Chapter 742: Director Pu Tong's work
"You wrote this?"
After Pu Luo finished reading his son's script, he didn't believe it.
It's not that he doesn't believe that his son can write such a good work, the main thing is that this script is not Pu Tong's previous style at all.
From the perspective of the crew, his script of "Never Expected" is very innovative, and if it is made into an online short drama, the market will definitely be very good.
is only in the first episode, and he can see that the distinctive role of the protagonist of this drama, Wang Dazhui, is his comprehensive portrayal.
The word "Dick Silk" is not a criticism of it, it is precisely because of this characteristic that the image of Wang Da Hammer can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
is an absurd and laughing dick, coupled with the fact that the scenes where the story takes place are not lacking in the reproduction of the real life experience of the public, and then caters to the tastes of mainstream young audience user groups, it is difficult for this drama to become popular.
After reading his son's script, Pu Luo somewhat understood the reason why he was so "cost-saving".
The style of this drama is absurd and dick, and the production level is sloppy, so that it can resonate with everyone more and have a sense of substitution.
Although the main line is to interpret the decadent life of "Dick Silk", the characters and postures portrayed are the unyielding grassroots spirit, which is the core of this story!
This kind of grassroots spirit conveyed through character interpretation, with the challenge of grassroots culture to elite culture, fits the current atmosphere of the times and the characteristics of the network, and can definitely inspire and attract users and gain attention.
I have to say that my son is really a genius!
Pu Luo used to think that Pu Tong would only write the kind of orthodox and tall scripts, but now that he looks at it, he can write down-to-earth and even some vulgar things......
Not only can he write, but he can also sublimate by stuffing something with a core into something cliché.
"I think of the sunset run that afternoon, the lost youth of my life."
The words that suddenly appeared in the funny plot are extremely literary, which makes people laugh at the same time, but they can't help but feel a little emotional.
This creativity is terrifying!
What's even more terrifying is that in "Never Expected", not only is it funny, Pu Tong also stuffs a lot of his own ideas into it.
In terms of the overall script structure, this episode deconstructs, reconstructs, reinterprets and reinterprets the popular elements that netizens are familiar with, and shows them to the audience, which covers a wide range of popular Internet languages, historical allusions, famous classics, popular film and television works, entertainment circles, online games, and popular jokes......
At first glance, this drama is simply a collection of memes.
But it is precisely because the style of this drama is nonsensical enough that these various stalks are very suitable for integration, and they will not dominate.
Popular, open, rebellious, reversed, subversive, spoofed, irrational, mixed, crazy, absurd...... Pu Tong has written too many things, giving full play to the spirit of Internet entertainment to death, and the comedic effect can also be seen.
Why didn't he see that his son actually had such a strong talent for nonsensical comedy.
"How do you feel, how is the writing?"
Pu Tong scratched his head, his father had been reading the script for most of the day, but he didn't say a word, it was the first time he wrote this kind of subject, and he couldn't help but be a little nervous.
"Great!"
It's not that he has a parental filter, but he feels from the bottom of his heart that Putong's script is excellent and interesting.
The moment nonsensical was born in the market, it was destined to its unique grassroots culture.
The deconstruction of the classics and the subversion of the tradition constitute the basic attributes of nonsensical. The banter of interjecting and playing a serious thing seems very out of place, but it always shows a deeper side in the end.
In film and television works, when nonsense appears, it has a certain impact on the traditional performance form, but it is easy to mingle with the audience in a unique down-to-earth way.
This is the charm of nonsense, there is no strict didactic meaning, subverting dogmatism, anti-tradition and anti-rules, and the form of breaking through oneself has won the love of most audiences.
Listening to his father's explanation, Pu Tong couldn't help but think of a nonsensical comedy master......
Speaking of nonsense, Stephen Chow is a person who can't get around, but his current ability is not mature, so he naturally doesn't dare to shoot Xingye's works, and this matter has to be considered in the long run.
"I've found that you're quite a bit of a sarcasm."
Pu Luo patted his son on the shoulder.
In terms of narrative techniques, while laying out the plot in this script, it is also using the protagonist "Wang Da Hammer" to complain and ridicule his own encounters to ridicule and satirize reality, which not only shows the cuteness and down-to-earth image of the protagonist, but also arouses the audience's empathy.
To be honest, he couldn't figure it out, how did he stuff so many things into this short drama in just a few minutes?
Could it be that he really is a genius.
"Come on, I'll contact the filming team for you, start filming early, the work cycle shouldn't be too long......"
Pu Tong nodded, the reason why he chose "Never Expected" was because the preparation cycle of the short drama was very short and it could start filming at any time.
When the first episode is filmed, he can start the script of the second episode, and when the first episode is broadcast, the second episode can start filming, and so on.
"I Never Expected" can be popular, which has a lot to do with his closer updates every Monday.
It is updated once a week, and for this kind of humorous sitcom, it is most appropriate to update it once a week. One is that there is not much plot connection between each episode, and the other is that this is a channel for the public to transfer the suppressed emotions in the Internet context. The audience watched it with a relaxed and entertaining mentality.
The audience watched it with a relaxed and entertaining mentality. When the pressure of a week's work is deposited, I will wait for the moment when "Never Expected" will be broadcast.
If the time interval is too short, the audience will not be able to form hunger, and if the interval is too long, the audience will not wait to find other ways to solve it.
The short duration of a single episode is five or six minutes, which is the best time for impetuous Internet users to quickly shift their attention in a fragmented time to maintain their attention in an Internet context.
Dad is now starting to contact the team, plus casting or something, they will be able to start filming next weekend, and a five-minute episode will definitely be more than enough to be filmed in two days.
After filming, they spent another week editing the soundtrack, and by the time the first episode aired, they had already filmed the second episode, and they would take over the baton next week.
Pu Tong couldn't help but be a little happy, is their company's first film and television work finally coming out?
And he is not only the boss, but also the screenwriter, but also the director of this short drama, when he thinks of the words "director Pu Tong's works" appearing at the beginning of the film, he can't help it.
Pu Tong has watched the original version of this drama, and he is very proficient in how actors should act, and no one knows this drama better than him!
Who does he direct?
I can't bear it anymore, enlighten!
