Chapter 735

"I've never been an action director before!" Xiao Yao scratched his head with a smile.

"It doesn't matter. It's not for you alone." Steve mcgrove said, "our crew has experienced action directors, and you work together. I think your movements are very beautiful. You can really see the shadow of Chinese Kung Fu, but it's different from the Chinese Kung Fu in Peter Wang's movies I've seen before. It seems that there are some routines missing, but it feels more real. How can I say that it's true? It's not so fancy, but it's also pretty, especially cool! "

" well, I'll try. " Xiao Yao nodded and agreed.

Although Xiao Yao has been a director himself, there is basically no action play in the short film "tuner", and the actions in the two MVs "faded" and "singme to sleep" are relatively simple. He has never tried the real sense of action guidance. At this time, he can also learn and feel the work of action guidance.

"Well," Steve mcgrove nodded cheerfully, "our choreographer is Jon West, not yet. I'll introduce you to him when he comes. I believe he won't have any objection after watching the video you just played. Now I'm going to revise the script and shooting plan and design the characters for you, so I won't be with you. You can think of some ideas before he comes

"All right!" Xiao Yao continued to nod.

"I still have a job, so I won't stay with you any more." Producer glass stim said, "if you want to visit our studio, you can ask Kim to take you. She knows us very well."

"Thank you." Xiao Yao nodded his thanks.

"August 1, it seems that the producer is going to fire you and Kim." Looking at the figure of grass stim leaving, Ye Jiaying pulls Xiao Yao to one side and whispers in Chinese.

Although the actor's achievements are much higher than Xiao Yao's, and she is also Xiao Yao's mother, Ye Jiaying knows that they can come to the troupe today because of Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao is worthy of the leading role, so Ye Jiaying hasn't spoken much today. Even when the crew asked Xiao Yao to play a guest role, she didn't say anything about the Chinese movie queen, so that everyone's attention has been focused on her son. But Ye Jiaying is also a producer now. She is very clear about some of the publicity methods and tactics of the producer. Seeing grass stim's manner and performance, she had already guessed what he was going to do. At this time, she could not help but remind Xiao Yaodao.

"I know. Just stir it." Xiao Yao, who also had a hunch, nodded and said in a low voice, "they are the American crew, and I can't control them. I've promised to be a guest character, soundtrack and action director. Can't I just turn around and leave? Jin and Gong Chen are different. "

At the beginning, when AMG speculated about Xiao Yao's affair with Gong Chen, Xiao Yao and Gong Chen only cooperated on a few songs, belonging to a relatively simple relationship between the producer and the singer, and their feelings were very ordinary. Zhou Jingyi and Xiao Yao have known each other for several years, from colleagues to friends. Later, they worked hard for the "American hip hop competition" in the team of "torrent". Of course, their feelings can't be compared with Gong Chen at that time.

Although Xiao Yao was a little upset, he couldn't just dig people up like he did with AMG, and then hold a news conference to quell the scandal. At the same time, he grilled AMG on the media. Xiao Yao is not afraid of this crew, can do whatever he likes, or even leave. But he is Zhou Jingyi, if things are too unpleasant, the crew will inevitably put the account on Zhou Jingyi's head. Zhou Jingyi is an American. Her career is based in the United States, and she has to work in the film and television circles in the United States.

"Of course, Jin and Gong Chen are different," said Ye Jiaying with a smile. "That day in the hotel, I felt that her eyes were very different from those of Sammy. After only one year in the United States, I got two American girls. If I stay two more years, can you really get me an American daughter-in-law back? "

"Ma, what are you talking about?" Xiao Yao looked at Ye Jiaying and said, "Duo Er, you've grown up! Don't you think you should say that I don't recognize any other daughter-in-law except dor, and no other girl can enter Xiao's house? "

"Ha ha," said Ye Jiaying, amused by Xiao Yao's serious manner, "friendship is friendship, and emotion is emotion. It's hard for outsiders to say such things! If you are my son, I will stand on your side unconditionally. You can find a girlfriend that you like. "

"By the way, speaking of duo'er," Ye Jiaying continued, "do you want to say hello to duo'er in advance? So she doesn't have any ideas? I think that day in the hotel, she seemed a little unhappy After all, Ye Jiaying prefers sun Tingting, who is now Xiao Yao's girlfriend.

"No," said Xiao Yao, shaking his head. "Dor is very smart. Her family is in the performing arts circle. You can see what's going on. As for what you could see in the hotel that day, could dor not? But Calabasas and Los Angeles are all you're coming to, and she can't say anything. She's in a bit of a normal mood. "

"Ah? Are we doing something wrong? " Ye Jiaying was a little surprised and said, "dor, if you don't want us to come, just say it.""No," Xiao Yao shook his head. "Dor knows Kim and Sammy. They seem to be friends and their relationship is very complicated. Don't look at duo'er's gentle, but she has a strong personality. If you don't let us come, it will show that she is afraid of them, and she won't show weakness. "

"Three girls or friends who like you?" Ye Jiaying was surprised and said, "what did you do in the middle? Don't you take it off? "

"What can I do?" Xiao Yao said with a bitter smile, "Jin and Sammy both took the initiative to get to know dor, but I didn't introduce them. This kind of thing, I am also very helpless! Kim and Sammy met before I established a relationship with dor. I can't find out that people like me, so I'll break up with them, right? Can fan fan, Gong Chen or Cheng Xi say that if they like me, our studio will have to open them? The only thing I can do is to have a good relationship with dor and wait for them to give up. "

"Well, no more. Leave emotional things to yourself Ye Jiaying waved her hand, turned to Zhou Jingyi and said, "Jin, please show us around."

Just now, Xiao Yao and Ye Jiaying had been talking in a low voice in the corner, obviously talking about something more private. Other people were very knowledgeable and didn't go to the side. At this time, after listening to Ye Jiaying's greeting, Zhou Jingyi immediately went over and said with a smile, "OK, I'll take you to the command room of our play first."

Zhou Jingyi takes Xiao Yao and others around the set, during which Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao are curious to ask a lot of questions. Zhou Jingyi answers what she knows in detail, and takes them to ask the relevant staff if she doesn't know much. The crew seems to have received instructions from the producers, they are very warm and friendly to Xiao Yao and others, and they answer their questions more carefully.

Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao are not just here to watch the show. Ye Jiaying is a producer and Xiao Yao is a director. They are all very interested in the advanced equipment, special shooting techniques and special props and setting methods of American drama groups. They also want to "steal teachers" when they come here. After such a turn, those interesting questions have been answered, which can be regarded as achieving their original purpose of coming to the troupe.

After Xiao Yao and others have visited the set, director Steve mcgrove has revised the script and designed the characters for Xiao Yao. The action director of the crew, Jon West, has also arrived. After watching the video of Xiao Yao's fight with Vince ward, Jon West didn't have any opinions on the director's proposal to add Xiao Yao to the action guidance of this episode, so the three men worked together to design the fighting action of this episode.

Xiao Yao's agile and sharp action style is not the same as that of the general Chinese kung fu movies in the world, nor is it the more vigorous and open action style of American action movies and dramas. This drama is already on the air. It's impossible for a drama to suddenly change its action style in the middle of the show. Besides, Xiao Yao's only one episode will not change the overall action style because of him.

The director designed the role of an instructor for Xiao Yao, presenting his action style as a feature. The scene is only in the training room. Besides Xiao Yao, only Vince ward and Zhou Jingyi are involved in the opposite play. Therefore, Xiao Yao is only involved in the design of two plays and three people's actions, and the workload is not particularly heavy.

Vince ward is a strong white man with strong physique, strong muscles and good strength, but his agility and flexibility are poor. It's difficult to do some movements of Xiao Yao's style. On the contrary, Zhou Jingyi, who has dance skills and is also of Chinese origin, has successfully completed the movements of Xiao Yao's style, so the director and movement director naturally go to work Xiao Yao and Zhou Jingyi play as the focus of teaching.

I don't know whether it was inspired by the producer or my own idea. Director Steve mcgrove also specially explained that Jon West, the action director, added several locking moves with close physical contact in the play. In addition, Xiao Yao's Bajiquan was also close to the body. Therefore, after the whole play was designed, Xiao Yao and Zhou Jingyi had a close contact Physical contact is frequent and intimate, and Vince ward, who is surrounded by people, laughs a lot. Fortunately, Xiao Yao, who is dedicated to the design of movements and rehearsals, didn't notice it. Otherwise, he would have to give him a few tough rehearsals.

Today's shooting is planned before. Only Xiao Yao's play is new. Therefore, when the action design is completed, the shooting can be officially started. In order to strike while the iron is hot, the director also decided to shoot Xiao Yao's part first.

Xiao Yao has no objection to this. After a little rest, he wiped his sweat and changed his clothes. After shooting his part earlier, he can also stay next to Steve mcgrove and continue to steal.

Vince ward and Zhou Jingyi have been shooting for half a season, and they have a tacit understanding with the crew, so whether the two plays can be shot smoothly depends on Xiao Yao's performance.

At the age of eight, Xiao Yao acted in drama, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, in TV series, and at the age of eighteen, he made short films. Xiao Yao still has a lot of experience in acting. In addition, although he has asked for many leave in the past two years, he has never relaxed his study of the course of applying for the Department of drama performance, and his examination results have always been in the forefront. There is no lack of theory and practice, the acting skills are naturally excellent, and the language communication is barrier free. Therefore, the shooting of the two plays is more smooth than the director expected.Director Steve mcgrove even gave Xiao Yao a special compliment. He said that if Xiao Yao was not going to return to China soon, they would like the producer to sign a contract with Xiao Yao and let him become the resident actor of the show.

After his part was finished, Xiao Yao didn't leave and offered to be the director's assistant, but the director didn't refuse. Xiao Yao went through the whole day shooting with the crew, and also felt the shooting style of an American drama director.

After the shooting task of this day, Xiao Yao's task is not finished. Next, he agreed to work on the soundtrack.

The director, Steve mcgrove, took Xiao Yao to the post production soundtrack workshop to participate in the soundtrack of the previous episode.

After entering the workshop, the sounders of the crew, Dawson Gru and Xiao Yao, introduced each other and explained the purpose of bringing Xiao Yao. Director Steve mcgrove asked Dawson Gru to show Xiao Yao the edited material.

The later soundtrack of this episode is already in production, so the material played by Dawson Gru is not only the video material, but also the completed soundtrack.

"Any ideas?" After watching the material, director Steve mcgrove looks at Xiao Yao and asks.

"Yes." Xiao Yao nodded and pulled the material to a place by himself. "I think I can try this scene tracking play."

"This one?" Steve mcgrove and Dawson Gru were both surprised and said, "this is not a good song to match." Dawson Gru has obviously been informed by the producers, but this plot is a tense and suspense scene with a little bit of horror flavor. Neither of them thinks this one is suitable for the song.

"It's not a song, it's a piece of pure music." Xiao Yaodao.

In the eyes of producer glass stim, Xiao Yao is a singer songwriter, but not a professional sounder and musician. He asked Xiao Yao to participate in the soundtrack of post production. In fact, he didn't want Xiao Yao to do the pure music soundtrack of the drama, but wanted him to write a suitable episode for this episode. However, after reading the material of this episode, Xiao Yao has no idea about writing the episode. Instead, he wants to make a piece of pure music.

"Are you sure?" They both looked at Xiao Yao and said, "what do you want to do?"

This section is the highlight of this episode. The reason why they haven't had time to do the score is that they don't want to be hasty. Therefore, when they heard that Xiao Yao wanted to do the score of this section, they were a little nervous.

"It's mainly to highlight tension, suspense and even a little bit of horror," Xiao Yao said. "I already have an idea. I can do it when I go back in the evening, and you can hear it tomorrow."

"May I ask what instrument you are going to use first? Water phone Hearing Xiao Yao accurately describe the characteristics of this paragraph, they put a little snack, but Dawson Gru still couldn't help asking.

"It's not a horror movie. There's no need to use a water organ." Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "I'm going to add the string music of the violin to the handplate."

"Hand dish? What's that? " Dawson Gru was stunned.

"It's a musical instrument I invented myself!" Xiao Yao took out his mobile phone, called up a picture of a handplate and handed it to Dawson Gru. If you are interested, you can go to the studio of "daydream" tonight to watch me play this instrument and make this score

The timbre of this kind of musical instrument is more ethereal, but it is not ethereal sound, it can not show tension, suspense atmosphere. Xiao Yao remembers that there was a tense and exciting plot in the fifth season of prison break, which was composed of hand disc and string music. It's also suitable to get that piece of music here.

When he was in Nashville, AK Robinson wanted to hold a small concert for Xiao Yao to promote the handdisc. Although the concert was not successful, Xiao Yao's promotion of the hand disc in the United States was also concerned. Xiao Yao thinks that taking out the hand disc to make the score makes people know that this kind of instrument can not only be used for playing, but also for making the score. This can increase an interested professional group, and is also a good advertisement.
