Others don't know how, but Qin Xiaobao personally felt quite happy during his time on the set.
Although we encounter new problems every day and have different situations every day.
When things go smoothly, the shot passes by seconds, and I don’t want to save one shot. I feel that even if I take a few more shots, the effect will not be better.
When things go wrong, the actors are out of shape, the equipment makes trouble, and it becomes uncomfortable no matter how you shoot.
Qin Xiaobao has been happy, depressed, angry, helpless...
This is life, this is work, this is daily life!
Working in a large production crew, he learned one thing: leave all the negative emotions behind yesterday, go to sleep, and wake up to a new day.
In this way, more than 20 days passed, and the crew completed all filming work in Huairou, Beijing.
It's much slower than expected. According to Qin Xiaobao's original schedule, such a small scene will probably be filmed in ten days.
There are many reasons. In addition to striving for perfection, the main reason is that there is too much tedious preparation work. The crew goes back and forth every day, preparing props, makeup, etc., and the time at night is not used, so the progress is naturally slow.
But it's still acceptable and it's within the plan.
After the filming, a dinner party was arranged, and almost all the crew were not allowed to drink while working.
Everyone, who had been holding back for a long time, had a good time drinking and relaxing.
Next, we have to go to Guangdong. The next phase of filming will take a few days to prepare, and most of the crew will have a few days off.
Anyway, I have been working continuously for nearly a month and I need to take a break.
Qin Xiaobao was not so lucky, so he returned to the Magic City to stay for one night and went to school the next day.
It was not in class, the dean of the department personally called him. It was not a business matter, but a request for help.
The magic show is about to have a holiday. My students are filming a big production, which is a good learning opportunity. I would like to talk to Qin Xiaobao and see if I can bring some students into the group study.
Naturally, he would not refuse such a request, which not only owed the school a personal favor, but also caused someone to work for nothing, so it was all profit.
I came to school to explain the situation.
Some people have never been in a group and imagine everything to be wonderful.
His mission is to break these unrealistic illusions and give students a vaccination.
You can come to the crew, okay!
There is no salary, food and accommodation are included, no matter what major you study, you just come here to do odd jobs, you are just like a little brother.
Moreover, today we can sit in the classroom and communicate face to face. When we enter the set, although we are classmates, there is no chance to chat with me at work.
You will feel hard, wronged and tired.
All are normal.
There's no need to cry to me, because it's useless.
I won't take special care of any of you.
So, if you think about it, you must think it over carefully. There is still time to think about it. If you sign up, pass, and finally leave in despair, I believe it will be embarrassing to go back to school.
What he said was very straightforward and disrespectful, which made some young people look unhappy.
The department head standing next to him was very supportive of Qin Xiaobao's way of communicating.
College students are all in school, they are the proud sons of heaven, they have not experienced any troubles, and they have no so-called social experience.
The crew is also a microcosm of society, and it is normal to be bullied in it.
Students from prestigious universities go to the set to be taught by masters who may not have graduated from elementary school. They help with various equipment and work hard for more than ten hours a day. Not everyone can adapt.
He even felt that what Qin Xiaobao said was not serious enough or scary enough.
For the children in front of us, what they are about to experience will be something they will have to do for many years to come.
There will always be a few people like Qin Xiaobao who can become famous in one fell swoop.
People who are above the 9th level still have to work hard on the crew step by step, and even if you persevere, you may not have the opportunity to shoot alone.
So, the director stood up and added ten minutes.
In the final result, there were twenty-seven people who signed up, but only fifteen were actually willing to go, including seven people from the directing department. One of them had family matters and wanted to participate, but had no choice.
It's pretty good. Everyone has different ideas. It's up to you whether you want to come or not.
Perhaps because he was used to being a director, Qin Xiaobao found that he liked preaching more and more.
While chatting alone with these fifteen classmates, he shared Wang Bingbing's story.
The crew filmed in Beijing for nearly a month. Wang Bingbing did not have a single scene from beginning to end, but she never left.
The actors started filming, and she watched from the side. During other preparation times, she took the script and read it.
I have asked myself, how good would it be to read a script in a hotel, where you can lie down for a while when you are tired, without being exposed to the wind and sun outside?
The young lady answered very seriously.
I graduated from the Broadcasting Department, but my acting skills are lacking. But given such a good opportunity, and meeting so many good teachers performing live in front of me, it would be a shame not to watch it. I can’t miss this good opportunity.
Moreover, my character is a maid, and her skin color is too fair now. She is just in time to bask in the sun, which fits the character.
Qin Xiaobao saw that everyone was not too impressed and explained.
The role played by Wang Bingbing is an insignificant role in the entire drama. The total filming took about 20 days.
The students were silent.
Qin Xiaobao doesn't care whether he can listen to it or not. He just thinks that it is really difficult for everyone to be in the same class. It is really difficult to join a crew that invested 300 million yuan and work with so many outstanding actors and staff during college.
After settling the school affairs, he went to Hangzhou without stopping.
Although he changed his career as a director and has fewer endorsements, he still has brand cooperation.
This time I came here to take advertising and promotional photos for new products.
Some things will really make you feel rusty if you don't do them often.
Qin Xiaobao is becoming more and more proficient in teaching people to act in front of the camera, but he is much more unfamiliar with posing. The work that could be completed in half a day in the past has been delayed a lot.
It doesn't matter much, the crew had five days off, so they had plenty of time, but they couldn't have a good rest.
I guess Leslie Cheung was too bored to do anything. He had been staying in Xiangjiang, which is so close to Guangdong, but he didn't want to do it.
I flew over two days in advance to meet Qin Xiaobao for dinner.
After meeting, Qin Xiaobao couldn't stop laughing.
At the start-up ceremony, the two met for the last time. At that time, the elder brother weighed about 130 pounds.
Qin Xiaobao said, brother, your body shape is still not up to standard.
Huang Shilang was a local emperor who had money, food and drink. In that era, people had to be fat to be considered lucky.
Before leaving, my brother said something like, "Look at it."
As a result, during this meeting, my whole body looked bigger, especially my face and neck, which were all full of flesh.
After asking, it was already 80 kilograms.
For actors, among the director's various requirements, gaining weight is undoubtedly the easiest task, as long as they eat.
Like six-pack abs, waistcoat lines, losing weight is the real torture.
My brother gave up exercise completely this month and ate lunch one day, which was all high-calorie food, and then he became what he is now.
Qin Xiaobao hurriedly took a few photos as a souvenir.
