I really have special powers

Chapter 132 Shooting Plan
Director Liu was very efficient. He brought the contract to Yu Ze to sign the next day. The contract had been reviewed by Li Changzi with a lawyer in advance and was confirmed to be correct. It mainly dealt with issues of copyright and revenue sharing. In addition, the most important thing is the entire documentary. Yu Ze has the right to delete it. That is to say, first of all, during the filming process of the documentary, its content must be retained with Yu Ze’s permission. The final edited version The film is completed and then sent to the relevant departments for review.

This is equivalent to Yu Ze having considerable autonomy over his own documentary, which is also normal. But when shooting a personal documentary about a living celebrity, the conditions agreed by the celebrity must naturally include editing rights, otherwise the director can be free to shoot at will. ?

After signing the contract, it usually takes a lot of preparation work to start the formal shooting. It can take half a month at the earliest, several months at the earliest, half a year or even several years at the earliest.

Originally, Director Liu was just a niche director. If he wanted to shoot a documentary, he had to find ways to attract investment. The preparation time was more than ten times longer than the shooting time. But this time, after he received Yu Ze's verbal commitment that day, , several well-informed investors immediately approached him to invest in this documentary.

What is exaggerated is that these investors have no excessive demands. They do not ask for profit sharing or advertising placement. They are simply donating their love.

No, it’s not that there are no ads, they just require the names of their investors to be on the credits at the end of the film.

Director Liu readily agreed to this advertising request.

Therefore, the most troublesome financial requirement was skipped, and the contract was signed that morning. Director Liu brought the people over in the afternoon, leaving Yu Ze a little confused.

"Director Liu, you are moving very quickly."

Yu Ze said in surprise.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yu, everyone who comes has been checked by Officer Liao. They handle special cases, so they are more efficient."

Liu Huijun was smiling, and there were six or seven people standing behind him, which was not a lot of people.

When he was filming a rural documentary, there were only three people. He was the director, cameraman, and support staff...

"We need to film some beginnings of you in advance..."

Liu Huijun asked people to prepare. He took Yu Ze beside him and introduced him to the steps for the meeting. He also asked Yu Ze to look at him with admiration. Although this guy is just a niche documentary director, he is really talented. He only got permission yesterday and this morning. After signing the contract, the team was brought in in the afternoon. What's even more frightening is that Director Liu already had the rough shooting structure of the entire documentary in mind.

A character documentary should have two levels. One is the overall structure, which is to grasp the overall layout of the documentary, how to start the documentary, what content is arranged in the middle, what the content talks about, what to talk about after, and in what order it is arranged and ended.The second is the paragraph structure. As the name suggests, it is the structure of each paragraph of a documentary. In each paragraph, how to edit the picture, which shot to edit first and which shot to edit later, how to make the picture smooth, how to edit the picture to express the theme, etc. .

If it were another director, he might not be able to get it right even after thinking about it for a month or two, but Director Liu not only came up with the "script" at this time, but also "exaggeratedly" talked about his general arrangement, not to mention whether it could be filmed. A high-quality documentary, the speed of production is also impressive.

It's like an author who writes 10,000+ words overnight. Even if the content is all in white text, it's impressive that this coding speed can be called a robot.

So much so that Yu Ze had the illusion that this guy was also cheating?
"Director Liu, it would be a pity not to make movies with your ability."

Yu Ze couldn't help but said.

"Haha, documentaries and movies are completely different... How should I put it? I'm not very interested in movies. My favorite hobby in my life is documentaries. To tell you the truth, my favorite program when I was a child was to watch it in front of the TV on time every day. "animal world"."

Everyone has their own ambitions, but how many people in the world can turn their hobbies into work?Although Liu Huijun is not a famous director, he can be considered a successful person if he has achieved his current achievements, at least he doesn't have to worry about food and drink.

"But Mr. Yu, the shooting of character documentaries is not like movies. If it is fast, it can be completed in a few months. If it is slow..."

In fact, this is mainly because Yu Ze is so special. Like most famous people, when documentaries are filmed about them, they have often been famous for a long time and have left behind a lot of text, pictures, and video materials, which can truly reproduce the important life episodes of celebrities.

But how long did it take for Yu Ze to become famous?

It only takes more than a month to fully calculate.

There are a lot of discussions about him on the Internet, but there are too few written and video materials about him. To put it bluntly, there is very little information about his past experiences on the Internet. In addition, Yu Ze does not like to communicate on social network platforms. He did not accept interviews from reporters, and his whole person was shrouded in a mysterious fog.

Liu Huijun firmly believes that Yu Ze will definitely be a legendary historical figure in the future, so he is trying every possible means to shoot a documentary about Yu Ze. But that will be in the future, and there is too little information needed at present, so there is only one way, rely on time!
Yu Ze was not surprised and smiled slightly: "Director Liu, how long do you plan to shoot?"

"Mr. Yu, do you know the documentary "Lu Yao"?"

Liu Huijun asked.

"Uh, I don't know about that."

"The documentary "Lu Yao" was launched in 08 and completed in May 10. It premiered on Phoenix TV in November... It reproduces the life experience of the writer Lu Yao using real-life techniques and is divided into "Jingzhe" and "Gu Yu" Eight episodes of "Grand Ear", "Summer Solstice", "Great Heat", "Frost Descent", "Great Cold" and "The Beginning of Spring" cover his entire life!"

Liu Huijun's eyes sparkled with the flame of ambition, "Mr. Yu, please allow me to be arrogant. I may not be able to photograph your life experience, but I want to photograph your 30 years of life."

"30 years of life?"

Yu Ze couldn't help but be shocked by Liu Huijun's ambition.

"Yes, I would like to make a documentary about you that will be divided into three seasons every ten years. Each season will cover your ten years of life experience and achievements... I think your appearance will definitely have an impact on human history. To make a big difference, to trace your life story is to trace the changed human history.”

Liu Huijun said slowly.

For the first time, Yu Ze felt admiration for someone around him. How ambitious is this?
How long is a person's life?

There are actually people who are willing to spend 30 years to complete a job and a dream.

If Liu Huijun can really realize his plan, then he will definitely leave a strong mark in the history of documentary films.
