"Have you ever shot a similar promotional video before?"
"No!"
"Do you know what kind of scene you want to show?"
"have no idea!"
"Do you have a plan in mind?"
"No!"
Brother, Wang Bingbing, and Xiangyang Artist all expressed their conviction after asking a question, "Brother, please stop messing around."
We don't deny that you are talented, but it was too sudden, and the whole one-three has no product.
I don’t know anything, I don’t have any plan.
The three words "Qin Xiaobao" are worth a lot of money. If you agree like this, people will pay attention to whatever the film is made.
If it's good, then it's easy to say, but if people don't like it, there will be a lot of side effects.
Under the circumstances at that time, they wouldn't say anything if you refused directly. Since you are specialized in the art, you can just find any excuse.
It's better for you, you didn't even ask for the request and agreed without saying a word. You really have your Qin Xiaobao.
"Then don't I want to help?"
The three of you were helpless, and you were wronged.
"What are you going to do next?" Xiang Yang asked.
"Two steps. First, get familiar with Wuzhen and see if there are any suitable filming locations. Second, look at the previous promotional videos." Qin Xiaobao held out two fingers.
"Let's talk." Wang Bingbing stayed for a while and then ran out of time: "Brother Xiaobao, Director Li asked me to tell him. If you need any equipment, please tell him directly."
"Okay, you go ahead and get busy."
After seeing off his wife, there were only three people left in the house. The elder brother stood by the window smoking and watching the boat in the river. Xiang Yang was busy working on the computer, looking for the previous promotional video. Qin Xiaobao happily drank the milk cap that Wang Bingbing brought.
, add a lot of ice cubes, take a sip and feel cool.
"Brother, if you plan to go somewhere else, I will ask Xiaoming to follow you. He will arrive in the evening."
The elder brother turned his head and blew smoke out the window: "It doesn't matter, you are just filming me and watching, do you think you have to continue filming for a month?"
"No, I don't expect..." Qin Xiaobao gestured OK.
"Three days?" Xiang Yang asked.
"Three hours, it's not a micro-movie, it's just a few dozen seconds of video." Qin Xiaobao was full of confidence and changed places with the big dog.
Ignoring them, he started watching the video.
Xiangyang has found quite a comprehensive list. In addition to the ones issued by the Ministry of Public Security every year, there are also downloads from some provinces.
The average duration is about one minute, so I finished it quickly.
My brother sat next to me: "It's very passionate and boiling."
"Yeah," Qin Xiaobao felt the same way: "Basically all the films have the same style."
"Do you want to do the opposite?"
"Haha, let's go for a walk outside. Xiang Yang, give me the camera." Qin Xiaobao picked up his hat and walked out.
Wuzhen is actually not that big, with a journey of about two kilometers. The three of them directly chartered a cruise ship and went boating on the river, experiencing the feeling of the ancients that "the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are beautiful and beautiful, and the wind chimes in the houses are melodious."
"I want to compose a poem, but I don't have any ink in my mind. What a pity!" My brother was sitting in a boat enjoying the breeze, and he was in a very good mood.
Xiang Yang smiled on the side: "Wuzhen is more beautiful at night, and there are many taverns. Why don't you go and see them?"
"Okay." My brother didn't refuse: "But I won't be able to play if I go."
"That's true."
Qin Xiaobao stood on the side of the boat with his camera: "Xiang Yang went to ask around to see if there is such a private room by the window." He pointed to the small wooden house on the river bank.
"Now that I'm here, it would be a pity not to experience it."
"Okay, I'll ask when we get ashore." Since Xiangyang established the company, he drinks less and socializes more. He hasn't experienced the pure pleasure of drinking for a long time.
"How's it going? Do you have any inspiration?" my brother asked.
"The place is really beautiful. If you look for any place, you will feel like a small bridge and flowing water." Qin Xiaobao put his hands on his hips: "I have been curious. There are also normal residents in the scenic spot. They have to face an endless stream of tourists every day.
Will it bother you?"
"That's you!" The elder brother chuckled: "First of all, you have to have food and clothing, and then you will consider other issues. What do the tourists bring? Consumption, you can make money, you can make money easily at home, how can you think about the problem of whether it is annoying or not?
."
"Brother is right," Qin Xiaobao said with relief. He really didn't expect this: "Maybe the residents can sell some handicrafts, water, etc., and the income will be no worse than working."
"No, if you can open an inn, you don't have to worry about the source of customers and just make money."
"Maybe it's the legendary backer who eats the mountain."
There were not many tourists on the shore because we were filming and it was not a weekend.
Someone recognized the two people on the boat, and they waved politely.
I deliberately walked for an hour on the more than two kilometers of waterway. There were still second and third phases of scenic spots behind me, so I didn’t continue. It was not necessary. The main reason was that the weather was too hot and the sun was unbearable.
The elder brother didn't want to stay alone in the room, so he went to Qin Xiaobao's room to apply a facial mask and watch him paint.
After half an hour, Qin Xiaobao took a deep breath.
My brother held it in his hand: "Hey, your painting skills are really...beautiful. Are you sure you haven't learned it before?"
Qin Xiaobao shook his head: "I guess it's talent. I loved drawing when I was a child. I didn't expect that I could use it when I grew up."
"Why don't you write a script and just use these four shots?" My brother looked at him and put away the pen and paper.
"Yes," Qin Xiaobao wondered: "Isn't it enough?"
"At least the video is over a minute long. You think it's too empty."
"I can slow down twice as fast."
My brother was all laughed at: "There are four shots in total, how slow can you take them?"
"I read the requirements, and there was no time limit. I just wanted to show the spirit of the people's police and the people's friendship. Besides, Iron Blood has already been photographed and can't be filmed anymore. I don't have the confidence to do better. Let's give it a try.
."
"You are the director and you have the final say. Do you need my help?"
"No, I've already thought of the actor." Qin Xiaobao picked up the phone, found Director Zhong's number and broadcast it.
"Director Qin, hello, hello."
"Director Zhong, I have an idea."
"So fast!" Director Zhong was surprised and pleasantly surprised.
"It's okay, that's it. I plan to shoot on the stone bridge in the town, but I need to clear the place. Can you help me?"
"Of course, please tell me when the filming will take place and how long it will take."
"I won't cause any trouble to you. What I prefer is early in the morning, when the sun is just shining. I posted the information before and it's very beautiful." Qin Xiaobao still did his homework.
"That's good. There aren't many tourists in the morning."
"I estimate that the shooting will only take a few hours. If it goes well, it may not be certain. In addition, please find a younger and more handsome colleague to put on a uniform and come to my place for an audition."
"No problem. How about the guy who picked you up today? He's 1.87 meters tall and 23 years old."
Qin Xiaobao thought about it for a while and got an impression: "Okay, it's him."
"When is the most convenient time to go there?"
"Is it okay now?" Qin Xiaobao looked at the time, and it was four-thirty. It was completely in time: "Wait for me to notify you of the shooting time. You still need to prepare some things."
"Okay, okay, just wait a moment, we'll be there in five minutes."
"There's no need to be in such a hurry, take your time, I'll be waiting at the inn."
"okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiaobao called Wang Bingbing's assistant again to finalize two things.
First, borrow Wang Bingbing, she is the heroine in the promotional video.
Second, borrow a camera and a crane.
Director Li agreed simply and could make Qin Xiaobao owe a favor, which many people dream of.
