Chapter 18 Group performances are also divided into high and low levels
"Hey... don't say it, you really don't say it. Brother Zhi seems... to be a lot more energetic today."
"Do you feel like you've grown taller? Was Brother Zhi so tall before?"
"The fitness effect is so obvious? Damn, if you have time tomorrow, why don't I try 500 push-ups and 500 sit-ups?"
"What the hell, you can't even get out of bed! If you had Brother Zhi's perseverance, you would have become a muscular tyrant by now!"
Beep!
Received amazing value, 18 points!
"Well?"
Hearing a notification sound next to his ear that a small batch of amazingly valuable items had been recorded, Li Youzhi, holding a toothbrush in his mouth, subconsciously looked in the mirror.
"vomit……"
It was already disgusting to brush his teeth when he woke up in the morning. When he saw the ordinary face in the mirror with an appearance attribute of only 44, Li Youzhi almost stopped crying again.
He quickly averted his eyes, and when he saw the body in the mirror wearing only Kuchazi, Li Youzhi raised his eyebrows.
It’s indeed a little different!
Originally, the original owner's figure was a bit rickety, with a rich body, a hunched back, and a chest. Such a posture made him look a bit wretched even if he lost twenty pounds.
But now, Li Youzhi's back straightened a lot, and his chest naturally stood up.
This kind of change is difficult to detect by people who don't get along day and night. But as the saying goes, if you walk upright, sit up straight, and your body is straight, your whole temperament will improve with just a scratch!
Beep!
[Attribute improvement completed! The temperament attribute has been increased to 38. Users are asked to keep up their efforts, complete the recommended tasks, and obtain stunning points to improve user attributes]
OJ8K!
Facing the scrutiny of several classmates, Li Youzhi quickly moved the toothbrush in and out of his mouth, spitting out a mouthful of foam.
He wiped his face with a towel and moved his muscles. When he expanded his chest, the bones in his back suddenly made a pleasant crisp sound.
"Maybe it's because I exercised too much yesterday and my whole body hurts. I can't bend my back today... Okay, okay, it's getting late, let's go quickly."
After making a few random remarks to divert the attention of several classmates, Li Youzhi picked up his clothes, put them on, and led everyone downstairs.
…
Rongdian Town Film and Television City is only seven or eight kilometers away from the Agricultural University campus.
For an internship like this, the crew will definitely help with commuting. Fortunately, Rongdian is also a relatively famous scenic spot, and there are many buses and tourist lines going there.
Li Youzhi and his party of six hurriedly and slowly arrived at the north gate of the film and television city before seven o'clock.
"Holy shit, there are so many people?"
Walking to the entrance of the North Gate, a classmate named Zhou Yuan from the Media Department next to Li Youzhi exclaimed.
After taking a quick look, Li Youzhi couldn't help but secretly clicked his tongue.
There are many people in Que family.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the sun in the east has not yet jumped above the clouds, and the dampness and coldness from last night in the air have not had time to dissipate, but no less than a thousand people have gathered at the gate of Rongdian Film and Television City.
These people are generally young, and some of them have good looks.
In the cold morning, some of these people were wrapped in coats and squatting on the roadside, some were smoking in groups and chatting, and some even just spread a sleeping bag in the grass on the roadside and huddled in it, without knowing it. Was he catching up on sleep, or was he just sleeping there last night?
But no matter what the image is, these people can be collectively called "group performers".
"Agricultural University! Are all the students from Agricultural University here? Assemble here!"
Just as Li Youzhi and Zhou Yuan were staring at the group of extras in a daze, the sound of a loudspeaker came.
Several people followed the source of the sound and saw a minibus parked on the side of the road, with a large sign erected next to the bus that read "Rongdian Film and Television, "Breaking Dawn" crew."
Seeing that it was the same crew that had gone to the school to recruit people, Li Youzhi and others hurried over.
"Hurry up, hurry up! What's going on? No one wakes up? Move faster!"
"One, two, three, four, five, six... why are there only twenty-six? Didn't there be more than forty people who signed up yesterday? Why are there so few people here?"
"I said, what's going on with the students in your school? How did you move forward during the counting just now? Alas... college students today."
After counting the number of people in the chaotic gathering, the actor's assistant director who was responsible for leading people to the crew was helpless.
There were supposed to be more than 40 people present, but in fact only more than 20 were present. They were about to go to the set, so it was neither a matter of waiting nor a wait.
Holding a loudspeaker, he looked at the Agricultural University students present and shouted: "Are there any cadres of the student union among you?"
"have!"
Facing his inquiry, a tall, thin and handsome boy in the crowd raised his hand high and quickly squeezed in front of the assistant director.
Smiling and bowing to the assistant director, the man said loudly: "Teacher, my name is Huang Ming! I am from the Arts Department of the Student Union. My major is acting."
Satisfied with the boy's respect, the assistant director subconsciously straightened his back and nodded: "Okay, not bad. Forget it's the first day today. I'll give you the announcement list of your school tomorrow, and you'll be responsible for bringing everyone in your school together." Gather together to avoid such chaos as today. Since you are studying acting, you should also teach these students how to act. From now on, you will be responsible for your group, and I will talk to you directly from now on."
"Okay teacher, no problem! Don't worry, leave this matter to me. I will definitely organize the people so that you won't have to worry about it!"
"Um."
Patting the boy's shoulder, the assistant director nodded again: "You're a good guy, Huang Ming, right? When we get to the set later, I'll arrange a prospect for you."
"Thank you, teacher! It's cold today. Please give me the announcement list. I'll wait here. You can get in the car and rest for a while. I'll call you when everyone is here!"
After being appreciated by the assistant director, Huang Ming quickly bowed and after taking the list, he called Li Youzhi and others to stand at the back of the minibus.
Glancing at Huang Ming, who was holding a crew acceptance sign in front of the minibus and loudly urging his classmates to assemble, Zhou Yuan clicked his tongue.
He took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one over.
"Brother Zhi, are you majoring in film and television literature? What do you mean by prospects?"
Noticing that several classmates around him were looking at him curiously, Li Youzhi took the cigarette, thought about it, and said, "To put it bluntly, it's an extra act with a camera during filming."
He replied simply, but in fact the prospect was not as simple as he said.
During the filming of film and television dramas, the protagonist spends most of the time in the middle focus range of the camera.
As we all know, there cannot be only the protagonist in a shot, it must also have a supporting role.
Therefore, group performances are needed.
However, extras and extras are actually different. Some need to act as a background board for activities in the distance, while others need to be close up to explain the time and place where the story takes place, and create an atmosphere for the development of the story.
For example; on the bustling roads of old Shanghai, the heroine, an underground worker, walks from a distance to meet with her contact person.
In this shot, there must be people selling newspapers and cigarettes in the foreground, people begging for food, rickshaws wearing felt hats soliciting customers, police officers patrolling the streets, customers coming out of barbershops, and people buying food in traditional Chinese medicine stores. The disease number of the medicine...
These fleeting characters together create a typical atmosphere of the foreign market in the 1920s and 1930s.
That's the foreground actor's job.
Compared with ordinary group actors, the foreground actors' heads and faces are much clearer in the shot, and their appearance and costumes are also more detailed.
Although there are so many extras in front of Rongdian Film and Television City, most of these people actually have no future prospects.
"What's going on with you guys? The assistant director has been waiting for you for a long time before you come! Why can't you get up early when you know it's a long way to go? Are you taking the crew seriously?"
Just when Li Youzhi was thinking this, several late classmates hurried over. Looking at the sweating classmates, Huang Ming put down the crew sign and scolded loudly.
"Fuck, you really take yourself seriously. You're so stupid using chicken feathers as arrows, now you're treating yourself like an official!"
Watching Huang Ming yelling with sideways eyes, Zhou Yuan spit on the ground.
Li Youzhi couldn't help but laugh.
This guy looks like the "disdainful brother" who glanced at the boy with five stripes in class.
Beep!
