Chapter five hundred and twentieth: This is more able to express emotions
Old people generally don't wear the shoes of the crew. They keep a few pairs at home at all times and wear whatever shoes they want to shoot. The second day after arriving on the crew, Wang Chengyang went to a nearby village to find someone to make shoes. The price was cheap, only 20 yuan.
One pair.
"Thank you." Song Xue was grateful and took the shoes and put them on on the spot. The soles were a bit hard but very comfortable.
"You're welcome, just remember to pay me back later."
Wang Chengyang asked himself that he was not a good person. The reason why he helped Song Xue was because he saw that the girl was of good quality and had thanked him profusely when they had divided the relationship.
If it were the girl named Lu Meng, he would be a loser at all.
"Handsome boy, do you still have shoes? Can you give me a pair?" When Cao Cao arrived, Lu Meng saw that Song Xue had new shoes and came immediately.
Wang Chengyang was indifferent and said calmly: "No, just make do with what you wear."
"Why are they gone? Why does Song Xue have clean shoes? Can I pay for them?"
"I really don't have clean shoes. The extras are all wearing the same thing. It's not about money. Don't make it difficult for me."
"You really don't want to give it?" Lu Meng said coldly, "Do you believe I can find the director?"
In her opinion, the crew had clean shoes, and because they had taken away all the drinks before, this little stage manager deliberately retaliated.
Wang Chengyang shrugged, "It's useless even if you ask Mr. Fang. I bought the shoes myself, not the crew."
"you……"
"Every department is in its place, ready to go first." A few meters away, the stage manager shouted with a loudspeaker. When Wang Chengyang passed by, he whispered: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, the little girl has a temper."
Staring at the backs of these students, the stage manager cursed, "There's so much going on. Normally I would have kicked them over. What the hell."
"Is this just a group performance? How can I stand out? Teacher Zhang Yi and Teacher Yin Tao are not so angry."
Patting the stage manager on the shoulder, Wang Chengyang nodded, feeling the same.
Having been in so many production crews, the higher the rank among the actors he has seen, the more friendly they are. Especially when it comes to the staff, he has never seen anyone shouting around.
On the contrary, those who are a little famous are the ones who do the most shit. They nod and bow in front of the director, and turn around to look like the second child, and I am the third child.
"Everyone, get ready, raise the banner and start shooting!"
The stage manager made a decision, and a group of extras shouted hoarsely at Zhang Yi, holding banners and shouting things like "exploit, knock down, etc."
Less than three minutes later, the director called a stop and tried again with a different lens.
The second, third, and fourth time, this scene required six or seven shots. It was okay at first. The students were very excited and just wanted to finish the filming quickly. But after more times, they became less enthusiastic and felt very boring.
"Stop! What's going on with those two people? They're looking around and their faces are blurred. Do you know why you're still wearing your watch?"
The director started to curse over the intercom, and the assistant director ran forward and saw that a male student had not taken off his watch for some reason, and it had been accidentally exposed just now.
"I'm sorry, director, I didn't mean it."
The student put the watch in his pocket, and apologized profusely. He had touched his forearm because of the trouble, and it had slipped off after a long time.
"Pay attention." The assistant director hesitated, glanced at Tao Jing who was standing next to him, swallowed the curse words in his mouth, and looked at the female student whose face was in the painting with a dark face.
"You are a group of performers. Except for those standing in front, no other faces can be included in the painting. Don't look around!"
The extras act as various background characters. You show your face here, you show your face somewhere, sometimes they are farmers, sometimes they are hawkers, sometimes they are passers-by. Did the audience watch the show?
The assistant director can understand the mentality of these newcomers, they all want to show their face to be remembered, but you can show it if you want to? It is not unheard of that the whole team worked overtime to reshoot due to an extra act.
"This time, if anyone dares to be in the mirror again, don't blame me for being rude. Do you really think this is your home?"
With a gloomy face and a ferocious tone, it seemed that the assistant director was scolding the senior extras, but in fact he was talking about these students.
No one dared to say anything, so we took another shot. This time, no one showed their faces, but a few people whispered to each other and actually laughed and chatted.
In the director's studio, Xu Ding almost smashed the tea cup. There were two low-level mistakes in such a simple scene. Yin Tao and Zhang Yi had been brewing their emotions for a long time. This is what they were waiting for?
But when I thought that these students were brought in by Fang Jing, I still managed to hold back my anger.
"Old Wang! How do you do things? Do you want to do it? You can't even explain such a trivial thing..."
The students were not allowed to vent their anger, so Xu Ding took his anger out on the assistant director and cursed him.
He was already simmering with anger, and the assistant director couldn't bear it. It was none of his business. Someone made a mistake despite being warned, and he would have been told to get out by now.
"That girl! What about you? You're deaf and can't hear, right? You grew up eating broken rice? Damn it, you, you can't understand human speech, right? There are so many people in the crew who can do well, but you...
…”
The one being scolded was a pretty girl. She was pointed at her nose and scolded like this. Her eyes turned red and she was about to cry. The male students around her couldn't stand it and said to the assistant director: "That's alright. Is it necessary to be so cruel? The director didn't say anything."
"
On the side, Wang Chengyang smiled. The grass on the grave of the last person who dared to talk to the assistant director like this was several meters high.
It's rare for an assistant director to hit someone on the set, and swearing is normal. Many big directors are polite outside, but they can't help but swear when they're on set.
The scolding must be because you are not good at acting. You must admit your mistakes. If you are beaten, you must stand upright. If you say a few words, you must talk back. The director does not need to fool around.
The assistant director's face turned the color of pig's liver. How long has it been since he heard someone dare to talk to him like this? What if you are a big shot? You can even call me a grandson. How can a small extra act be so cool?
"Old Wang, pay attention to your identity." Xu Ding's voice came out from the intercom, and he was also very angry.
With a sullen face, the assistant director shouted: "Do it again, and whoever makes a mistake will get out of here!"
The air was frozen, and the senior group was acting tremblingly for fear of being implicated, but the Nortel students didn't care. In their view, this was a compromise by the assistant director.
"Wang Chengyang! Come here and shout, I'm going to the toilet."
"oh!"
Holding a loudspeaker, Wang Chengyang stood outside and followed the group performers, directing them where to stop and where to start talking. No one made any mistakes this time, and everything went smoothly.
At the beginning of the second game, there were two students running in front. They had a few lines, talking to Zhang Yi and asking why they were not paid.
"Mr. Chen, we just want wages and we can't survive. They haven't been paid in two months."
"Yes, I still have a wife and children to support at home. You can't exploit poor people like this. Do you believe me or not? I will sue you?"
"Everyone, be quiet, I..."
"Stop!" the director got angry over the intercom, "Who asked the wife and children to change the lines randomly? Also, what's going on with the angry and arrogant people? The assistant director didn't tell the story?"
"Director, I told you." This happened to Lao Wang just after he came back from going to the toilet, and he was about to cry without tears. "It was fine at the time."
The original lines were not about the wife and children, they were spoken in dialect, and there were no unnecessary movements.
On the set, the student said loudly: "I think this makes it more immersive, and the body language and rich facial expressions can also express the correct emotions of migrant workers after being squeezed."
