Chapter 1033: The Only Problem Is That It's Too Well Acted
Wednesday, May 9th.
Stepping on the land of Jingzhou again, Lin Jiaqiang was in a good mood.
Maybe it's because I had a very pleasant relationship with Tengda last time.
The last time I came to Jingzhou was in September 2010, when Lin Jiaqiang and three other buddies came to Jingzhou to shoot the promotional film of "Bloody War Song Power Enhancement Version".
The price given by Tengda at that time was also very generous, 500,000 yuan per person, for those of them who have been out of gas for a long time and even have a problem with eating, this kind of opportunity is simply unwanted.
Moreover, the whole filming process at that time was also easy and enjoyable.
Lin Jiaqiang just wore a special COS armor, held a plastic machete, posed a few poses for the camera, and completed the shooting without even saying a few lines, and the real shooting time was less than half an hour.
Other than that, I spent the rest of my time eating and drinking in Jingzhou and playing with my old friends.
Everything was perfect, except that this promotional video affected the image a little after it aired, and it was used as a joke all year round.
But this is actually not a big problem, for these supporting characters who have been so angry that they are about to be forgotten, as long as there is money to be made, what is the point of being ridiculed?
When I made a movie and played a clown, was there less ridicule?
What's more, this advertisement is popular, and it can also increase their exposure in front of netizens, no matter how you think about it, it will be earned.
Therefore, after more than a year and receiving an invitation from Tengda again, Lin Jiaqiang agreed on the spot.
After agreeing, he asked what the specific promotional video was, and then the other party replied that it was a promotional video for fitness equipment.
Lin Jiaqiang was a little confused at that time.
With my stature, looking for me to shoot an advertisement for gym equipment?
Something is wrong, right?
Is there something wrong?
However, he thought about it again, and the advertisement for the game "Blood Battle Song Power Enhancement Edition" seemed to be quite unserious, but the publicity effect was also good.
It can only be said that Tengda does seem to prefer this kind of moth advertising.
Lin Jiaqiang doesn't think much about it, anyway, there are advertisements to shoot, and the oil and water are enough, as for the effect of the advertisement, that is a problem that others need to consider, what does it have to do with themselves?
So he didn't think much about it, he lay down completely and let it be arranged.
Lin Jiaqiang didn't have a schedule or anything like that now, so he settled down a little and booked a ticket to fly directly to Jingzhou.
It's still the same as the last time I came to Jingzhou, with special car transfers, five-star hotels to arrange food and accommodation, in short, all aspects are arranged clearly, and Lin Jiaqiang rarely experienced this kind of treatment even when he was the most popular.
After arriving at the hotel, the reception staff arranged for Lin Jiaqiang to stay and rest first, saying that he would notify him immediately after arranging the work related to filming.
……
At the same time, Meng Chang is perfecting the details of the promotional video copy in the advertising and marketing department.
Yu Yao walked quickly to his side and said, "Brother Meng, Lin Jiaqiang has arrived, I have arranged for him to stay in the hotel, and he can start filming at any time in the next two days." ”
Meng Chang was a little surprised: "So fast? ”
"Oh, that's right, he doesn't have a schedule to talk about now, and he doesn't need to make an appointment in advance."
Of course, Meng Chang, as the head of the department, will not do everything himself, not to mention that he did not plan to do his job well. So he handed over most of the details to Yu Yao, including contacting Lin Jiaqiang, preparing the filming venue, etc., without asking.
He originally thought that Lin Jiaqiang would have to come to Jingzhou in two more days, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, so that he slowly changed the copywriting of the promotional video before he finished it.
Yu Yao asked, "That'...... Why don't you let him stay in the hotel first and arrange for someone to take him to play in Jingzhou for two days? We can prepare slowly. ”
Meng Chang shook his head: "There's no need, let's start filming directly in the afternoon!" ”
Although the details of the promotional film are not perfect enough, after all, for Meng Chang, this film is just a casual film, and there is no need to worry too much about those details.
"Where's the location?" Meng Chang asked.
Yu Yao replied truthfully: "I originally wanted to shoot in the sloth apartment, but I thought about it carefully, the environment of the sloth apartment looks too good, and it doesn't seem to meet your requirements, Brother Meng." ”
"So we found an ordinary rental house to restore the most realistic living environment for young people, especially otaku and otaku as much as possible."
"Here's the picture."
Yu Yao handed over the mobile phone, Meng Chang reached out and took it, glanced at the photo of the rental house above, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, yes, it fits my requirements perfectly!"
The whole shooting was done in the room, and there were no exterior scenes, so it was relatively easy to set up.
If it is a normal promotional video shooting, it must be filmed in a neat and bright "DREAM HOUSE", and it must be accompanied by a sweet-looking young lady, so as to leave a good impression on the audience.
But Meng Chang didn't intend to leave a good impression on the audience, not to mention that the protagonists chose Lin Jiaqiang's "standard fat house" of more than 200 catties, and the room must be messy to match his image.
Of course, you can't go too far, otherwise if you do it too obviously, your undercover identity will be exposed, and it won't end well.
"In that case, let's shoot this afternoon!"
"The venue is there, and the actors are in place, so I'll hurry up and change the copywriting, and we'll make a quick decision."
Meng Chang began to quickly make the final revision of the copy, then printed it out and rushed to the shooting site.
Yu Yao also hurried to go about his own business.
The efficiency of the action is very high, which is very much in line with the consistent style of the Tengda Group.
……
In the afternoon, the promotional video was filmed.
Meng Chang, Yu Yao, Lin Jiaqiang and the staff who filmed the promotional video were all here.
After exchanging polite words to each other, Meng Chang distributed the script of the promotional film to the staff on the scene, and then briefly told Lin Jiaqiang about the play.
"Actually, you don't need to figure out this script, you just need to act it according to your first feeling, understand?" Meng Chang hinted frantically.
Obviously, Meng Chang didn't want Lin Jiaqiang's acting skills to suddenly explode, and he dedicated a piece of acting that was hotly discussed on the whole network, and inexplicably brought the smart fitness drying rack to fire.
The worse Lin Jiaqiang's acting skills are, the more hopeful Meng Chang is to get a high commission.
Lin Jiaqiang read the script carefully from beginning to end, and nodded: "Don't worry, I'm familiar with this kind of role!" ”
He has acted in a lot of nonsensical comedies before, and there are often some absurd and bizarre plots in them, and I can't help but be very happy when I see the script of the promotional film, isn't this my strong point? Acting in true colors!
Meng Chang nodded: "Okay, then let's start filming, let's take a version first to see the situation." ”
Everyone quickly took their positions and began filming.
Although Lin Jiaqiang has not made a movie for a long time, he is an old actor after all, and his skills are still there, not to mention that he does not need to memorize lines in the promotional film, he only needs to make various exaggerated expressions and actions, so there is basically no difficulty.
The finished film edited out of this promotional video is estimated to be more than two minutes, and several shots are not complicated, so it was shot quickly.
When all kinds of sets and props on the scene had been prepared, and Lin Jiaqiang entered the state very quickly, he finished shooting all the shots in less than half an hour.
"Okay, Ka!"
Yu Yao looked at Meng Chang: "Mr. Meng, can you give me a little instructions?" ”
Lin Jiaqiang's performance is okay, but if you insist on picking problems, you can still pick them. As a director, even if there is no problem in this case, it is often "guaranteed", just like Party A has to find fault with the first version of the plan even if it is satisfied with the first version of the plan, and force a second version.
Meng Chang fell silent.
It's not that there are too many opinions or dissatisfaction with Lin Jiaqiang's performance, it's the opposite.
This Lin Jiaqiang is also too good!
Whether a comedic short story like this can make a laugh depends on how well the actor acts.
Just like many domestic comedians, filming is like forcibly scratching the audience's squeaky nest, and many jokes will not make people feel funny, but will make people feel very embarrassed.
But Lin Jiaqiang is a veteran comedian after all, although he is out of breath now, his skills are still there, and his exaggerated movements and expressions are matched with narration, which is really quite tasteful.
Before Meng Chang could speak, Lin Jiaqiang had already volunteered to say: "Everyone can put forward any opinions, I haven't filmed for a long time, and my state has not recovered." ”
"But my condition is getting better and better, and if I shoot again, I will definitely be able to perform better!"
