Chapter 783: Director Dogs short film, Ye Qing is back
Li Yi decided to make a short film before the official filming of "Changjin Lake" started.
It’s been a long time since I’ve made a short film, and to be honest, Li Yi really misses it.
Thinking back then, it can be said that what he was really praised for as a tear-jerking director was not "The Gift from Room 7" or the later "Mom Loved Me Once", but rather his first short film "Deal"!
Starting from "Deal" and later "Mom Love Me Again", Li Yi really established this name.
As for the dog director, well, let’s not mention it!
Making a short film is not as troublesome as making a movie, and the short film Li Yi wants to make is actually not complicated, but Li Yi himself likes it very much.
Speaking of which, Li Yi often made short films in his early years, but now he is too famous and his status is too high. As a result, almost no one will ask him to make short films anymore.
After all, no matter how good a short film is, it cannot be compared with a feature film.
As for advertising manufacturers, if they want to hire Li Yi, it's not that they can't afford the price. There are many big players, but the most important thing is that even if they can afford it, Li Yi must be willing to take it.
To put it bluntly, as long as Li Yi is willing to take over, there are many manufacturers who are not short of money and are willing to spend money. After all, Li Yi's name alone is worth their money.
Back to business.
Back to the short film, speaking of the short film Li Yi recalled, in fact, to a certain extent, it can also be grafted onto the movie "Changjin Lake"*, because although the historical background time is different, because they are both
It has something to do with the icy and snowy environment.
And what about "Changjin Lake"?
What can you say is the most memorable thing for everyone?
It’s the environment!
It is said deliberately that this battle is definitely the battle with the most severe natural environment.
However, Li Yi didn't do this because it seemed too deliberate.
Li Yi didn't think about gaining anything from this short film, it was purely because he remembered it, and he himself liked this short film very much.
So I thought I’m not that busy right now, so I’ll just shoot this short film first.
Li Yi directly called the assistant director and some behind-the-scenes staff of "Changjin Lake". It was considered a small test of his skills.
Yan Chunming is one of the assistant directors recommended by Zhao Guangming.
Unlike other directors, Yan Chunming is not a young director, but an experienced director who has made many war films with main themes.
Yan Chunming didn't think there was anything wrong with being the assistant director for Li Yi. After all, Li Yi was indeed good at making movies, and his status was there.
However, Yan Chunming is a more serious and old-fashioned person in private.
He is meticulous in what he does, but he has his own unique style in large-scale war scenes.
Yan Chunming was a little unhappy when he received a call from Li Yi asking him to put down his work and come to help shoot a short film.
Without him, there are several assistant directors on the crew, including three generations of old, middle-aged and young people.
In the end, Li Yi asked him to be the assistant director and make a micro-movie, which made Lao Yan very unhappy.
Although people are here, there are not many smiles on their faces, just "I am unhappy" is written on their faces...
Li Yi asked Yan Chunming to help him with his micro-movie because of the subject matter of the micro-movie.
This kind of film would certainly not be impossible if Zhuo Yixiong made it, but Li Yi felt that an old party member like Yan Chunming would be more suitable.
"Director Li, you said you were going to make a short film, why would you want me to be an old guy? You don't lack assistant directors in this area." Yan Chunming has only shot the main theme in his whole life. It can be said that he is a true red heart that always goes to the party.
people.
If you ask him to make entertainment films, he will naturally not be happy.
"Because I think Director Yan will like this short film. Of course, if Director Yan doesn't like it, I can replace it." Li Yi said with a smile.
Sometimes, people are like this. The more Li Yi said this, the more curious Yan Chunming became.
Although Li Yi has a great status in the domestic film industry, people may not really take an old director like Yan Chunming seriously. If it weren't for the fact that Li Yi was filming a war blockbuster with the theme of "Changjin Lake" this time, and
Zhao Guangming personally invited him. Yan Chunming really may not agree.
Of course, Yan Chunming originally liked Li Yi quite a lot, because among the movies Li Yi made were movies with main themes such as "Garland Under the Mountain". Yan Chunming himself also made movies with main themes. He actually admired Li Yi. His
Main theme movies are old-school themes, and they often don't do well at the box office.
But this time, Li Yi suddenly pulled him over and said that he wanted to make a short film and that he would like the short film. On the contrary, it aroused Yan Chunming's curiosity.
"Director Yan, why don't you read the script first?" Li Yi said with a smile, but he didn't care about Yan Chunming's attitude.
"This is what you said. If I don't like it, just find someone else." Yan Chunming looked at Li Yi and said.
"Okay, read the script first, read the script first!" Li Yi smiled and pushed the script in front of Mr. Yan Chunming.
Yan Chunming took it over suspiciously and curiously.
First I took a look at the title of the cover.
"Presence"?
This title really doesn't tell much.
He looked up at Li Yi* in confusion, but Li Yi was sitting there leisurely, seemingly confident, which made Yan Chunming even more curious.
Is this kid so sure that he will like this script?
But when I opened the script and started reading, the first half of the plot made Mr. Yan Chunming frown.
Because he is a bit baffled.
He couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Li Yi, only to find that Li Yi was in a state of mind and was actually distracted.
Yan Chunming was still a little disappointed, mainly because of the script, because the first half was so mysterious and confusing that he felt like he was being fooled.
But when she turned to the second page, Yan Chunming's eyes suddenly widened.
He looked very slowly, very slowly, and his eyes turned red at some point.
At the end, Yan Chunming burst into tears, and the hand holding the script started to tremble.
He was extremely excited. Although this was only a short story, he really liked it very much.
At this moment, he no longer felt unhappy at all. Instead, he sincerely admired Li Yi.
Everyone who has a great reputation says that Li Yi is the king of short films. He often has fantastic ideas. He didn't pay much attention to them before, but now, he really refuses to accept them.
"You brat, you're serious!" When Yan Chunming raised his head to look at Li Yi, his whole attitude changed completely.
No matter how I look at Li Yi, I like it.
"Director Yan, this short film won't kill you, right?" Li Yi said with a smile.
"What are you talking about? You kid, that's it. I'll go work for you right now!" Yan Chunming nodded and Li Yidao!
Li Yi could naturally feel the change in Yan Chunming's attitude towards him. This was one of his intentions of not looking for anyone else but Yan Chunming to "overdo the talent and underuse it".
