisa Yamashita. Naoto Fujiki and other main actors are also in place, not only these people, Zhou Xiao even found an acquaintance among the extras.

China, the only woman who later became popular in SDN48, is now 21 years old. On some encyclopedia websites, it is said that she made a cameo appearance in the fourth episode of the show, but in fact, the first episode of the show appeared in Qinna, and there was a frontal shot in the post-wedding dining session. Of course, she also participated in the filming of the church, but unfortunately, the camera did not sweep her.

Zhou Xiao didn't take any special care of Qin's table. Now that Qin Na is 21 years old, it is impossible to join the AKB or something, and as for the SDN that was established later, the so-called SDN that accommodates adult AKB? Zhou Xiao has little interest in this combination that is destined to lose money.

SDN is purely a money-losing product, which is recognized by AKS operations in later generations, and the establishment of this group was originally to accommodate AKB members over 20 years old, but when it was actually implemented, those over 20 years old were not popular, and those who were not popular passed, and the whole team eventually became a garbage dump for low-popularity members, and it is understandable that the popularity of the entire team has declined. And because it lost too much money, SDN was inevitably disbanded in the end, even if the girls were very reluctant and even broke out to sign a joint signature.

Filming in a church is no different from a wedding on the whole, at most there are more cameras, and when shooting close-ups, there are more cases of the lighted person squatting under the actors.

The filming inside the church lobby is followed by the shooting outside the church, and after all the filming is over, today's shooting is over, and as for the most important scene in the dining room, the actor's first crossing scene, in fact, has to wait for the other exterior shooting, and it is carried out in the studio.

Why? In fact, it's very simple, in the restaurant, Tomohisa Yamashita will see the regretful group photo after the baseball game, and now that group photo has not been taken, with the help of some lenses, the scene in the church restaurant is not impossible to shoot, but in this case, you must build a set in the church dining room and almost every episode has to be built once, so it is equivalent to renting a restaurant for a period of time every week, which is too wasteful, it is better to go directly to the studio, and it is more convenient to maintain a restaurant set during the shooting.

After the day's shooting, the crew moved to the baseball stadium the next day for location filming at the stadium.

Filming exterior scenes in the stadium, as an extras for the audience, these jobs don't need Zhou Xiao to care about anymore, and when Zhou Xiao arrives, there are already thousands of people sitting in the suitable places in the stadium, AZX is now wealthy, coupled with Zhou Xiao's attention to this drama, the budget is not capped, it is originally a film with a high investment, and it is even more expensive to spend money in this kind of money-burning scene, of course, it will look better after the effect comes out.

In addition to the big scenes, it is also very interesting to pay attention to many small places in this play, for example, when the actor went out to cheer up his friends, he made the other party's body lean back, this action called "backward sliding" was actually made in 2006, that is, at the beginning of this year, at the Winter Olympics Shizuka Arakawa made it and became popular, Yamashita Tomohisa traveled back to the other party to do it, of course the other party would not know what he was doing, and the fun thing is that if Zhou Xiao's drama was filmed a year in advance, This meme can't be used either. Because Shizuka Arakawa hasn't made a relationship yet.

Zhou Xiao himself doesn't know much about the rules of baseball, but few other people present don't understand baseball, so the whole shooting process is also normal, Zhou Xiao is very satisfied with the shooting process, until the end of the game, the actor was eliminated because he was out, the players ran to the court to salute, and the big scene of today's shooting was completely completed.

It's just that after the last shot was completed, the photographer at the top of the stadium came down from above, and Zhou Xiao found a problem after looking at the lens above the stadium. In Zhou Xiao's mind, in the shot above the stadium stands after the end of this game, there were white clouds floating in the sky, and the blue one was dazzling, but look at the sky in this video, although it is still very good, but it does not have that touching sense of blue.

"Well...... If this shot is fixed, is it okay to recreate the sky above the stadium with CG technology? Zhou Xiao asked the staff around him.

"No problem, it's just the sky. With CG technology, basically no one will see through it. The technician replied.

"Then it's decided, this scene is over!" Zhou Xiao clapped his hands and said.

The ball game is over, and the extras are dismissed, but today's filming is not over. There are still a lot of scenes to continue filming.

Then there is the scene in the dressing room, the scene in the stands, and finally the scene of group photos......

Shooting started early in the morning to match the time and the sunny weather. It didn't end until the sun sank in the west, and everyone worked hard enough in the past day.

“cut！ It's over! Today's shooting is over, thank you all! "When the last photo shoot is over. Zhou Xiao shouted with a sigh of relief.

"Good work!" "Good work!" All kinds of politeness and thanks instantly resounded throughout the shooting location.

"Under the mountain, and Changze, do you want to have dinner at night?" Because it is a court scene, there are not many middle-aged and elderly people, and most of the entire filming scene are young people, and Zhou Xiao has no shelf, so he casually invites the actors to have a meal or something.

"Okay!" Including the two of them, the other actors also nodded one after another, as for the other staff members will not go, the so-called dinner party after filming is actually used for the actors to learn from each other and communicate with each other, unless it is a stage that is completely over, otherwise it is impossible for other staff members to eat with the crew director and actors unless it is particularly important.

Zhou Xiao took Chang Ze and others to the restaurant to eat, and after a meal, no one opened up to continue the stall, now is the time for the TV series to shoot, early tomorrow morning, they will get up early to put on makeup and start filming, and almost all the people present have been educated by the relaxed generation, and there is no middle-aged people's habit of pulling the juniors to the stall at night.

As for the cost of the dinner, it is still paid by Zhou Xiao as usual, in fact, among the people present, Zhou Xiao is not the best backup, although Tomohisa Yamashita only officially debuted in 2004, he has been in the entertainment industry for a long time, and Hamada Yue, who plays the little man Tsurumi Shang in the film, also debuted earlier than Zhou Xiao, but as an investor and a director and screenwriter, Zhou Xiao feels normal for others to pay money, in fact, let alone with the crew, even if he goes out with his peers or artists who debuted a year or two a year or two earlier than himself, Zhou Xiao is also the one who pays for it, that is, he goes out with those who are really an era higher than Zhou Xiao, such as Tamura Jun, Kobayashi Kendo and others, Zhou Xiao will let his predecessors pay with peace of mind.

Even so, these seniors will still complain when they pay, everyone knows that Zhou Xiao's real strength is the company's management and not his own artist, compared with the boss of this entertainment and Internet company that has begun to gradually show its grandeur, his group of small artists may not earn more than a fraction of the others. But when he went out with these people, Zhou Xiao was still an artist and not a boss, so these people had to pinch their noses and invite this person who was worth much more than them to dinner.

After another two or three days, the crew finally arrived at the Bayshore studio for the most important part of the first episode, about the scenes in the restaurant, including the beginning and end of the show.

In this part of the department in the restaurant, Zhou Xiao, who had been playing cool most of the time before, was also going to officially appear and start two rival scenes with Tomohisa Yamashita.

Zhou Xiao's acting skills are like his ability to cook, ordinary and plain, and he won't be too happy to read if he doesn't have any surprises, and when making the script, because he made the role for himself, just like the first shot, he also made some changes to this part of the lines according to his own image, so that the goblin image has become a lot younger overall, and he finally barely finished the whole play.

And what was a little special about this day was that in the studio, in addition to the crew members, another group of girls also came here.

They are the members of the AKB.

These girls, who have chosen the actor route among the AKB members, came to the set to watch the filming this time under the guidance of their acting teachers. (To be continued......)
