Chapter 9 Do you still film?
"Innocence" is Bai Songchun's second album after "Pure White". As a continuation of the Pure White Trilogy, after the failure of the pioneer "Pure White", Bai Songchun placed great hopes on it.

For this reason, she not only spent a lot of money to hire someone to create a title song for herself, but also traveled all over the country to shoot the MV.

When I was shooting the countryside, the real location was not in Gaocun.

But because I spent too much budget when filming other MVs, I had to take the wrong strategy and stopped by the lighting engineer's hometown, Gaocun.

As it turned out, this trip seemed to be on the right track.

At the door of a homestay, the director wearing a peaked cap squatted on the ground, flicked the cigarette ash, and asked back:
"Xiaoya, hasn't Xiaobai gone to buy songs? How did you get it so far?"

"Maybe we need to discuss it more!" Wen Ya stood outside the house, raised her feet and looked in the direction of the school.

"I don't understand Xiaobai, how good a song can a country teacher write? Can it be better than a professional singer?" Someone complained.

"But his "Rice Fragrance" is really nice!" Wen Ya recalled the cheerful melody again, and felt that Chunchun's sister insisted on buying it, and it was not capricious.

"You should call and ask if you are still filming today. If you don't shoot, I will go to the hotel in town. It's too hot here!" the director said impatiently.

Wen Ya looked at the sweat on everyone's faces, just took out the phone, before unlocking it, she saw a man and a woman walking towards her at the end of the path by the door.

"Hey, I'm back! I'm back!"

Everyone stood up and looked around, and when they saw Xu Ran's face clearly, they all showed strange colors.

This teacher is very young, and his appearance is also very good. Standing with his boss, he has a sense of sight.

Putting away the parasol, Bai Songchun said with a smile:
"Let me introduce to you, this is Xu Ran, the teacher of Gaocun School, and now he is also a member of our Pure White!"

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, didn't they go to buy songs?Why did you recruit people in?

"Hi everyone, my name is Xu Ran, please give me your advice in the future."

"Hello, Mr. Xu, I heard my cousin Zhang Hai mentioned you. You are very popular in the village!" The lighting engineer who brought everyone to Gaocun said with a smile.

Gaocun is not poor, but it is far away from the county seat, so many people don't want to come here, and Xu Ran, a young teacher who is willing to come, is really touched, because he is happy for the children in his hometown.

Everyone greeted Xu Ran and introduced themselves.

After getting acquainted, Bai Songchun said: "Director Jiang, we won't be filming for the next two days. I have a new song to be included in the album, and I want to give it all the rest!"

Director Jiang nodded, and then asked her, "Do you have any idea about the MV of the new song? Do you need to exchange attractions?"

"No, on the way here, I talked with Mr. Xu about the MV of "Daoxiang". I think it's very good. Let me tell you."

The "Taoxiang" MV given by Xu Ran is the one on Earth.

It's about a man who's out of work, broke, and filled with negativity, then returns to the country, finds his childhood joy, and ends up being positive.

The story is very simple, and it is not difficult to shoot.

In the bedroom temporarily used for work, the director who listened to Bai Songchun finished speaking and read the lyrics nodded and said: "I think it's very good, the theme of the story and the song are consistent."

"Then let's shoot like this!" Bai Songchun made up his mind.

Director Jiang thought for a moment, and thought of the hot weather here, he said, "Boss Xiaobai, part of the MV is based on rural areas, so we can also use what we filmed yesterday, which can save some expenses."

After that, he passed the notebook to Bai Songchun to read.

When we were away yesterday, the director team first took pictures without Bai Songchun and Jiao Ruiying.

Many of the original MVs were about rural scenery and villagers' lives, and "Daoxiang" also needs these.

After watching it again, Bai Songchun asked: "Mr. Xu, these lenses should be useful, right?"

She just asked casually, and Xu Ran said, "It's okay!"

But his answer made the director a little dissatisfied, what is it?

"Mr. Xu, you can raise your opinion. Although you don't know how to shoot, you are the audience and the creator of this story. If you are not satisfied, it means that I can't shoot well."

Bai Songchun glanced at Xu Ran, paused for a moment, and said: "It's okay, you can express your opinion. Director Jiang is not a narrow-minded person, I can see that you should have your own opinion."

Now that everything has come to this point, Xu Ran has no choice but to give his own opinion:
"Then I will briefly talk about my own opinion. First of all, these scenes are very beautiful. I usually don't notice that Gaocun is so beautiful. But there is one thing, that is, the movement scenes are a bit frequent. This should be to cater to you. The previous song. "Daoxiang" can try to shoot with a fixed lens, which can subconsciously give people a sense of stability and play a certain role in highlighting the theme. Then use more flat shots, which give people a sense of equality and kindness .The other thing is that these shots should not have been done in post-production. When the post-production is done, the warm golden yellow tone can be used appropriately to bring out the male lead's getting rid of irritability and becoming positive!"

After finishing speaking, Xu Ran found that Bai Songchun and the director were staring at him in a daze, as if they had seen something incredible.

"You can still film?" Bai Songchun couldn't believe it.

She didn't know if what Xu Ran said made sense, but those fixed shots, flat camera tones, etc., sounded very bluffing.

No, that's not called bluffing, that's called professionalism!
And when the director heard that passage, he felt his face burning hot, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, I apologize for what I said just now, what you said just now is very true!"

Xu Ran smiled: "I just mentioned a few words casually, you don't need to waste time and money to re-shoot."

"No, reshoot!" Bai Songchun said firmly.

I still don't care about these two or three hours and money, everything is just for the new album to be flawless.

"This reshoot, I would like to invite you to shoot with Director Jiang, is that okay?" She asked Xu Ran in a discussing tone.

"it is good."

"Mr. Xu, have you ever learned how to shoot?" the director couldn't help asking.

Like Bai Songchun who heard "Daoxiang" back then, he saw professional knowledge in the operation of the other party.

Bai Songchun was also very curious about where this guy came from?Know music, but also filming?

There are many musicians who are actors in the entertainment industry, but not many become directors, and many of them are just pretending to be famous, and the real filmmakers are others.

Xu Ran gave a random reason: "My roommate in college minored in photography, and I occasionally read his books."

This explanation made the director skeptical, is the shooting really that simple?
At the same time, Bai Songchun also called it too fake in his heart.

She just doesn't believe it, she can't accept such a character design!

This is a woman, no, this is a girl, a girl's sixth sense!
 Changed the contract status, that, that is to say, that is to say, yes, yes, yes, tipping, tipping...
