Chapter 6 Commencement of Construction (4/8)
Chen Xi has been in the group for a month and has a general understanding of what the crew is.
It's not the same as when she was an actor before, when she was an actor, she felt that the crew was really powerful, and she loved to ignore newcomers like her...
This time I did it behind the scenes, and I felt...
Everyone is a worker, you give money, I work, except for the big bowl, it's the same for everyone, I don't have a good face...
The pressure on the crew was very high.
The time problem makes everyone very nervous, a scene starts shooting at noon, and often the crew has to go to the venue at five or six o'clock in the morning to start preparation, and 80% of the filming work in a day is preparation.
It is impossible to be democratic and free in a high-intensity working environment!
In the early stage, the general direction has been decided, and then each group is subdivided and discussed, and when it comes to the filming stage, all the people on the set are running after the plan.
Under this premise, if everyone has their own opinion, then don't think about finishing the shoot at the specified time.
As for the high and low?
There are too, but very few ...
On the whole, the production team, the director team, the actor team, the photography and lighting group, the recording team, the costume group, the makeup team, the props team, etc., are all independent small teams, with a clear division of labor, everyone works together, and there is no conflict of interest...
As for the production crew's business...
It's complicated, for example, Lu Chuan filmed "Nanjing! Nanking! once openly questioned: Why 8000 for a lamp? 8,000 to buy a lamp is enough to install a street!
But if you don't buy it, the investor won't pass the budget.
Can't I save money for investors?
No, otherwise how can investors make money?
Do you think the money was really invested by investors?
In addition, film and television dramas are not easy to have "fair" pricing, neither by the number of episodes, nor by the length of time, let alone by the pound, so the price is easy to be manipulated when purchasing, and the operation space provides corrupt soil...
Let's not talk about this.
After Chen Xi finished chatting about this, he turned around and left, Shen Xudong didn't keep her, he didn't have to talk about art with Teacher Wang today - how can he talk every day, he doesn't need to rest, Teacher Wang also needs to rest!
……
In the director's room, Feng Baiyuan was chatting with his assistant, and the topic was about Shen Xudong.
“… Our screenwriter is amazing. ”
"Oh? How so? ”
"The number one in the world has sold millions, and it is available in bookstores in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia!"
“… Talented? ”
"Hmm... must be a genius, and he has done several programs, "Phoenix Screening Room" and the now popular "Three Kingdoms"..."
Feng Baiyuan was surprised: ""Three Kingdoms" was also made by him? ”
"Yes... His new book "Zhu Xian" is being serialized... Word of mouth..."
Hearing the title of the book, Feng Baiyuan was slightly stunned: "What? ”
"Zhu Xian"... Created Xianxia..."
The assistant's name is Mai Guanzhi, in fact, he is not an assistant, he is a deputy, Mai Guanzhi was also a director of TVB before, and was poached by Li Guoli to make a drama, Tang Ren, who joined last year, has no work for the time being, so let him learn from Feng Baiyuan.
Count the director of Group C...
In addition to being a director, he was also hired by the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts to teach directing.
"Wait a minute, Xianxia... Then do you think he knows "Fairy Sword"? ”
"Fairy Sword... Should know, I'm going to ask tomorrow? ”
"Hmm."
Feng Baiyuan nodded...
"Fairy Sword" is Tang Ren's key project, and there is only a game version at present, and Li Guoli is the main promoter of this project, and there is no clue at present.
Feng Baiyuan was also quite interested.
In the original time and space, he is one of the directors of "Fairy Sword", and by the way, he is also the producer!
……
The next day, after breakfast, the director team held a creative meeting, which was actually a division of labor...
Then, let's get started!
At noon, the sun is a little dazzling, this is a Ming and Qing style street, to be exact, a Ming and Qing style market, restaurants, cloth villages, groceries, mules and horses, and all kinds of small vendors scattered around.
"The First in the World" happened in the Ming Dynasty!
There are dozens of group performances in the gambling house, it was messy, the camera looked around for a week, and then pushed to Deng Chao and Huang Bo next to him...
One of them is right and wrong, and the other is his partner Zhang Laosan...
Shen Xudong immediately saw the efficiency of Hong Kong directors - this plot is to be betrayed by Zhang Laosan...
The plot is like this, Zhang Laosan lost all the money and left it as collateral. Zhang Laosan disappeared without a trace, Cheng Shifei was escorted away by the carriage, and it took a long time to be released, and he was found to be in the palace, and the person who received him was a smiling eunuch.
Such a long section, half an hour to shoot...
Cheng Xiaodong in Group B filmed Cao Zhengchun's three major blockers and the black-clothed arrow team chasing and killing Yang Yuxuan's children, attracting the three secret agents of Tiandixuan...
It stands to reason that such a fight scene will take three or five days to shoot, and it will be done in two days...
Chen Hao's lounge.
Shen Xudong then picked up an apple and took a bite: "Have you washed it?" ”
Chen Hao was speechless: "... Washed or not, have you eaten it, and why are you still asking this? ”
"Then wash it... I'm relieved..."
Shen Xudong found a place to sit down: "Why didn't you see Mr. Wu coming?" ”
"He's in Japan... I will join the group next month..."
"Oh..."
A one-month blank period...
Tsk, is this looking down on Chen Hao's charm, or looking down on Shen Xudong's guts?
"Sister Chen Hao has filmed martial arts before?"
"If you don't have anything to say, shut up!"
“… Oh..."
Shen Xudong was embarrassed, stepping on a horse, "Dragon Babu" is martial arts!
"However, Feng Baiyuan and they are filming so fast!" Shen Xudong sighed with a sentence of efficiency, Chen Hao popularized science: "This is quite slow, TVB is filming and broadcasting... They've long been honed out! ”
"TVB is filming and broadcasting? I don't think so..."
"TVB started filming three or four dramas at the same time, except for some long-form dramas, most of them were rebroadcast after filming..."
Mai Guanzhi knocked on the door, walked in, and popularized science...
But his Mandarin is really hot!
“… Mai Dao..."
"Screenwriter Shen, Chen Hao..."
After greeting each other, Shen Xudong looked at him, and then asked, "The director called me?" ”
“… yes, it seems to be about the shooting..."
"What's the use of looking me for shooting questions? I'm not a director..."
muttered, Shen Xudong still followed Mai Guanzhi to the director's lounge...
Sister Chen Hao's lounge is warm and full of fragrance, the director's lounge is full of men, even if it smells smoky, the key is the smell of feet, mixed together...
Nauseating!
Hurriedly lit a cigarette, put it in his mouth, took a puff, and then walked in, and saw Feng Baiyuan who was discussing with several other directors, and when he was free, Shen Xudong asked, "Director, what's wrong?" ”
"Mr. Chen Daoming has not yet joined the group, we will shoot the plot of returning to the sea tomorrow..."
"You can just discuss this with the production team, you don't need to inform me!"
“… Do you know "The Legend of Sword and Fairy"? ”
