Chapter 962 Control the overall situation
"Director Cheng, how should the seats be arranged?"

"Director Cheng, do you see how the scene is arranged like this?"

"Director Cheng, how many machines do you want to use?"

"Director Cheng, the group performers have arrived, do you want to give them a lecture?"

……

This assistant director is called Cheng Lisheng, and he has been thinking about how powerful it would be if he could control a crew by himself.

But when it came time for him to take control of the overall situation, he didn't feel awe-inspiring at all, but rather dizzy.

He always thought that what he lacked was just an opportunity, but now he knows that he is still far away.

When all the questions came to him, his mind almost froze.

Seeing Cheng Lisheng flustered and flustered, Yi Shuihan frowned slightly.

Counting his previous life, Yi Shuihan has been in the industry for almost 20 years.

He knows very well that whether a person has the ability is definitely not just blown out.

How to shoot a scene, how to adjust the shots and camera positions, how to adjust the emotions of the actors, and how to arrange the scene are all exquisite.

It can be said that on-site shooting is an exam. If the director has no real skills, he will not be able to shock everyone.

As many actors have said, the director is as scary as a tyrant in the crew. This is exactly the performance of a director who controls the overall situation.

But now, under Cheng Lisheng's arrangement and management, the crew tended to go their own way, without coordination or reasonable scheduling.

An hour passed, and he was not ready for the shooting.

"Director Cheng, how should the camera position be arranged? You talk about this and that, and move around to waste time!" the cameraman said with a frown.

"Cheng Dao, Cheng Dao, when will the filming of this show start? The group of extras are getting impatient, and they want to increase the money!" The production manager also ran over panting.

"Director Cheng, I think it's better to rest today, let's talk about it after Director Xu wakes up!" Zhang Sichao, who played the role of Huoyun Cthulhu, also said with a frown.

Cheng Lisheng felt the pressure from the questioning eyes again and again, and finally couldn't say a word.

It wasn't nervous, because the people in front of him were people he knew, and he usually yelled at them, but this time, his upper and lower lips seemed to be connected by glue, and he couldn't say a word because of being aggrieved.

"Forget it, rest, rest, it won't be able to shoot at night."

"That's right, let's wait for Director Xu to wake up!"

Seeing that the crew was about to leave, Yi Shuihan knew that it would be impossible for him not to stand up.

Although it doesn't matter to postpone the shooting, it will not only disrupt the shooting opportunities, but also cause a lot of losses for the crew in one day.

"Everyone, stay safe and don't be impatient!" Yi Shuihan walked to the venue and picked up the loudspeaker and said.

Everyone naturally gave Yi Shuihan a lot of face. They all knew that Yi Shuihan was not only a leading actor, but also an investor in this movie!
"Director Xu is not feeling well, but today's shooting opportunities have been arranged, so Assistant Director Cheng will take the film!" Yi Shuihan set up the stage for Cheng Lisheng.

"It's not that we don't want to shoot, but those extras can't wait any longer, saying that we..." the drama manager in charge of recruiting extras muttered softly.

"Is this your first day working as a stage manager?" Yi Shuihan frowned and cursed, "The extras are paid [-] a day, and they work eight hours, is it eight hours now?

If the time is exceeded, they will naturally be charged an extra time fee, do they need to worry about it!
The filming hasn't started yet, so let them wait!If they don't like to act, let them go. It's hard to find leading actors, isn't it hard to find co-stars?

This kind of trivial matter also bothers the director, I don't think you dare to do it, do you?
Get out of here and deal with it immediately, if you can't handle it, just get out! "

"I...I got it." Yi Shuihan said that the director was so ashamed that he stepped back obediently.

Normally, Yi Shuihan would never say such a serious word, but at this time it was obvious that the extras were booing when they saw that Cheng Liqun couldn't control the situation, and the stage manager also came over to report stupidly, so Yi Shuihan couldn't help but get angry.

Everyone at the scene was silent. They had only seen Yi Shuihan's gentle smiling face on weekdays, but they didn't expect Yi Shuihan to be so terrifying when angry.

After dealing with the group performance, Yi Shuihan turned his head to Zhang Sichao, Wang Changqing and the others and said, "Mr. Zhang, Changqing, please be calm and don't worry. The filming will start soon. You can read the lines again. I will give you a speech later." You play."

"Success, it's all up to your arrangement!" Zhang Sichao and the others gave Yi Shuihan a face, nodded in agreement, and went back to read the script.

After that, it was the arrangement of shooting shots. Although Yi Shuihan had never been a director, he had stayed in this circle for nearly 20 years.

In fact, he also knows how to shoot, and he has more confidence after reading the original script!

Looking at the questioning eyes of the camera, lighting and other departments, he said decisively: "Give me three cameras, one at the door to take a panoramic view, and help me take pictures of the axes on both sides.

Prepare one for me by the window, wait for my order to shoot the shots of the boss of the ax gang and the master, keep the focal length still, and capture the overall outline as much as possible.

In addition, the camera with the crane arm took close-ups of Huoyun Cthulhu for me, and I had to record the whole process, especially when Huoyun Cthulhu spoke his lines.

Look at the corners when framing the shot, don't fool me!

There is also the props group, let me change the chair of Huoyun Cthulhu, although it is necessary to reflect the uniqueness of Huoyun Cthulhu, there is no need to get a plastic chair, you are treating the audience as idiots, the chair over there will help me.

There is also the lighting group. Because it is an indoor shot, I have done all the fill light. I want to see the expressions of each actor clearly.

Are you clear? "

Yi Shuihan stared at them, shouted loudly, everyone was startled, and replied involuntarily: "Understood!"

They had objections to Cheng Lisheng's orders before, not only because Cheng Lisheng changed his orders day and night, but also because he gave people a feeling of hesitation.

If you don't have confidence in yourself, how can you make others believe in him.

However, facing Yi Shuihan, they felt like they were facing Director Xu. The unquestionable, controlling momentum did not allow them to say a word.

Under Yi Shuihan's order, the production crew operated in an orderly manner.

Cheng Lisheng stared dumbfounded at all this. In addition to being grateful to Yi Shuihan for helping him stabilize the overall situation, he was more shocked and amazed by Yi Shuihan's talent as a director!

Although he has never been in charge of a camera alone, he is a serious director who has graduated from a major!

But at this time, he was completely compared by Yi Shuihan.

"Teacher Yi, I..." He was a little ashamed, and even more unbearable.

Yi Shuihan patted him on the shoulder and said: "Just do as I said, there is nothing wrong with the camera side, let's discuss the next scene together, it's not a big problem, I'm going to give a speech to the group now, your side Hold on tight!"

Cheng Lisheng looked at Yi Shuihan, who was several years younger than himself, and nodded heavily after a moment of silence.
