Superstars start from the Academy of Film and Television

Chapter 61 How do documentaries engage audiences?
The college student film festival usually starts in late April, but the deadline for early declaration is at the end of March, that is to say, Han Fei and the others have less than a month to perfect the work.

After the division of labor is done, Han Fei and Jia Yougan still have to start editing non-stop. It is not an easy task to cut out a 4-minute video from [-] hours of material that can be perfectly integrated into the short film. The usual schedule is also very tight.

The next day, Xie Buchen also returned to school from Yangcheng, and he was very excited when he heard that the film festival for college students would be held this year.

This made Han Fei very curious. It stands to reason that when Xie Buchen was the most popular, he did not lose the current top traffic at all, and he would be so "greedy" for this kind of film festival that is not even considered the top domestic film festival.

Xie Buchen smiled: "That's because you don't understand, Xiaoxianrou is also eager to be recognized by mainstream values, believe it or not, if the award for the most popular actor is awarded to Xiaoxianrou, no matter how much money they give willing."

"So, that's why you reread it?" Han Fei asked.

Xie Buchen nodded, then shook his head: "Half and half, but I'm more greedy than them."

Because of the foreshadowing of the previous semester, this semester is not completely laying the foundation. In the body class, Tao Yuehua began to teach some more complicated dance moves, and the classroom was wailing for a while.

"Cheng Jiajia, look at you, you have lost at least [-] catties when you go back to the Chinese New Year. With your figure, if you enter the film and television industry in the future, you will lose your fans in minutes."

"And you, Liao Qihang, are you pregnant? It's the same level for women who are pregnant in three months."

It has to be said that Tao Yuehua's poisonous tongue is well known in Jingying. The only one in the class who is not ridiculed by him because of his figure is Jin Boyuan, although this guy said that he actually lost three catties during the New Year.

Of course, Han Fei was not spared either. During the Chinese New Year period, due to long-term shooting and editing of videos, Han Fei's body flexibility has deteriorated.

"Your body looks like a zombie, may I ask if your muscles have shrunk?" Tao Yuehua pinched the muscles on Han Fei's shoulders.

The nails have sunk in, and everyone understands that feeling. It's no better than being pinched by his girlfriend. Fortunately, Tao Yuehua let go quickly, and then let him practice softness alone. The feeling of tearing made Han Fei feel it again. To the pain of the early part of last semester.

Of course, Han Fei can still bear this pain. What makes him most helpless is the theory class. Yes, the art school also needs to learn theory, and starting from the next semester, it will not only be a junior course like world film history, but is subdivided into various performance genres.

The most important thing is that these things have no reference and no rules. They rely purely on rote memorization. For science students who Han Fei is used to learning by looking for rules, it is simply a nightmare.

However, what made him even more depressed was that the students actually expressed that there was no pressure. After inquiring, he found out that most of these people were liberal arts students!
After finally getting out of class, Han Fei was planning to go back to the dormitory to continue editing the video, when a short-haired girl walked towards him and blocked his way.

Han Fei always felt that this girl looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember who it was. Han Fei looked around and it seemed that there was no one else around, so he couldn't help asking curiously: "Do we know each other?"

"Too familiar!" Yao Na almost gritted her teeth. It was a good move for her to invite Han Fei to join the music club. Although the popularity of the song [Remembrance] has faded, the popularity of singing has been good.

But what Yao Na couldn't figure out was that Han Fei was so shameless that he didn't even participate in a club activity last semester.

However, many members of the club already knew about Han Fei's joining, and they always wanted to communicate with him closely, but he let everyone down time and time again.

Naturally, this blame must be strongly advocated to invite Han Fei to join the club, and Yao Na, who has been in charge of communicating with him, has come to recite it. Some people have even begun to wonder if she has any unreasonable thoughts about Han Fei, so that's why Han Fei is deliberately not allowed to join the club active.

"Music Club?" Han Fei refused without thinking, "I'm sorry, I really don't have time recently"

Yao Na was about to explode, every time she sent him a wechat call, she always used this set of rhetoric, and she couldn't accept the performance in her freshman year, why is she so busy?

"Then, I would like to ask, when do you have time?" Yao Na said in a calm tone as much as possible.

Han Fei shrugged: "Let's talk about it." After speaking, he quickly stepped aside Yao Na.

"Ah!!!" Looking at Han Fei's back, Yao Na stomped her feet angrily, but there was nothing she could do.

For nearly a month, Han Fei spent almost all his spare time on editing videos and optimizing content. According to Jiang Qinghou, there is no problem with his editing ideas in the second half, but the rhythm of his techniques is poor. some.

For this reason, Jiang Qinghou also specially recommended a professional book, which talked about how to use the lens language, and the relationship between color, light and lens. After reading it, Han Fei also benefited a lot. Of course, at his level Still half-baked, his real forte lies in storytelling.

After a month of polishing, everyone felt OK after watching the final film. Of course, the DV quality is still as bad as ever, but the documentary doesn’t care so much. What really matters is whether the filmed story can reflect what the director wants. The spiritual core of expression.

Han Fei looked at the subtitles of the movie. For some reason, he felt a sense of accomplishment. This was a movie they finished together, and he was one of the leading actors.

"Then declare it like this?" Jia Youqian couldn't wait any longer.

Jiang Qinghou rubbed his chin, clicked his tongue and said: "This film is well edited, but it's not me who poured cold water on it. Your fragmented narrative style and no coherent plot make it difficult to gain attention. Won the best documentary award, but without attention, wouldn't your thoughts be in vain?"

Jia Yougan's whole face collapsed: "I said monkey, are you sincere? Why didn't you say it before?"

Jiang Qinghou shrugged helplessly: "If I had told you earlier, would you still be so serious?"

I have to admit that what Jiang Qinghou said is very reasonable. Their goal is not to win awards, but to attract more people to see this film. The documentary is destined not to be a subject that can attract audiences in terms of narration.

While thinking about it, Xie Buchen bumped his arm: "You are a fan of the authorities, have you forgotten how the video proving your innocence became popular?"

"You mean?" Han Fei's eyes lit up, and he slapped his thigh. That's right, why did he forget his own advantages?

Both Jia Youqian and Jiang Qinghou looked confused, they didn't know what riddles they were playing.

"You'll know by then!"
