Here we talk about the positioning of micro-movies.
When micro-movies first appeared, they were indeed quite popular, and many well-known directors did get involved.
However, as this popularity has passed, the positioning of micro-films is now a bit embarrassing.
It can be said that basically few directors who can make big movies will make short films. Without them, their identities do not match.
Another thing, this kind of so-called demonstration work is actually quite useless to many well-known directors.
Moreover, if the demonstration work is well taken, it is a matter of course. If the demonstration work is not well taken, it will be embarrassing.
Therefore, Penguin Video has invited many directors, but in fact there are really not many people willing to take it.
After all, even if it is a short film, it is still a work, and it requires time and energy to shoot.
If you have that kind of energy, you might as well make your own theatrical movie.
Therefore, Penguin Video is also casting a wide net to catch more fish, allowing other companies under Penguin Video to also search for suitable resources.
Of course, if you find a suitable resource and recommend it, it will be adopted, and cooperation will be achieved, it will definitely be beneficial.
This is why Li Wen is excited.
The key is that Li Yi's micro-movie is, so to speak, ready-made, which is completely different from specifically asking a famous director to make a micro-movie.
Zhuo Yixiong has no intention of getting to the bottom of it.
He also felt that this might be a good opportunity.
After all, Li Yi was originally going to shoot this short film. Once it was shot, he also needed to find a platform to display it. If he wanted to warm up "Mom Love Me Again", he also needed to buy some promotional resources.
.
But if you cooperate with Penguin Video’s micro-film competition, not only will you not need to find promotional resources yourself, but you will also be able to replace some of Penguin Video’s promotional resources.
Zhuo Yixiong immediately felt that something was wrong!
But he definitely can't make a decision on this matter.
"I can't make a decision on this matter. I'll ask Director Li again after filming this scene," Zhuo Yixiong said to Li Wen.
"Thank you, Director Zhuo!" Li Wen said quickly.
"Well, Director Zhuo, how about I report this matter to our editor-in-chief now? At that time, let the people from Penguin Video come and talk to Director Li?" Li Wen thought that it would be a long night and a dream, so he had to report it as soon as possible.
.
"Okay!" Zhuo Yixiong thought for a while and felt that if this matter really needs to be done, it is indeed not something that a young reporter like Li Wen can decide, so he still needs to find someone who really has the power to make the decision to talk about it immediately.
Nodded.
......
Penguin Video, the general manager of the Penguin Cup Micro Film Competition, Yan Wenwei looked at the list in front of him and had a headache.
"Advertising short film, advertising short film, and advertising short film. We are showing the works of famous directors in the micro film competition, not advertising works! Don't tell me there is nothing else but these?"
Before the concept of micro-movies appeared, many foreign advertising blockbusters already had such prototypes.
Many domestic manufacturers have also begun to invite some directors to shoot related micro-film advertising short films.
But Yan Wenwei is very dissatisfied with this, because if all these works are really selected, then this first Penguin Cup Micro Film Competition will probably become a joke.
Although many of these advertising short films are indeed produced by "famous directors", the key point is that advertising is still advertising!
"We have contacted the director, Wu Junming, Tang Lu, Fang Guolin and other directors one by one, but they are not interested at all. They either say that they are not available, or they directly express that they are not interested. Unless we are willing to pay a big price, otherwise
...After all, even if they film movies, they usually shoot big dramas. They rarely shoot micro-movies specifically, and it's not that good..." An Xiaojuan said with a helpless look.
Speaking of big money, many people may think, Penguin Video, such a big company spends billions of dollars every year, how can it have no money?
But the fact is that the funds for this project can be said to be a carrot and a pit, and there is no such budget at all!
The biggest problem with this issue is that these directors, after all, make theatrical movies. If anyone happens to have a micro-film on hand, that would be easy, but the problem is that this kind of thing simply does not exist. p>
At this moment, An Xiaojuan's cell phone rang.
"You answer the phone first!" Yan Wenwei waved his hand and asked An Xiaojuan to answer the phone first.
After answering the phone, An Xiaojuan said to Yan Wenwei with a happy face: "Director, Chief Editor Yu from Penguin Entertainment just told me that Director Li Yi, the director of "The Gift of Room No. 7", is filming "Mom Again"
"Love Me Once" movie, and one of their reporters went to visit the team and unexpectedly learned the news that something happened to the director Li Yi, which gave him the inspiration for a short film, which will be shot soon.
..."
"Li Yi? Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and get in touch!" Yan Wenwei said urgently after hearing this.
"Then, the conditions for cooperation..." An Xiaojuan hesitated and asked.
"Isn't he filming "Mom Love Me Again"? As long as he is willing to hand over the micro-film to our platform, we can replace some publicity resources for him." Yan Wenwei thought for a while and said.
It is indeed impossible to provide much money, but in terms of resources, it can be tilted.
Although Li Yi is not as famous as directors like Wu Junming, he is still considered a well-known young director.
He is quite qualified to be called a famous director.
The shortest man can win the general. Another one, Yan Wenwei has great ambitions for the Penguin Cup Micro Film Competition, so it can be regarded as buying horse bones for thousands of dollars.
He is already thinking that when the time comes, he will be given more resources to give Li Yi’s short film a strong push.
Let those big directors also see the benefits of cooperation.
When the effect is achieved, I think it will be smoother when we hold the Penguin Cup Micro Film Contest again.
On the other side, Li Yi was also a little surprised after hearing Li Wen's introduction.
What Li Yi didn't expect was that Penguin Video seemed to attach great importance to his short film and sent someone over to negotiate the next day.
The negotiation process was very smooth.
First of all, Li Yi's short film was an unexpected product. When he made it, he definitely had to find a platform to broadcast it. Now that he can use this short film, Penguin Video takes the initiative to help promote it without spending money, and he also replaced some of his own
Of course, he would not refuse such a good thing as promotional resources for his movie.
As for Penguin Video, they just need thousands of dollars to buy horse bones, and they just need Li Yi's short film to show other directors.
It can be said that the two parties hit it off immediately.
All I can say is that it’s better to arrive early than to arrive late!
