Zhang Jiakang did not hesitate and rebelled on the spot to seize power.
Gu Mo wanted to resist, but was immediately suppressed!
Director Zhang immediately made arrangements: "Jia Qian, just follow my instructions now. Pay attention to your expression. I don't sense sadness in your eyes, only technique."
Then he called on the lighting technician and the photographer: "Pay attention to the lighting, so that He Jiaqian's face is in shadow, and the photographer will take a side profile shot next.
It would be best to capture the moment when Jiaqian's tears fall."
…
Next, the filming location became Zhang Jiakang's home turf.
"Jia Qian, it's your turn to perform. You'd better show the situation where tears are rolling in your eyes but never fall. If your conditions allow, I hope you can complete the shot of half of your face crying and half of your face smiling.
This way, I can't help but feel a mixture of sadness and joy."
He Jiaqian: “…”
She can pull off the 'speechless' shot with ease!
Her ex-husband really thinks highly of her!
However, with her abilities, she can still complete the above requirements.
When He Jiaqian was immersed in the role, Zhang Jiakang began to give instructions again: "Photographer, give the heroine a close-up of her face, and then give me a panoramic shot in a while, so I can see the effect."
After a while, he asked the lighting technician to arrange the use of light and shadow. Using a backlit lens, he created a depressing and heavy atmosphere for the heroine.
This made her, curled up on the sofa, look even more lonely and sad.
Later, Zhang Jiakang had the brightness and saturation of the picture lowered, highlighting a darker tone overall.
“Okay, zoom out.
Then shoot the moving or immovable objects outside the window to highlight the dynamism.”
This arrangement makes He Jiaqian's figure gradually "shrink," making her appear insignificant and weak. In sharp contrast, the other people or objects outside the window are in stark contrast.
Zhang Jiakang also took the time to teach Gu Mo.
“In post-editing, you’d better include some flashbacks.
When the heroine Jiaqian is sad, some shots that reflect the good times of the past are interspersed.
At the same time, you can also use montage techniques to combine with other shots to highlight the contrast between before and after!
Let the heroine's happiness and misfortune be revealed one by one.
It’s a pity that the MV isn’t long enough, otherwise I would have a lot more ideas and shots to shoot.”
Suddenly, an idea struck him: "Gu Mo, how about you polish the script and expand this MV into a love movie?"
"Forget it, I don't have any money!" Gu Mo was not interested.
Once the project is really launched, this love movie will most likely become Boss Zhang's "experimental product".
"That's right, you're obviously broke. Only a simple, old artist like me would be the male lead and director of a music video for free, working for you for free!"
Next, Zhang Jiakang boldly tried various shooting techniques!
He didn't treat himself as an outsider, nor did he treat the female lead He Jiaqian as a "human being". He just made all kinds of difficult performance requests!
…
Gu Mo crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking speechless.
Li Xiaoli quietly walked up to him and said, "You're done. You even agreed to play the young protagonist in his new movie."
"It doesn't matter. No one can take advantage of me. I'll just give him the title of MV director, and then the song will sell more money.
As for my guest appearance in his new film, it's easy to resolve, just ask him to replace me. But I never want to give up, so I must join the crew and work hard on the film.
If he is deliberately torturing me, then I will insult his eyes with my poor acting skills."
"Ha ha."
While Gu Mo acted as an outsider and chatted with Li Xiaoli.
The male lead and director Zhang Jiakang began to train the only female actress and ex-wife He Jiaqian, and even personally demonstrated.
Then, like a sex-hungry ghost who hadn't seen a woman for eight hundred years, he taught He Jiaqian step by step how to use body movements to express the heroine's loneliness and sadness.
It's really disgusting!
Fortunately, this young and famous and romantic gangster settled down after getting married and only did this to He Jiaqian!
Otherwise, negative information about him would have been flying all over the place.
…
Unexpectedly, Gu Mo finally got his chance to be a director.
Because when filming the sweet scenes between the male and female protagonists, Zhang Jiakang was unable to split himself.
After Gu Mo accepted the role, Zhang Jiakang had no objections. At most, he felt that a certain plot was not perfect and wanted to save another one. It seemed that he regarded this filming as a love journey to relive old memories.
Two professional actors, working together very well.
Most of the shots were completed very quickly.
After filming at another location for a while, we finished the shoot.
Some of the staff involved in the filming began to take photos with Zhang Jiakang and his partner.
As for the MV's 'wrapping party', there wasn't one.
But Li Xiaoli arranged red envelopes for everyone according to Gu Mo's wishes.
"Director Liu, let's work together again if there's a chance." Gu Mo exchanged polite words with Director Liu.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu, for giving me this great opportunity. It's a pleasure working with you." Director Liu was very happy to receive the money. It was a lot of money with little work, and it also helped his brothers who made a living together to make some money.
…
After the MV shooting was completed, Zhang Jiakang and He Jiaqian had no plans to stay in Shanghai and wanted to catch a flight back to Beijing.
So Gu Mo got on a business car and saw him off for thousands of miles.
On the way, Zhang Jiakang asked, "Gu Mo, why do I feel like this song and the MV were created from a female perspective?
