Chapter 139 Rapid progress
For the sake of concentrating on filming, Zhou Yi did not go home to stay, but was with everyone in the hotel.
The next day, Zhou Yi got up early, and when he pushed open the door, he saw Lou Xiaoxiao wearing pajamas walking out of the next room.
"If I remember correctly, is this from Jiang Yingyue?" Zhou Yi asked.
"Yes?" Lou Xiaoxiao was startled by the voice behind her, turned around and said guiltily: "I exchanged feelings with Yingyue last night to discuss performance skills. Later, after talking late at night, I simply slept in the same room."
Speaking of this, Lou Xiaoxiao quickly emphasized: "But we slept in two beds! No strange things happened!"
Zhou Yi flicked Lou Xiaoxiao's forehead: "What are you nervous? It's normal for a girl to sleep in the same bed?"
Lou Xiaoxiao quickly smiled foolishly, yes, why are you nervous?
"Go and change your clothes quickly! We're going to set off later!"
The filming of the next day began. The scenes of Hatano, Tseng Shelley and Dong and Sa gradually became intertwined. Finally, thanks to Hatano's persistence and request, the two campus goddesses finally moved and decided to form a band together to sing songs that everyone likes, and to commemorate high school life.
When filming this kind of small interactive plot between the three, Zhou Yi found that the effect was much better than he had imagined.
Especially Lou Xiaoxiao, among the three starring actors, she has the most difficult performance, but her acting skills are the worst. This is also what Zhou Yi is most worried about, and she has already prepared to make some suggestions.
However, I didn't expect that Lou Xiaoxiao was very natural, and her every move and every word were very coordinated, which was completely consistent with her character.
Especially when facing Donghesa played by Jiang Yingyue, it is rare to express the joy and joy from the bottom of your heart in peace.
Zhou Yi doesn’t have to worry about Jiang Yingyue’s acting skills. Just like a large-scale 80-level person comes back to brush a copy of level 60, you can perform the best results with your eyes closed, crushing you all the way.
Zhou Yi himself had no problem. After all, he observed it in the dream experience many times, and now he is in a half-human and half-god state. For a while, most of the three people's plays were once, and he was so skillful that he had rehearsed thousands of times.
This made Gao Hui and Lu Tingting, who were watching on the side, amazed. You should know that these scenes are not that simple, and the relationship is handled quite delicately. It would be fine if you act on it yourself, but the effect of the performance will definitely be greatly reduced.
During the shooting on this day, Sun Qingtong not only controlled the camera, but also took over Zhou Yi's director position. Of course, she also performed many Zhou Yi's ideas during the shooting. The key point of the drama "White Album" is to shoot a beautiful feeling.
To ensure that every shot and every frame should be as beautiful as possible, just like a postcard or landscape painting, you must freeze the audience to see the beauty that is coming to your face.
This requires a high level of demand for photographers. Not only should we have eyes to discover beauty, but we should also record it with the lens at the most appropriate moment. Sun Qingtong is also doing everything possible to do the best.
Because "White Album" is just a small dessert before the meal, in the real main dish "Sword Dance", the requirements for film aesthetics must be higher than the artistic level in order to meet Zhou Yi's heart.
One day, the smooth side shows were filmed from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and 15 scenes passed, and the total number of times everyone in the audience was less than 20.
This progress greatly exceeded Zhou Yi's expectations and was incredible.
The scheduled shooting time for "White Album" is one month. After all, it is a simple campus plot and there are not many big scenes.
But if you keep following this speed, you may be able to do it all in more than ten days.
After one day, Lou Xiaoxiao pulled Jiang Yingyue away again. The two had a good relationship like best friend who had been with many years.
Zhou Yi always felt that these two people, especially Lou Xiaoxiao, were weird, but it seemed that the chemistry during the shooting was pretty good. If Lou Xiaoxiao could really maintain this state, it would be really thankful.
Back at the hotel, Zhou Yi started a routine review and discussion session with Sun Qingtong.
After tracing one by one on the computer screen, Zhou Yi nodded with satisfaction: "The angle selection and shooting timing of these lenses are very good. Qingtong, you are really a very powerful photographer!"
Sun Qingtong was still striving for excellence: "This, and the previous shot of the rooftop, I was deliberately done during the framing, and it was not handled well when pulling wide angles! Moreover, such problems cannot be compensated by editing, and they must be reshooted!"
Zhou Yi naturally would not sing the opposite tune with Sun Qingtong. This is his first drama directed by him, so of course he must do his best.
On the third day, after taking several shots, the crew moved to Bai Qin's villa.
Here is the filming of Donghesha's scenes, and the trio will discuss, prepare and practice songs here.
There are only three leading actors, and there are only six or seven photography props, so there will be no damage to the environment in Bai Qin's home, so she welcomes the crew very much.
Zhou Yi also met Bai Qin's daughter Bai Shuang, a somewhat introverted girl. She was a little shy when she saw that she was a little shy. Her favorite was Jiang Yingyue. The two of them had many common languages in music and both played the piano well.
The scenes here are mainly warm, and all three of them are working hard for the performances in the art performance, and the shooting was also smooth.
On the fifth day, the plot finally progressed to the concert session of the art performance, which was also the only big scene in the entire "White Album".
The shooting will be held in the auditorium of Qingya Middle School, where there are 2,000 seats, which can seat all the teachers and students in the school.
At that time, all teachers and students in the school will come to be extras and cheer for the wonderful singing of the three leading actors.
Zhou Yi, Lou Xiaoxiao and Jiang Yingyue all changed into exquisite and beautiful performance costumes on the promotional poster and began trial shooting without extras.
Lou Xiaoxiao sang seriously and enthusiastically, and Zhou Yi and Jiang Yingyue were also playing seriously. Although the real sound of the performance needs to be processed in the post-production and the studio version is added, Lou Xiaoxiao sang very well, and Zhou Yi and Jiang Yingyue’s playing must reach professional level.
Four cameras were set up here, and shot at the same time from four angles. The three of them played a whole song. Only then did they find that Sun Qingtong behind the camera was frowning, as if she had encountered some difficulties.
"What's wrong? Qingtong!" Zhou Yi walked up to ask.
"Zhou Yi, come and see!" Sun Qingtong replayed the video just now: "How do you feel?"
Zhou Yi also frowned. It was obvious that he, the male protagonist, was not outstanding enough.
"The costumes of the two heroines naturally attract the audience's attention, but your guitar show-off just now is pale, which makes you completely lose the balance. For the hero, you will also seem to be suppressed by the heroine!" Sun Qingtong said very seriously.
"White Album" is a youth love idol drama starring three times. If the male lead is not popular enough, it would be too bad.
Zhou Yi recalled the feeling of watching anime in his previous life. His eyes were completely on the two female protagonists. The existence of the male protagonist was almost optional, and it was indeed completely unbalanced.
