Be a Movie Star in a Two-dimensional World

Do you still remember, in addition to making movies, Ah Xu also has a job hosting Mancai shows in his main job.

And under the TV station of his same show, there is a variety show called "Who's the Big Star?" The star interactive talk show urgently needs someone to act on his behalf. After watching Su Bad's performance and knowing his situation, Ah Xu Introduced the job to Su bad.

The job he needs to do is to act as the host's assistant in this show, and act as the little dinosaur Agong as the mascot.

Friends who have watched the talk show should know something. The nature of this show is to invite famous star entertainers to interact with the host in front of a bunch of audience and cameras under the stage.

Different from other variety shows that are mostly playful, there are more chat and interviews in the talk show. Of course, this also requires a certain amount of talent performances.

For the program group, inviting popular stars can continue to increase the attention of the program, and stars can also take the opportunity to increase their exposure, and they can also promote their latest albums or movies at that time, which can be said to be a win-win situation.

And Su Bad's role in this show is to hand over topic boards, props, and sometimes to entertain the audience.If it can cause laughter, it reflects his value.

what?

You say it has nothing to do with filming and being an actor?

Maybe so.

But first, the salary for acting as a mascot is not low, and he only needs to work one day a week, which is what Su Hao desperately needs.

Although you can still go to the construction site for part-time work, after all, Su Huai has a good relationship with there.But when Ah Xu introduced this job to him that time, he said some words that touched him: "I'm not discriminating, what's wrong with saying you go to move bricks, after all, 360 lines, no one line is really better than the other A party is expensive or something. But if you really want to be an actor, I advise you not to spend too much time on irrelevant things."

On the night the "Snow Maiden" crew was finished, Haruhi invited all the cast and crew to go to Adefang for a barbecue.

In order to avoid Tsuruya, who was more enthusiastic and unrestrained after being slightly drunk, and because of A Xu's invitation, the two ran out to a nearby park to take a breath during the dinner—or in the middle of the banquet.

And the topic, naturally, also talked about invitations and work.

A Xu leaned on the horizontal bar in the park and lit a cigarette, his face was a little red. He originally wanted to give it to Su Da, but when he remembered that the other party didn't smoke, he took it back.After a while, looking at the uncle and aunt who were dancing square dancing under the street light, he said, "Bad boy, do you know why the rambunctious can't be a big star?"

Su Bai's mouth could not help overflowing bitterness.

Because of this, he really has the right to speak.

He has been in this industry for so many years, and the most he has done is these three words, and even pleaded again and again for a few more shots.

But knowing what Ah Xu had experienced, he didn't ask this to make things difficult for him. Seeing that Su was speechless, he used a cigarette with a red butt to go to the ground, and said the answer himself: "Because there is no chance ."

Some people will find it very strange, isn't it just to be familiar with the director and have a chance to be discovered one day?

But the fact is just the opposite, because no matter how you act or what your appearance is, the director will never use an actor who does not play tricks when casting a role, and he will not give you a chance from the beginning.

Not to mention the protagonist.

As for the supporting roles, they are also those who have brokerage companies and actor certificates. Some people may not understand. Isn't the price of playing a trick lower? They have been playing tricks for so many years. Is the kid stronger?

But the rules are like this, the role with a name and a surname belongs to him, and you can only play the role.

There are too many involved here, and I can only say that the director is only a member of this big environment and ecological chain.

It is only occasionally that there are two or three lines in the play, and one or two scenes from the side may be a chance. But think about it carefully, can this really be considered an opportunity?

It is impossible for the audience to remember you because of one or two scenes and lines. At most, it will make you an extra one or two hundred yuan after work is over.

So anyone who has been in this circle for a long time knows that—

play a small role?

can.

Especially for those newcomers who have just entered this circle and still harbor unrealistic ideas, running around in the mud and blood can help you to recognize the reality more clearly.

But has been running tricks.

That's it.

This will become a job for you, and it will become a mark of your life. It is no different from moving bricks with you, working in a convenience store, or going to work.

You can get money to support your family from it, which is easier to get than some hard work, but in what you harvest, there is always one thing missing - that is the chance to rise.

How far is forever?

That means it is impossible until the universe is destroyed.

This is what A Xu said to Su Bad: "Don't be distracted elsewhere, seize every opportunity and climb up."

Taking over this job, although it is a variety show, it is extremely hard to wear such a thick and sultry puppet costume on a hot day, and the key is not to show your face in the camera.But in addition to earning the necessary funds for Su Bad, it allows Su Bad to get in touch with people in this circle, not only those program directors, staff, hosts and investors, but also those who are invited. Guests.

Although there is still a long way to go to become an actor.

However, now he has finally touched the edge and officially set foot on the starting line.

"Okay, all preparations, there are 10 seconds left to start the broadcast, countdown!"

under the light.

Under the signal of the TV director sitting under the stage, the venue began to time, and the dark camera also followed the lens and aimed at the stage.

Su Hua, who was wearing the little dinosaur Agung puppet costume, was also working hard today.

"Welcome to Who's the Big Star every Tuesday, yay!!!"

——Of course, the mascot is a goblin and can't speak, so he shouted along with the guests and the host while holding the topic board.

Chapter 87

Filmmaking is fun.

For example, "Avatar" only took three years to shoot, which did not include the ten-year conception and preparation stage of the main creator, but there are also films that took only 5 days to prepare and 18 days to shoot, and all the actors did not The rehearsals of "Chainsaw" proved that not all low-budget, short-run films are rubbish.

Both films are famous in the history of cinema.

It can be seen that although the film is slow and meticulous, it is not as time-consuming and laborious as imagined.

The point is, a playful, intense script.

A director who can turn script words into imaginative shots and put them on the screen.

And a group of actors who can hold up to the role.

There is no shortage of these "Snow Maiden", or in other words, it has invested more than other films in the same period, and made it more carefully.

Friends who know a little about this should know.

The film is roughly divided into three steps: pre-planning, mid-shooting and post-production.

Not to mention earlier.

Mid-term shooting is the top priority, and it almost determines where the lowest limit of a work is.

It's like playing the Cairo game. In the initial state, no matter how hard you cultivate and think about the combination of themes, the results will not be satisfactory, but in the later stage of the game, when you have enough funds to hire actors with high reputation and high quality, A director with strong business ability, even if he shoots a script that is not good enough, then the work will not be bad no matter how bad it is.

After all, the ability value is there.

And the crew of "Snow Maiden" has such an IMBA configuration.

Don't look at the fact that Haruhi didn't seem to spend much money when he formed the team.

That's because the person she found either offered a friendship price or didn't spend a penny at all.

But thinking about the popularity that has been rolled up on the Internet before, it is not because of the fact that there are Haruhi Suzumiya, Ryoko Asakura, and Yukino Yukinoshita, the once-hot, or now popular stars, who have achieved the current status of Lian Dong. Ying also wanted to take advantage of the situation to steal a piece of the pie.

Among them, Haruhi, who has not made a film for a long time, for the first time after "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya", can be pressed down on the stage. She has good acting skills and enough topicality. She is the darling of the media , if it wasn't for the Suzumiya family protecting her too well, I'm afraid there would be more than ten times more news about her now.Now coupled with the various friendships that have been pulled into the crew because of her relationship, this "Snow Maiden" can fully afford the big production of the star lineup.

And the N amount of money saved was not deducted, and it was all used by her to make the later part of the show.

We often hear people say how much a blockbuster cost.

But in fact this is a very fictitious number.

In addition to the fact that the producer will definitely increase the cost for publicity, there is also a large part of it as the director and actor's own remuneration, as well as publicity and business expenses.

Although these expenses are unavoidable, if a major production pays too much on the remuneration of the director and actors, it is difficult to say how much money is really allocated to the production of the film.

Some films with hundreds of millions of publicity may end up spending only a few million in the later stages of the film, so the so-called big production is actually just a big bad film made by a small workshop.

After all, everyone knows that you get what you pay for.

Cost-effectiveness is one thing, but you can't expect to find a random erhu player on the street to make sound effects compared to other people's regular symphony orchestras.Please imagine, when the Alliance and the Horde in Warcraft faced off against the magnificent battlefield of the Burning Legion, and suddenly came the voice of Erquan Yingyue, the soul-stirring epic, the heroic warriors who killed the enemy, I am afraid all of them will become vents. An angry tea party.

And Haruhi has spared no expense in this regard.

According to her original intention, the theme song and interlude of this film were intended to be sung by the singer of the times, Qi Qi.

It's that simple.

For example, if you record a song, ask Faye Wong to sing it and ask a female star from the draft to sing, it is definitely not the same price.

But Haruhi didn't care, but unfortunately it backfired. The manager of Yuqi refused the request on the grounds that she was unwell. In the end, he found the song LIA, who sang the theme song of KEY's previous work "Air". Give voice.

It's a compromise, but don't think it's the end of it.

The singer is not fake, but the lyrics and music must be there.

Haruhi didn't know if she had learned the lessons of the previous Toei copyright. This time, she not only directly contacted KEY, which is a game company, and bought their game soundtrack, but also hired their musicians specially for the new version of "Snow". girl" wrote a new theme song.

It took almost a week from lyrics and music to recording. On the other hand, the sound effects of the film were handed over to L.Nex, a company specializing in film and television soundtracks, and the special effects were outsourced to two special effects companies, Laser and D-MAN.

These three companies are all professional film production companies. In the past, they were active behind the scenes of many blockbusters. Since they are professional, it is conceivable that the fees will definitely not be low.

At this point, everyone who knows about this project will be wondering what Haruhito is?

If the film is completed, it can be released in major theaters and compete for the box office of the National Day file, then there is no problem at all.But now this movie is doomed to miss the big screen, and Haruhi is still tossing like this, everyone just thinks that Haruhi can't swallow in one breath, and insists on finishing this project with a beginning and an end.

No one could fathom the eldest lady's mind.

It was almost August 8, when the summer vacation was about to end, that Kazuki handed over the pressed master film to Haruhi.

On that day, no one escorted me.

There was only Haruhi in the huge screening room, and he sat there for an afternoon.

Taking a film for about 100 minutes, no one knows how many times she watched it in it, but when she came out, everyone present did hear praises like "good job" from her mouth.

It seems that the Japanese people of Haru Suzumiya are still very satisfied with the results of this film.

"It's been a lot of hard work for everyone during this time. The film "Snow Maiden" has officially finished production as of today. From tomorrow, everyone can come here without having to work hard. As for the agreed fee, it will be paid by Kazuki. on your account."

What to say.

There is a sigh of relief, but at the same time, there is some feeling of reluctance.

Fortunately, most of the people who stayed here to work have been in this industry for a long time, and they are used to seeing this kind of splitting and closing scenes, so their emotions are not strong. After saying hello to Haruhi, they began to neatly Pack up your things.

To say that the only thing that could not be relieved was Hu Su, who was reluctant to be drawn closer at the beginning.
