Chapter 135: Shooting Plan
Director Liu's efficiency is very fast, and the next day he brought the contract to Yu Ze to sign, the contract has been read by Li Shangzi in advance with a lawyer, and it is confirmed, mainly because of some copyright and revenue sharing issues, in addition, the most important thing is the entire documentary, Yu Ze has the right to delete, that is, first of all, during the filming of the documentary, its content can only be left after Yu Ze's permission, and finally the edited film will be sent to the relevant departments for review.
This is equivalent to Yu Ze having considerable autonomy over his own documentary, which is also normal, but whenever a personal documentary is filmed by a living celebrity, the condition that the celebrity agrees to naturally have editing power, otherwise can you let the director shoot indiscriminately?
After signing the contract, if you want to enter the official shooting, you still need a lot of preparation, half a month if it is fast, a few months if it is slow, and it is common to prepare for half a year, or even a few years.
Originally, Director Liu was just a niche director, and if he wanted to shoot a documentary, he had to find ways to attract investment, and the time to prepare for filming was more than ten times longer than the time for filming, but this time, after he got Yu Ze's verbal promise on the same day, several well-informed investors immediately approached him to prepare to invest in the documentary.
It is an exaggeration that these investors do not have any excessive requirements, neither asking for revenue sharing nor product placement, which is simply a donation of love.
No, it's not that there are no ads, just ask for the name of their investor on the end credits thank you list.
This advertising request, Director Liu readily agreed.
Therefore, he skipped the most troublesome financial requirements, signed the contract in the morning, and brought people in the afternoon, which made Yu Ze a little confused.
"Director Liu, you're moving fast enough."
Yu Ze was surprised.
"Don't worry, Mr. Yu, the people who came have all been checked by Officer Liao's identity, and they are efficient."
Liu Huijun smiled, and there were six or seven people standing behind him, which was not much.
When he made a rural documentary, there were only three people, and he was not only a director, a cameraman, but also a logistics staff......
"We need to shoot some opening ...... for you in advance"
Liu Huijun asked people to prepare, pulled Yu Ze to introduce him to the steps of the meeting, and made Yu Ze impressed with him, although this guy is just a niche documentary director, but his talent is really amazing, he was only allowed yesterday, he signed the contract this morning, and brought the team in the afternoon, what is even more terrifying is that Director Liu already has the general shooting structure of the entire documentary in his heart.
A character documentary should have two levels, one is the overall structure, that is, the overall layout of the documentary, how to start the documentary, what content is arranged in the middle, what the content is about, what is said after, and in what order it is arranged and ended. The second is the paragraph structure, as the name suggests, it is the structure of each paragraph of a documentary, in each paragraph, how to edit the picture, which shot to edit first and then which shot, how to make the picture smooth, how to edit the picture to express the theme, etc.
If you change to a director, I am afraid that if you think about it for a month or two, it may not be appropriate, but this Director Liu not only came up with the "script" at this time, but also "exaggeratedly" told his general arrangement, not to mention whether he can shoot a high-quality documentary, just this production speed is also impressive.
is like an author, who wrote more than 100,000 words overnight, even if the content is all in Xiaobaiwen, it is necessary to admire the speed of this codeword, which can be called a robot.
So much so that Yu Ze gave birth to the illusion that this guy would also hang up?
"Director Liu, it's a pity that you don't make movies with this ability."
Yu Ze couldn't help but say.
"Haha, documentaries are very different from movies...... How to say, I have little interest in movies, and my favorite hobby in my life is documentaries, and I won't hide that my favorite program when I was a child was to watch "Animal World" on time in front of the TV every day. ”
Everyone has their own ambitions, but how many people in the world can make their hobbies their jobs?
Although Liu Huijun is not a famous director, he can achieve his current achievements, at least he can be regarded as a successful person without worrying about food and drink.
"But Mr. Yu, the shooting of character documentaries is not like a movie, it can be filmed in a few months if it is fast, and it is ...... if it is slow."
In fact, this is mainly because Yu Ze is too special, like ordinary famous people, when filming their documentaries, they are often famous for a long time, leaving a lot of texts, pictures, and video materials, which can truly reproduce the important life fragments of celebrities.
But how long has Yu Ze been famous?
It's only a little over a month.
There is a lot of discussion about him on the Internet, but there are too few words and video materials he left behind, to put it bluntly, there is very little understanding of his past experience on the Internet, and Yu Ze does not like to communicate on social networking platforms, and does not accept interviews with reporters, the whole person is shrouded in a mysterious fog.
Liu Huijun firmly believes that Yu Ze will definitely be a legendary historical figure in the future, so he wants to shoot Yu Ze's character documentary in every possible way, but that is also in the future, and the current information required is too small, so there is only one way, rely on time!
Yu Ze was not surprised, and smiled slightly: "Director Liu, how long are you going to shoot?" ”
"Mr. Yu, do you know the documentary "Lu Yao"?"
Liu Huijun asked.
"Well, I don't know."
"The documentary "Lu Yao" was launched in 08, filmed in May 10, and premiered on Phoenix Satellite TV in November...... It reproduces the experience of writer Lu Yao's life in a real-life way, and is divided into eight episodes: "Shocking", "Gu Yu", "Mangzhong", "Summer Solstice", "Great Heat", "Frost", "Big Cold" and "Lichun" to cover his entire life! ”
Liu Huijun's eyes flashed with a flame called ambition, "Mr. Yu, please allow me to be arrogant, I may not be able to photograph your life's experience, but I want to photograph your thirty years of life." ”
"Thirty years of life?"
Yu Ze couldn't help but be shocked by Liu Huijun's ambitions.
"Yes, I would like to make your character documentary with ten years as an issue, divided into three seasons, each season covering your life experience and achievements in the past ten years...... I think your appearance will definitely have a great change in human history, and tracking your life experience is also tracking the changed human history. ”
Liu Huijun said slowly.
For the first time, Yu Ze admired a person around him, what kind of ambition is this?
How long does a person live?
There are people who are willing to spend 30 years to complete a job and a dream.
If Liu Huijun can really realize his plan, then he will also leave a strong mark in the history of the documentary.
