Chapter 143: A Producer's Day (Part I)
The four-eyed boy is Zhu Yilong.
Zhu Yilong's popularity is very in line with the law of actors - the role is on fire with the actor himself!
Xiaobai admires him very much, of course, he has terminated the contract with the original sand sculpture company and set up a personal studio, otherwise, Xiaobai would not have let him shoot "Often Invite Dinner", "Jiupin Sesame Official", and this time "Kung Fu"...
His current partner is called Liu Chan, who was the agent of Pony Penteng and has a good relationship with Zhong Lifang!
Although Four-Eyed is not the main character, he is an impressive character.
The camera focused on Bai Xiaofei and the fat dragon sitting next to him.
"Four-Eyed, I know you!"
Zhu Yilong smiled very gently and pushed the frame: "It seems that this gentleman has a deep prejudice against people who wear glasses!" ”
"That's right, especially the gold-rimmed glasses. Swish... Hmm..."
As he spoke, Xiaobai played a snake fist...
Zhu Yilong stood up directly, slapped him in the face, slammed his head on the chair hard, and said very aggrievedly while smashing: "As a clerk, it is normal and logical for me to wear gold wire glasses. I look good wearing it, why are you targeting me? ”
Xiaobai spoke to the fat dragon next to him in pain: "Help... Help! ”
The fat dragon immediately changed his face: "Well, uh... Woof! ”
Zhu Yilong grabbed the head of the other person with his free left hand, and smashed it on the chair again...
"Help, huh? Ruffian, huh? Dragon-form, huh? Tiger shape, huh..."
"Click!"
Huang Liang smiled comfortably and took his head off the monitor with satisfaction.
“… You're so ruthless, my neck! ”
Xiaobai couldn't help but complain, and Feilong also muttered: "It's a bit excessive!" ”
"I'm sorry, I..."
Zhu Yilong hurriedly apologized.
"It's okay, you're trying hard, we don't have to do it again..."
Xiaobai smiled and comforted, and secretly twisted his neck...
……
At present, in China, most films are director-core production, and there are also a small number of producers or producers.
Filmmakers are more about controlling costs and coordinating resources as a whole.
The producer only controls the director's creation and content at a macro level, and rarely directly intervenes.
In fact, there are many filmmakers whose work is limited to the budget before the start of filming, the accounting and distribution after filming, and the producer is not even on the scene when the actual shooting is actually filmed!
Very normal.
The director is the main creator of a movie, and the division of labor such as screenwriter, actor, cinematographer, and editor are all at the service of his creation!
For screenwriters, the director should review the feasibility and coherence of the plot written by the screenwriter, transform it into a narrative composition form with a sense of picture, and then judge whether the lines written by the screenwriter meet the needs of the characters and plots, and most directors will personally modify the specific lines on the set!
This is not quite in line with Xiaobai, his movies are basically written by himself, and there are few temporary changes to the lines.
In terms of photography, the director provides specific requirements such as storyboard composition, scene requirements, lens length, etc., and then the director of photography and handheld camera will take charge of the whole scene or the whole shot required by the director.
Most directors only direct and don't shoot, especially directors who cross the line...
Professional photography should be done by professional photographers!
For actors, the director has to tell the play, explain what kind of emotion, eyes, expressions, and tone the actor will use to perform in a scene or shot to be performed next, and most directors will put forward clear performance requirements or tell the actor about the real state of the character.
There are also directors who are actors, and when Jiang Wen is scored, he will not put forward a bunch of rules and regulations, but will leave more to the actor himself and let him play...
Back to the producers!
In fact, the original producer in Hong Kong's industrial system is very close to the concept of producer we are talking about now, that is to say, he must not only understand creation, preferably with creative experience, but also understand financial control, commercial operation, and most importantly, he should be the initial initiator of the start of a commercial project as a play!
In Hollywood, people who can work as producers generally have their own production companies or have certain fixed partnerships with the six major studios.
In the field of commercial production, that is, in blockbusters that are heroes based on box office, the power of a real bigwig-level producer is second only to the chairman of the studio, far more than the vast majority of directors and actors.
Of course, there are very few domestic producers with this quality!
Chen Guofu is one of the most professional!
At this stage, most producers are actually paying for them, and they are also called producers!
In fact, the biggest cancer in the industry is that producers do not obediently count money and wait for returns, but participate in specific projects.
Yang Lan held such a position in the crew of "Kung Fu"...
……
"Kung Fu" invested 400 million, the biggest investor is, of course, Horgos Kung Fu Pictures, with an investment of 200 million, accounting for 50% of the investment amount, Penguin Pictures invested 180 million, accounting for 45%, and the remaining 20 million, Zhong Lifang, Chen Baolian, Yang Lan claimed...
At the same time, Yang Lan will also participate in the operation of "Kung Fu" as a producer...
Of course, she is the auxiliary, and the real producer is Chang Bin, who is also the vice president of Penguin Pictures.
"Truman's World" is produced by him!
Producer generally refers to the producer of film and television dramas.
Responsible for script coordination, preliminary preparation, contract signing of film crew, cast and crew and filming equipment, filming cost accounting, and financial review; Perform shooting, production, and post-production; Assist investors in domestic and foreign issuance, domestic and foreign application and participation in awards, etc.
The young lady has just arrived, and she has to learn in many aspects, and she has also put her own mentality right, focusing on learning!
To be honest, Xiaobai makes movies the most worry-free, he rarely does things that exceed the budget, and the only time he thinks that the internal producer has to catch up with the schedule...
He prefers to shoot according to the plan, that is, according to the shooting schedule...
Xiaobai's team is mature enough, the scene reporter will coordinate the actors' schedules three days in advance, and the assistant director will also rehearse and move the actors in advance.
Therefore, it is embarrassing for the young lady to stay in the crew of "Kung Fu"...
Producers are more concerned about accounts and budgets, but Xiaobai is not the kind of director who loses his rationality once he enters the shooting state, he knows budget control very well.
What can be done with two million will definitely not cost an extra dollar!
is an executive director himself, and he knows everything about the crew, so since "Riding the Wind and Waves", many times the director and producer of his movies are himself!
The producer, it's the same for everyone else, it's just a puppet...
