"Sister An, I just took a short film, and it was explained by Brother Ye." Li Tang said helplessly.
This time, Naian took on him another job, a small role in a Wanwan martial arts TV series filmed in Hengdian. Don’t look at Li Tang as soon as he debuted, he was the male lead in the film studio tribute film. He was so awesome.
, In fact, small characters like this are in line with his current positioning.
The movie has not been released yet, the TV series has not been broadcast, and it has not been tested by the market, let alone become popular. Speaking of which, the biggest reason why Naian was able to take on this job is because "Returning the Pearl 2". "Returning the Pearl" became popular
, "Returning the Pearl 2" will naturally not be much worse.
“How long will this short film take?”
Because there is no pay and not even a contract, Naian doesn't know about this situation.
"It will take at least half a month." Li Tang thought for a while.
The crew of "Criminals" has been established. Cheng Er brought seven or eight students from Nortel to serve as the main creators behind the scenes, photography, lighting, art design, recording, etc., and declared to the public that "the joint work of the 1999 graduates of Nortel".
Li Tang just met with two other main characters in the short film yesterday. The person who plays Hu Tian’s younger brother Hu Di is a young man named Hu Ge. He is only seventeen years old today. He is a young host of Education TV Station and is now at Shanghai No. 2 Middle School.
Going to the first year of high school.
Shanghai No. 2 Middle School is very close to the Drama Center and has a tradition of cultural and artistic performances. Xu Guangtou graduated from this middle school.
The young man is quite handsome, about the same height as Li Tang. It’s not to mention standing together, it really looks like a brother. And after all, he has been a young host for many years and has a certain performance foundation.
The lover of Hu Tian, the clerk Xiao Zhang, is a young model who has just debuted and filmed commercials. She is three years younger than Li Tang. She is quite beautiful, but her voice is thicker.
After all, the crew has no money. In addition, Cheng Er asked the short film to be in Shanghai dialect and could only find local actors in Shanghai.
"That should be fine."
Naian was relieved and continued: "This drama has just started filming and is expected to be filmed for about two months. Your character doesn't have many scenes, only about eight episodes. I'll discuss with the crew and wait until you finish filming this short film.
It's time for the crew to report."
"Well, that's great."
Of course it is a good thing to have a job. In recent years, with the opening up, many Hong Kong dramas have come to the mainland to shoot, and the motherland is beautiful and the labor cost is low. Generally, the leading actors and main creators are their own people, and the supporting roles are mainland actors.
At most, it is for a second male or female.
But to be honest, Hong Kong and Taiwan stars are indeed very well-known in the mainland these days and are very popular among mainland audiences. In a sense, the success of "Return of the Condor Heroes" has indeed made Xiaoyanzi the first mainland idol star.
.
Perhaps it was also because of the glory of "Return of the Pearl 2". This time, Li Tang played this small role with eight episodes, and the other party still offered a pay of 5,000 per episode, 40,000 per episode, and 32,000 per episode after deducting the share.
"Don't worry, when "Return of the Journey 2" is broadcast, I will dare to call for a 10,000 yuan per episode to the public." Naian said with a smile.
It seems that everyone is full of confidence in "Return of the Journey 2", and Naian is ready for Li Tanghong. Ten thousand yuan per episode, which is the treatment of the male lead.
...
"Brother Li, discuss something?" Sun Li smiled and came to Li Tang's side.
He is Cheng Er's classmate and works as an art designer on the crew. Compared to Cheng Er's taciturn, this guy is much more active. He meets people either brothers or sisters, his mouth is like a smear of honey, and he is very talkative.
"Smiling is not a good thing. Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Brother Li, can you shave your hair?"
"Shaving your head? No problem." Li Tang said.
He shaved his head when filming "Return of the Pearl 2". Now more than two months have passed, his hair has grown a lot, and his sides and back have been slightly repaired. Now he has neat short hair. Li Tang thought this hairstyle
It's a bit trendy and is not suitable for the character Hu Tian, so you can make a flat head or something.
But then Sun Li stammered: "I mean shaving your head, do you think it's OK?"
"Bald? Why?" Li Tang was stunned.
Either he doesn't want to, or his hair has finally grown, why do you have to shave your head again?
"Hu Tian took the box in the hotel lobby. The police found the person holding the box from the surveillance video. Because it was not a frontal camera, it needed a more eye-catching feature. I discussed with the director. The best way is to shave it.
Bald head.”
"That's how..."
Li Tang thought about it and felt that what Sun Li said made sense, so he said readily: "No problem, shave it."
As an actor, everything has to serve the show.
So within a short while, Li Tang appeared in front of everyone with a big round bald head.
Hu Ge was surprised that the seventeen-year-old man loved beauty at the time. Because he wanted to be a host, his hairstyle was not too trendy and exaggerated, but he put on gel water every day and was combed smoothly.
When Huang Yi saw him, he covered his mouth with both hands and made an exaggerated expression, then pulled her duck voice and smiled: "Brother Li, you have a very good head shape and a bald head is also beautiful!"
Because of family background, this little girl came into contact with society very early, has a cheerful personality and knows how to do things. In a few days, she became very familiar with the people in the crew. She learned that Li Tang had starred in "Return of the Pearl 2" and watched Li Tang's
The eyes change differently, and I feel a little bit deliberate about making friends.
Li Tang also had a bit of pity for her. Everyone had their parents divorced when they were very young, and at least they had a father who was as love as a mountain. This little girl was much more miserable, and her parents didn't care about it, so they could only follow her grandfather.
Grandma's life.
So Li Tang understood this very well. A little girl who has no backing and no resources wants to change the status quo, but she can only not give up any possible opportunity, even if it may be slim.
It was precisely because of this mentality that when Li Tang heard her praise, he touched his naked head and rolled his eyes at her: "Thank you, I thank you for your family!"
Huang Yi giggled and said deliberately: "Brother Li, what I said is true."
In fact, the more Li Tang has this attitude, the more natural Huang Yi feels. As for young people, it is normal for everyone to joke together and fight. But if you are too polite, the further the distance between the two sides will be, and there will be even
It feels like keeping people from thousands of miles away.
In the past two days of starting the filming, they are basically shooting empty shots, mainly running-in. Although they are all students from Beijing Film Academy, they often quarrel over a shot and a composition, as if everyone is an artist, but Cheng
I always insisted every time and didn't talk much, but I resisted to the end, and in the end everyone had to accept his opinions.
This is the basic quality of a director. If you can't even control a crew, Li Tang should really consider whether he should give him enough trust.
Today is the first time I filmed a scene with someone, and it was a highlight. The shooting location is in the lobby of the International Guidu Hotel on Yan'an Road.
This time the crew was able to easily enter the hotel lobby to shoot, thanks to Huang Yi, because she was the front desk of the hotel before, and the hotel gave the green light for this.
This scene tells Hu Tian was waiting for his friend in the hotel lobby, but his friend broke the appointment. He accidentally encountered an uninhabited box. After some ideological struggle, he picked up the box and ran away.
There are three elements in this scene. The first is to wait for a friend to borrow money to help his life, but the friend has not arrived for a long time. It is obviously because of the frustration after being released from the pigeon; the second is to panic, when he meets that
When I found that the box was definitely not an ordinary box, I wanted to take it for myself; the third was to escape, and finally made up my mind to escape after I took the box.
"Brother Li, you can start."
The on-site camera has been set up and the lighting is debugged in place, but the grass team has no monitors at all. Director Cheng Er is standing next to the camera, and a friend is holding a stopwatch in his hand to count the time.
It is said that it can start, but it is not just about starting a real shot, but about performing it first, confirming that there is no problem, and then measure the length of the required film based on the time of the stopwatch, and finally start the real shot.
Because there is no money, film is carefully calculated, ensuring that every frame of film must be effective and there is no second chance. In this regard, the so-called monitor loses its meaning because you don’t have the chance to start over.
