Chapter 128, Lucid Dreams (93/100)
Wang Taika opened her eyes and found herself standing at the door of a wedding etiquette company.
Every year, there are countless graduates from film and television colleges across the country. Except for those who are engaged in irrelevant industries, most of them are involved in the wedding photography industry. After all, there are so many people in the country who get married every day. For the bride and groom, this is a big thing for a lifetime, and of course, it is a big deal to run it in a big way, so this industry is very profitable.
Of course, for various wedding etiquette companies and wedding photography companies, no matter how unique and beautiful these weddings are, they are ultimately just daily life and ordinary daily life.
At most, at the end, several people will discuss with each other who will have the best banquet at today's weddings and whose bride is the best, that's all.
"But, why am I here?" Wang Taika patted his head: "Aren't I in Korea? Am I dreaming? By the way! This should be several years ago, when I just graduated, and I had an internship here? Why did I dream about this?"
"Wang Taika, you're here just right. You'll follow me later. There's a wedding today. Xiao Wang and the others go to the man's house, with the tripod and big swing arm all in their car. This time I'm the one who takes the photo, just follow me. I'll bring a camera, a 5D2 SLR, a 50-focus, and a wide-angle lens. If Xiaobai... bring it too! The tripod should be smaller. Remember to look at the battery."
Wang Taika looked at a man at the door, a little confused, but still didn't know how to agree. Then Wang Taika pinched himself with his hands and found that it didn't hurt.
"It's true that it's a dream! Is it a day and a night?" Wang Taika thought, and now he didn't know how to wake up, and he couldn't understand why he came here? Or just follow and take a look!
Wang Taika followed the local customs and followed a group of people he didn't know and went straight to the woman's house. Then several people didn't speak and started to pack up their things in a tacit way. They put on tripods, changed cameras, and looked for scenes. The bride was still putting on makeup, waiting for the makeup to finish and started shooting.
There were a bunch of female relatives from the Mid-Fang family sitting in the living room. Wang Taika found a stool and sat in an inconspicuous corner. There were dried fruits on the table, and Wang Taika ate them secretly.
Getting married is actually a very tiring thing.
Just talking about the bride's makeup, it takes several hours. The wedding dress looks good, but it is actually supported by a shelf, and the wedding dress with the hem of the skirt is particularly heavy. Wearing a wedding dress on your body is probably like a pot of cramming.
Wang Taika was eating pistachios while looking at it. I wonder if the bridesmaids would look good when they come later. Although this kind of thing is quite vulgar, in fact, this is indeed one of the few highlights in boring work.
This kind of boring work starts from around 8 am to around 11 noon. There are many rules for getting married in the north, and some are also given special attention. In some places, the wedding starts at 11:50 noon, and it is auspicious when the yang energy is the most abundant day.
However, some people also choose to get married in the afternoon, which is normal. Most of them are at one or two o'clock. After a wedding, it is common to have three or four hours of struggle. After the end, it will be almost dark.
This is a magical art that looks very creative, but in fact it is all routine. It can be said that even if there are a thousand houses with different layouts, structures, colors, decorations, and lighting, and wedding photography, they are all the same. Although they are beautiful, they are not nutritious.
At first glance, it looks so unique and brilliant, but it is actually because people have experienced too little experience. If you look at a few more, you will find that there are similarities in all the cameras.
This is actually the difference between a large city and a small city.
For example, in a small town in Wang Taika's hometown, wedding photography is not that complicated at all. A camera and a camera are handheld, first photographing the man, then picking up the bride, then the wedding car team, and finally going to the wedding venue, putting a tripod in the middle, adjusting the position, and recording the whole process. Finally, a toast and take a little shot. If you specifically ask for a photo shoot in the bridal chamber, you will get an extra red envelope. It is a record of the turnover, and the cameraman doesn't care about it at all.
In big cities, people have high horizons and high requirements. Therefore, they need many computers and a lot of material editing. Of course, this price is also very high.
For small cities, one game is actually only a few hours at most, and one game is worth hundreds of yuan. For big cities, one is busy all day, and it is very busy. Finally, it will be edited out, add some special effects, and adjust the color. At least a few thousand, tens of thousands more. This is just a cost in photography.
Of course, these are also aimed at the rich.
The knock on the door was probably because the bridesmaids were coming. As soon as the female parent opened the door, the first one to come in was a middle-aged woman in her forties...
Of course, this middle-aged woman will definitely not be a bridesmaid. After all, the bridesmaids are young girls who require unmarried. This middle-aged woman is a "full-he" person. The full-held man is also called "full-good man" and "full-beauty man". This is originally a dialect in the capital, but now there is this concept in the north. A strict full-held man refers to parents, parents-in-law are alive, spouse, children are both full, children are full of children, mothers are kind and filial, family is harmonious, no remarried daughters are remarried, no remarried man, and four generations are living together.
But it is too difficult to find such people, so the general people who are looking for are people who are still married, have spouses, have both children, have no remarried daughters, and have no remarried men. For example, in Wang Taika's hometown, most people will find Wang Taika's mother when they get married, because even if a daughter has both full-hearted ones.
The role of Quanhe Ren is that on the eve of marriage, the girl's family must "upload the head" for her daughter. "upload the head" means changing the hair style and tying the braids into a bun. "upload the head" is a very particular ritual. A new comb is used to comb the hair, and the person who helps "upload the head" must be a "full blessing person", that is, Quanhe Ren.
However, after Quanhe Ren, there were four or five young and beautiful girls, who should be bridesmaids. They all looked pretty good. However, after a few people came, they went directly to a small room to change their bridesmaids' clothes. Wang Taika didn't have such a good fortune.
At this time, Wang Taika was still wondering that he had been a documentary videographer for so many years, but he didn't dream of the related scenes? Why did he dream of it after only two or three weddings during his internship during his college internship period in order to complete the on-the-job internship certificate?
Without this dream, Wang Taika even forgot to be a wedding cameraman!
Then there was the wedding reception, but Wang Taika did not follow him because he had to carry the equipment in advance. Instead, he arrived at the venue without stopping. Wang Taika found a place to charge and placed the things.
Next, the rocker arm should be installed, and the equipment should be installed, and all the equipment should be installed are busy. Wang Taika was stuck on the side to install the rocker arm. The five-meter large rocker arm was installed, and the rest was debugging.
With more and more guests, the wedding begins soon. Wang Taika mainly manages batteries today. With such continuous shooting of a machine, the batteries are definitely not enough, so generally each machine has two batteries, one is in use and the other is charging. Wang Taika is running errands and changing the battery at any time.
Almost an hour later, with the grand opening sound effects and light show over, the host said a lot of blessing words on the stage, and the whole hall was full of joy.
"Oh, when will I have this day?" Wang Taika suddenly sighed.
At this time, the host on the stage shouted excitedly: "Please invite the bride and groom to enter!"
The bride was walking slowly in the passage in the center of the stage. Wang Taika looked curiously. He was at the woman's house just now, because the bride was putting on makeup and then left early, so he didn't see what the bride looked like. This time, I have to see if it looks good.
A wedding dress is as white as snow. The hair is scattered, exquisite and stylish. The smile is bright and bright, the eyes are white.
In an instant, it seemed that the flowers in the world were blooming, and the sun shone through the roof of the house, shining inside the house, shining on everyone, shining on the bride's face, and I saw it in a real moment!
