Chapter 8 Shooting
For the past ten days, Xie Changhua has gained something every time he went there. The plot has become richer and the actors' acting skills have become more mature. He has gone through all the scenes in his mind and drawn the storyboards to ensure that there will be no waste.
After too much film, Xie Changhua finally made up his mind and asked Chen Xi to invite a film crew.
After he completed the 13-episode TVB short drama, he turned down a photography job and took three days off.
At eight o'clock the next morning, except for Xie Changhua who was observing in the dark, everyone else had arrived at the scene.
"Listen to me. Since you have received the money, you must be worthy of the price I paid." Chen Xi took a puff of his cigar and exhaled through his nose: "I spent a big favor this time. Please come.
I hired a potential new director to shoot, and he also helped me train the actors. I am very satisfied. If you are disobedient during the filming, or go against the will, then don’t blame me for being rude."
After saying that, he stared at Xi, glanced at everyone, and started smoking again.
The person in charge of the filming crew, a middle-aged man with gray hair, immediately laughed and said: "I don't dare, I don't dare. Brother Chen asked us to start working just to give us a bite of food. How can we cause trouble? We all listen to him.
If something happens, I will take responsibility, I will take responsibility."
"Well~, that's what you said. If something unpleasant happens, I will only settle the accounts with you, the person in charge, and you can decide on your own." Chen Xi glanced at him sideways and patted his shoulder.
"Oh, it should be, it should be, I guarantee nothing will happen." He kept lowering his waist and said.
Chen Xi nodded and walked aside to smoke a cigarette.
Xie Changhua saw in the dark that the situation was almost under control. After thinking about it, he decided to go outside and then come back in to avoid exposing any flaws.
"Axi, are you ready?" he asked after walking in the door.
Chen Xi immediately waved: "Hey~, Brother Hua, everything is ready, just waiting for you to guide the filming!"
"Well, let's agree first that I will only take the photo this once." Xie Changhua approached and pretended to be embarrassed and said, deliberately letting everyone hear.
"I know, I know you look down on this. Just once, I won't call you when I have experience." Chen Xi said somewhat flatteringly, and with a wave of his hand, he called the person in charge: "Li Shougeng, this
This is the director I invited, you will listen to his instructions later."
"Hey~, director, I am the person in charge of them. You can call me Lao Li. If you are not satisfied with anything later, just say it and we will change it immediately." He immediately extended his hand to say hello.
"Uncle Li, you're too polite. I'll be relying on your help later!" Xie Changhua looked around and stretched out his hand to him.
"Wherever, let's work together!" The two shook hands politely and immediately let go.
"Since you guys are having a good time chatting, Brother Hua, I'll leave first," Chen Xi said nonchalantly.
"Go slowly, go slowly." Li Shougeng immediately turned around and sent him.
After sending it off, he immediately looked at Xie Changhua, smiled and said, "Director, we can start."
Xie Changhua smiled at him and said to everyone: "Hello everyone, your director in the bedroom, you can call me Director Wei. From today on, I will be the director of this play. I hope everyone will do their best and it can be completed as soon as possible.
This drama.”
"Definitely!" Seeing him being so kind, everyone relaxed. After all, he was filming for a club and not only could he not get the balance, but the most important thing was his life safety.
"Director, we are all ready, let's start quickly." Uncle Li said immediately.
Xie Changhua smiled slightly, began to assign tasks one by one, and gave them the prepared storyboard manuscripts.
"I think you have experience, so you should be able to understand it. First, dim the light to a dark yellow, soft light."
"Three camera positions need to be set up here, one is installed above the bed, shooting from a high position, and a close-up shot of the two people making love above the bed, the screen needs to be rotated, the camera needs to be rotated slowly, and there is another one to shoot the small scene,
The last hand holds the camera close and takes a close-up."
"Be careful not to use too much force when shaking the bed later. In the first scene, you only need to use a small amount of force to make a small sound like a gazi gazi. In the second scene, it will be more intense. The makeup artist sprays some water on the actress and wets her hair.
, dressed up to show traces of intense exercise.”
Xie Changhua completed the tasks in three and five times and watched the crew getting busy. He carefully shuttled among them and carefully checked the actors' makeup and lighting.
…
"Uncle Li, this new director still has a lot of skills. He is more planned than the last time we shot. Look at this picture, both of them are on the screen, and it is clear where the camera should be installed."
One employee was relieved.
"Of course, you heard it just now. People don't want to shoot this kind of thing. They must finish filming and leave early. You see how thorough the preparations are. They are more anxious to leave than us. You were worried just now.
I'm going to die." Li Shougeng smiled at him.
"Aren't I afraid that if I don't take the photo well, the money will be taken back? If that boss Chen hadn't given me the money for three days first, I wouldn't have come!"
"So work hard. Other societies will steal even the balance. He gave you the money, and if you do something wrong, it will be even worse." Lao Li shook his head.
"Hey, Uncle Li, you are right."
…
"Okay, let's do a test shoot first. Don't use the camera and find your position." Fifteen minutes later, seeing that the scene was almost arranged, Xie Changhua nodded and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the idle people in the studio were immediately kicked out. Then the black cloth was covered and it immediately became dark. Then when the lights were turned on, the space immediately turned dark yellow. He looked in front of the camera and let the lights
After the master adjusted the light, he raised his big finger. After receiving the message, the director took out the board and started filming with a click, and the actors began to perform.
He lifted the camera and slowly moved it from the darkness of the prop wall. The scene shifted from the ground to the actors on the bed. The filming started as planned.
Although it was just a test shoot, everyone was very serious and the test shoot was completed soon.
"Okay, not bad. I think we won't take a break and start right away!" Xie Changhua looked at the atmosphere and said after thinking for a while.
"Everyone listens to you, director!" Li Shougeng immediately agreed.
…
In a good atmosphere, the filming of the movie went very smoothly. By 11 o'clock in the evening, all the scenes in the bed, bathroom and room had been shot. Next, there were only scenes on the billiard court and in the car. The actress who was hand-picked by Xie Changhua was Bo.
Bo is even more outstanding, and she is much more relaxed and perfect than the other supporting actress Alan. Maybe the filming will be completed one day.
"Director, let's go first!" After the work was over, the people behind the scenes greeted Xie Changhua one by one. Such a smooth and fast shooting made them more comfortable. Maybe this is all based on the sacrifice of the actors and there is no need to clear the set.
"Brother Hua, filming is more tiring than real life!" Ji Ge, an extra, complained.
"Yes, director, I didn't expect that pretending in front of so many people would be more tiring than really doing it. I almost couldn't let go." Alan said coquettishly.
Chapter completed!
