Chapter 140. Actors set the angle
As soon as she finished arguing with Liu Yifei about the money, before she could ask the purpose of her coming today, Xiaoting found Sun Yi and whispered:
"Brother Yi, Mr. Yang said that his side is finished, and it's time for you to preside."
Yang Fan, as a producer, except for some crew members, equipment, props, etc., other work can only be implemented after Sun Yi, the director, completes the overall shooting plan, so at this time, Sun Yi must take the lead first.
Sun Yi was in a dilemma, more than a dozen people upstairs were waiting for him, and he had to hurry over.
Here, the fairy sister Liu Yifei specially found her own studio, and she obviously looked like she was in trouble. Besides, he just received money from others, and it's not good to leave people here and wait, he himself doesn't know how long this will last.
Without waiting for Sun Yi to speak, Liu Yifei asked curiously.
"What kind of meeting are you having, I'll wait for you here with Xinxin for a while."
"I don't know how long the film project preparatory meeting will last."
"Movies? Are you going to act in a movie again, what role? ”
"Those Years" has just been released, and Sun Yi held a film preparatory meeting again, and the speed of this drama made the fairy sisters who are usually a little Buddhist very surprised.
"This time it's not acting, it's my movie, I'm the director, and I'm directing independently."
Hearing this, the expression on Liu Yifei's face became even more exciting, and her eyes widened.
When Sun Yi was the assistant director of the crew of "Those Years" before, she saw that Sun Yi had talent and ambition in this area, but she definitely didn't expect Sun Yi to execute it so quickly.
In shock, he blurted out directly and asked.
"What kind of movie?"
"It is a realistic theme, reflecting the struggle of the little people at the bottom in their fate."
Realistic themes, low-level little people, fate, struggles.
That's a tall sound.
At this time, Liu Yifei still cherished the ideal of becoming a great actor, far from being the actor who was hacked and brainwashed by chicken soup for the soul in later generations.
Hearing movies of this genre, Liu Yifei's yearning look on her face was overflowing.
Looking at Liu Yifei's curious baby's appearance, Sun Yi asked tentatively.
"Why don't you sit in and listen too?"
"Well, I'll attend your internal meeting."
If you say this, and you don't smile and show your teeth, I'll believe it.
Sun Yi looked at the fairy sister who was eager to try, and complained helplessly in his heart.
If this is someone else, Sun Yi can't agree to it, because this involves project secrets, but Sister Fairy, how can I say it.
If you count the crew of "The Condor Heroes", the two have cooperated twice, and Liu Yifei's character obviously can't do those dirty things. Besides, his script has been recorded, and there is the endorsement of China Film, so there will basically be no problems.
Therefore, in this matter, in case of Liu Yifei or something, she didn't have that heart.
It's time to take her to the sky.
"It's okay, let's go together, you should study the preparation of the movie, just like you from the perspective of an actor, put forward your opinions, the three stinkers are still Zhuge Liang, right."
"You're the stooge!"
"Okay, okay, I am, okay."
"That'll do."
Hey, I was reluctant to agree.
Come to the conference room on the second floor.
As soon as everyone in the room saw Liu Yifei, whether they knew each other before or not, their eyes were locked on her face.
"You don't need me to introduce it to you, my friend, Liu Yifei, come and learn today."
"Hello everyone, senior brother, senior sister."
"Good, good"
Liu Yifei greeted sweetly, causing a burst of exclamations.
Sun Yi was a little disdainful.
A bunch of people who have never seen the world.
Yang Fan's expression was a little playful, and his eyes kept sweeping back and forth on Liu Yifei and Sun Yi's bodies, wanting to find some clues.
After Liu Yifei sat down, Sun Yi walked to the front of the stage and said with a straight face:
"Manager Yang should have finished the preliminary preparations just now, and now I will talk about the specific shooting plan."
"First of all, 'Nobody' is a low-budget film, and it's all about small people, a group of people in a desperate situation who each struggle to the death against fate in order to prove their worth."
"Therefore, the overall shooting style of the whole film, I think, is to be down-to-earth, to return to reality, and to make the audience feel that this is the story that happens between us ordinary people."
"According to the script, the story takes place in a small city in the southwest, I have a preliminary understanding, at the junction of Sichuan and Guizhou, there is a small city called Duyun, I think it is very suitable, but after all, I haven't actually been there, so, Brother Liu, please take the camera crew, go to the scene in advance, and get some materials back."
"Don't worry, no problem."
This choice was chosen by Sun Yi according to the filming location of the original film in his previous life, and if nothing else, it can be decided directly, which can save a lot of time for scene selection.
"If the city is suitable, then next, the communication with the local government and relevant units will be handed over to China Film, this point, Brother Fan, please connect with the producer of China Film."
"Well, tomorrow I will negotiate a specific contract with China Film and implement it directly into the contract."
Sun Yi nodded in approval.
Seeing Sun Yi standing in front, heroic, and all plans and arrangements in an orderly manner, Liu Yifei's heart suddenly became hot.
She felt that Sun Yi was so powerful at the moment, and she was inexplicably a little admired.
"In terms of the selection of specific actors, I will talk about my views first, and then we will discuss it."
"First of all, the protagonist Ma Xianyong, this is the key character of the whole story, all the plots revolve around him, the background of the character is a middle-aged man, an ordinary security guard, he is sloppy and vulgar, but there is a spirit in his heart that does not bow to fate. This is a typical person whose ambition is not rewarded. ”
"This role is first of all age, experience, and acting skills must be of a high enough standard, and the two candidates I am currently planning are Zhang Guoli and Chen Jianbin."
chose Zhang Guoli, firstly, because the other party has the grace of knowing him in this life, and he can repay one or two no matter how he says. The second is that the other party is indeed suitable, both in terms of acting skills and the overall fit of the role is very high.
Zhang Guoli's acting path is very wide, he can play romantic characters such as presidents and emperors, and marginal roles such as beggars and farmers, and he is not inconsistent at all, except that he does have superb acting skills, and his life experience of an ordinary railway worker who started from scratch all the way to today is also closely related.
And Chen Jianbin is the impression that the original film brought to Sun Yi, and his acting is also good, which can be regarded as his true character, but at this stage, whether in terms of emotion or fame, he can only rank second choice, and the first choice is Zhang Guoli.
This two-person choice, everyone nodded one after another, and they agreed very much.
Sun Yi continued:
Next came a pair of robbers, Hu Guangsheng and Li Haigen. These are two very characteristic characters in the script. As a pair of fellow villagers who came out of the same mountain, they have different personalities, but they have a sincere friendship with each other. ”
"Hu Guangsheng, nicknamed glasses, is a character who is tough on the outside and humble on the inside, has no culture, no ability, but always wants to get ahead. As a robber, he just wants to prove himself and be looked up to. This is the dream he adheres to, even if this dream is shattered by fate, the only dignity in his heart is ruthlessly trampled on by life. ”
"Li Haigen, nicknamed Datou, a affectionate, righteous, innocent person, his dream only wants to start a family and live a stable life, but under the manipulation of fate, for love and friendship, he chose to become a robber."
"These two characters are representatives of the bottom, small people, and nobodies, but they also have dreams and dignity."
"So these two characters are very important. At present, I only think of Zhang Yi as a candidate, do you have any other recommendations? ”
Everyone present had read the script in advance and started talking about it at this moment.
Big-name stars can't make it, they are small-budget and small-scale productions, with limited funds, and the salaries of big-name stars are too high, so they can only choose from cheap actors with superb acting skills and not very well-known.
There was a lot of discussion, but there was no unanimous opinion.
Sun Yi was also thinking in his mind at the moment.
Zhang Yi is definitely going to use it, because he has signed a studio, and the fertilizer and water will not flow into the fields of outsiders.
The other, for a while, he really didn't think about it.
The preparation of this project will be a little sudden, and he originally imagined that he would start preparations after the Chinese New Year, so he did not arrange it in advance for the actors.
If it really doesn't work, just go to the audition and see.
"If you can't choose someone, then you can act!"
Well?
Sun Yi looked at Yang Fan, who made this suggestion, and the latter shrugged his shoulders and said, "Am I not right?" ".
Am I acting?
Sun Yi thought about it.
You can also ha.
is not bad at age, he asks himself if he can cope with his acting skills, and as a group movie, there are not too many single roles, which will not delay him as a director.
"Indeed, Xiaoyi, you are quite suitable."
"Uh-huh, yes."
"I'll see it."
Everyone in the studio agreed.
"Well, okay, I'll play one."
"Then let's move on, let's talk about the heroine."
Sorry for being late.
Ask for recommendations, ask for monthly passes, ask for subscriptions.
Thanks!
