China Entertainment started from art school

Chapter 50 Start preparing for a short play

There are still many places worth seeing in this country. In winter, you can go to Hokkaido and the central part of the island country.Hokkaido is very beautiful, you can use it as a wallpaper if you take a picture, but there are really many people.

After shopping around, I returned to China, first went to Yangzhou, and met with my classmates in Yangzhou.

Song Hairong, Wang Yajing, Zhu Miaotong and members of the "Aurora Band" all harassed her again.Most of them are in universities in Yangzhou, and a few are in surrounding cities. They try to come as much as they can—although they also got together at home a few years ago.

They all envy Li Jingkun, because they have been in school for a long time, and his winter vacation is not over yet.

It was almost over, and after two or three days in Yangzhou, he flew to Kyoto.

In May, he decided to make a short play, because in fact, he has already shot a lot of short films of a few minutes since high school, and it is time to practice the longer content.

And when I was in high school, no one helped me take the camera. Now that I have Wang Yang and the others, I can occasionally participate in the acting to hone my acting skills.

"It's a bit too fast, isn't it? You're only a freshman."

After listening to Li Jingkun talk about the plan, Su Zhijun said.

"No, I have made two short films since high school, and one of them is 18 minutes long. I must continue to increase the difficulty and length." Li Jingkun said.

"According to what you introduced, there are seven or eight main roles, plus the small supporting roles, there are more than a dozen people. Then there are director team, photography team, field management team, etc., at least dozens of people. , are you sure you can hold on now?"

"That's why I made a movie as soon as I came up, and took a three-episode short play to practice first."

"...It's good if you have confidence. After the script is finished, let me have a look, and make a shooting plan." Su Zhijun said.

"Okay." Li Jingkun said.

"The budget also needs to be calculated. How much should you prepare?"

"I don't know yet, but I still have a little money, let's calculate it according to the normal shooting budget, 30 to [-] will do."

"Okay, as long as you have a solid foundation in your heart." Su Zhijun nodded, only a person like him who has ideas and a little money can shoot short dramas so quickly.

The short play that Li Jingkun is going to shoot is called "The Days of Leaping into the Sky". It has three episodes in total and tells the story of the study and life of several high school seniors who are seriously partial to majors.

After spending a few days writing the content of the first episode, Li Jingkun told Wang Yang, Guo Junli and Fang Weida about it.

"We plan to shoot three episodes together, each episode is about 20 minutes, and the total is about 60 minutes, which is almost the same as a movie.

But the overall difficulty is much lower than making a movie.It’s just that it’s more difficult than the short plays we made before, so I’m going to ask if you have time, and help me when you have time. "

The three of them were a little surprised by Li Jingkun's pace, and there were many questions they wanted to ask.

"Really? Is the script written?"

"Will there be a lot of crew members by then?"

"When do you plan to start shooting? How long is the cycle?"

Li Jingkun said: "Now that the first episode has been written, the shooting plan is also in progress. The initial plan is to finish filming in about half a month. Now we are starting to prepare. Everything is done and it will be the summer vacation, so we plan to start shooting in July. Everyone will be paid. .”

What Li Jingkun said was quite serious, so they didn't joke around and thought about it seriously.

Wang Yang was the first to say: "I'm fine. I don't have any plans for the summer vacation, let alone the opportunity to participate in a crew."

Guo Junli said, "What job do you want us to do?"

Li Jingkun said: "Same as our previous cooperation, of course you are responsible for the positions of assistant director and cameraman, but you may also need help with other chores. After all, there is no way to fill every position."

Guo Junli nodded. In fact, it depends on the person. Of course, there are many things you can do if you want to.

Fang Weida said: "You said there is a reward, how much is it?"

Wang Yang and Guo Junli's families are better. They don't care about remuneration, and they are willing to come even if they don't give money.But Fang Weida's family conditions are average.

"We are a small crew with a low budget. I calculate it on a monthly basis. Although the filming time is half a month, I need your help in the preparatory period. Therefore, the compensation is calculated on a monthly basis. Each of you is paid 3000 yuan. .”

Fang Weida didn't say anything, he didn't know whether he felt less or more.

But Wang Yang said: "I don't need it, right? It would be great if I could participate."

"I don't need it either," Guo Junli said.

"It's different this time," Li Jingkun said, "We didn't waste much time when we made a short film of three to five minutes before, and we also helped each other. Of course it's okay if you don't charge money. But this time, after all, it will delay your time for a month. Follow the normal procedure."

Fang Weida smiled and said, "Anyway, you are rich, right? A song can sell for 30 yuan, and [-] yuan for a photographer is not too much."

Hiring a photographer for [-] a month is certainly not a lot, but first of all, everyone is still a student, and there is still a big gap between the skills and professional photographers;
Second, everyone is a student, and he also wants to give them a chance to hone;

Thirdly, he will determine the visual style and storyboard script of the short play, and then I just hope to shoot according to his determination.

Moreover, he had also discussed with Su Zhijun about the remuneration. To be honest, according to the current prices, 3000 yuan for a first-year student is not too little.

However, if the ideas are not consistent, he will not force them.

……

"Yo, rare guest, did you come to the class in person?"

One day after school, I met Da Tiantian on campus, and Li Jingkun greeted her.

Zhao Tiantian suppressed a smile: "What do you mean by yin and yang? Who told me to be busy."

"Hey, it's better for you, there is a company to help you solve everything."

Zhao Tiantian is the real rich and self-willed. Most of the other actors have to be recommended by others, or go to an interview to have the opportunity to act.

As for Zhao Tiantian, no one was looking for him, and he didn't participate in the audition, so he invested his own money and became the heroine himself.

Last year's TV series "Biography of Grandson" was like this, and this year's "My Beautiful Boss" is going to be filmed as well, and the supporting role for her is also someone who has been famous for a long time.

Although Li Jingkun still pays for the filming by himself now, he still has a lot to contribute. He has to be the producer, the scene manager, the drama manager; he also needs to be the director and screenwriter.

Of course, the storyboard script was done by myself, but in order to reduce the pressure, I invited a senior from the animation department to help.

Although I am very motivated to do it, there are still a lot of troubles when there are too many things.

"Rich woman, buy me a cup of coffee." Li Jingkun said.

"Go, it's so ugly." Zhao Tiantian said, "Call again."

"Brother, please give me a glass of wine."
