Chapter 53: [Audition]
According to Zhang Xueming's meaning, Lu Zhengyi opened the email and replied to the heads of several platforms with emails to understand the situation.
Then he didn't pay attention to the mailbox.
Lu Zhengyi also understands things like waiting for the price and selling and watching the dishes.
He sent this 'consultation fee', mainly to follow the topic and talk about it again to see if he could get any additional news.
After all, compared with herself as a director, Zhang Xueming is backed by a light and shadow company, and her main business is to connect with various platforms, and in terms of news channels, she must be wider than herself.
By fully understanding the competition of these video platforms, he can maximize his revenue.
But for now, Zhang Xueming doesn't seem to have any useful information.
As for what 'after-sales' is said, Lu Zhengyi didn't particularly care.
For Zhang Xueming, he still trusts him.
After all, they are now working together for the second time, and they are considered their own people.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhengyi's action of turning off the computer paused again.
Then, he continued to type on the computer, "The book of "Spell" is almost ready at present. ”
"The filming location is set in Taicheng, and the props, costumes and venues have been communicated one after another, and if the actors are concerned, we will prepare for the audition tomorrow."
"I estimate that the machine will be started on time next month, and when the time comes, are you interested in attending?"
After all, the other party is an investor, and Zhang Xueming contacted him today, and he also reported the progress of the work.
Regarding this, there was no such thing when filming "The Old Corpse of the Mountain Village".
Director Liu, who was in charge of the "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" project, may have not interfered in the affairs of the crew because of personal habits. Or rather, he didn't feel that he could make a good movie at all, and all in all, he didn't ask the crew to report on the progress or anything like that.
However, Lu Zhengyi did not default to all the persons in charge of Light and Shadow Media because of the previous situation.
Therefore, he still mentioned it to Zhang Xueming, the person in charge of the signing project.
The filming location of "Incantation", after he discussed it with Zhang Yu, was finally set in Taicheng.
The folk atmosphere here is very good, and it is very suitable for continuing shooting.
In order to shorten the filming cycle, after Lu Zhengyi applied for the record at the Tang Film and Television Headquarters, he arranged for the work of multiple channels to be carried out at the same time.
He and Zhang Yu are in charge of the actor's audition.
Others, on the other hand, are currently preparing for the props, equipment, and personnel needed to shoot.
If it goes well, after the record license comes down, the entire crew can be officially started immediately.
Compared with "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" at that time, Lu Zhengyi did it himself little by little and prepared for more than half a year.
This time, he has assistant director Zhang Yu, Ajie from the props team, Wei Kang from photography, Xiaowei from the makeup team, and Bai Wei from the scene reporter......
There are also Chang Zhengwei and Zhang Yuming, two actors who were directly decided.
It can be said that when the script is taken out, most of the crew is gathered.
And compared to Lu Zhengyi, who was completely like a novice Xiaobai when he first filmed, this time, he has a lot more experience.
On the message box, Zhang Xueming waited for a while before replying to a few messages, "It depends on the situation, I don't necessarily have time." ”
"I've been competing with the "Oblique Moon" project recently, and it's quite competitive."
"Anyway, I don't understand this aspect of filming, you just let it go, it's ...... Don't be too big on funding. ”
It's all said and done, and there's a high probability that it won't be there.
Lu Zhengyi's heart was very clear, anyway, he just mentioned it casually.
The two didn't say anything more, and after saying to each other to rest early, the scrolling of the message box stopped.
……
"There are a lot of auditions today, mainly in terms of the heroine and Xiao Letong, and there are a few supporting roles that I have to look for."
After temporarily asking for a spacious room with the hotel, cleaning up briefly, setting up a fixed camera position, and arranging a photographer to follow the shooting, Lu Zhengyi and the two of them began to wait for the outside actors to enter.
As for Chang Zhengwei and Zhang Yuming, they did not participate.
As actors, they also have a lot of things that they should prepare for the next shooting.
"Two directors."
Soon, a very sweet-looking, long-haired, fashionably dressed, looking very young and beautiful woman walked into the house, "My name is Yu Wenxiu, I am three years old Chinese New Year's Eve today, and I graduated from ......."
Yu Wenxiu walked into the house and gave a brief introduction.
The main content is the school where he graduated and the several web dramas and a TV series he has participated in, but they are all small supporting roles, and basically there is no position.
Lu Zhengyi exchanged glances with Zhang Yu.
Then, he replied, "Teacher Yu, I want to ask first, how do you understand this role?" ”
In terms of tone, it is more polite.
Although the scene in front of me is a bit like a talent show, the situation is completely different.
The news of their crew's preparations did not spread.
The people who can come here to audition are all internal actors, or people they know, or some people recommended by school teachers, which can be regarded as screened.
is not young, and he also has a certain amount of experience and acting skills, but his reputation is relatively average.
This last point was specifically requested by Lu Zhengyi.
He just wants to find some actors who are not well-known to work with, such people are easy to handle.
If you invite an actor who is famous, temperamental, and difficult to get along with, he is really afraid of beating people up in the crew.
"I think this character is very selfish."
"I prefer to use the word "woman" to define her as a mother rather than a mother."
"After all, she and her so-called boyfriend can engage in such dangerous activities during pregnancy......"
Yu Wenxiu talked eloquently, and only relied on the brief script given by their crew, and did a very serious study.
At the same time, her words are also vaguely expressing why she appears in such a dress today.
Rather than saying, as required in the plot, a mother's figure.
Yu Wenxiu believes that a youthful and beautiful, playful, selfish and even somewhat lost figure is more suitable for this heroine.
Lu Zhengyi listened to the news silently, and after she stopped narrating, she pondered Li Ruonan in her heart.
What he needs now is not just relying on the plot and pictures he saw in his previous life to corroborate.
It's about trying out the directing skills I've learned during this time.
Just like "The Old Corpse of the Mountain Village", the content that is applicable to one's previous life, if you copy it in this life, it may not be applicable because of the environment and time.
Therefore, Lu Zhengyi needs to shoot his own content, and he needs to make the movie that only exists in his mind more suitable for this Tang Kingdom, which is very similar to his previous life.
"So...... Teacher Yu, please play this part of the plot. ”
After a brief silence, Lu Zhengyi handed a script to Yu Wenxiu, "We won't talk about drama, you can roughly rely on your knowledge and ability to interpret Li Ruonan in this clip." ”
