Chapter 1032 The problem is serious
Directors are great, but directors are not omnipotent.

Not to mention making movies, even if it is an ordinary variety show, there are hundreds of people working together.

With such a huge workload, the director must not be able to cover everything, so the assistant director is often required to share the pressure.

For example, the recording of the interview started this afternoon. Generally, Director Yan and another director surnamed Tang work together for this job.

This configuration was the last recording.

Director Yan controls the rhythm, while Director Tang is in charge of the filming.

And this kind of matching is generally fixed, because every director has his own style, so it is difficult for a director to form a tacit understanding with another unfamiliar assistant director in a short period of time.

This will seriously affect the shooting progress and effect.

But facing Li Shiqing's question, Lao Liu waved his hands with a smile, with a somewhat helpless expression:

"Normally, this is the case, but the problem is that Old Tang is going on vacation here, and his youngest daughter is going to have a baby this month, so he needs to take a month off.

Director Yan originally planned to let me do it for a while, but the problem is that I have to be responsible for the construction of the venue the day after tomorrow. The time is too tight, and I really can't spare time. It just so happens that you know how to shoot. "

Saying that, Lao Liu looked at Li Shiqing, and asked with some eyes:

"How about it? Are you interested? It's a rare opportunity. Do you want to try being a director?"

Li Shiqing looked a little hesitant, but from the bottom of her heart, she was actually eager to try.

But there are some problems in this, that is, she has never been exposed to these things before, and her so-called understanding of photography is just some superficial knowledge taught by her old father, plus she has nothing to do in her daily life.

Compared with professionals who rely on this craft for a living?
Li Shiqing is still very self-aware, so she didn't agree immediately, but said entangledly:
"Slightly interested, but I haven't tried it before, so don't screw it up."

Old Liu on the other side waved his hand, with a disapproving look on his face: "It's okay, this is a web series and not a movie, so don't worry and come here boldly."

Looking at the other party's appearance, Li Shiqing thought about it, and finally she nodded:
"Then let me try?"

Old Liu smiled and raised his hand and made an OK gesture: "That's it, you don't have to eat at the second ring road at noon, and then follow me to the program group, and introduce a few acquaintances for you to get acquainted with."

After speaking, he waved his hand, turned and walked out.

As for Old Tang?

As an assistant director, the other party's month-long or even longer vacation seems to be a big deal.

I believe that many people understand what it means to take a sudden vacation at this time, and it is still a month-long vacation, which may mean that he will lose his qualification to participate in this variety show.

Besides, his position is not low.

You must know that the entertainment industry does not raise bastards, and those who can become assistant directors will not be weak in terms of ability or connections. Such people are generally called reserve directors.

But his departure doesn't seem to matter that much.

Because the entertainment industry lacks everything, except for talents who want to improve.

This circle is too complicated, no one is irreplaceable.

Not to mention Lao Tang as an assistant director, even a gold medal director like Director Yan is at risk of being replaced, isn't he just a director?

Many big Hollywood directors, even if they have made many classic works, only allow two chances of failure in their careers.

The entertainment industry is cruel, from actors to directors.

But the entertainment industry is very tolerant, if it can bring benefits to everyone?

Nothing seems to be intolerable.

In the afternoon, two temporary workers built the room in less than 10 minutes. Behind them was a cheap poster with the logo of New Era Rap printed on it.

There is a simple high round table next to it.

Depending on the situation, there will be sponsor products here in the future.

Li Shiqing was sitting in front of the camera, facing several old masters who were adjusting the camera, and Director Yan who was reading carefully with a script in his hand.

Beside Li Shiqing, several makeup teachers who are already familiar with her are doing the final touch-ups for her.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, until 3 minutes later, when Li Shiqing's final touch-up was over, several cameramen next to her also made an OK gesture.

Through the adjustment of the light, the original light in the room and the supplementary light, these skilled photographers adjusted the camera position and shooting effect to the best state.

Director Yan cleared his throat, looked up at Li Shiqing with a questioning expression:

"Shishi, how are you preparing here?"

Li Shiqing raised her hand and made an OK gesture:
"Don't worry, I'm ready."

After the words fell, Director Yan nodded. He straightened his collar and asked with a smile:

"Okay, I'll ask you my first question now."

"Are you nervous about the competition the day after tomorrow? According to my understanding, this seems to be the first time you have formally participated in a concert on such a big stage."

It's as if the movie is not shot according to the complete timeline, but is composed of multiple shots, and finally a story is pieced together through editing.

The same is true for variety shows. Many scenes are recorded before, even with hints of guiding language.

The version that the audience sees is just the version that the director wants the audience to see.

Even the reality show that claims to be the closest to reality still has traces to follow in essence.

The so-called layman watching the excitement is what the insider said. For example, the question asked by Yan Dao at the moment seems to be a very casual question, but in fact there is a deep routine hidden in it.

Because of the next conversation between the two?

In essence, it is not for the other party to hear, but for the audience a month later.

What Yan Dao asked was not whether Li Shiqing was nervous, but to consciously strengthen the memory of Tang Feng's poetic feelings. Li Shiqing knew exactly what to say next.

To be precise, in this individual interview with the contestants, at least in this part of Li Shiqing, she is the absolute protagonist.

Because the content of this paragraph was discussed by her and several other staff members at noon.

Old Liu said before that he let Li Shiqing have a director's addiction. Although it was a joke, it may not be serious.

And more importantly, through the analysis of the show New Age Rap?
She discovered an extremely serious problem with this show!

Because it is an online variety show, not a normal variety show, and the current New Era Rap is exclusively sponsored by Xiabuxiabu, and it belongs to Xiabuxiabu's Yiyan Tang.

Although Director Yan is a director, he is only a director, otherwise he would not agree to the request of the other party to increase the length of time.

Increase the duration of the webcast?

It seems very simple, just need to fill in some tidbits and add some content.

But the real situation may be quite the opposite. After all, this is a talent show, and not all content can be added to it, and it must be high-quality?

Director Yan needs at least three to seven hot spots for each issue!
But the problem is that the effect of the show is not Chinese cabbage, you can pick it up in the fields.

Every effect of a variety show is a gift from the God of Variety Show.

From the beginning of October to the end of October, nearly a month, there is only one program effect without any artificial factors.

That is, at the beginning of the show, after ty gave up the performance, Xia Zhiyu followed closely, and then clashed with Huang Zitao this time.

And strictly speaking, this cannot be regarded as the effect of the program, it should be a serious mistake in the variety show.

And all the hot spots after that, whether it was the gambling between Jiang Yunsheng and Huang Zitao, or the scene where the lazy team crazily dissed other people during the first performance.

In essence, it is the result of the director's expectation and guidance.

But there is a problem here, although Director Yan is trying to maintain the balance between the draft and the reality show.

As the show goes on, there will be fewer and fewer things to broadcast.

The conflict between the reality show and the draft will become more and more intense. The limitation of the venue and the players' desire for success will further weaken the part of the reality show.

The problem is that although Director Yan tried his best to include a lot of reality show segments in the show, the essence of rap in the new era is still a variety show, not a reality show!
