At the performance selection site, Zhang Qi's group really attracted the attention of the audience with their creative makeup.
Finally, we successfully won a place in this year's national art performance.
In fact, the standards of several candidate programs are comparable, and those who put effort into makeup and styling will naturally stand out.
Meng Zhen and He Zhigao lived up to everyone's expectations and captured every member's grace on stage.
Until all the film I brought was used up.
Moreover, under Meng Zhen's guidance, He Zhigao's understanding of portrait photography gradually improved.
Before, he only took photos to record the scenes truthfully, but now he suddenly realized that photography is actually an art.
Different composition techniques combined with different ways of presenting light and shadow will produce effects with a strong personal touch of the photographer.
Backstage of the performance area.
Liang Yun, the art director of the art troupe, excitedly stopped Zhang Qi, who had just finished the performance, and asked, "Did you do your own makeup today? This flag design is so creative!"
Seeing Zhang Qi's makeup up close, Liang Yun became even more excited.
The actor's facial features were refined with clear lines.
The color of the eye makeup echoes the performance costume, and it is particularly eye-catching when the stage lights are on.
"Teacher Liang, this makeup and styling was designed by my cousin's friend, Meng Zhen! Not only is she creative in styling, but she can also make really beautiful clothes, especially skirts. Her photography skills are also quite impressive!"
Zhang Qi praised Meng Zhen highly, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
If Comrade Meng can win over Teacher Liang Yun, the art troupe won't have to pay for their own makeup in the future.
As the artistic director, Liang Yun is the one who makes the final decisions on the stage effects and actor appearances.
I have to say that Zhang Qi's praise was very effective.
Liang Yun's eyes flickered with a strong interest in Meng Zhen: "Where is she? Can you introduce her to me?"
People who engage in art have great respect for talent.
Such an excellent and versatile person might be at the senior level.
So Liang Yun used the word "recommendation".
"She is also here today. Please wait a moment. I will go find her."
Zhang Qi immediately walked off the stage.
As a result, he ran into Meng Zhen who was heading backstage on the way.
Zhang Qi quickly pulled her over:
"Comrade Meng, our troupe's artistic director, Ms. Liang, is very interested in you and would like to meet you. She's the one who decides on the stage effects and actor costumes for all our major performances. Do you understand?"
Meng Zhen nodded.
Gave Zhang Qi a knowing look.
Of course she understood the implication, that Teacher Liang was the God of Wealth!
The money earned from makeup is small, and she is eyeing the fat piece of meat from performance costumes.
That's her specialty.
The art troupe has at least two major performances every year, and other small-scale consolation performances almost every month.
There is a huge demand for performance costumes.
The two walked backstage.
Liang Yun was indeed still waiting there.
Zhang Qi stepped forward and introduced, "Teacher Liang, this is the comrade Meng Zhen I was talking about."
"Hello, Teacher Liang."
Meng Zhen put on a sweet and obedient smile and let the other party look at him openly.
She was also wearing female soldier's uniform, had a bun on her head, and carried a shoulder canvas bag of her own design.
Liang Yun looked at the young and beautiful girl in front of him and was slightly surprised.
He is not the senior I imagined at all.
But she quickly adjusted herself to the situation and thought to herself, the other person was born with a talent for aesthetics.
Look at her appearance and figure, she looks more like a Huadan than the other Huadan in the troupe.
With admiration in her eyes, she immediately stepped forward, shook Meng Zhen's hand, and introduced herself.
Then he praised the makeup for tonight's show.
Finally, he asked:
"Comrade Meng, I heard from Zhang Qi that you can also make clothes?"
"Well, I do custom clothing," Meng Zhen took out a design manuscript from his canvas bag, "Here are the clothes I designed for several customers recently. Take a look."
Liang Yun took the notebook and looked through it carefully.
Almost all of them are skirts.
I designed it for the geological team some time ago, and made it for Zhou Xinyue in the hospital during my spare time.
There is also inspiration that comes from practicing writing.
As one by one, designs of different styles and unique features appear before your eyes.
The admiration in Liang Yun's eyes grew stronger.
I was also deeply shocked.
When I first heard Zhang Qi say that the other party could make clothes, I thought he was just an ordinary tailor.
After all, many families now have sewing machines, and there are many people who can make clothes.
Until she saw these brilliant design drafts.
She had participated in art exchanges abroad and knew that only professional fashion designers could produce manuscripts.
I immediately realized that Comrade Meng's professional level is quite high.
Meng Zhen looked at Liang Yun's expression and knew that the other party had initially recognized his abilities.
She added, "Teacher Liang, I'm also good at designing stage costumes. When I have nothing to do, I always like to study the fashion magazines over in the harbor.
The performance costumes of our art troupe have always been military uniforms. Although the music and choreography are innovative, it will be difficult to bring a new experience to the audience if the visual presentation effect does not change.
Look at Sister Qi and her friends’ show today. They just made some innovations in makeup and it received rave reviews.
The dance also incorporates ballet elements, and if it is paired with suitable costumes, the visual effect will definitely be more shocking."
These words hit the nail on the head for Liang Yun:
"If I ask you to design the costumes for this performance, what are your thoughts?"
Meng Zhen immediately took out a pencil and sketchbook from his bag.
This is going to test her on the spot.
She quickly sketched on the paper while explaining slowly:
