Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

The small bar had to be closed for a few days due to renovation. Everyone knew about this because a notice was posted at the door of the bar. However, out of curiosity, many people came during the renovation of the bar, but they were all kept out by the security guards.

It was not opened to the public until a few days later, but on the first day it was opened to the public not the original guests, but a group of younger men and women, and others were still not allowed to enter.

After asking around, I found out that a music video was being filmed inside, so the people who entered just now were all extras. Some people wanted to go in and watch the fun because they looked familiar, but today the security guard didn't give any face.

Normally, celebrities can enter by swiping their faces, and acquaintances can bring their friends in. Occasionally, some people who particularly want to enter will be given some benefits, but they will turn a blind eye.

But they will pay attention to the whole process. After all, it is easy to be a security guard here, not to mention the high salary. They also know very well that most of the guests in the bar are artists from their own company. If the people who come in annoy their own artists, their own

Your job will be lost, so you are particularly concerned about checking some cameras or video recorders.

In this way, even though there have been some minor disturbances in small bars in the past few years, and some people even used their status to harass female celebrities, in the end they were properly handled by the people in the company, and over time no one dared to cause trouble here.

There were a few acquaintances who wanted to go in today, but the security guard kept a cold face the whole time. Until a second generation promised more and more benefits and promised that he would only go in and take a look and then come out.

A security guard looked embarrassed and said: "Brother, it's not that I don't want you to go in. If it were any other time, I would definitely let you in, but it's really not possible today. The big boss said he was filming a MV for the company's artists. Everyone who went in just now

It's a confirmed actor. If you go in, you won't cause trouble. If the big boss sees that this is a job, you'll be gone."

"Big boss?" The buddy, who was itching to go in and take a look to satisfy his curiosity, was stunned for a moment.

"The big boss, the mysterious big boss in Haina, the big boss I haven't seen since I've been working in Haina for a year or two." The security guard said.

"Really?" This guy looked surprised.

"Of course it's true. Li Zongsheng, the boss of the company's record department, is accompanying me. He is a very famous song writer in Taiwan. How could it be possible that it's fake?

Moreover, this small bar was originally a place opened by the big boss for the company’s artists to relax. It has never been open to the public since it opened. If he didn’t say anything, who would dare to commandeer this place to shoot the MV?” the security guard assured with a serious look.

"This..." What the security guard said made the guy even more curious. After all, Haina Entertainment is one of the largest companies in China. I heard that it has as many big names as dogs and second-tier stars everywhere.

The awesome ones are not good.

The big boss of Haina is even more mysterious. It is said that he has a powerful background and is running around in Yanjing City. Someone once offered a 100,000 yuan to take a photo of Haina to see if this mysterious Haina boss looks good.

After trying three heads and six arms, no one succeeded, which added a bit of mystery.

So this guy wanted to go in and have a look, but the security guard obviously wouldn't let him in with a serious look on his face, which made him scratch his head.

In the small bar, Yang Dongxu was instructing the photographer to do the final inspection. He had been a director and shot a MV before, and he was familiar with the road and was very calm.

Many extras kept looking at him. He thought they were curious about his identity as a MV director and didn't care. Little did he know that after knowing that he was the CEO of Haina Entertainment, these people were looking at him as if he were an alien.

.

"First play a piece of music to liven up the atmosphere, and then play the music of the song. The people on the stage are ready to start singing along with the accompaniment of the song.

Although the final singing part will be edited out and replaced with the songs recorded in the studio, you should not be sloppy and sing well to avoid mismatching the lip sync later."

In addition, there were dozens of people in the small bar where the extras were performing, so the scene was a bit noisy. But it didn't matter, since we had planned before that we wouldn't need to record on site, so as long as there were no problems with the footage, it would be fine.

When the music started playing, the originally noisy environment became quiet, which made Yang Dongxu stunned. This was not the youthful and rebellious atmosphere he wanted for young people dancing to the disco.

Fortunately, as the music progressed, the atmosphere began to slowly pick up. At the request of the staff, the group members began to dance around both sides of the stage. Their bodies were a little stiff at first.

These people who usually like to dance and dance were at a loss as if they were good girls, but they slowly started to get better.

"Put on the music and take a picture." Although the environment didn't meet the requirements, Yang Dongxu obviously didn't take a few minutes of the MV to take a shot or something.

Instead, prepare one lens at a time to make it more precise, or shoot it back and forth several times, and then select some of the lens combinations you want, so take some shots first.

The accompaniment of the song was playing in the speakers, and at the same time, many musicians with guitars behind the stage began to play passionate music as required. The music I talked about was really played according to the accompaniment, but because I was a little nervous the first time, I didn’t stop playing it.

On the rhythm point.

But it doesn’t matter. All Yang Dongxu needs is the scene of him playing the guitar passionately. The songs are all recorded and matched in the post-production process, and the accompaniment of the songs is naturally matched together. There are not so many requirements.

Ella Chen Jiahua sang first, and it was a little out of tune just like the guitarist's move, but her expression was okay, so Yang Dongxu didn't call out and continued filming.

Then after about thirty seconds of filming, he shouted "Cut!"

"Move, be more cheerful, don't just stand there all the time. If you really can't find the indulgence you feel when dancing, just put your arms together and jump."

The extras, who originally felt as if they had arrived as the music continued, didn't know whether it was because the accompaniment played by the live band and the singing were no longer in tune, or because they suddenly thought about being filmed and were nervous, and their bodies became more and more nervous.

Get stiff.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Keep the first five seconds of the long shot, and delete the rest and start again." Yang Dongxu glanced at the captured image and ordered the photographer, and then said to the photographer.

He shouted to the group performers on the dance floor: "Jump along to the music and try to relax yourself."

After giving about half a minute of relaxation period, Yang Dongxu motioned to the sound engineer to start again. This time it was a little better than the first time. After all, except for the people on the stage, there were not many positive expressions, even from the side.

lens.

The flashing lights in the bar, coupled with the body jumping up and down and the raised arms, made the atmosphere a bit awkward, but the shooting effect looked okay from the lens.

It was just that the expressions of the three little girls on the stage were a bit stiff when they were singing, and they couldn't let go when their bodies were beating. So I filmed them back and forth several times in the first thirty seconds.

Because Yang Dongxu kept encouraging me to get better and better with more shots, so although it was a bit boring to shoot back and forth several times, the atmosphere on set was much better than at the beginning.

"OK, stuck, next section." After filming five or six times, Yang Dongxu shouted that the section was over, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Taking advantage of the good atmosphere, there was no single time to shoot the next section. This time it was much smoother than the first section and it took three more shots to pass.

Then the third section was quickly filmed, "OK, the three lead singers are going to take some close-up shots. Don't limit yourself to the instructor's movements. Relax and vent. Follow the music and follow your own ideas. But you need to sing the lyrics."

Part of it can’t be wrong.”

Once the background board of the extras is well shot, other parts need to be carefully crafted. After all, there are a lot of close-up shots, which is a bit demanding for shooting the protagonist.

"Okay, that's it. Let the male and female protagonists appear. Act a little more naturally, especially the female lead, to create some atmosphere." After taking a close-up shot of the three lead singers, Yang Dongxu looked at the return interview. He already had a rough model of the editing in his mind, and clapped his hands to indicate it.

The stage manager prepares other shots.

The MV must have a male and female protagonist, but it is different from other MVs where the male and female protagonists perform and the lead singer appears up, down, left, left, and right in the MV and sing as if they are supporting the male and female protagonists.

Most of the shots in this MV are of the three lead singers. Although the male and female protagonists of the MV are throughout the entire song, they are jump shots. The total length of the scene where the male and female protagonists appear in a song for more than three minutes is only about 30 seconds. So according to

Just capture a few close-ups of the established emotional line and intersperse it.

"Director..." The MV's intuitive drama between men and women began and the choreographer hurried over.

"What's wrong?" Yang Dongxu asked casually, focusing on the camera.

"Well...the heroine said she didn't want to do a kissing scene." The assistant said with an embarrassed and uneasy look.

At this time, he was actually very depressed. If it were on another set, he would have yelled and told the other person to get out. An unknown, third-tier starlet actually dared to ask for a kissing scene.

It's not like she's pretending to be reserved in bed.

But he didn't dare to do this in front of his big boss. After all, he was the big boss, so he asked for instructions during the entire filming process for fear that something would go wrong. So he hurriedly reported the scene where the heroine didn't want to shoot a kiss.

"Kissing scene?" Yang Dongxu was stunned when he heard the assistant's words. Then he recalled the scene in the MV. It seemed that the male and female protagonists kissed on the dance floor, and the female took the initiative to kiss the male.

This shot happens to be during the singing of a line of lyrics, and is used to highlight the lyrics. In other words, the entire shot of the male and female protagonists in this MV is used to match a few lines of the lyrics to highlight some of the lyrics.

"Didn't you explain clearly before shooting?" Yang Dongxu raised his eyebrows when he thought of the shot he wanted.

"Um..." The assistant looked embarrassed, looked at the big boss with a dissatisfied look, and her legs trembled: "The heroine is a friendly actress, recommended by an insider in our company, and she made a verbal promise at that time.

Since no labor is required, I just gave a rough outline of the plot, which may not be detailed."

After saying that, I started to sweat on my forehead.

Yang Dongxu frowned slightly and instantly understood the general outline of the matter. It was obvious that someone in the company did some favor to the MV heroine and sent her away.

Although the MV script states that the male and female protagonists will not have many scenes, this is a MV shot by boss Haina himself and has great selling points. If the song becomes a hit, even a few scenes will be valuable.

This promise was probably made to the heroine's manager. The heroine's plot may not have been made clear, or the manager may not have clearly communicated with her artist, so there was an unexpected incident where the heroine refused after knowing that a kissing scene was to be filmed.
