Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 251 Crew Constitution
There are certain characteristics to magic moves, and you can tell by watching the magicians on stage how to perform their moves in an entertaining way.

Fang Hong told Duan Yihong, Xie Miao and others about the characteristics that each character's actions needed to express, and that was all.

This made Liu Tianxian very confused, and she patted his arm and asked, "Did you forget something?"

"What?" Fang Hong was puzzled.

"How should I express the action characteristics of my character? You have already said it, why don't you tell me?" Liu Tianxian was puzzled.

This man used to teach her how to act, and he taught her everything about other things, but he didn’t teach her about her action characteristics.

"You feel very good now, beautiful and pretty, keep looking pretty." Fang Hong said.

"What nonsense are you talking about." Liu Tianxian thought he was joking and hit him on the chest.

"What I said is true. Just act freely and be as confident as you can. The most beautiful thing about a woman is her confidence. Only with confidence can she exude her charm," Fang Hong explained.

"Oh, that's how it is!"

Liu Tianxian thought that the man was teasing her and misunderstood him.

She forgot that this man never joked with her at work, but only teased her in private.

Looking around, everyone else just glanced at the two of them curiously and then left. No one would really try to figure out what the relationship between the two was.

Those who have climbed to the level of actors in the entertainment industry rarely have the materials to make a hit drama, unless the situation is really out of control.

Either they blow up themselves or the paparazzi do it.

Soon, the crew was ready again. Fang Hong sat in the director's seat, while Chen Sicheng and Lu Yang sat on both sides to study.

Look at how cool and awesome the principal is!
Liu Tianxian stood behind Fang Hong, supporting his shoulders with both hands, watching Duan Yihong's performance on the monitor.

Duan Yihong was seen standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling glass, looking directly at himself in the mirror. He kept playing tricks with the cards in his hand, while the camera rotated 360 degrees around him.

This rotation really gives people a very cool feeling.

Fang Hong then directed the cameras No. 2 and No. 3 to switch lenses continuously, sometimes cutting to the details of Duan Yihong's hands, sometimes cutting to his face.

Flipping the cards in your hand is a show of skill, very cool!
The face is expressionless and the shadows make it difficult to see the full picture, giving people a very mysterious feeling.

Chen Sicheng and Lu Yang couldn't help but look at each other. The coolness and awesomeness were all captured in this shot, coupled with the coolness of the protagonist.

It really gives you a wild, cool and awesome feeling.

At the end, Duan Yihong's cards flipped and a J turned into an A, and the scene froze.

It makes people feel very emotional!
"If it's accompanied by sound effects and monologue, the sound effects add feeling, and the monologue introduces the character's abilities, then this segment will stand out."

Fang Hong patted the two men's legs on both sides and stood up: "This is over, next round!"

The principal is really awesome. He finished shooting as soon as he arrived. The other assistant directors took a long time to finish shooting, which wasted time.

The main reason is that they have never filmed a movie with such amazing shots, and they still have the preconceived impression of the realistic shooting method.

After Fang Hong said this, they understood.

At this time, the crew was packing up their equipment and moving to another location. A group of people were moving things outside. It was very hot outside.

Liu Tianxian fanned herself with a fan, her hair flying in the wind: "I think you are quite good at making movies. Why did you always say that you couldn't make movies before?"

"I'm not very good at taking pictures." Fang Hong said beside him.

"You're not very good at filming, but you still talk about it very well. So many people are listening to you, and they all think what you say is correct." Liu Tianxian glanced at him.

"Really?" Fang Hong didn't think anything of it.

I've gotten used to a bunch of people around him listening to him talk nonsense, but I never felt that I could make a movie.

If I could shoot, I would make art films and win awards!
"Of course you are. You must be capable. Otherwise, so many of your movies wouldn't be big sellers and recognized by the market." Liu Tianxian said with certainty.

"It's all teamwork. I just explain to them the images I want in my mind." Fang Hong still didn't think he was good at taking pictures.

He just copied everything. He shot whatever scenes came into his mind and sometimes he was too lazy to make any changes.

The only movie that changed its style and plot was "The Witch". That movie was dragged out, bloody, and felt niche, so it was changed.

"Those Years" was simply compressed and some unnecessary content was deleted.

"It takes a lot of skill to present the picture in your mind and express what you want through the picture. Some people can't even copy it well!" Liu Tianxian complimented him anyway.

This man is in a situation where he cannot see his own shining points and always feels that he is worse than others.

What she didn't know was that Fang Hong had never made a movie that was shown on the big screen in his previous life, and the films he made now were all copied from others, so naturally he didn't think of them as his own work.

But over the years, he has been writing script outlines, drawing storyboards, and drawing pictures day and night, and he has practiced one film after another, so he has made progress.

Even if you copy others for many years, you still cannot compare to ordinary people!
"It seems to be true if you put it that way!" Fang Hong suddenly realized.

He found that he had a stronger control over big movies. In the past, he felt that he could not make a movie like "The Legend of the Hongmen Feast".

Now it feels like that’s the case.

Shooting a project like Now You See Me seemed to be a natural thing, without much resistance.

Of course, it’s due to the good team framework, but it’s also due to his control, otherwise such a large crew wouldn’t be so coordinated.

Liu Tianxian closed her fan and tapped him on the head: "You are so stupid."

"Oh, you've discovered all my strengths." Fang Hong put his arm around her shoulders and smiled contentedly.

Liu Tianxian looked at him and smiled gently.

These two people are arm in arm regardless of the occasion. People who are familiar with them think it is normal, while those who are not familiar with them will just take a few more glances.

Mainly out of envy, they wonder when they can be as successful as the principal and film with beautiful women in their arms.

Then there will be no regrets in this life!
"The first article of the crew's constitution: no gossip. Anyone who gossips will never be hired and will be held legally responsible." Lu Dabo was explaining the crew's rules to his subordinates.

No one dared to say anything, work is important!

After the assistant director determines the style of the film, he will have a clear idea of ​​how to shoot it and will start shooting from morning to night.

What we are going to shoot now is the scene where Liu Tianxian escapes from the water tank, which is her ability to appear.

There are many extras in this scene. After all, it is a performance and needs to set the mood.
Liu Tianxian needed to wear a bikini when she appeared on stage. Due to Fang Hong's selfish motives, he put a suspender chiffon dress over her bikini, which went all the way to her knees.

He himself hasn't even appreciated it, so how can he let others appreciate it?

The scene is set in a converted factory.

At this time, Fang Hong was checking the water tank equipment. It was said that the heroine of the original film almost drowned, so be careful.

He looked at the water in the tank and asked, "What kind of water is this?"

"This is purified water, and it meets drinkable standards," said the staff.

It's really luxurious. There is such a big tank of water that people can swim in it, and it uses purified water.

But it doesn't matter, I have money! Fang Hong asked again: "If we want to drain this water, how long will it take?"

"It's very quick, just a few seconds, just press the button to drain the water," said the staff.

Fang Hong nodded. If an accident occurred, the water in the tank could be drained quickly.

He picked up the thick iron chain and looked at it. This was the prop that would be used to tie up Liu Tianxian. He wanted to lock her hands and feet and then escape.

"How is it? Can we take pictures now?" Liu Tianxian patted his shoulder from behind.

Fang Hong turned around and saw Liu Tianxian in a gauze dress that looked quite elegant. He took her hand and motioned for her to turn around.

"What are you doing?" Liu Tianxian turned around.

Fang Hong took a look and luckily it wasn't transparent. He said, "This is the first time I see you wearing a skirt. Let me appreciate it."

"I often wear skirts, okay!" Liu Tianxian said.

"Is there?" Fang Hong recalled.

"I always wear a skirt when I attend events," said Liu Tianxian.

"That doesn't count, it's for others to see." Fang Hong was speechless.

Liu Tianxian smiled and thought so. Seeing the iron chain in his hand, she asked, "What is this for?"

"Lock it up."

Fang Hong squatted down and locked her feet: "Try and see if you can break free."

Liu Tianxian lifted one foot and pulled it upwards, but it felt heavy and she couldn't break free. She then pulled it apart again, but still couldn't break free.

"Sister Fei, just use your foot to push the chain tied around your ankle and it will open." The staff member next to her pointed.

Following the instructions, Liu Tianxian pulled the iron chain around her ankle with her foot. The chain opened and fell to the ground.

"It's that simple." She found it strange.

"The chain is real, it's connected by magnets. If you're in danger, just use your feet to poke it and you'll float up immediately." Fang Hong explained it clearly to prevent her from getting into danger.

"Okay!" Liu Tianxian nodded.

"How long can you hold your breath in the water?" Fang Hong asked.

"I'm not sure, I haven't tried it specifically, but one minute should be enough!" Liu Tianxian estimated.

This time is long enough.

"If something unexpected happens and you can't hold it anymore, just give me a sign and don't force yourself to hold it in," Fang Hong warned.

"I know."

Liu Tianxian also knew that he was considering his own safety, otherwise he would not have thought so thoughtfully and come to check the water tank and props.

The two communicated for a while, and everything was ready, so the shooting began.

This play was not shot by Fang Hong, but by Lu Yang, who only controlled the artistic quality.

When everything is ready, the shooting begins.

The crowd was noisy at the scene. Liu Tianxian's hands and feet were tied with iron chains. She was standing on a water tank. Above her head was a box of piranhas.

If she fails to untie the chains on her hands and feet within 60 seconds of entering the water tank, the piranhas above her head will swoop down and eat her.

After the rules were explained, Liu Tianxian fell into the water with a "bang".

Everything went smoothly at first. In less than ten seconds, she untied the chains on her hands. Then she quickly lowered herself to untie the chains on her feet, but found that the chains were stuck.

I pulled hard but couldn't pull it up, the chain was stuck and couldn't float up, and time was passing by every second.

She had no choice but to knock on the glass for help.

"Click!" Lu Yang shouted while holding the walkie-talkie.

The noisy environment immediately stopped and became quiet.

The staff tried to pull Liu Tianxian up, but failed. Liu Tianxian just lay beside the water tank listening to the director's instructions with her head wet.

“Fairy, you have to feel that kind of anxiety, the anxiety of being in danger of death.” Lu Yang said.

"Okay, director, I'll try!" Liu Tianxian glanced at Fang Hong.

Fang Hong gave her an encouraging look.

The filming started from entering the water. Liu Tianxian sank into the water tank, and the filming continued. The extras continued to dance and make noise.

After Liu Tianxian untied the chains on her hands, she continued to untie those on her feet. This time, it took her longer to untie the chains on her feet.

Time passed by minute by minute, and except for the extras, the director and staff all watched silently.

Liu Tianxian waited until she was almost suffocating and felt like she was drowning before she started hitting the glass.

While Lu Yang was looking at the monitor, he didn't say anything. He felt that it was not enough and he needed to be more anxious, the kind of anxious feeling that one's life was in danger.

Liu Tianxian held it in and continued to bang on the glass.

Fang Hong looked at his watch and felt that the time was a bit long.

Just when Liu Tianxian couldn't hold it anymore and drank a few sips of water weakly, Lu Yang signaled the extras to go up and smash the glass.

The extras who had been waiting for a long time picked up a big hammer and smashed it on the water tank.

But it didn't break, and there was no movement in the water tank.

Liu Tianxian dodged back a bit, knowing that this was an instruction. After choking on the water a few times, he pulled hard on the iron chain on his feet.

She surfaced suddenly, but the "time" was exactly "60 seconds" and Liu Tianxian was smashed into the water tank by the piranhas that were tilting down.

As Liu Tianxian struggled, the water in the tank immediately turned into blood and gushed out.

The filming was finished at this point. In fact, the filming was finished when Liu Tianxian was thrown into the water tank.

The special scene at the end is when the blood and water are gushing out, but Liu Tianxian is not there!

Fang Hong took a towel and hurried over to wrap Liu Tianxian's body.

"Cough cough cough!" Liu Tianxian was still choking on water.

"Why don't you say anything or make any gestures?" Fang Hong said.

“I want to be real.”

"It's just a play, is it necessary?"
