Chapter 454: Filming the Lotus Lantern + "Back to the College Entrance Examination"
After a discussion, the two decided to shoot.
Su Zi called Su Yuehe and Ni Ruoan and told them about the new drama, and they both agreed.
Although they complain every day that Su Zi is not often in the company, they are more afraid of her when she often stays in the company.
Let her go out and try her luck. She doesn’t have to worry about anything. Su Yuehe has arranged the casting directly.
The actor who plays Chenxiang is a boy who just turned sixteen. His clean temperament, handsome appearance, and acting skills helped him successfully get the role.
Xiaoyu is a vixen, but she is not the charming and seductive one people imagine.
She is ignorant, simple, cute, and has a sense of purity and innocence.
Among the female artists who came to audition, many of them, upon hearing that they were going to play vixen, tried to act in a charming and mature manner. On the first day of casting, Su Zi was very dissatisfied when he saw their performance.
The script had clearly been sent to them. This part was the scene where Xiaoyu and Chenxiang went to the human world for the first time. Xiaoyu's performance was written very clearly, but these people did not study the script carefully and just acted based on their preconceived impressions.
At the age of a teenager, she had to act charming.
Su Zi felt very uncomfortable seeing this.
She didn't even bother to say a word of criticism. When she saw their looks, she didn't even let them audition and just waved her hand and told them to leave.
So many people went in and came out in less than a minute, which put a lot of psychological pressure on the people behind.
On the first day, everyone was wiped out.
The next day, someone finally read the script carefully. Based on appearance and acting skills, Su Zi chose the most suitable person.
Su Zi liked the way her eyes looked at people the most. They were watery and seemed to be able to speak. Anyone would speak in a low voice if stared at by such a pair of eyes.
She is a new star that Sanxi Media Company has been promoting recently. She comes from a wealthy family and she only does movies because it’s fun.
After learning this information, Su Zi felt that she was more suitable.
The next character to be confirmed was Dingxiang, a character that was hated by the audience in the drama.
When Su Zi was young, she didn’t understand why the director and screenwriter at the time arranged such a character. Apart from being disgusting, what role did she play in the play?
Now she understood.
To put it in a more mercenary way, it prolongs the conflict of the series and uses this branch line to fill in the main plot.
The second is to cater to the audience. Elements such as love triangles and darkening were the conflicts that the audience liked to watch the most at that time.
To put it in a more high-end way, the character of Dingxiang is the catalyst of the emotional triangle relationship, the driving force behind the male protagonist's understanding of love and responsibility, and a mirror of the complexity of human nature.
Su Zi thought about changing Dingxiang's plot so that she would not be hated by the audience, such as giving her independent value, transcending the love line, and doing things just to oppose the feudal system.
But doing so may seem like taking away the main attraction.
In the end, she gave up on adapting the role and just filmed the whole thing according to the original version.
Sometimes, being a hated villain is a way to become famous.
In order not to waste this casting arrangement, Su Zi decided on all the roles in the play in succession. As soon as the casting was completed, she notified everyone to join the group for practice.
There are quite a lot of fighting scenes in this drama. Su Zi has always been reluctant to waste too much time on the post-production of action scenes. She cannot do the kind of post-production that involves zooming in on the scene closely, or editing and integrating the fighting scenes one by one.
If you can film, then film. If you can’t, then get out. There is no reason for her crew to accommodate any artist.
While everyone was training in the crew, Su Zi was not idle either. She held several meetings with the styling team before deciding on the final look for each person, restoring the advantages of each person's appearance to the greatest extent possible.
On the day of taking the final photos, as soon as Gong Fan, who played the role of Erlang Shen, appeared on the stage, all the girls' eyes lit up and they looked at him again and again.
Su Zi was also very satisfied. When Gong Fan put on the silver armor suit, he really looked like Erlang Zhenjun.
The other people's appearances also have their own characteristics.
Everyone likes tight.
Everything is ready, Su Zi starts shooting the first shot. The scene to be filmed today is Chenxiang breaking into the Nantianmen, which is a group fight scene.
The extras who played the roles of heavenly soldiers and generals all had some basic knowledge of action scenes, and Su Zi asked the martial arts instructor to give them guidance so that their movements could be unified.
Therefore, Su Zi was quite satisfied with the overall fighting scene. From the monitor, no one was slacking off, the picture did not look messy, and the main and secondary parts were clearly distinguished.
It passed after only three takes, which was beyond Su Zi's expectations.
During the filming, everything was calm and nothing happened. The process was smooth and the actors did not act up and were very cooperative.
If Su Zi hadn't often turned around and saw the original owner beside him, he would have almost forgotten about it.
After the filming of this drama was completed, the two still did not change back.
While waiting for the knife on the neck to fall, the drama "Back to the College Entrance Examination" was broadcast after the college entrance examination.
Students who have just finished the college entrance examination feel terrified when they see the title of this drama. Who would make such a crazy drama? Anyone who wants to go back before the college entrance examination can do so, but they don’t want to.
It's too hard. I have to get up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs. I also have no way to eat properly. Every day when I enter the classroom, the first thing I see is the countdown hanging at the back, which makes me even more nervous.
Not to mention the students, even the parents who accompanied their children to take the exams during this period don’t want to go back to that time.
But the screenwriter and director of this drama is Su Zi.
Given the value of this configuration, even if it is shit, they will still try it to see how salty it is.
I thought it was a TV drama that clearly depicts the pain before the college entrance examination, or a drama that reflects the relationship between students and parents, as well as the hardships before the college entrance examination. Everyone planned to support it first, but if it was too realistic, they would not watch it.
After all, no one wants to read things related to their profession every day, and the same goes for college entrance examination candidates!
But after watching the first few episodes, people no longer think so.
It turns out that we can't use common sense to infer Su Zi's dramas. This drama is somewhat related to the college entrance examination, but it is more of a suspense and adventure part.
The three female and one male protagonists, in the world of the college entrance examination, grow from weak to strong, and fight to the point of flying. Various weird scenes, rule-making, high-energy decryption reasoning, and the tragic story behind the rules are all addictive.
After watching the first world, the audience cried out on the Internet.
[It’s so beautiful! It’s so beautiful! It’s so beautiful! ]
[Before watching: College Entrance Examination? Even dogs won’t watch it. After watching: “College Entrance Examination Infinite Stream? I’ll watch it!”]
[Su Su is a devil, I saw a rumor that the inspiration for this script came from her accompanying her family to take the college entrance examination.
At that time, everyone was worried about whether their children could pass the exam and whether they could do well in the exam, but she was actually thinking about the script! Is this the difference between people? 】
