my crew is not human

Chapter 236 Script and Budget

Just do what you say, and in just two days, Yisheng Media has set up a brand new department, the backstage department.

This department is composed entirely of deaf people and serves the technical department.

Of course, the deaf back office doesn't have to be full of food - they are actually responsible for operating the equipment.

This is equivalent to adding a special type of work to the crew - a special equipment operator.

The setting artists had to get started, but now they don't need it, their responsibility is to arrange.What kind of painting do I want here, and the staff in the backstage department operate the machine to spray it up; what kind of props do I want here, the backstage department will send someone to contact, and I will give you a prop in a few minutes; here I want lights, oh, they have to make the lights themselves, here The backstage department started to send WeChat, telling you that it will start in a few minutes... In fact, it is a little ghost scheduling.

That's it.

Since the devices are fake devices, the operation is also very simple.

A group of deaf-mute people hold the equipment, the only requirement is to use it according to the standard, don't ask about others, and ignore those who can speak.

Deaf people said: This is simple.

Once, a deaf-mute person in the background department accidentally pressed the switch of the spray gun, but there was nothing in it. He gestured to Li Feng in doubt, and Li Feng gestured back: The background is not activated, so don’t press it randomly in the future, it will affect the life of the equipment.

Another time, a certain deaf-mute neglected to deliver the request, but the request did not pass, and the screen came out, and everyone was confused... Is the background listening to us?
Li Feng continued to come out to fix the loopholes: It was the demand I sent over.

The question is, you weren't there just now?

Li Feng simply put on a straight face: I am secretly monitoring your work.

In this way, although the back office is full of loopholes and frequent situations, but limited by the company system and the state of the deaf-mute, it will never expand to the outside. It's important, it's important not to beep.

In this department, "can sit" is more important than "can do".

This is simple, and I live a puppet-like life with peace of mind.

After finishing this, Li Xianyun turned back to watch the rehearsal.

This is also a thing.

The rehearsal is of great significance, which is equivalent to making a draft. Whether it is an artistic need or a preparatory need, it must be shown through the rehearsal.

But Li Xianyun is also suitable for low cost.

For this reason, Cao Hongyue also tried her best.

Today, Cao Hongyue called Li Xianyun over, pointed at the computer and said, "The cost of using a computer to do detailed rehearsals is too high. So I asked them to focus on frame production, and then mark the requirements."

As she said that, she pointed to the villain on the screen, who still had the number 3 on her body, and said, "This means he is wearing costume No. [-]."

Then he picked up the drawing book, turned to one of the pages, pointed to a piece of clothing and said, "This is it."

"Number marks...it is indeed possible." Li Xianyun nodded.

It is easy to make a picture book, just find a piece of clothing and take a photo, but it takes a lot of effort to make it to the animation preview.

"The problem is that doing so means that the overall intuition will deteriorate, and the artistic effect will not be good." Cao Hongyue gritted her teeth.

People's rehearsals are all artistic considerations, and they can be intuitively felt when they are made, and they are picking up the omissions and making up for the omissions.

You are welcome, it is a preparation consideration, what is needed is that all the preparations are in place before the shooting, and then art.

In this way, the intuitive sense of art is too poor. While watching the film, the director has to figure out what the background of the character is... It's better to watch the storyboard.

Li Xianyun can also understand: "It's okay to add some storyboards to supplement it. In addition, I will ask Xincheng Group to study and see if there is a suitable software."

"Don't think about it, no." Cao Hongyue directly asked him to dispel this idea.

Hollywood has it, but it's not cheap.

A good rehearsal system is enough to cost you a blockbuster movie, research and development?Hehe, the cost is higher.

You don't have anything, and you still want to crush Hollywood?

Li Xianyun thinks about it too, indeed he has no advantage in this regard.

He nodded and said: "That's the only way to do it, the director has worked hard."

What technology lacks, manpower makes up for.

With 20 director's fee, Cao Hongyue had no right to object, so she could only say: "This can be done in a short period of time, but if you want to complete your own matrix planning, you'd better put more thought into this aspect."

Li Xianyun sighed helplessly, and learned the formula without a teacher: "Take your time."

--------------

In addition to makeup, rehearsal and other factors that affect the efficiency of the new model, there is another most important factor, which is the script!

Although Yisheng Media is known for its bad movies with special effects, this approach is only suitable for online universities, not for theaters.

To put it bluntly, Yisheng Media Network makes a lot of money because of the crushing special effects, and the audience just watches it lively. When the threshold for watching movies is low, you can make the audience lively and lively after watching it for two hours, which is considered a success.

But theater movies are different after all.

Audiences buy tickets with real money to enter the arena, and the requirements are also high.

You must not only have great special effects, but also a good plot.

But good scripts are difficult to mass-produce, so you must look for good scripts comprehensively—anyway, don’t expect Screenwriter.com or any film and television company’s script library to pick out decent ones.

But this matter has nothing to do with Cao Hongyue. The script review office has been set up to do script review. It can be said that they desperately want the script.

But still do not do customization.

Speaking of which, script customization is also a trap-screenwriters will be cheated by film and television companies, and film and television companies will also be cheated by screenwriters.

There are often film and television companies asking screenwriters for scripts, and then the screenwriters just write and write to deal with errands after taking the money.

What's more, he would even throw out the tattered notebook he wrote ten years ago.

So things like cheating are always two-way.

Enterprises are certainly cheating, and individuals are equally cheating!
It is precisely because the screenwriters are too tricky, so the film and television company learned to be good, try to find ready-made scripts, and then propose revisions.

Because of this, Huaguo's film and television industry has a common mode of operation-whether it is a producer or a director, they will fool the screenwriters to write scripts everywhere, no matter whether you write well or not, anyway, I will not give you a penny.

After the script is written, find investors to set up a project for investment.

The company does it this way, and so does the individual—even photographers and lighting engineers can use their books to solicit investment, and then turn themselves into directors.

As long as you can get the investment, you can play like this, if you can't be a director, you can be a producer. As long as you can fool, what can't you do?

Ren Zhi is a typical representative. Every time he uses Li Xianyun's book to fool around with investment.

Geng Biao’s HAN Provincial Hotel, the autistic film came about in the same way—he didn’t even have a script, so he relied on his connections to get investment, and then he pulled Rong Dasheng to be a photographer, but in this life, Rong Dasheng got rid of this suffering.

In the past, Li Xianyun hated doing this, but now this is what he needs.

The cost is low!

So under Li Xianyun's instructions, a group of college students who just graduated from the script review office called everywhere to ask for scripts every day. After getting the scripts, they began to review, and gave their own opinions while reviewing-good screenwriters don't do this for you. work.

As a result, a group of screenwriters were so angry that they yelled: "If you don't understand anything, come and point me out!"

But this is the status quo!

The threshold of literature is too low, as long as it is an individual, it can give opinions and even revise them.

Maybe it's right, maybe it's wrong.

It does not matter!

The important thing is that you don't have a standard by which to judge.

Just like the difference between Li Xianyun and Linglan, if the script written by Li Xianyun is handed over to Linglan, it will basically be counted as garbage, otherwise Linglan's script will become garbage if it is sent to Yisheng Media.

There is no threshold for literature, and there is also no fixed standard.

Even Li Xianyun, the only thing he can do is.

One, try to participate in the script review as much as possible.Second, try to improve the appreciation level of team members and give a general framework.

Even if it is like this, there will definitely be many manslaughters. I only hope that there will be a few good fish that slip through the net.

So the script review room began to wail: Who can find a job for the boss, he is now coming to us every day!
