Chapter 246: Screenwriter Study Meeting
The Fukuyama Tsukijiu team began the preliminary preparations for the new drama "Beautiful Life", and at the same time, the sixth episode of "Naoki Hanzawa" also began to be broadcast.
"See, the narrative rhythm of "Naoki Hanzawa" is very elegant, and the ten-episode drama is divided into two parts for narration, each part is only five episodes, which will not make the audience feel verbose, but also tell the story clearly, so that the audience's emotions can be satisfied."
Madosuke Kato said.
He was in a screening room at the moment, he was sitting on a wicker chair, holding a gentleman's cane in his hand, and a projector not far away was projecting images on a white screen, which was the content of the sixth episode of "Naoki Hanzawa".
After meeting Kei Fujiwara at the academy dinner, the first thing Ensuke Kato did when he returned was to bring in all the young screenwriters under the age of 30 from the production bureau and hold a study session.
Since the dinner party and Fujiwara Kei "master and apprentice" recognition, Kato Ensuke is very happy, he has been a visiting professor at major art universities, I didn't expect to inadvertently cultivate such a powerful talent, maybe he can inherit his mantle of broadcasting the king of the world, and even carry it forward, the pride in my heart is indescribable.
But since I can teach one Fujiwara Kei, maybe I can teach the second.
With this in mind, Masuke Kato called the young screenwriters together and analyzed Kei Fujiwara's works at the pixel level to learn from each other's creative ideas.
In the directing industry, there is a word called "pulling film", which is to watch a movie frame by frame like a see-saw, watch it one by one, analyze a movie in depth, record the content, scheduling, camera movement, scene, editing, performance, and camera position of each shot, and finally learn and summarize.
In the screenwriting industry, similar means can also be used to deeply analyze the writing techniques of screenwriters, extract the most core creative techniques in the work, learn it and apply it.
It can be seen as a pull tab in the field of writing.
Ensuke Kato organized this study meeting, and the screenwriters arrived on time one by one, and each of them took a small notebook in their hands to write down the key points.
lost to Kei Fujiwara in the ratings war before, which also made some screenwriters feel humiliated, but then they developed a sense of hatred for the enemy. The study party hosted by Makato Kato, the former king of the broadcasting world, naturally wanted to participate, and they now had a unified goal in mind, that is, they must overthrow the brutal rule of Keina Fujiwara.
That being said, no one wants to meet him head-on at the same time. The animal is now in the prime of its creation, so it's better to hide a little.
So now almost all producers are shaking their heads like a rattle when they hear the word "moon nine", and they are desperately trying to escape this time period. So much so that the spring season is coming to an end, and the next season's successor program has not yet landed.
It seems that I can only find another team of newcomers and make a small production to barely top it...... The director sighed in his heart.
However, to the relief of the directors, screenwriters and producers, Kei Fujiwara is only dancing his teeth and claws on the ninth day of the month, and their survival situation is not too bad for the time being.
Madosuke Kato sat down at the podium, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then continued, "Although only six episodes of 'Naoki Hanzawa' have been broadcast so far, I have watched all of them and found that there are many things worth learning from."
….
"For example, the rhythm of the narrative. This drama has a total of ten episodes, but the stories of the first five episodes and the last five episodes are independent of each other. Telling a story every five episodes is very suitable for the weekly broadcast mode of Japanese dramas, which will not make the audience feel lengthy or rushed, and can keep the audience feeling unfinished and continue watching."
"In addition, the main line and the secondary line are staggered, which presents richer content to the audience. Let's take the first five episodes as an example, which are also divided into main and secondary lines."
"The content of the main line is very clear, that is, Naoki Hanzawa finds the invisible assets of the merchant and recovers 500 million. The secondary line is the temporary retrenchment and the IRS inspection in response to the head office, and the story is very exciting, whether it is the main line or the secondary line."
"And the way these stories are created has a certain model, for example, Naoki Hanzawa stole important information from the data room one step ahead of the arrival of the IRS, and he was looking for it in the data room
When looking for information, the IRS prosecutor had already walked to the door, and in this tense atmosphere, the audience's hearts were also suspended. The moment the prosecutor walked into the data room, Naoki Hanzawa successfully found the information."
"And the same similar plot, the sixth episode of "Naoki Hanzawa" also appeared, but the audience will not get bored, which shows that this is a very useful model that can create tension and mobilize the emotions of the audience. Don't be embarrassed, just copy it." Madosuke Kato said frankly.
The screenwriters below didn't say a word, they all sat with their heads down and took notes.
"The career line of "Naoki Hanzawa" is divided into a main line and a secondary line, but at the same time, there is a family line in addition to the career line."
"TV dramas often show some family routines and interactions between Hanzawa Naoki and his wife, and although Hanzawa's wife has also given Hanzawa some help in his career at some times, most of the plots about his wife are outside the main plot."
"So when I first started watching TV, I felt that this kind of plot about depicting families was unnecessary. But then I changed my mind...... Kei Fujiwara's kind of unborn genius, no matter how you write it, there is a high probability that he has his own reason."
"I also asked my wife and daughter for their opinions, that is, even if the stories happening in the bank are wonderful, it is easy to get tired after watching them for a long time. Especially at the beginning, Banze was facing huge pressure to recover 500 million, and faced the tripartite opponents of his boss, the IRS, and the businessman, and the audience also felt nervous and stressed."
"At such a time, it is also good to properly tell some warm family life, which can rest the audience's nervous brain, and even many people prefer to watch the interaction between Hanzawa and his wife."
"And it is precisely because Yoko Matsuo plays the role of Mrs. Hanzawa that her popularity has reached a new height, which proves that most viewers are not disgusted with these impatience."
"In addition, this drama is also remarkable in terms of presenting ideas......
Ensuke Kato spoke for more than two hours in one breath, almost breaking the script of "Naoki Hanzawa" and telling it to other screenwriters, if Kei Fujiwara was on the scene, it is estimated that he would be dumbfounded.
After finishing speaking, Madosuke Kato took a sip of water and said, "That's all for today, starting next week, everyone will read every work with Fujiwara Kei in detail, and after reading it, remember to write an analysis of creative techniques and hand it in."
After finishing speaking, he stood up again: "Fujiwara-kun is only half of my disciple, and he can still have such an achievement, many of you are even brought out by me, but now there is still no one who has come up with particularly eye-catching works, since the talent is not as good as others, this is also a matter of no choice, so it is better to redouble your efforts, as long as you spend enough effort, you may not be able to climb to a high place."
