Entertaining Children

"I still say the same thing," Xiao Yao said to Shazhou and the others while sitting in the car, "If you don't want to go, you don't have to go.? Bayi Chinese? W≥W≥W=.≤81ZW.COM"

"Only Saner, you have no choice." Xiao Yao turned to Lin Qisan again, "You are the main character in this scene, and you must appear. Also, you are my apprentice now, and you feel a little bored with the optical long fist move. Right? You can take this as my physical fitness test for you, if you can climb up directly without stopping to rest, I will start teaching you the moves and skills of actual combat."

"Okay! Anyway, no matter if it stops in the middle, I will go up." Lin Qisan nodded and said, "You lead the way, I don't know how to get in." After speaking, Lin Qisan opened the door and got out of the car.

Xiao Yao took the dV and got out of the car following Lin Qisan. The two had just walked a few steps away when they heard the sound of the car door closing. Looking back, they found that Shazhou and the three girls had also followed.

"You invited us to have supper just now, obviously it was premeditated," Shazhou saw Xiao Yao looking at him, pointed at him with a smile, "Take it as a walk to digest food."

After boarding the top platform of this office building, everyone found that although the light here is not very bright, when you look around, you can just see the lights of the iconic high-rise buildings in the city center. And because of the terrain and the line of sight, it gave people a feeling that their place was higher than those seventy or eighty-story buildings.

"Xiao Yao, you really know how to find a place." After taking a breath, everyone lay on the railing of the platform and looked at the tall buildings in the city center in the distance. This feeling is really refreshing.

"The scenery is not bad," Xiao Yao smiled, "Now, do you think it's worth climbing the twenty-seven floors?"

"I'd rather take the elevator to watch during the day." Xu Yuan pouted.

"The scenery during the day is different from the scenery at night. Those buildings are not lit up, so it feels much worse." Xiao Yao replied, and then began to call Lin Qisan to take pictures.

A few simple shots didn't take too much time, but thinking about climbing up with great difficulty, Xiao Yao didn't immediately call everyone to retreat after finishing the shooting. Anyway, it is the last shooting scene tonight, and tomorrow there is only the night scene to shoot, and there is no shooting task during the day, so you can rest as much as you want, Xiao Yao simply asked everyone to rest for a while, and watch more night scenes from above.

After the hard work of the first day of filming, everyone had a good rest in the hotel during the day on the second day, and in the evening, the filming of the second day started again.

Shencheng Linhai is also one of the most important port cities in China, so there are many trade warehouses walking around near the seaside port area.

In the evening of the next day, Xiao Yao dragged a few people to a trading warehouse near the port area and finished shooting. Of course, Xiao Yao still did not spend money to rent the venue, but took a few people to find an idle warehouse for sale and rent, and stuffed two packs of cigarettes for the old man at the door, falsely claiming that he wanted to rent the warehouse, and take a look at the environment in advance Then decide with the facility whether to talk to the warehouse owner.

Regardless of the geographical advantages of the port area, operating warehouses here should be a very good business, but there are too many warehouses in this area, and the competition is fierce. When Xiao Yao came here to do business in his previous life, he had seen advertisements for warehouses for sale and for rent. He was quite clear about this. He visited here the day before yesterday, and the situation is indeed the same in this life. As long as he takes the time to search, he can still find idle of the warehouse. This kind of warehouse usually only leaves an elderly man as the janitor at night. It is boring and lonely at night. Xiao Yao has dealt with such people a lot in his previous life and knows how to deal with it.

Although Xiao Yao and his party did not look like businessmen renting a warehouse, but for the sake of two packs of cigarettes, the boring old man not only let them in, but also kindly opened the elevator in the warehouse for them and lamps. Anyway, there is nothing valuable in the warehouse, just some idle shelves and pallets, nothing can be stuffed into their car, and he is the only door to go in and out, and the old man is not afraid of them stealing things.

The problem of the venue was solved, and the shooting went smoothly. After about half an hour, Xiao Yao completed the shooting of the last remaining part of the shot with everyone's help.

"Bayi, how did you find these places?" On the way back, Lin Qisan couldn't help asking curiously, "Why do I feel that you are more familiar with Shencheng than I am?"

Xiao Yao smiled and didn't answer, but said in his heart: "Brother, can you tell me that I lived in this city for ten years in my previous life?"

After the mV shooting is completed, the next step is to carry out post-production. At this time, the New Year's Day holiday just ended, and the school began to attend classes.

Xiao Yao still plans to finish the editing and soundtrack work of this mV by himself. He has already produced several mVs, and his skills and experience are all right. The official version of the song has already been recorded, and there is no problem with the soundtrack material. What makes Xiao Yao difficult is that he still needs to make part of the picture look like a thermal imager or night vision goggles. This is not something that can be solved simply by adding a filter, but requires real post-screen special effects processing technology.

Xiao Yao has filmed several mVs, and this is the first time he has encountered this kind of problem, and he does not have the relevant knowledge and technology to solve this problem, but fortunately, Shen Xi has a related major. Just as school started after New Year's Day, Xiao Yao began to frequently take professional courses such as visual effects and image special effects processing technology.

The courses in the university are not limited to students. Even if you don't take this course, you are free to attend it. Xiao Yao had told the examiner teacher that he wanted to be a director as early as the art test, so for more than half of the semester, he also went to the classroom of the directing department. Some teachers and students in the directing department have already I know this star student of Shenxi Opera, and a teacher from the director department once suggested to Xiao Yao to change the department. This is not a secret in the school.

After New Year's Day, the teachers and students of visual communication majors and post-production special effects production courses were not too surprised to see Xiao Yao appearing in their classes again.

However, these few times Xiao Yao appeared in those places not just to study. Although Xiao Yao's passion for study is still quite strong, he doesn't plan to take care of all the work by himself in the future. A few minutes of mv and more than ten minutes of short films are fine for me to play by myself, I still have to shoot regular film and television works in the future, if I still do everything by myself, even if I exhaust myself, I guess I can't finish it. Therefore, in addition to understanding the relevant knowledge of this type of major, the most important thing is to find a helper when I attend this type of course these few times.

After taking several classes, after a period of observation and personal experience, Xiao Yao set his sights on a young teacher named Tong Luo in the school.

Most of the current post-production special effects involves computer software technology, which is a relatively new major. The teachers in this area of ​​Shenxi are not very old, and some of them have their own careers. This is the case for Tong Luo, who is only in his early thirties. Besides being the teacher of Shenxi, he is also the boss and main engineer of a special effects production company.

"Teacher Tong, I have something to ask you, can I talk to you?" Once after class, Xiao Yao ran directly to the podium, blocking Teacher Tong Luo who was still packing up and did not leave.

"Xiao Yao? I'm glad you came to my class." Teacher Tong Luo smiled when she saw that she was a famous star student in the school, "Did you not understand something in the class just now?" I take an open attitude towards students from other departments who come to observe my class, but after all, they are audit students, and some of them only come once or twice before disappearing, so the teacher does not require students who do not choose their own class . But if the students have questions, as a teacher, they will answer them patiently as much as possible. It has nothing to do with whether they are students who come to observe.

"It's not the content of today's class, but I have business matters I want to talk to you about." Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head.

If you can't do the post-production special effects yourself, you have to pay someone to do it. Xiao Yao found a teacher in his school, not because he wanted to use the teacher-student relationship to let him do it for nothing, but because of this relationship, it can be cheaper.

"Business? Are you going to introduce me to business?" Tong Luo said with a smile, "Then go to my office? Or...I don't have class later, do you still have class today? If you have time, how about Come directly to our company with me? I'll take you to my company for a visit before we talk."

Although Xiao Yao is currently most famous as a singer, he has also acted before, and his home studio is also involved in film and television. I heard that their studio invested in a TV series last year, and it is now in post-production. It’s not that TV series. With Xiao Yao’s current network resources in the entertainment industry, it’s not ruled out that there are other people who want to use him to find a special effects company for post-production special effects of film and television works, so when Xiao Yao mentioned the word “business”, In Tong Luo's eyes, Xiao Yao, who was not an ordinary student, was also treated directly by Tong Luo as a customer at this time.

"Okay," Xiao Yao immediately agreed after hearing Tong Luo's proposal, "I don't have class today, and I haven't seen with my own eyes how a special effects company does post-production special effects."

"Then let's go, take my car." Tong Luo quickly cleaned up the things on the podium, and greeted Xiao Yao.

Tong Luo's special effects production company is not far from the school. After the two arrived, Xiao Yao discovered that Tong Luo's special effects company was in the same creative park as Yin Xi's studio. , should also be quite convenient.

After entering the company, Tong Luo first took Xiao Yao on a tour, and also took a special look at the process of their company's employees making special effects. The whole company is not big, just a few large and small offices, and a dozen or so employees. Although it is called a company, Xiao Yao feels that this place is more like a studio. The number of employees and the office area are not as good as Yin Xi's studio.

Although the company is small, the technical level is still good. According to Tong Luo's introduction, their company's special effects production level is at least the first-class level in the country, if not the top in the country. After a brief tour of the company, Tong Luo also showed Xiao Yao all the company's previous signature works. From Xiao Yao's point of view, the effect of what he made was indeed very good, and Tong Luo didn't brag.

It's just that among these special effects works, most of them are games, and there are relatively few films and TV dramas. But this is also because the current domestic film and television production crews trust foreign special effects companies more in terms of special effects. They go to American companies if they have good conditions, and go to Korea and Japan to find special effects companies for special effects. The living environment of domestic special effects companies is actually are relatively average. A company like Tong Luo can receive a lot of business for game special effects production, and can make profits every year, which is considered to be a very good survival.

"You asked me to talk about business, it must be about special effects?" After introducing and seeing the company's signature works to Xiao Yao, Tong Luo asked Xiao Yao with a smile, "How is it? Our level should meet the requirements, right?" ?”

"Of course, good enough." Xiao Yao smiled. At this level, making mV special effects for yourself is definitely an overkill.

"What kind of work is that?" Tong Luo said, "The price is negotiable. If it is a well-known work and can help our company to do publicity, I can give some extra discounts."

"That..." Xiao Yao said with some embarrassment, "Actually, I shot an mV myself. There are about ten seconds of footage that need some special effects, and it's not too difficult. Of course, the price must still be based on According to your company's standards, there will be no less."

"mV? A total of ten seconds?" The disappointment on Tong Luo's face flashed away, but he immediately thought of Xiao Yao's identity, and immediately replied with a smile, and said to Xiao Yao, "What are the specific requirements? Your original material Did you bring it? I'll take a look first."

"I saved it in my network cloud storage account," Xiao Yao said, "give me a computer to use, and I'll download it for you to see."

The two were in Tong Luo's office. After hearing Xiao Yao's words, Tong Luo immediately picked up the laptop on his desk and handed it to Xiao Yao.

"Such a small picture is not difficult. How about it, I will make it for you for free. If you are in a hurry, I will arrange someone to make it for you today." Tong Luo looked at Xiao Yao's picture material and listened to him After the special effects request, generously said.

"Free? How embarrassing." Xiao Yao said politely, "Let's follow your company's price standard."

"It's okay, it's not troublesome for you to make this thing." Tong Luo smiled and waved his hands, "If you're embarrassed, just introduce some business to my company in the future. I know your family has a studio, film and television There are quite a few people in the circle who know this.”
