In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.
He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...
"This is exactly the effect I wanted."
"It's about mice. Let's use less of this zoom-in camera movement and focus more on the key points."
"This is a TV series, and its main purpose is to drive the plot forward."
The mice and their companions beamed with joy as they patiently listened to Lin Yifeng's advice.
It must be said that the camera crew led by the mouse is quite skilled.
The three cameras switched in turn, successfully showcasing this scene from multiple perspectives.
The process even surpasses the original, at least giving it the feel of a real TV series.
After dealing with the rats, they prepared to start filming the second scene.
As Lin Yifeng passed by, he saw Zhao Xicai and the actor who played Xiaobao squatting down next to Buddha with serious expressions.
Out of curiosity, Lin Yifeng also went over.
The Buddha was speaking earnestly to the two of them.
"If you want to fake it, you have to understand the feel of it."
"Paper is relatively light, so we can only work by feel."
"For example, the script uses wax, which is good, but I personally prefer to use some crumbs and oil. That greasy feeling is harder to distinguish."
Zhao Xicai nodded frantically to the actor who played Xiaobao.
Seeing how seriously the two boys were studying, Lin Yifeng's heart skipped a beat.
Torture!
That's too much torture!
Who openly teaches others how to forge documents?!
Lin Yifeng quickly reminded the Buddha.
"Master, just give me a little guidance, don't teach me this kind of thing."
The Buddha realized this as well and quickly waved his hand, urging the two of them to hurry up.
"Alright, learning this stuff is useless."
"You should just stick to acting."
"You can't eat this bowl of rice."
The two blinked their eyes. As college students who had not yet entered society, they were full of curiosity about everything, not to mention that there was a legendary figure like Buddha in the crew.
Urged by Lin Yifeng, the two of them gave up on continuing to "study" with Buddha.
Soon, the conman filmed the second act.
By evening, after the cameras had captured all the main characters except Zhao Ning making their appearance, the group finally finished their first day of work.
We had planned to have a nice dinner together to celebrate, but the group from the Mouse group decided to go back to the hotel first to work on today's material, and everyone just gave a perfunctory reply.
However, it was this first day's experience that completely ignited the enthusiasm of everyone in the crew.
Starting from the second day, in addition to the regular filming, Lin Yifeng directed the filming during the day and worked overtime at night to write the script for the first season.
Finally, on the fifth day, filming for the entire first episode was completed.
Since the main actors were somewhat accustomed to their roles, they were able to switch between them normally in their performances.
Lin Yifeng thought that was enough, so he decided to continue being a hands-off manager.
After supervising the first week and seeing that one and a half episodes had been filmed, Lam Yat-fung told everyone to just continue filming as usual, while he went back to school to study for a couple of days.
During the few days back at school, Lin Yifeng clearly sensed a change in Old Man An's attitude.
I stopped keeping an eye on him and started giving him the green light in every way.
During lunch, Bai Yejin also inquired about the filming of Lin Yifeng's TV series.
How's it going?
Lin Yifeng was stunned for a moment.
"It feels alright."
"At this rate, once the people over there get used to it..."
"Could filming be completed before November?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yejin was also startled.
"So fast?"
Lin Yifeng nodded.
Web series don't need to be too detailed; as long as the content can be filmed, they can continue.
In addition, Lam Yat-fung provided a complete script, which was not very complicated, so the filming difficulty was not very high.
Lin Yifeng estimated that once the group got used to it, they could probably release an episode in as little as three days.
If filming is completed by mid-October, it can be submitted for review before November.
We'll ask Wei Yuxian to pull some strings, and we can start looking for a place to screen the film as early as December.
Is being a director fun?
Bai Yejin bit her chopsticks, a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
Lin Yifeng thought for a moment and then decided to take her to see it when he had free time on Saturday and Sunday.
After resting at the school for a couple of days, Lin Yifeng went to the film crew again.
As Lin Yifeng had predicted, the five main actors gradually came to understand their characters as the series progressed, which saved them a lot of effort during filming.
Lin Yifeng had only been back for two days when the filming of the first two episodes was already completed here.
In the evening, in the hotel room, the mouse played the edited first episode.
Just as Lin Yifeng had predicted, there were basically no problems.
Both the opening scene and the acting of each cast member were excellent.
"Brother Feng, what do you think?"
The mouse glanced furtively at Lin Yifeng, its eyes filled with worry.
He was a little worried that the final product wouldn't satisfy Chet Lam.
Lin Yifeng stroked his chin and nodded.
"not bad."
"There are basically no problems."
"We'll find someone to compose a theme song and do some proper voice-over work, and there shouldn't be any major problems."
Hearing this, the members of the photography crew inside the room all breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Yifeng was a little surprised when he saw the first episode of "The Swindler".
He hadn't expected the filming process to be so easy.
At least for now, this group of people doesn't seem to have any major problems. As long as they keep filming, they'll definitely be able to complete the first season.
