I became famous after I didn't grow tall

"Click!"

With this click, the actors present were filled with emotions.

"Thank you for your hard work during this period, and now I officially announce that our movie is officially finished!"

On January 16, all filming for Wei Lan's first movie in this world was completed and the post-production phase officially entered.

The next step is Wei Lan's solo and coordinated work, including editing and soundtrack.

Although due to the limitations of the director's machine, other people's brainwave consciousness can no longer have permission to control the holographic world before exporting a complete holographic film and television work, so this part of the work requires the director to personally operate it. No, this does not mean that it is not possible. Additional staff required.

For example, a job that requires professional skills such as soundtrack cannot be completed by the director alone.

The soundtrack can be generated by the director's consciousness in the director's machine, as long as it is memorized outside. Wei Lan has ideas and consciousness can create them, but because she is not a music major, the soundtrack she created cannot fully satisfy her aesthetics. Interesting.

Wei Lan was known as an all-around genius in his previous life, and it was not like one person could do all the work if he was a proficient person.

She is a born director, guided by the creativity of the crew. She has seen too many scenes in dreams since she was a child. Her aesthetic level is extremely high. During the entire filming process, she clearly knows what beautiful things are and can communicate them. Professionals create it.

So far, this movie has been shot. Except for the necessary data flow expenses, no human resources or expenses beyond the budget have been used. The total investment is 8 million, and now there is still about 1 million left.

This was because Wei Lan was lucky and basically only used the real "cost" for actors' remuneration and external production budget.

Originally, the more than one million used for promotional expenses was very reluctant, but Wei Lan still needed to get a good enough soundtrack.

During this period, Wei Lan began to look for film scorers. In this regard, relying on Wei's backing had a huge advantage. Not to mention other things, the connections alone were unmatched by other small companies. He was almost a well-known professional scorer in the circle. Wei's public relations department has contact information, or can get contact information.

During this period, Wei Lan listened to a lot of demos by musicians that Wei had preserved, and surprisingly found that the composers whose skills she thought could match her own movies were all industry giants, and their selling prices were at least one million.

It is impossible to lower standards, not even in this lifetime.

While editing the movie, Wei Lan also visited major original music websites, hoping to find a musician with a suitable style, but luckily he missed it.

It's a pity that it's been like this for a week and I still have no clue...

Just when Wei Lan was hesitating whether to seek additional investment from Wei Mingjie, luck once again came to her in an unexpected way.

Speaking of the origin of all this, I still have to thank Zhou Wei and director Peng Haobo who stole the rights to shoot the sequel to "Swordsman".

The model of film and television reviews has been advancing with the times. From the initial mouthpiece completely controlled by major traditional media, to the current Internet era, various film review websites, forums, and online media. With the rise of video websites, new media video There is also a new mode for film review output.

‘Cang Haixiao’ is a big self-media blogger with a professional film review orientation.

After all the contents of the "Sword and Sword Five" episode were released, a video he produced ranked first in the film and television section of Station D, and it was also posted on Weibo and received more than 100,000 retweets.

Video title: ‘Why has the reputation of “Sword 5” plummeted? How is it different compared to “Sword 4”? ’

After Cang Haixiao roughly explained the plots of the two works, he began a comparative analysis.

"Obviously compared to Sword 4, Sword 5 adds a lot of suspense elements... I checked the director of the sequel, Peng Haobo. His past works are suspense-themed. This director may want to create his own style. , so adding this element failed for two reasons.”

"One is that the suspense element is not outstanding. As a sequel, Sword and Sword Five wants to continue the reverse comedy style of the previous part. The combination of multiple elements leads to unclear priorities, and the integration is not done well."

"The second reason is that the driver core is different... The reason why I feel that the characters in Sword Five have become 'stupid' is because in order to create a suspense effect, the suspense set up by the director can only be expressed through the characters, showing a The deputy owner was running around because of a mystery."

"In contrast, the actions of the characters in Sword and Sword 4 have their own behavioral logic. All conflicts and funny elements are created by coincidence. This kind of coincidence is very bad in a suspense mystery film, but Sword and Sword 4 The fourth is comedy. This coincidence brings a sense of absurdity to the drama, which in turn deepens the comedy effect of the drama.”

"...One is that the theme and expression techniques are in conflict with each other, and the other is that they complement each other. It goes without saying who can bring better film and television effects."

After analyzing the core differences in the story, Cang Haixiao focused his analysis on the Four of Swords.

"The director and screenwriter played a crucial role in this. I specifically checked the director and screenwriter of this TV series and found that they are both the same person, and the director named Wei Lan seems to be a newcomer. There has been no one before. For any film and television work, this surprises me, because from the perspective of half of me as a film critic, this director and screenwriter has a very good grasp of the TV series, whether it is the plot structure mentioned before, as well as the beautiful lens language, Show off skills everywhere in the series.”

Speaking of this, Cang Haixiao said with appreciation and praise in his tone: "Yes, I feel that the director is showing off his skills. The most obvious one is in the finale of the episode. The long shot of the head and the movement of the angle of view highlighted the strength of Fang's forces. The action situation, as well as the first-person perspective that is still fresh in my memory, and the thrilling decisive battle between Jiang Long and An Eleven at the end, the director's perspective is very powerful and novel, and the distance and nearness, fast and slow are perfectly combined. "

"In addition, another issue that is probably more concerning is the mystery of the life and death of Jiang Long and Dark Eleven."

In this section, Canghaixiao played the video version of the original film, from the perspective of the two people diving down from the cliff, and then the screen paused at the bottom of the cliff.

Cang Haixiao circled the human bones at the bottom of the cliff in the picture with a red frame: "Look here, there are two human bones, and there are weapons such as knives and swords next to them, which shows that the corpses are also Jianghu people, and there are Two bodies.”

"The director will not set up useless props and scenes for no reason. Such an obvious shot of prediction has fully expressed the final fate of Jiang Long and Dark Eleven, so..." At this point, Canghaixiao chuckled: "Seeing this, we can actually see that after changing the director, the plot of the fourth film was not really followed."

"Through a plot hint at the end of the fourth part, we can actually know that the 'interface' left by director Wei Lan in the sequel is not in the original protagonist, but in the body of Lu Anning's son who really belongs to the Mysterious Art of Destiny. , maybe, if the same director shoots this sequel, "Sword 5" may have a different story..."

At the end of the video, Cang Haixiao specially cueed Wei Lan, obviously admiring and curious about her.

"The director and screenwriter of "Sword 4" is this——" Wei Lan's Weibo homepage appeared in the video, but apart from Huang V, who represented his identity, there was only one piece of information that was automatically released by the system when logging into Weibo.

"It's a pity that director Wei Lan is very mysterious. I am personally looking forward to her next work."

Because this video was also posted on Weibo, Wei Lan suddenly received a lot of attention and received feedback from the secretary of Wei's public relations department.

"Director Wei, his Weibo suddenly gained a lot of fans. I saw it was recommended by a big blogger."

As the publicity period approached, Wei Lan had a lot of contact with the public relations department. The secretary saw the news when she was summarizing the data every day, and told Wei Lan by the way.

After Wei Lan learned about it, she watched the video and suddenly an idea came to her. She forwarded the video directly and created a new movie option under her personal works on Weibo. The movie title was "Not yet announced". ', a synopsis reads 'different science fiction'.

‘The new movie is being shot and produced, asking the boss to invest ~ [The villain kneels down]’, followed by the work page.

Of course Wei Lan does not need additional investment. The essence of this move is to promote the movie. Of course, if there is really a stupid boss with a lot of money who is willing to invest after reading this movie without a synopsis, she will not Will refuse...

However, as Wei Lan's reply was forwarded, Canghaixiao received it and quickly forwarded a reply saying 'Looking forward to your work'.

The effect of this interaction was very good. Because of the original audience love of Sword IV and the dramatic collapse of Sword V, the page of Wei Lan's work, which did not even have a published movie title, soon had thousands of comments. Looking forward to the release's vote.

Cang Haixiao's unexpected move gave Wei Lan a new idea of ​​​​saving the country, and she decided to engage in romance and publicity herself.

Now that you save on publicity fees, don't you have the money to hire an expensive soundtrack artist? ——Wei·Financial Manager·Lan said.
