They are all too deep into the drama!

Chapter 290 The crew with frequent problems

"Come on, check it out one last time, make sure nothing goes wrong!"

On the filming set, director Hu of the crew held the intercom and reminded him tirelessly.

The cast that Director Hu took over this time all had outstanding acting skills and good images, and he was quite satisfied with the shots.

It was just that the actors were fine during the filming, but it was because the crew structure was a bit bloated, and there were many novices among the staff. The lack of integration led to frequent accidents.

In the week since the filming started, either there were errors with the props, or there were various problems with the set, lighting, and camera, which seriously slowed down the filming schedule.

Fortunately, most of the reasons are not due to his director. Huo Chengyin, who is known as a producer, naturally has no intention of taking responsibility.

However, when shooting other scenes, if something goes wrong, the worst thing is to retake it.The management didn't care, so why should he, a director, worry about it?
It's just a detective drama of the Republic of China, but what was filmed today was the male lead running on top of a train, with scenes of explosions.

If something goes wrong with a shot like this, it's no joke.

It is precisely because of this that he can't help but be careless!
As all departments were ready, Director Hu gave the order to start filming.

There were sudden explosions all around the set, and smoke and dust were everywhere.

The supporting villain with a martial arts background in front was agile and quickly ran forward with his head down.

Han Fei, the second male lead played by Shi Xiaolong, was holding a gun, awkwardly sticking his head out of the connection between the carriages, and then yelled out a line that is commonly used by guards and policemen in any era:

"Don't run!"

Shi Xiaolong, who was born as a child martial arts star, plays a rich man in this series of movies who is knowledgeable and proficient in encyclopedias, but clumsy.

The crew even contacted this person through Huo Mingjie.

In the past two years, "Young Bao Qingtian" has been frequently replayed on various local stations, and Shi Xiaolong's popularity is still quite wide.

However, like Huo Mingjie, he also faces the problem of a fixed acting path.

So after he heard about the character setting, he was quite interested.In addition, he had become a friend after working with Huo Mingjie, so he directly agreed.

Since it is a clumsy setting, it is naturally impossible to see Shi Xiaolong showing off his power in the movie.

So when he saw the villain climbing on top of the train, he could only become anxious.

At this time, the male protagonist Zhong Lang, played by Huo Mingjie, climbed onto the roof of the train with great agility.

The top of the train is about three meters above the ground. Some people who are afraid of heights may have weak legs standing here, let alone running and chasing on it.

But for Huo Mingjie, this is naturally not a problem.

Huo Mingjie shook off his brown suit, revealing the white shirt underneath.

He already looked thin when dressed, but had a muscular figure when undressed. At this time, he was also wearing a shoulder holster, which made his muscles tight and strong.

Then he saw him bowing slightly, and he immediately rushed out like a cheetah.

When he encountered the connection between the carriages, he even jumped over without hesitation and held down the fleeing villain.

A set of movements were smooth and agile, making Director Hu, who was sitting in front of the camera, immediately feel comfortable both physically and mentally.

After taking over this troubled and troublesome crew, producer Huo Chengyin was still a layman who didn't take care of much.Less than half a month later, Director Hu felt like white hair was sprouting from his head.

Fortunately, the cast and crew were all very good, otherwise he wouldn't know if he could have held on...

But this good mood did not last for half a quarter of an hour. When Director Hu was checking the material captured by other cameras, he suddenly became furious.

"What's going on, what's going on, why is there something wrong with the camera over there!" As the director roared, the crew that had just finished filming became noisy again.

Huo Chengyin, who held the title of crew producer, stood there with his hands on his chest, watching silently as the assistant director led the crew to rush to the camera with the problem.

After checking, I discovered that the camera position just now was not positioned properly, which resulted in the camera not being able to capture all the shots from that angle.

An action and explosion scene that was obviously very effective actually went wrong for this rather ridiculous reason, and may even need to be reshot.

Director Hu was so angry that his face turned red. He stood up suddenly and walked over there, using his Mandarin mixed with Cantonese voice to curse the staff there bloody.

Huo Chengyin didn't come forward, he just stood there like nothing happened.

He is very aware that many of the problems that arise in the crew today are due to the fact that too many people have been hired by his own production company, which has resulted in a bloated structure, complex personnel, and frequent problems on the crew.

In fact, there is nothing that can be done about it. The uncle and nephew's production company has just been established, and most of the people they have hired are newbies, and they are not well-trained, so it would be strange if there are no problems!

Fortunately, the director of the crew, the experienced director Hu, was able to maintain the filming schedule well.

Well, after the crew finished filming, they had to give director Hu a big red envelope, otherwise he would be sorry for his gray hair during this period!
Fortunately, the final scene did not need to be reshot, and the material shot from other camera positions was barely feasible.After all, the explosion scene is no different from others. In addition to being expensive, it is also very dangerous.

Director Hu really has no confidence in the crew he has now. If possible, he can shoot as few shots as possible of such accident-prone scenes...

After finishing the filming of this scene, Huo Mingjie refused the help of the staff next to him, turned over quickly and jumped directly.

Seeing his second uncle leaving the set, Huo Chengyin, who had been hiding next to him just now, took two steps around and came to Huo Mingjie's side.

Huo Mingjie saw that his cheap nephew was somewhat avoiding Director Hu, and suddenly laughed, shook his head and said:
"There's no need to feel so guilty!"

Hearing this, Huo Chengyin sighed softly and said:

"It's okay if you don't feel guilty!"

"How long has Director Hu been here? I've seen him age with my own eyes... I wouldn't be surprised if he even gives up his responsibilities one day!"

The crew has frequent problems, isn't it because of the regular employees they arranged to train?

It's because he is a big benefactor, otherwise he would have been kicked out all by himself...

Hearing this, Huo Mingjie felt a little helpless and could only say:
"After a period of running-in, it should be a little better!"

"We still have too many new people... I thought it was simple at first. An excellent film and television production team is not so easy to cultivate!" Huo Chengyin sighed.

Speaking of this, Huo Chengyin gritted his teeth and said:
"We still have to continue to recruit talents, and finally we will directly get a well-structured team!"

When Huo Mingjie heard this, his brows moved and he couldn't help but ask:

"Go to Hong Kong Island to dig?"

There are not many outstanding film and television production teams in the mainland these days.

Huo Mingjie has filmed so many movies since his debut. From the director to the cameramen and set managers, basically all of them are from Hong Kong Island.

When Huo Chengyin heard this, he hesitated and said:
"The complete team on Hong Kong Island is a bit expensive, and the attitude is a bit high... Let's take a look!"

And there is another reason. The connections between the uncle and nephew in Hong Kong Island are basically through the relationship between Tangren.

Sugar Man's main business is film and television production, but he may not be willing to help!
