Big director

One of the makeup artists was named Xiao Ai, who retorted with a blushing face, "But, the camera takes makeup! So you have to make it as thick as possible, otherwise it won't work on the camera..."

"Am I talking about heavy makeup?" Zhu Zimo simply took a photo with the camera to show them, "I'm talking about ugly! Unnatural! Cheap! Messy! It doesn't meet the human design! It's not as good as I want Thousands of miles away! Do you know how to do movie makeup?"

Originally, Zhu Zimo was very talkative. When they came here, they chartered two buses and talked and laughed along the way. After all, they were young people, and the atmosphere was always relaxed.As a result, when the movie started, he became serious, and now he was forced to growl by this group of unprofessional makeup artists. After a few words, everyone on the set shrank their necks, especially those few The makeup artist was even more embarrassed and almost cried.

The camera has a socket connected to the computer, so the pictures taken are very clear. A few actors also moved over curiously to see the effect, and then, after looking at each other for a while, they all fell silent.

The makeup artists looked at it and thought it was not very good-looking, but according to the director's request, they had no better idea... But seeing Zhu Zimo's angry look, they didn't dare to stand still and block the eyes, and they all said They immediately regenerate the actors.

Zhu Zimo felt almost collapsed at this moment. He saw the bewilderment in these people's eyes, so he could only tell them not to leave, and talk about their understanding of the images of several characters. Communicate first before doing it, so as not to waste each other's time.

He actually visited the 24th century film studio - the real professional one, and he has seen all the processes.And those 'amateurs' like them, who find someone to set up a shelf by themselves, are more familiar.The core part is creativity, a good story, and then start-up capital, the rest is very simple, do you need actors?make up?clothing?props?A lot of professionals are waiting for you to choose.So being a director at that time was a very comfortable thing. It was like the mass production of machines in the form of an assembly line was fully mature, and all the parts were produced, so there was no need to worry about it. It's all alive!

In his original thinking, even if he travels back more than 300 years, the truth is still the same. The whole crew is set up, and each department performs its own duties, just like a big rumbling tank, crushing all the way, and any problems will be solved. won't be a problem...

As a result, there are make-up artists and props crews, and all the personnel are fully equipped, but really!of!very!No!Specialize!Industry!ah!

Now it's just ordinary makeup, if it's special effects makeup, I can't imagine it...

Of course, Zhu Zimo only found out later that if he had been a director in Hollywood, he would definitely not have to go through all these crazy things.The big film industry there has developed very maturely, and many people who do makeup, props, lighting, and action design can even be regarded as "family skills".People only focus on doing one thing all their lives, and they are all 'organized', because the market has matured, they all take their work as a career, and they can ensure that they can support them, and then there is a bright future. Lu Wuyou, coupled with interest, systematic and effective knowledge inheritance, and a fierce competition mechanism behind the supervision, will naturally be able to keep improving and develop a good craft.

Only with good soil can strong saplings grow.

Domestically it is different.

There are several reasons.

One is that the cake is too small, not to mention the low salary of these behind-the-scenes personnel, and there is no guarantee that there will always be work to do.So in fact, a lot of make-up, props and other staff are part-timers, like Xiao Ai and the others, occasionally follow the crew, and the rest of the time they go to the photo studio and bridal makeup to support their families.So Zhu Zimo really didn't wrong them, because they were amateurs in the first place!

The second is that the entire industry is not yet standardized. A major feature of the country is...the humane society, because everyone doesn't pay much attention to these behind-the-scenes workers, so, "Who is different?", "Do it for others It’s better to do it for your own people’, ‘For budget considerations, use whichever is cheaper’, ‘It’s about the same, isn’t this pretty good, what are you messing with’… These ideas are really not meant to be funny. In fact, maybe the director There is still a bit of a requirement for excellence, but investors basically don't care.

To put it bluntly, there are too many laymen who make movies these days.These people are either purely for making money, or use this shell to launder money, or they are simply lustful local tyrants who throw some money to make small stars. Some of the remaining real filmmakers have no money, so it’s not important to use it for these 'The budget of the behind-the-scenes personnel is very low, which can be ignored, and some of them are simply conceited. Just mess around with the image and so on. The important thing is to tell the story!Do you want to sensationalize so many useless things? !

Under such circumstances, many times, those who have real skills can’t compete with the idiots, so they either change careers in despair, or go abroad to develop, leaving a pile of half-bottles of water—this is the current domestic situation.

If you don't go deep into it, how can you comprehend it so thoroughly?It only took Zhu Zimo half a day to feel such a pain...

He communicated with several make-up artists for a long time, but they still didn't know what to look for, so he simply took a piece of paper and drew out the settings of several characters in a simple and clear manner. Just let them follow suit.

In the original world, if the director dared to do things like this, he would definitely offend the makeup artists severely, because it would be an insult to their abilities.The so-called art, who can accept being framed in a fixed grid?It's not just a child who just entered school, but also has to write a propositional composition!The established rule is that the director is responsible for briefly describing, what kind of feeling does the character need to give people?age?Profession?Beauty and ugliness?Are there any special features?Then the makeup artists will naturally design their own works according to the actor's image - if there is any dissatisfaction between the two parties, they can communicate and modify at any time.

In fact, this approach will indeed inspire more sparks and make the character's makeup effect better.

After all, there is a specialization in the art industry, and the director usually only has a rough outline of his own character. The makeup artist is always responsible for realizing them. The two sides confirm and question each other. It became more and more vivid until it finally solidified.

At the beginning, Zhu Zimo just wanted to do the same thing.

Unfortunately, he overestimated this group of 'amateur' makeup artists.

There is no way, he can only do two jobs at one time, and he almost picked up the tools to get started!But what makes him feel powerless is that even if this step is achieved, the makeup artists still have to rework it several times before he is basically satisfied.

Xiao Ai and the others felt extremely wronged at the beginning, being slapped so shamelessly by a handsome and charming young director, everyone was slandering Zhu Zimo in their hearts, what a nitpicker!Are you finding fault on purpose? !But with repeated repairs again and again, they no longer feel wronged!

Director Zhu has been standing by the side, occasionally dialing a few words, and even doing it himself twice!He really has a pair of wonderful hands that can turn stone into gold!Looking at the final product, the girls almost worshiped him!No wonder he disliked the makeup at the beginning, it turned out to be really scum!

Several actors looked in the mirror and were also stunned.

They have already obtained the script in advance, so they almost know the role they want to play.Don't care whether it's Wu Junqi who has made many movies, or Shen Pingzhang who is basically just playing tricks, everyone is not a newcomer, and they have all been in the crew. It can be said that Zhu Zimo's crew definitely pays the most attention to makeup!

Unless it is a big name, no one will have their own dedicated makeup artist. If the role is important, they will spend more time applying it - actresses need it more, and male actors basically need a layer of foundation - as for those that are not important The small supporting roles, and the actors who have lines but don't have lines, who cares about them!Want to make yourself more beautiful?Personalize!In order to highlight the main character, some production crews even stipulate that minor supporting roles and extras are not allowed to make up. When the time comes, the main character will be glamorous, and the rest will naturally serve as foils for the set...

Shen Pingzhang has been treated like this for the past two years.It’s fine when he doesn’t wear make-up, but more often than not, he will be pretended to be ugly, dressed in rustic clothes, no matter how unlovable the character is, the lighting artist will also do some tricks secretly, and the appearance must be perfect. The most ruined is only three points.

Well, there are no sci-fi blockbusters in China, they are basically ancient costumes and modern costumes, and they can't always escape this framework.

Without the treatment they had enjoyed before, the actors naturally did not understand the reason why Zhu Zimo was so angry, but at this moment, they finally understood.

Although I haven't put on costumes yet, the 'high-end atmospheric future feeling' is already coming out!

Most importantly, I feel that their beauty has been improved several levels from the original basis!The charm bonus that fits the character's temperament, and the benefits, as an actor, who doesn't understand it?

Why does the same actor look very beautiful or handsome in one play, but lose his looks in another play?Makeup and styling are definitely a very important part of it!
