148 [Please call me Director Ye]
Not many people paid attention to the start of "Love Apartment", and Ye Cheng didn't do any worship ceremony, so he rolled up his sleeves and started to do it.≧,
The staff behind the entire crew, plus the worker, were only less than 40, so the number of people was divided into two director groups. One group was led by Fang Zhuomin to shoot the main shots; the second group was led by deputy director Zhang Feng to shoot the secondary shots. If there were big scenes such as wedding scenes, the two groups were shot together, otherwise there would be insufficient staff.
The crew is too poor and there is no way to do so. Most of the extras are guest appearances from students from Shanghai Theater. Some freshmen and sophomore students even come to help, work as passers-by, hold recording poles, help carry props, etc. They are willing to do so without getting paid, just consider it to accumulate crew experience in advance.
No matter how stingy Ye Cheng is, he will not be able to work in vain. He will still give the wages he should give.
On the day of the startup, the sky was clear and the sun was shining.
Well, it's just a little bit brighter. Fortunately, the first scene was filmed indoors, otherwise the weather at 32 degrees would definitely be very hot outside.
Ye Cheng was watching Fang Zhuomin and You Xianyong set up the camera seats. His cousin Zhang Qiang suddenly came in with a flower basket and asked, "Mr. Ye, the flowers are being sent. Do you want to move them all in?"
Zhang Qiang came by himself. Ye Cheng's aunt heard that she was going to film a movie and stuffed her son into the crew. Fortunately, this cousin was very disciplined. She did not ask Chengcheng or cousin to shout in the crew, but instead called Ye Gong. No one knew that he was a relative of the producer.
Ye Cheng asked with a headache: "Have you sent it all?"
Zhang Qiang nodded and said, "All of them are delivered, a total of ten flower baskets. I see that the sun is very big outside, so I am afraid it will be wilted."
"Where is my dad?" Ye Cheng asked.
Zhang Qiang said: "My uncle is in a long-distance passenger transport company and I heard that something went wrong with the airport bus I rented."
Ye Cheng was speechless. Before the shooting started, there was a problem. This morning's shooting only requires a flower basket. The remaining flower baskets must be used at least tomorrow. They are sent to make hair early in the morning, and they will probably be wilted by putting them tomorrow.
Ye Cheng had no choice but to say: "You discuss with the prop group and find a cool place to put it."
Zhang Qiang put down the flower basket and ran out immediately. Ye Cheng approached Fang Zhuomin again and asked, "Brother Fang, I saw that the heroine's skin was white and moist in other people's idol dramas. How did she shoot it?"
Fang Zhuomin explained: "It mainly depends on the lighting. The photography filter can also produce effects, and the later dimming and color tuning."
Ye Cheng suggested: "I think our heroines must also shoot this whitening effect, so that the audience can be amazed."
"Ok, I understand what you mean. Brother Yong. I'll add filters to the camera later," Fang Zhuomin shouted to Qiao Yu again, "Fatty, be careful about the lighting, try to use soft light, and turn on the light according to the flavor of Korean idol dramas."
Ye Cheng asked again: "Brother Fang, I heard that before filming, I would like to get a storyboard script. Where is our storyboard?"
Fang Zhuomin explained with a lot of laughter and cry, "You are talking about drawing a storyboard? You only use that when you make a movie, and TV series is not that troublesome. Mr. Ye, just rest next to you, don't come and cause trouble for me."
"Oh." Ye Cheng retreated aside awkwardly and watched everyone work silently. He was not making trouble, but wanted to learn something to accumulate experience for film and television dramas in the future.
The host and the game are quickly confirmed. Fang Zhuomin called for a light substitute for the last performance and spent more than ten minutes to turn on the lights. After the recording was also debugged, he asked Ye Jiamin and the two short performances to go through the scene, and then said to Ye Cheng with a smile: "Mr. Ye, why don't you call for the start of the computer?"
"Okay. I will do this." Ye Cheng finally found his own value of existence.
Ye Jiamin stood with a walkie-talkie in her hand, and the other three acting performances stood in the corner outside the camera.
Fang Zhuomin shouted: "The recording microphone is in place!"
After the microphone audition, the microphone kept resting with the recording rod. When he heard Fang Zhuomin's order, he immediately carried the recording rod.
Fang Zhuomin said again: "Everyone, don't walk around after the fixed position, irrelevant people will leave!"
The people behind the scenes walked to the corner, and some simply sat on the ground and stood there, which might block the light.
“Photography is on!”
"Recording is on!"
The scene record held up the board and walked to the main camera, shouting: "Love Apartment" has one shot and one shot..."
Fang Zhuomin handed the guide to Ye Cheng and smiled and said, "Mr. Ye, come on!"
Ye Cheng was a little excited and shouted, "Exchange!"
At the beginning, it was a close-up of Hu Yifei's slow motion, showing her mouth, face, hands and feet while walking. This set of scattered shots does not even require acting skills, and it took less than ten minutes to complete it.
The next second camera is the key point. Ye Jiamin took the walkie-talkie to his mouth and said in a crazy quick speech: "Yes, that's right, the red carpet is 80 meters. What's wrong? It's actually 5 meters away. This boss is too immoral! The price of pork has increased, and even the carpet is short of weight. The carpet in their house is made of pig skin? Notify the lawyer and I want to sue him!"
During the filming, the director on the scene kept making gestures. When Ye Jiamin said the first line, two extras appeared in the camera. One was used as the background of the camera and the other walked past the camera. The camera also moved slowly with Ye Jiamin's footsteps.
"Okay, it's a good performance." Fang Zhuomin praised. For him, filming a TV series is too simple. You don't have to consider the composition of the camera and the color of the light. Anyway, just use soft light to make the protagonists beautiful and handsome.
"Prepare for the next shot," Fang Zhuomin said to Ye Jiamin, "Jiamin, keep the aura that just now."
"Okay director!" Ye Jiamin was serious about filming for the first time. Not to mention how excited she was, she had already memorized the lines today, and she even pulled her classmates to rehearse countless times.
As for the so-called aura, there is no need to act. Ye Jiamin is originally a tomboy, and the effect will be revealed if it is slightly exaggerated in front of the camera.
"One scene of "Love Apartment" 3 shots once."
“ation!”
Since most actors are filming TV series for the first time, Fang Zhuomin has been constantly preparing. Unexpectedly, the first indoor scene was filmed very quickly, and it only took four times in total. I thought I needed to shoot a whole day, but I actually got most of the scenes by noon.
After filming, Fang Zhuomin also found it funny. He was used to the progress of filming movies. It was really unacceptable to filming TV series so quickly.
Ye Cheng stood behind the monitor and observed how Fang Zhuomin dispatched and directed. He didn't understand the technical things, but he was already familiar with the shooting process. This was different from being an actor. As an actor, he could only take a look at the leopard, but standing behind the monitor, he controlled the entire audience.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the indoor scene has reached the last set of shots.
Fang Zhuomin first talked about the drama with Ye Jiamin and Li Jiawei, and then asked them to leave for a while. He felt that it was almost done before he ordered the filming to start.
After watching it for a long time, Ye Cheng had been very jealous. He smiled and said, "Brother Fang, how about I'll take a picture of this last scene?"
Fang Zhuomin glanced at him and nodded, "Okay, come on."
Ye Cheng and Fang Zhuomin made way out of the position. He stood happily on the monitor and said seriously: "Each department is in place, irrelevant personnel leave the field, and prepare to start."
Anyway, there is a lot of spare time today, so Fang Zhuomin lets him do it. At worst, he can only reshoot it. The digital camera is not afraid of wasting film. He clapped his hands with a smile and said, "Everyone is cheering up. This is our director's office. If there is a problem with the female shooting, he will deduct his salary!"
The crew laughed.
Li Jiawei said aggrievedly: "No, I changed the director as soon as I came on stage, and the pressure was too great."
Ye Cheng smiled and said, "You are unlucky when you meet me. If you dare to do this scene, you will have no lunch box tomorrow. You will be ready for your own dry food when you go back tonight."
Ye Jiamin also made fun of it and said, "Director Ye, can you increase the salary after the filming is done?"
Ye Cheng said: "Don't think about increasing the pay. After taking this shot, I'll treat you to a big meal another day!"
"cut,.
"Okay, don't make a fuss, be serious!" Ye Cheng pretended to behave and said to the recording engineer, "Have the recording been done?"
"Well," Fang Zhuomin said suddenly, "Director Ye, the recording has just been debugged."
Ye Cheng laughed and scolded: "Where is this director here, do you have the part to talk?"
Fang Zhuomin couldn't help but smile and said, "Then you are busy first, I will take your leave."
Ye Cheng then said with satisfaction: "The recording can be turned on."
"Recording is on!"
“Photography is on!”
“ation!”
Chapter completed!
