Chapter 240 Just make money
The costume design of "Love has a Next Life" is Mo Xiaomin. He used to do stage design at the Shanghai Opera House, and later made costumes of "Jing Ke assassination of Qin King"...
Most film directors are willing to find a theater stage designer. This tradition is founded by Kurosawa Akira, his royal costume artist, Emi Wada. There is a classic saying: The first thing I think about is how to reflect the character's personality in design.
Clothing design, styling design is very important!
This thing is one of the most intuitive visual aesthetic experiences for the audience. Before the filming has been completed, the audience will also have some understanding of the style of the entire film through the early character makeup photos or character posters.
You are like the beggar wind in "Zhu Xian" who directly persuades most passers-by to withdraw.
In fact, when we comment on a movie, we often mention the three departments of costumes, makeup, and props, which are all affiliated with the major field of art.
In other words, early art guidance not only needed to coordinate the scene shape of the film, including setting and props, but also to coordinate the character shape, including clothing, makeup, and makeup, so that it can be unified in the same visual style.
Therefore, many times, the art director of the movie also serves as the styling guide, while the specific character styling focuses more on clothing styling, and is often responsible for the clothing styling.
Mo Xiaomin also served as the styling guide for "Love has a Next Life"...
The clothes she designed for Ajiu are in a cool tone, except for the red long skirt she had first met, with big black braids and picturesque eyebrows.
Cool colors, blue, cyan and green represent women pretending to be calm and plain.
This is all about color psychology…
Back to shooting, the lights were in place, and photographer Lai Yaohui sat steadily in the car and pointed the camera at Shen Lin.
“Ation!”
Shen Lin rode a horse and shouted 'Haven!'
The dark horse immediately ran wildly. He was about to chase a wild boar. He raised his snatch and was about to shoot when he suddenly heard the sound of the flute...
So he chased towards the sound of the flute.
Liu Qianxi turned her back to him, dressed in red, and sat on a stone playing the flute.
‘Wow…’
Shen Lin tied the reins, the dark horse stopped, and the horse's hooves gently stepped on the grass, making a nice tick sound.
The sound of the flute stopped, Liu Qianqian looked back sideways, Shen Lin stood there on the spot...
The lens is frozen!
In the next scene, Liu Qianqian jumped directly from the stone and wanted to run. Shen Lin drove the horse forward, but he didn't dare to let go of his speed, for fear of hitting her. Liu Qianqian fell to the ground. Shen Lin drove the horse around her twice, then reached out and lifted her directly to the horse's back!
That's right, the budding of love begins with forcing the robbery of a woman.
Ah Ming is essentially a bandit,
After grabbing her, of course she tied her up and sent her to her room...
...
During supper, Yu Feihong praised Liu Qianxi:
"I did a good job today. I used to hear people say that you acted seriously and worked hard, and I only saw it today!"
“…No, it’s just completing the task…”
Liu Qianqian was a little embarrassed and waved her hand quickly.
Although I wrote it simply, the stone was very big, and it would be easy to hurt if you jumped off the top without any attention. Also, Shen Lin reached out to lift her up to the front. This paragraph was quite dangerous...
Not to mention strength or something, the horse's back is very uncomfortable!
She still has to struggle, and if she is not careful, she has to fall down, so Shen Lin still has to fix her hard...
Very dangerous!
This drama was completed in one go, without any definite problem, it was very good.
Yu Feihong was particularly satisfied.
Chen Lin pretended to be yelling for himself: "Where is me? Don't you praise me? It's very difficult for me!"
"I've filmed a movie with you and I know you're amazing!"
“…This is almost the same!”
Chen Lin lowered his head and continued to eat vegetables.
Speaking of which, there are quite a lot of delicacies here in Yunnan, including Xuanwei ham, green pepper matsutake mushrooms, steam pot chicken, Dali casserole fish, braised chicken mushrooms, Yiliang roast duck, bait blocks, Kunming pickled vegetables, Qujing steamed bait shreds...
Anyway, Chen Lin is very satisfied with the crew’s food!
Over there, Mommy Liu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke: "Linzi, I'll ask you something!"
“…Auntie, you said!”
I was a little nervous, so serious, could it be that I discovered that my daughter came to Dalinzi's room halfway through last night to discuss the script?
Liu Qianqian also looked at her mother a little nervously...
“Did you do Twilight?”
“…Yes, yes, it’s me!”
Scared, "Twilight"...
"I saw a report in the afternoon, and it said that the drama invested $35 million, the box office in North America for the first weekend was 80 million, and the world exceeded $150 million. Is that true?"
Chen Lin said honestly: "...I don't know, David only told me about the first day's box office results."
“…You don’t care?”
"I only know that this drama has made money, and I really don't care much about the rest!"
“…$35 million…”
Jiang Wen was also interested and interrupted Mommy Liu: "Twilight City? What's the point?"
"It is a best-selling novel. Most book fans are teenagers. Tens of millions of copies sold in North America. The film and television adaptation rights I bought the same year ago..."
“Best-selling novel?”
"Well, it tells the love story of a cold and handsome vampire and an ordinary girl, it's very vulgar!"
Jiang Wen was speechless: "Then do you still do it?"
"I can make money, and I can make US dollars directly from North America, of course I will do it!"
“Can you make money by adapting a best-selling novel?”
Chen Lin hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "No, two years ago, "Dragon Knight", also adapted from the best-selling magic novel for teenagers, failed in his first attempt..."
"Dragon Knight", a movie based on the best-selling novel "Dragon Knight" produced by 20th Century Fox...
Twentieth Century Fox was ambitious and wanted to make it the second Harry Potter. The first film cost $100 million to find the director of "Spy Shadows", Stephen Van Mill, and then, collapsed.
The box office in North America was $70 million, but the world's $2200 million...
The key word of mouth is also very bad.
I guess this is why Twentieth Century Fox rejected "Twilight"...
Yu Feihong also became interested: "Then you dare to vote?"
"…It's not much, $35 million, I'll lose, so I'll make a profit!"
Mommy Liu continued to interject: "They said Twilight City became the second highest-grossing movie in the entire Hollywood film history, second only to "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire"... They also said that Twilight City is preparing to make four movies?"
“Not four…”
Chen Lin shook his head, then nodded: "But the last one must be split into two episodes..."
"ah?"
"Make more money, who made "Twilight" write four movies! I call this type of movie, which is specially filmed for fans of "Twilight", and by the way, it uses amazing first weekend results to attract passers-by... It has no artistic value, it is purely for making money!"
"Let's stop discussing it, talk about something else..."
Yu Feihong suddenly took out his cell phone, answered a call, and said, "It may be a bit difficult for you to talk about something else."
"What's wrong?"
"I have a few media friends who want to interview you."
"Then...no, I'm still shooting!"
"They said they won't delay your shooting time..."
Dalinzi was confused for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, let them make an appointment."
Chapter completed!
