Many female viewers don't like this kind of man who is sandwiched between two women, swinging from side to side, not knowing how to choose, and always taking the initiative.
As for the movie "Skin Change", there is no doubt that the majority of the audience is female, so such an image of the male protagonist will probably get a lot of bricks.
We can only hope that Wu Di's handsome appearance is enough to soothe the hearts of the audience, and that the structure of the story is still tolerable.
In addition, Xiao Wu's superb acting skills may be able to make up for it.
So for Wu Di, the success of the skin-changing movie depends on whether his acting skills can support it.
In order to adapt to the new publicity environment, we also tested the audience's acceptance of Wu Di, a newcomer.
Zhang Feng has placed pre-roll ads in front of many popular films, and at the same time, released some trailers in some magazine promotions and online interviews.
Although they are all the result of editing, it is a mule or a horse, so it can be regarded as being pulled out and running around.
If Wu Di is really a helpless man, it can already be seen from the market response of these films.
So far, the response has been very good.
Judging from the background data provided by the website, in addition to the two Xiaohuas who are far ahead, as a newcomer, Wu Di's data is closely behind, and he is the protagonist that the audience is most interested in.
In this aspect, Zhen Ge can't even compare to Wu Di.
On the one hand, the audience praised Wu Di's appearance, and on the other hand, they were also very interested in his performance.
Seeing that the audience was highly consistent with her thoughts, Zhang Feng felt happy from the bottom of her heart, which showed that she still had a good vision.
Being able to select a good talent like Wu Di from an unknown group of performers.
As a director, Zhang Feng must be happy.
For a director, being able to select roles is also a skill that is crucial to his future film career.
In today's film market, high-investment films are roughly divided into two models.
One type is based on the gathering of big names, bringing together the most famous actors at that time, and preferably the general winners, both men and women, together.
This type of movie, to a certain extent, is also a kind of platter movie. Because these actors have already become famous, their acting skills are also well-known.
This kind of acting school, in a movie, does not appear alone, nor does it appear in two, but appears together.
The cast list can all be arranged in a row, but it cannot be divided into sequential order. For a movie with such a large number of big names, in the current movie market, the quality is mixed.
Because there is often a problem in this kind of movies, and that is whether the compatibility between the actors and the characters is high enough.
After all, the invitees are all big-name actors, from directors to producers, and of course they will not let go of these stars who earn high salaries.
They will definitely be allowed to show their faces as much as possible in the movie and play more important roles.
Such roles are of course limited. In addition, the length of the movie is relatively short, so it is even more difficult to arrange a large number of stars.
Then, it will appear that an actor may have very good results in his previous works and his acting skills are sufficient, but in a film like this, he is not suitable for the role he plays.
This is not a problem of the actor's ability, but because there are so many big names, it is really impossible for everyone to get a role suitable for them.
Therefore, in recent years, although there have been many movies of this kind, there are actually not many that are both well-received and box office hits.
The film "Skin Change" obviously does not belong to the first type. It is a typical fan-oriented youth film.
First of all, the overall age of the movie actors is relatively young. If the movie genre is not positioned as a fantasy film, it would be more than enough to directly make a campus romance movie with the original cast and there would be no problem at all.
If a movie of this type wants to gain a good reputation, it must have strict requirements on the structure of the story and the performances of the actors.
Needless to say, these two little flowers have a strong fan base, which is the fundamental reason why Zhang Feng chose them.
This is more effective than bringing money into the group. After all, the box office you can get is real money and not adulterated at all.
In this youth-type film, many new actors will appear, and their roles are often not small, and they have to be judged by the audience.
How the director's vision is and whether he can choose the right person to play the role is a very test of skill.
For a new director like Zhang Feng, this skill is particularly important.
There is a type of director who basically takes a safe route when making movies. The actors he chooses are often already famous in the industry and have guaranteed acting skills.
In this way, the movie will gain a lot of attention once it is released, and at the same time, the lower limit of movie quality will be guaranteed.
For directors like Zhang Feng, the films they shoot basically require a lot of new actors.
Whether these actors can interpret the work well depends on the director's vision and training.
If done properly and with a tacit understanding between the two parties, batches of new movie stars can emerge from the hands of such directors.
This is of course mutually beneficial. For an actor, from being unknown to becoming famous quickly, it is almost not necessary to accumulate many works. Just one movie is enough to become a hit.
This kind of opportunity is rare, and it is also the dream of many actors to become popular.
It's like a famous horse meets Bole.
Then, a good eye for casting and the ability to train actors are your golden signatures. Once you have one or two movies like this, your reputation will be accumulated.
Then in the future, there will be more and more new actors who are willing to work with this director. Those who are talented and have acting skills will naturally be very easy to choose.
For actors, they have found a way to become popular, and for directors, it creates a metaphysical atmosphere where whoever you support becomes famous.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It will also be of great benefit to future shooting work.
And now it seems that, as his first movie, Zhang Feng has taken this step forward!
In fact, for Zhang Feng, becoming a film director is also a difficult road.
The difficulties and obstacles involved cannot be explained to outsiders.
This is why, even though she and Lao Zhang dislike each other, after the filming actually started, Zhang Feng still had to accept some help from Lao Zhang, even if she was unwilling.
There are some gender factors implicit in this.
The circle of directors is still relatively closed, with men occupying the vast majority of the profession.
There is no need to doubt this or deliberately avoid this issue for the sake of so-called fairness.
Not only in domestic entertainment, but also in country A, just look at the female directors who have won awards at previous award ceremonies.
Even if you stretch your fingers, you can't even fit one hand together.
Firstly, when film art first originated, no matter which country it was, women generally did not have the qualifications to receive higher education as a matter of course.
Reading basically stops at middle school, let alone learning film techniques that are time-consuming, laborious, illusory, and a waste of money.
Movie directors are different from movie actors. Actors need to play opposite each other. There cannot be male actors everywhere and no female actors at all.
Therefore, in the profession of actors, there must be actresses.
The world of directing is different. No one stipulates that directors must be equally divided between men and women. Originally, the majority of people studying film technology were men. In fact, in the early black-and-white film period, there were no women engaging in directing at all.
This industry has been dominated by male directors for a long time, due to both innate factors and acquired exclusion.
It can be seen that although in the new millennium, female directors have gradually begun to emerge, and many countries have emerged with good female directors.
But one thing is that there are still very few such women, and their level of fame cannot be compared with those well-known male directors.
In addition, women are still at an absolute disadvantage when it comes to box office, which is the most important aspect of movies, especially commercial movies.
If you look at the box office rankings, you can see that there are not many female directors who can handle the box office, but they are very few.
So what are the related types of films that female directors can gain a foothold in? Most of them are concentrated in the field of literary films, films that show the inner world and humanistic care.
There are also a small number of biopics. Since there are few practitioners, it is even more difficult for female directors to get ahead.
And when an industry forms a fixed circle, it may be even rarer for outsiders to break into it.
Why would others give you a chance to a woman of a different gender and not necessarily very talented?
Even if you are talented, the bosses in the circle may not necessarily give you a chance. This is obvious.
If you are capable, you are even more incompetent!
What if you steal our jobs?
Therefore, it can be seen that among the few female directors, many are second-generation. In this circle where male directors account for the majority, female directors want to break into the circle and rely on their own reputation.
Guiding my father is a shortcut, but also a helplessness.
Only his own father can support his daughter regardless of reward and regardless of the theories of grouping.
Zhang Feng is such an example.
There are many such examples, and it is not necessary to explain them all clearly.
Compared with other female directors, Zhang Feng faces a more complicated situation.
Most of the films made by others are literary and artistic films, which are psychological and chase awards. As long as you can win an internationally recognized award, your position in the industry will be occupied and you will have the right to speak.
Although it was just a literary film that was well-received but not a box-office hit.
However, it can be seen from the very beginning of the film Zhang Feng is going to shoot that her route is completely different from those of her predecessors.
Skin Change is not destined to be an artistic film, it is a commercial film, and it is a commercial blockbuster of a certain scale.
Zhang Feng is very courageous. As a new director, she can make a small-budget artistic film first, compete for various awards, and then switch to the field of commercial films after she has won some achievements.
In other words, just dive into the pit of literary and artistic films and only shoot various literary films. As the daughter of a famous director, as long as she passes the standard, she can still achieve both fame and fortune. The actors and teams who are willing to work with her will also be
There's a queue.
However, Zhang Feng still resolutely chose commercial films.
She has to choose the road that others have not traveled, and she chooses to bear the pressure that others have not endured.
So whether it can succeed or not is almost a one-time deal.
Now, at least the investment and production teams for the next three films are guaranteed, and she, Zhang Feng, will also break the gender limitations of the box office club and become the only female director with a high box office.
Besides, she is still so young and has a bright future!
However, the difficulty of choosing a commercial film route is also conceivable. Therefore, while trying to ensure the quality of the film, we also roped in two small talents who can increase the box office, so that the box office can be guaranteed.
Coupled with the many connections of the famous director's father, it can also ensure that he will not suffer losses in terms of theaters and publicity, and can even win Zhang Feng more attention.
After making these preparations, it is now time to enter the harvesting stage. Although on the surface, Zhang Feng seems to be very confident and seems to have everything in mind.
But in fact, Zhang Feng was still very panicked.
To put it more seriously, the success or failure of the skin change will have a much greater impact on Zhang Feng than on Wu Di. As an actor, in addition to the skin change, Wu Di can also have a wife.
Even if the presence in Fuzi is too weak to create a star effect, it doesn't matter. He can still have many works, but the speed of becoming popular is just slower.
At least, he still has a chance.
Moreover, as a newcomer, he is still very young and he still has many opportunities.
But, what about Zhang Feng?
She doesn't even have that many opportunities to waste again and again.
The investment in the film "Skin Change" is quite large, absolutely generous, but the post-production expenses are enough to make a medium-invested film.
With such a scale, if the box office performance is not satisfactory, or the quality of the movie is very rubbish, then Zhang Feng will not have another movie for at least two or three years.
This is the director's tragedy.
It's not a big deal for an actor to block a movie, especially for a new actor. This is at best due to lack of experience.
As long as you make progress in your next film, there will always be directors who are willing to make films with you. Newcomers like Wu Di are not paid very high, and they will not participate in the film share. It can be said that the success or failure of the film has nothing to do with it.
Apart from some impact on his personal popularity, other misfortunes have nothing to do with him.
Investors will not settle accounts with him even if they lose money. Of course, when it comes to the skin-changing movie, no one from top to bottom, including the investor Ms. Lan, originally planned to hold him accountable.
From the perspective of the crew, it was because of Wu Di that a large amount of investment was made. The staff of the team were grateful to him and how could they cause trouble for him before it was too late.
The investors are even more secure. Will Ms. Lan still hold her son accountable?
That would be even more impossible.
Therefore, in the movie "Skin Change", Wu Di is almost invincible.
