Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 114 First time

At this time, Chen Linfeng was communicating with the photographer about the next shooting plan.

During the first half of the year, his teacher asked him to prepare the semester assignments for the end of the year.

At that time, Chen Linfeng was thinking about what kind of work would not require very high specific requirements from the director, but would still be amazing when it came out.

This was the first thing he thought of.

"The Water Ode to the Goddess of Luo River" later sparked widespread discussion on the Internet.

This short film is actually an underwater dance. There is no story to speak of. It all depends on the performance of the dancers, the shooting of the photographer and the post-editing.

The artistic skills of the director team should not be underestimated. Overall, apart from being short, the film has no shortcomings.

Liu Qianqian already has a good foundation in dancing, and after a period of intensive practice, she was able to try filming.

Chen Linfeng also specially invited the coach of the synchronized swimming team to provide on-site guidance to prevent any problems during the filming process.

In addition, he also invited famous dancers in the industry to ensure the best shooting effect.

Photographers are all top-notch experts in underwater photography. Photographers who specialize in these small items are actually relatively easier to find.

Including makeup teachers, costume designers, venues, etc., all are top-notch.

Now, the money Chen Linfeng earned "with great effort" has finally been put to good use.

He was looking forward to seeing what it would be like to see a goddess at the peak of her powers play the ethereal goddess Luoshen.

Chen Linfeng introduced several teachers present to Liu Xiaoli and Liu Qianqian.

Liu Qianqian didn't understand anything and just nodded.

After listening to the introduction, Liu Xiaoli was quite satisfied.

When she heard that her daughter had agreed to star in Chen Linfeng's short film, she was worried and came to see her.

At least the situation at the scene looked good, which was consistent with her consistent perception of Xiao Chen.

There is still a plan for doing things.

As requested, Liu Qianqian went to the dressing room to put on makeup and change clothes, and Liu Xiaoli followed her in.

Shu Chang sat next to Chen Linfeng and exclaimed, "You must have spent a lot of money on this film. I recognized quite a few people, but it seems difficult to invite them all."

She saw several teachers behind the scenes, all of whom she had heard of before.

Look at the fashion designer, it’s Mr. Li Jianqun, and the others are probably also of similar backgrounds.

Chen Linfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly, shook his head and said nothing.

Indeed, it cost a lot of money.

I have no reputation as a director and am not even as good as a novice.

At least most of the novice directors have received complete professional education, or are veterans who have been working in various crews for a long time.

Even with this, don’t even think about recruiting such big names.

So he had no other choice but to use money.

After all, it was not until ten years later that capital invaded and changed the way things were done.

At present, the domestic film and television industry still operates in a handicraft workshop style.

It all depends on the director to bring the crew together. Only with a reliable director can there be a good work.

They are not necessarily good works. If you change them, they will fall apart before they are halfway done.

Those who work behind the scenes all look at the people they work for and rarely go to the crews of newbies. They will only go to the behind-the-scenes crews who are also newbies.

Unless you pay more, it has to be a short-term job.

As a newcomer, Chen Linfeng could barely take care of the crew. After all, it was just a short film and not many people were needed.

After waiting for a while, Liu Qianqian came out of the dressing room.

She was wearing a light red and white ancient costume, and because it was an underwater dance, she had a simple ancient bun on her head.

All the accessories on her body are gold and jade in color, so that they can reflect light underwater and create a shiny effect in the photos.

Different from his previous life, which focused more on the design of Dunhuang Flying Apsaras paintings, this time Li Jianqun focused more on constructing the image of the legendary Goddess of Luo River.

The overall style is based on the patterns of the Goddess of Luo River in ancient paintings, and is adapted to the aesthetic tastes of modern people.

She looks like the fairy Gushe, and combined with Liu Qianqian's appearance, it is really amazing.

At first, just take a photo of the whole picture and can't go into the water right away.

The dance teacher first taught the moves. In fact, the moves are very simple and it is impossible to do complicated ones in water.

After Liu Qianqian finished learning, the synchronized swimming coach taught her how to perform the movements in the water.

The two people practiced directly underwater for half a day.

It is now the beginning of September and the temperature has not dropped yet, but it is not comfortable to stay in the water for a long time.

Chen Linfeng had people prepare hot water in advance, and add water at any time to keep the water temperature at around 30 degrees. Shu Chang stayed for a while and then said goodbye and left, mainly because he had seen all the excitement and there was nothing left to see.

In the afternoon, we officially started trying to shoot.

There were weights hanging on Liu Qianqian's body to help her sink into the water, and there was also a fishing line wrapped around her body so that she could be pulled out in time.

The photographer was also filming in the water.

Since each breath has a limited duration, plus the time for sinking and floating, the actual shooting time is even less.

In addition, Liu Qianqian is not a professional underwater dancer after all, which led to slow progress in filming.

Fortunately, Chen Linfeng had anticipated this and left enough time for filming, so he was not in a hurry.

Liu Xiaoli felt distressed watching from the side. They had been going up and down for a whole day, but in the end, not much content was filmed.

She discussed with her daughter and decided to take it slow or let Xiao Chen find someone else.

At this time, Liu Qianqian showed her tenacity.

"Mom, I can't give up. Since I'm an actor, I have to endure hardships. It's just getting into the water. It's nothing, especially when it's warm water."

She couldn't let anyone look down on her, especially Chen Linfeng.

Liu Qianqian glanced at the director not far away, then turned her head back silently.

But it was really uncomfortable. My eyes were sore and my body felt like it was being torn apart by the fishing line.

She sniffed and told herself in her heart, "Liu Qianqian, you can do it. You can definitely do it."

The filming lasted a full week.

When Chen Linfeng announced the completion of the filming, Liu Qianqian burst into tears.

She whispered with a hint of tears in her voice, "Xiaofeng, if this short film doesn't look good, I will ignore you from now on."

Chen Linfeng knew how hard the only actor worked, so he patted her shoulder and said nothing.

For the next half month, he was busy with the post-production of the short film.

Including sound effects, music, editing, etc., as well as a small part of special effects.

By the time everything was completed, it was already past October.

Chen Linfeng took the finished film to the projection room to show it to Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang.

After the film ended, Chen Linfeng pressed the pause button and the room fell silent.

Shu Chang suddenly sighed, "I'm a little envious of Xixi."

She turned her head to look at Liu Qianqian, then looked at Luo Shen on the screen, as if she was doubting her life.

“How can you take such a beautiful picture!”

Liu Qianqian blushed a little after hearing what Shu Chang said, and stammered, "Not really, you would be beautiful if you danced this."

She really didn't expect that the final product would be so good.

When I was watching it just now, I felt dazed and felt that the person in the picture was not myself.

All the hard work during this period was compensated all at once, and doubled.

Chen Linfeng pressed the play button again and watched the subtitles gradually scroll out, with the names of the actors, directors and other staff members.

A wonderful feeling arises in my heart.

This is the first film I have shot in my life.

I think I am quite lucky. The process of forming the crew has been relatively smooth and there have been no unexpected problems.

Chen Linfeng recalled the entire preparation and shooting process and felt that he had to start from scratch.

The preparations for this time were helped by Brother Wang, the stage manager of The Lotus Lantern.

When he actually encountered problems, there were too many big guys in the crew, and most of the time, they helped solve the problems because he was a newbie.

However, it was good to experience the feeling of being guided by a big boss in advance. At least I know the key points of a lot of knowledge here, and I can strengthen them in a targeted manner in the future.
