At the filming base, each director team has a so-called "coffee time" in the evening. The coffee platform is in a common area on the second floor. This is responsible for replenishing snacks and drinks for each director team. There is only one camera seat, and it is closed at night.
, it allows the directors to get together and talk about some private things that are usually difficult to say during filming.
At this time, the six major director groups are in place, each holding a small book or notebook as usual, but today it is obvious that everyone is not gathering for inspiration.
Yu Qing, who was praised by Jingdian Professor Chen Lianshi as having "an amazing ability to express vividness and vitality", crept up the stairs and whispered to everyone in a sneaky voice, "They have been very quiet over there, they all seem to be doing their own thing."
matter……"
This statement immediately caused everyone to raise their ears.
Dong Jiayin quickly asked, "You mean they are already starting work? They have determined the filming content? So soon..."
She had a look of surprise on her face, and the captains around her also looked slightly condensed. They had been very calm all the time. They had been drawing storyboards in their notebooks since they first arrived. Lin Yuan, who had not raised his head very often, suddenly raised his head, showing a look of attention.
The topic selection of science fiction is a big issue now. What direction is it going in? It involves thinking in all aspects. It has only been one day since the science fiction topic was proposed on the show. Did Chen Yiwen and the others have already decided on the filming content? This is too exaggerated.
?Although they are very tight on time and need to produce results within a week, it is often extremely important to determine the story and how to shoot it in the early stage. Once something goes wrong in this step, it is likely that all the subsequent work will be in vain.
After getting the topic selection, everyone thought that it would take half the time just to determine the content, but the subsequent shooting was relatively easy. After all, technology is actually very advanced now, with special effects and the like, assisted by AI.
It's all fast and convenient, even if you can't use professional second-level software.
How a person's talent is reflected often lies in being able to complete more work than others in a unit of time, and better. The so-called efficiency and quality are both integrated.
Needless to say, Chen Yiwen's abilities have been witnessed by them at the film festival. Everyone who participated in this program was unconvinced and gathered together. Although they were unconvinced, they still recognized Chen Yiwen's ability. But if he has determined the core of the story now
When he started producing, there was no doubt that he showed his ability to surpass everyone and be ahead of the curve.
Here, Yu Qing quickly shook her head, "Confirm the content of the shooting. It doesn't seem to be there. I don't see anything written on their whiteboard. They are in the exploratory stage like us..."
Everyone visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I just feel that Chen Yiwen didn't seem to be hit too hard, but his team members seemed to be a little wilted."
"What kind of blow can he take... It's just for fun, and his true colors are revealed." Qin Junbo snorted coldly.
Everyone looked at him, Jia Libo smiled indifferently, but Lin Yuan said coldly, "Qin Junbo, to be fair, do you really think that what the judge Wang Qiutong said about Chen Yiwen and his evaluation of his ability and professionalism are correct?
"
Qin Junbo was startled for a moment and said, "Professional is actually a path that many people have pointed out without making mistakes after countless trials and errors. I used to sneer at those professional books, and I thought I could follow my own ideas.
There is a way to do it, but when I actually do it, I find that it is not that simple. In any case, I always pay attention to one thing and lose the other. Then I understand that there are things that professional knowledge tells us not to do.
It makes sense."
"You want to say that Chen Yiwen is really not professional enough and is a layman. I don't think so. He still has his own strengths, but can the strengths offset the weaknesses? Especially where professional knowledge is increasingly needed, his weaknesses are
The more you rely on talent in a certain area, this is not a hexagonal development, it is just a strong one in one direction, just like a peacock, one side is good, but the other side may be full of flaws!"
Lin Yuan nodded, "What you said makes sense, but recently I can't help but think about a question, that is, what is the most fundamental core purpose of the things we shoot? One is self-expression, and the other is the expression of the world.
The expression of
The most basic requirements for expression. We need to output value and create works that make people feel thoughtful or powerful after reading them. At this point, all the professors and books we come into contact with are the accumulation of previous experience.
, However, you can’t deny that the market and people’s requirements for this are changing.”
"Are the things that were regarded as guidelines in the past still applicable now? I don't think so. For example, at every stage of our life or society, there are problems and paths we face at every stage. So what we thought was professional before can be applied.
What if things are no longer suitable for this changing era and the reality that is changing at any time?”
"What is good does not count if you and I define it, not even those defined by books. Only what is defined by reality counts." Lin Yuan said, "Only what the audience in front of you thinks counts. Yes.
Whether the expression in this world is good or not depends on how many people you can impress, otherwise you can only impress yourself, and anything that only expresses yourself is incomplete."
Everyone showed expressions of deep thought and recognition, and also discovered the accumulation and progress of Lin Yuan.
Otherwise, they were top-notch figures from prestigious universities in relevant majors. Everyone quickly adjusted and nodded, "The foundation of a career is your work!"
"Chen Yiwen offended the judges, but it doesn't matter anymore. Let's do our best."
Qin Junbo did not forget to say, "If it weren't for Chen Yiwen, would we have chosen this category? I've never done science fiction..."
"Haven't you ever read science fiction magazines? After all, you've seen so many Hollywood blockbusters. The industrial standards of those science fiction films are still top-notch... and you don't have any ideas of your own?"
"I don't like these overly fantasy and obscene things. What's the use of them? I focus more on realism..." Qin Junbo frowned.
"If you don't use good software, you can't compete with the special effects. Then you can only achieve the maximum with limited effects. But if you use not very good software to complete the grand scenery, isn't this a plus point?"
"Yes, in fact, this direction is possible. Let me point it out. I don't have the conditions, but I have made something good. I believe the audience will be impressed!"
"Otherwise, we should take the detailed route and build a sci-fi world view, with cyberpunk, advanced light screen projection, towering buildings, but the slums below are extremely involution... We can focus on depicting some of this kind of world
The scene, a gun battle would be nice..."
Everyone was talking and brainstorming.
Someone asked, "Can we take a clever approach and just use a science fiction background, but it can be a sketch-like story that can reflect reality."
Lin Yuandao, "It's not impossible, but it's very difficult... I had this idea before, and I communicated it with my teacher..."
When everyone looked at him, they knew that Lin Yuan had a profound background and came from a wealthy family. He knew almost all the famous people in Jingdian. Some of them were even brothers with his father. They were even frequent visitors to his home and had watched him grow up.
Jia Libo said, "Zhang Lan from Jingdian Drama Theory is such a great person. How can I say that you asked for help outside the scene..."
"I didn't let others think for me..." Lin Yuandao, then looked around at everyone, "My teacher said that this method is not impossible. Some people have done it abroad, such as "The Intouchable" and "Wei Mang",
All such works are amazing, but this one
What is essentially missing is not a sci-fi core, but an exquisite story. But the key is that a story that can withstand scrutiny and wow all audiences cannot be written casually. In other words
, he can’t even make such a story..."
Everyone understood that Zhang Lan, the boss of Jingdian, had won many major domestic drama screenplay awards back then. People like this admitted that they couldn't do it. They were just fledgling people who were still learning how to be a creative director.
, how dare you attack such a peak?
"Then let's go back and think about it..."
Everyone has no intention of staying any longer. They are all thinking about their own stories now. Tomorrow is the third day. Within this week, the whole thing will come to fruition. It can be said that every second counts.
…
In the studio of the Commercial Academy, Chen Yiwen looked at the atmosphere of everyone, clapped his hands, and then stood up, "Meeting in the conference room."
When everyone walked into the conference room, Chen Yiwen looked around and said, "Why, are you all beaten down? No confidence anymore?"
Liu Yu said, "I won't be beaten down, but I feel it's not worth it. You said that if this continues, the professional reviewers from Wang Qiutong's side have been targeting us, what's the point? It's very uncomfortable to use it as a stepping stone for others!"
"
Chen Yiwen looked at Hu Lijing again, "Why are you tinkering with your phone so much?"
Hu Lijing said, "Aren't you replying to fans' messages?"
"Fans?" Chen Yi was surprised when he heard this.
"Our tribal group in Bozhan. Boluo.com has now built an internal channel for each team. Netizens can leave messages directly. There are more than 10,000 comments below. I will choose some people to reply."
Zhao Jiajia kept frowning, "I have thought of a few stories, but they are only the beginning. I am still trying to figure out how to do it...it's too difficult..."
Chen Yiwen looked at Zhuo Jun, "What about you?"
Zhuo Jun shrugged, "I'm waiting for you to say something, just fuck them! I'm very calm, it just depends on how you arrange it."
Chen Yiwen nodded, "Perhaps we will still be looked down upon and targeted. But are these important? What do we have to do, is to win the praise of professional judges and change those who are biased against us? Unfortunately, bias and stance are
The most difficult thing to change in the world. So we don’t need to pay attention to it. We just need to use the results to leave them far behind. Those so-called obstacles and accusations against us are just used to prove that we can
It’s just a stepping stone.”
Everyone was very familiar with Chen Yiwen at this time. Their eyes lit up and they came closer, "Have you already got an idea?"
"Hurry up and stop showing off. How are we going to fight this battle?"
Chen Yiwen looked at everyone and said with a smile, "I'll tell you this story..."
