Chapter 19 The Crew (2/5)
At this time, the actor Yang Qing mentioned was on the set of "33 Days of Love Break".
Although Yang Qing’s interview was a bit flattering, Lu Xiaoran really respected the director very much. Although he is the producer of "33 Days of Love Break", Director Su Lun is just a novice. During the filming, he still obeyed the director’s instructions.
The total investment of "33 Days of Love Break" is 6 million, which is a small cost in the true sense. Lu Xiaoran, Tangtang does not account for the salary, Lu Xiaoran takes 25% of the share, and Tangtang takes 12% of the share.
In a word, Su Lun actually wants to find Tong Yali to play Huang Xiaoxian...
...
"Are the groups ready? We'll start work!"
Hearing Su Lun's shouts, lighting, camera, art and other behind the scenes, all stood in place according to the process.
Lu Xiaoran and Tangtang sat in a pre-set position, walked aside, and the camera made marks based on the movement, which was also a reminder to the actors, so as not to act outside the camera.
"33 Days of Love Break" is not a movie with such a complex plot, as long as the characters are in good mood.
The lighting maker is on the stage.
In fact, the lighting of the film's light is a very complex proposition. It requires measuring the brightness and color temperature of the light. Only when these two items are accurate can the light be arranged according to the plot.
It takes at least 45 minutes to set up a panoramic light, and 15 minutes to set up a close-up shot!
Therefore, many movies save the light distribution process or use natural light directly to save time.
While the lighting maker is busy, other departments are not idle either. The recording assistant begins to install wireless microphones for actors with lines; the artists will cooperate with the handheld crew to clean up the venue, purchase, and organize according to the range seen by the camera lens. Of course, there are also people who are responsible for decorating the extras with human backgrounds to increase the sense of reality and atmosphere rendering.
There are few live radios in Chinese movies nowadays. After all, there are many crew members and the sound is very messy, so the dubbing in the later stages is more cost-effective.
However, "33 Days" was filmed and edited, so the sound must be closed on the spot, which also adds to the difficulty of the crew's creation.
In this scene, Huang Xiaoxian hit the table, and then Wang Xiaojian criticized her.
"Okay, let's start!"
The game was played, and Lu Xiaoran and Tangtang quickly entered the state.
"Are you okay, Huang Xiaoxian?"
"I'm very good, very good"
"If it's okay, don't touch the partition. When you touch me, you will tremble. The coffee is spilling!" After saying the lines, Lu Xiaoran rolled his eyes and retracted his body...
"Stop!"
Su Lun suddenly called for a stop.
Lu Xiaoran was a little confused. He felt that the performance just now was completely fine...
Tangtang asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, Tangtang, you will shrink your neck later and maintain your staring expression. I will give you a word. When the words are over, you will shrink back!"
Su Lun explained: "After all, our play is adapted. There are many interesting words in the original work that are not suitable for directly adapting into lines, but it is a pity to lose it directly, so we can fill it in it in the form of a narration."
"The camera just now is Wang Xiaojian's first appearance. Although the lines are very neat, the shock is too little. If we add a narration, the effect will be much better!"
You can edit it later...
Lu Xiaoran didn't say it in person, but complained in his heart...
Really a pure novices!
"Come on, all departments will do it again!"
...
In later generations, there were many discussions about the success of "33 Days of Love Break" and the most concluding conclusion was the classic lines!
For example, 'The little boys nowadays have a huge friendship, but they are no match for a little bit of breasts! This is a species that is bored with the new and tired of the old. Are you worthy of yourself when you are seeking death?'
There is also 'Go home to take a shower, have a good sleep, organize yourself well, and don't make a girl of the right age like a stock.'
We have a natural sensitivity to lines. As long as the lines are written well, it is easy to give praise to a good review. It is like a song. No matter how simple the melody is, the lyrics are well written, which is a good song. The most typical one is Luo Dayou, who has a broken gong voice, but the lyrics are very beautifully written "Childhood", "Love Song 1990", "The Story of Time"...
If we analyze it from the perspective of movies alone, "33 Days of Love Break" is really a very simple movie - full of dialogue shots.
Dialogue is the simplest way to express the movie. This kind of scene only requires two cameras to solve it. One is responsible for the panoramic view and the other is capturing close-ups of the actors.
Therefore, Lu Xiaoran was unwilling to shoot by himself - it was not challenging!
There are not many plots in the office. Zhang Jiayi, the actor who mainly plays Da Lao Wang, has not joined the group yet. He seems to be filming "You Are My Brother".
Zhang Jiayi was invited by Su Lun. After watching "The House of Snails", she was completely fascinated by Song Siming, played by Zhang Jiayi. She must have made him think she would play a role.
After reading the script, Zhang Jiayi was very satisfied. He didn't ask for a paycheck, so he just came here to play.
There are not many actors in "33 Days", and they are basically familiar friends. Lu Ran found Lu Fangsheng, Feng Jiaqi, and Jiao Erbao liked it very much. Wei Yiran sets up as an elite man with a mature style, and it is quite suitable to set up the peak.
In addition, the three pairs of actors who broke up at the beginning of the film found Mahua actors and several actors in "The Fruit Era" made guest appearances...
After all, Lu Xiaoran has been in the circle for a few years, and her connections are still a bit...
In addition to "The Big Man", Lu Xiaoran's current popularity has even surpassed the princess who is preparing to make a comeback.
"The Big Man" is still released, half a month after its release, and the box office has reached 420 million. "The King of Guns", "Tang Bohu's Autumn Fragrance 2", "Happy Travels" and "Driving Unmanned" that Wang Luodan cares about are crushed all the way...
In the rest area on the set, Su Lun looked at Lu Xiaoran, then looked at his phone, and shook his head: "I'm really afraid that the audience will have too deep impression of you, so that they can't get into the role!"
"…You look down on my acting skills?"
Lu Xiaoran put down his cell phone and said to her in anger.
"No, you starred in "The Big Man" so well!"
"Thank you for the compliment…"
"Hey, can "Big Man" exceed 500 million... Why are you calling again..."
Before he finished speaking, his cell phone rang again. Lu Xiaoran smiled awkwardly and ran to answer the phone. Tangtang helped explain: "There is no matter what happens in the later stage of "The Lonely Agent", and he will only ask him during the rest..."
"Tsk tsk, it's so amazing. While doing the post-production, you can still get into the show at any time!"
Su Lun had a rich expression, and didn’t know whether he was praising or sarcasm, and then asked: “Tangtang, do you think the box office of "The Big Man" can exceed 500 million?"
Tangtang smiled, then nodded with certainty.
“…so sure?”
"The top needs a domestic movie to boost the market, but 500 million won't go offline!" After looking at Lu Xiaoran who was still on the phone, she lowered her voice: "I tell you, it seems that Jindun is ready to book a venue..."
“Purchase the venue? How much does it take?”
"There are 20 million, no matter how it is!"
