Chapter 49 Who doesn’t have any ideas yet
The closing banquet was much larger than the last gathering, and there was an endless stream of people toasting Cao Yang.
Normally, almost everyone would not come to toast like this.
In the domestic drinking culture, toasting is not just for just anyone.
For example, the crew members and various "technicians", such as photographers, lighting engineers, stylists, artists, etc., will definitely come over to have a drink with the director during the wrapping banquet.
But for the various assistants and other low-level staff in the crew, except those who are valued by the director, it would be a bit abrupt for you to come over to toast, and it might lead to asking for trouble.
Cao Yang's crew is different from traditional crews. The various assistants are almost all Nortel students, most of whom are juniors or seniors. It doesn't seem out of place to come over for a drink with this status.
In addition, they can come to the crew for internships. Cao Yang not only controls their internship evaluation, but also a very important point. Who doesn't want to take a shortcut by becoming a member of a famous director's team.
Not to mention actors. Since you are in this business, who doesn’t want to become famous? How many truly noble people are there?
Even if Cao Yang took a symbolic sip every time, he still drank a lot.
It can't be like this anymore. Cao Yang thinks that next time we hold a wedding banquet, we must set a rule. After everyone has done it together, they will find a reason and explain it clearly. No one will drink from it.
Seeing that there were still many people who were eager to try, Cao Yang hurriedly escaped.
Seeing Cao Yang going out, Che Xiao's eyes flashed not far away, and he calmly took a sip of tea, mainly to rinse his mouth, wiped his mouth with a tissue, chewed some gum, and then stood up.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you going?"
Dong Xuan asked next to him.
Che Xiao whispered: "I'm going to the bathroom."
After that, he walked out.
Wen Zhengrong secretly paused the hand holding the chewing gum, looked up, and couldn't help but say a polite greeting in her heart.
Little bitch!
"Xiaoxiao, wait for me, let's go together."
Wen Zhengrong also stood up, with a smile on her face. She grabbed Che Xiao's arm and refused to let go. Humph, who doesn't know your little thoughts? You are only thinking about good things at such a young age.
Che Xiao's smile froze, and Wen Zhengrong almost dragged her to the bathroom.
We happened to see Cao Yang coming out at the door of the bathroom, and Wen Zhengrong greeted him warmly, "What a coincidence, junior, are you okay?"
Che Xiao's carefully prepared plans were all disrupted, and his mind was still a little confused. He said stiffly: "What a coincidence, junior... No, senior, senior came to the toilet in person?"
Cao Yang smiled and nodded, "I'm fine. You are girls. Don't drink too much and pay attention to safety."
Seeing Cao Yang walk away, Che Xiao became angry and was about to shake off the arm held by Wen Zhengrong. Unexpectedly, Wen Zhengrong let go first and then walked to the bathroom without looking back.
Che stomped his feet stingily, gritted his teeth for a while, and then left angrily, not even going to the bathroom.
Cao Yang decided to cut the knot quickly. After returning, he picked up the cup and waited for most people to look over before saying: "Everyone, I am very happy that everyone can come together today, especially Teacher Wu and Teacher Liao, who came here specially from Xiangjiang. Thank you, thank you again for your joint efforts these days.
I will be doing post-production tomorrow, so I will withdraw today. You guys have a good meal and a drink. If anyone wants to sing karaoke later, let Teacher Cheng pay the bill together. ”
Not long after Cao Yang left, Yu Feihong also withdrew on an excuse.
After walking on the street for a while, Cao Yang found a place to sit down, took out his mobile phone and stared at the number "1206" in the text message for a while, and finally sighed.
Teacher Situ, I really didn’t mean to go against your words, mainly...
After thinking for a while, I couldn't think of a reasonable excuse, so I simply murmured, "The main reason is that I am young. It is normal for young people to be a little impulsive. Which young person can withstand such temptation? Teacher Situ can understand, right?" "At this moment, Cao Yang felt that he understood Lao Tian, Guoshi and Brother Kai a little bit. Like Brother Kai's red sister-in-law, if it were him...
Bah, I am a gentleman, I can't think about my sister-in-law, I can't think about it.
If you drink too much, if you drink too much, you must stop drinking next time.
In room 1206, Yu Feihong transformed into a female knight, with a heroic appearance. She looked down at Cao Yang, raised her chin, and said in a somewhat urgent tone: "Quick, tell me how my acting skills are."
Damn it!
They all have a little quirk, right?
"Very good, very good, with Li Xiaoran..."
The female knight groaned, trembled for a long time, and fell down on her horse.
The next day, Cao Yang came to Qingying Studio and invested in post-production.
There are not so many long shots in this editing, and the shots taken are much more trivial than last time, so editing is relatively time-consuming and labor-intensive.
The school gave three senior editing students as assistants, and Qingying Film Studio also sent an editor.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The editor's surname is Yang, and his name is Yang Qian. He is in his forties.
"Teacher Yang, thank you for your help. As for this movie, I already have a rough idea of the film in my mind. If you have any suggestions at work, you can give me any suggestions. I will adopt them.
Maybe you don’t know me well, I can be quite stubborn sometimes, so if I don’t adopt it, don’t take it to heart. ”
Let’s take a precaution first. Now that an editor has been hired, their job is to “glue” different shots together to form a coherent narrative.
When the average editor is editing, they hate it the most when the director is fooling around, slapping his hands at every turn and saying something is wrong and lacks a sense of power.
What does the editor want?
The director opened up about his thoughts, what theme the film should express, and what kind of narrative structure the film should have. He couldn't generally say that this part is not strong enough, and that part lacks the desired feeling.
No one is a roundworm in someone's stomach. Who knows what your strength and feeling mean? Be specific.
For example, cut out 6 frames here and transfer them to the scene and shot.
Only in this way can we communicate effectively, avoid quarrels due to differences, and improve work efficiency.
What Cao Yang means here is to tell the editor, I know how to cut, but because the workload is heavy, you are here to help. You only need to edit according to my wishes, so that everyone will not have different opinions and avoid quarrels.
Yang Qian nodded. Hou Keming had already told him that based on Cao Yang's opinion, he only needed to play support.
Now that it’s all said and done, let’s get started.
Yang Qian finally saw the difference in Cao Yang. He seemed to have a finished film in his mind. There were many shots that looked good. If it were Yang Qian, he would have to hesitate and try many times.
But not Cao Yang. He just looked at the before and after shots and knew how to choose. He didn't hesitate at all and he would give up what he should give up without hesitation.
If other directors were faced with this situation, Yang Qian would dare to bet on his apprentice's happiness for the rest of his life. Their first thought would definitely be to want them all. They can't give up this one, and they can't throw away that one.
After a big argument with the editor in the end, you may still say, "Let's cut two and have them ready. We will see which one is better and then choose."
As a result, neither of them may be used, which wastes time.
This is the first time I have received a reward since I opened the book. I am very excited. I would like to thank the boss "ssssbc" for his support. Thank you! Thank you brothers for your monthly votes and recommendation support. I will add an update tonight and it will be uploaded around 8pm. Thank you again for your support, brothers and sisters!
