After Zhou Shaoming was woken up by Avril, he found a pair of eyes staring at him, and Zhou Shaoming felt a chill all over his body. Tom's eyes looked like he wanted to kill someone.
Zhou Shaoming couldn't help coughing, "Seeing how seriously you were taking the photo just now, I fell asleep for a while without knowing it."
"How was the shooting?" Zhou Shaoming asked Tom.
Tom narrowed his eyes and asked Zhou Shaoming: "Zhou, how could you do this? I was filming so hard, but you fell asleep beside me."
Zhou Shaoming frowned and responded: "I just closed my eyes and you discovered it. There is no need to complain like this." Zhou Shaoming responded to Tom helplessly.
Avril suddenly felt that it was a mistake to come to the shooting at this time. Looking at Tom's expression, she quickly said: "I have been so tired all week, can't I just take a little rest?"
Zhou Shaoming signaled Avril to stop talking. In fact, after having been in contact with Tom for a while, Zhou Shaoming knew Tom¡¯s character. If he talked to Tom like this, it would still be okay, but if it were someone else.
Tom took a deep breath and said to himself: "Don't think that being a star is great." After hearing what Avril Lavigne said, Tom returned to the shooting position.
Avril was dumbfounded. The look on her face when she looked at Tom was far different from when she came to him.
Zhou Shaoming came to Tom, patted Tom on the shoulder and said, "Forget it, Avril doesn't know anything, don't blame her. By the way, how was the filming?"
Tom said in a bad tone: "The shooting is almost over."
Three thousand paintings gradually unfolded in front of Tom. Under the camera, Tom took pictures of all these oil paintings until the afternoon. After shooting, Tom was dazzled.
While Tom was resting, Zhou Shaoming began to look at the footage taken by Tom seriously. These shots need to be processed by the production team, but the oil painting shots inside are indispensable. Zhou Shaoming hopes to make everyone satisfied with both shooting and production.
"Tom, thank you for your hard work. Go back and rest early. Now it's time to leave it to the production team to process these shots." After Zhou Shaoming read it carefully, he was very satisfied. After getting along with each other, Zhou Shaoming believed in Tom's shooting skills. It was for this reason that he felt relieved to take a break.
Zhou Shaoming has never enjoyed such treatment during this period of filming. This is because with Tom as an important helper, Zhou Shaoming must be present when processing these shots. Zhou Shaoming must be present to check the final presentation of the shots to meet Zhou Shaoming's requirements.
Although Zhou Shaoming was very relaxed during this period of filming, often after the filming crew left, Zhou Shaoming would stay and work overtime to fight with the production team.
This is also the reason why Zhou Shaoming was tired during this period. However, as two months passed, Zhou Shaoming gradually adapted to this intensity. Zhou Shaoming, who was highly focused, learned a lot about cartoon production in his daily work. .
When Tom left, he took a deep breath and said to Zhou Shaoming: "Work is work, but you still have to pay attention to your body." Tom knew that during this period, after the filming was completed, Zhou Shaoming had to run to the production team to work together. Making movie scenes, so during filming, Tom tried his best to communicate clearly with Zhou Shaoming. During filming, he basically completed the task very accurately according to Zhou Shaoming's wishes. Even if Zhou Shaoming was not around, Tom could complete the task.
Zhou Shaoming nodded with a smile and said, "I understand, you should also go to bed early."
As Tom and others left, Zhou Shaoming took the shot and walked towards the production team. Avril just arrived at noon, supervised Zhou Shaoming and left after lunch. Especially after the unpleasant incident happened with Tom, Avril didn't want to stay on the set any longer.
Raymond looked at Zhou Shaoming coming with a frown on his face. It seemed that Zhou Shaoming had a task to give to him again. For this director, although his work attitude was somewhat serious, there were always endless things to be handed over to him. I still can't stand it.
Zhou Shaoming looked at Raymond's expression and asked, "You don't look very happy?"
Raymond said with a wry smile: "I'm worried whether you have another task for me."
Zhou Shaoming shook his head and said: "How can it be so fast? I just shot the oil painting you brought here today. I will give you the task after the lens is produced."
Lei Meng suddenly felt relaxed after listening to Zhou Shaoming's words. It seemed that Zhou Shaoming came here just to find members of the production team.
Zhou ShaomingI quickly came to the production team Phyllis and started to create these shots with Phyllis and several members of the production team.
Zhou Shaoming frowned at the computer and said: "I hope that after this group of shots has been processed by computer special effects, there will be no distortion, and it will be as shocking as possible, making people feel excited when watching it."
Phyllis hesitated for a moment and said, "Then how should we deal with it?" After computer processing of a shot, Phyllis felt that it was very good, but it seemed that Director Zhou in front of him was not satisfied.
Zhou Shaoming stood up and said: "Can you make the scene as eye-catching as possible when it comes out, for example?" Zhou Shaoming walked to the computer and said to the camera above: "Here, should we change the color to try not to dominate the scene? The camera flashes The speed is faster, there is not so much time at the beginning of the film for the audience to read the contents of these oil paintings one by one."
Phyllis said with some surprise: "Zhou, we spent more than two months and invited more than 20 oil painting masters to complete these things. Just show up for a while?"
Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and said: "A dreamy beginning comes at a price, but if you can achieve a head-first start to the film, it's worth it."
After hearing Zhou Shaoming¡¯s response, Phyllis said, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll flash the oil painting faster.¡±
Zhou Shaoming watched from the side, "Hurry up." Although there was only a small shot, Zhou Shaoming still looked very delicate during the production. After all, this is the formation of a pattern. As long as this pattern can be determined, Zhou Shaoming can Then you can use it boldly later.
As Phyllis was working on the computer again, the camera began to flash past quickly again. The one-minute shot at the beginning quickly turned into less than three seconds. Zhou Shaoming nodded and said: "This kind of time is barely enough." It¡¯s okay, let¡¯s connect this group of shots together.¡±
Phyllis took a deep breath and looked at it. She had been busy all afternoon, "You need to give me three days to deal with it."
Zhou Shaoming said: "No problem, I will complete this set of shots with you in these three days."
Phyllis frowned and asked Zhou Shaoming, "Isn't it rare that you don't believe me?"
Zhou Shaoming shook his head and said: "No, because I spent too much manpower and time in making this dreamy beginning. I hope to participate in the production process, and I hope you agree."
Phyllis looked at the persistent Zhou Shaoming, nodded and said, "Of course."
For three days, Zhou Shaoming continued to communicate with Felice. During the production, Zhou Shaoming continued to study with Felice, whether it was the color of the lens, the speed of flashing, or the order in which the oil paintings were presented. They were constantly discussing , try it.
It was previously planned to be completed in three days, but it took five days to complete. When a continuous shot of less than two minutes appeared in front of everyone.
At this time, Phyllis breathed a sigh of relief. Oh my god, it took five days to complete a shot of less than two minutes. It was really terrible.
Zhou Shaoming looked at this set of shots, and the oil paintings that were captured were processed by computer special effects, and he looked at them repeatedly. Zhou Shaoming was very satisfied. After spending so much time on this set of shots, he finally seemed to see the results.
This kind of achievement makes Zhou Shaoming feel that doing so many things is worthwhile. Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but pat Felice on the shoulder and said: "Everyone has worked hard these days. As long as the staff who have participated in this project have a salary increase of fifty percent, what do you think?"
After hearing what Zhou Shaoming said, Phyllis smiled and said, "Okay, let me thank you, Director Zhou, for everyone."
Zhou Shaoming said: "I will be at the Liberty City villa in the evening. I will invite everyone to a dinner to reward everyone for their hard work for so many days. Please pass your department."
Phyllis nodded quickly and said, "Okay."
During the filming of the movie Kung Fu Panda, because several parts were started at the same time, it was somewhat different from previous filming. As the director, Zhou Shaoming had to contact the relevant supervisors of several departments at the same time to keep the film in shape quickly.
After two months of joint efforts, we have finally achieved something. This is good news for both Zhou Shaoming and the movie.
Without everyone¡¯s joint efforts, there would not have been such an obvious breakthrough. However, after all, everyone is working hard and taking a proper rest.
So Zhou Shaoming thought of a plan on the spot to let everyone get together and relax appropriately. Of course, since the filming of the film has not yet finished, it is easy to be secretly photographed if you go out for a party. However, since the filming of the Iron Man movie, Liberty City has becomeIt is the best place for Zhou Shaoming and Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company to hold private parties.
When all members of the Kung Fu Panda production team heard such a thing, they were very surprised. They were not surprised that Zhou Shaoming invited everyone to dinner, but that they were able to go to the villa where Iron Man was filmed and see this magnificent building with their own eyes. What an honor it is.
Appropriate rewards have really improved the enthusiasm of employees. During the production of Kung Fu Panda, everyone was very tired when encountering any difficulties. As long as it was not under Zhou Shaoming's personal supervision, they always felt that the production was perfect.
However, when Zhou Shaoming saw it, he was able to find many flaws and then made constant corrections. Gradually, this way of working improved.
On the shooting scene, Phyllis rarely took the initiative to seek out Zhou Shaoming, "Zhou, there is a scene where I need your advice on a stunt."
Zhou Shaoming was stunned for a moment and said to Tom: "Tom, I leave the rest to you."
Tom nodded and said, "No problem."
Zhou Shaoming and Phyllis came to the place where the production team worked together. Phyllis stopped in front of the computer in front of the production members and said to Zhou Shaoming: "This is the special effect we created for the movie PO, but no matter how you look at it, it is Unable to achieve what you want.¡±
Zhou Shaoming said to the staff: "Let me see."
As Zhou Shaoming finished speaking, this scene soon appeared in front of Zhou Shaoming. Kung Fu Panda is about a panda Po who does not have any martial arts. He has always had a dream, that is, to become a hero, and where he lives In Peace Valley, there is a group of experts who have been protecting this place.
Then, today is the martial arts conference held in Peace Valley. The purpose is to choose a dragon warrior to fight against the evil Snow Leopard King. This character is enough to destroy Peace Valley.
When the martial arts conference was held, Abao missed the time to go up the mountain in order to take care of his family's business. When Abao arrived at the mountain, the martial arts conference had already begun.
Abao, who was outside the door, was still unwilling to give in. He tried his best to enter the venue of the martial arts conference, and started a funny and wonderful performance.
This scene shows that in order to successfully enter the martial arts conference, Po thought of using firecrackers to loft himself into the venue. The lens was produced, but it was not ideal after all.
After Zhou Shaoming read it, he took a deep breath and said, "Indeed, it is less daring. Can you add some funny elements?"
Phyllis laughed and cried, and said: "That's why I'm looking for you. Because how to increase it?"
Zhou Shaoming said to Phyllis: "Po has an unyielding spirit, which can be reflected in the scenes such as entering the venue, so when using fireworks at the end, we can let Po do it." During fireworks, in addition to rich expressions, you can also add some more stunts.¡±
Phyllis said: "But the fireworks' special effects are all displayed,"
Zhou Shaoming smiled and said, "Too few. I remember you told me that for the scene where Master Guanggui leaves, you have to ask me for three months for your team members to complete it. This scene is obviously It's because there aren't enough stunts that the film has a superficial appearance but no inner content, and it looks nondescript."
Phyllis shook her head and said, "Does a shot like this take that long?"
Zhou Shaoming reminded: "From the trajectory of the take-off and the scenes of fireworks explosions, I can be more flexible in terms of time, as long as it is done well."
Phyllis nodded, "I understand, I will try my best to complete it."
Indeed, for Phyllis, who manages many production teams, the burden is not small. The production team does not just produce a certain scene shot in the movie, but is divided into countless small teams to produce scene shots at the same time. Phyllis not only has to supervise and help team members complete the tasks at hand, but also completes them on time. task.
With such intensity of work, Zhou Shaoming was never able to find a suitable candidate when choosing the director of this production team in the early stage, which also resulted in the production team not having a real director.
It wasn¡¯t until Felice appeared in front of Zhou Shaoming that Zhou Shaoming decided that Felice would become the director of the production team.
The addition of this supervisor also brought order to the production team, which was no longer as chaotic as it was at the beginning. The film production process has also been greatly accelerated.
For three months, Kristina's return also brought many surprises to Zhou Shaoming. After three months, Kristina found a group of top Hollywood stars from Hollywood to dub Kung Fu Panda. .
The dubbing work is also one of the highlights of Kung Fu Panda. Since Zhou Shaoming is determined to make this movie a big one, of course he has to take the exam.Take every aspect into consideration.
On the day Kristina came back, Zhou Shaoming also arrived at the airport early. Zhou Shaoming, who was waiting at the airport, saw Kristina walking out of the airport.
He shouted to Christina: "Christina"
People at Los Angeles Airport were dumbfounded, Christina? Who is this man?
Director Smith Zhou? No, how is this possible? Why did Director Smith Zhou come to the airport?
Reporters who reacted quickly gathered around. They originally wanted to welcome Christina and see if they could get some entertainment news from her, but they never expected to see Director Smith Zhou at the airport.
This young Hollywood director has been very low-key during this period. Smith Zhou, who rarely appears in public, has not heard any news.
"Director Smith Zhou, why did you come to the airport?"
"Director Smith Zhou, I wonder what you have been doing recently? Why have you not appeared in the public eye? I heard that you are filming a cartoon. I wonder how the filming process is going? When can you meet the audience?"
Kristina was dumbfounded. When Zhou Shaoming's voice reached her ears, even Kristina found it unbelievable. How could Zhou Shaoming appear in this place? Didn't he know that this was an airport? Are there so many people at the airport? There would have been many reporters coming today.
Isn¡¯t Zhou Shaoming causing trouble for himself? Kristina thought, but when she saw Zhou Shaoming surrounded by reporters, she felt moved in her heart. Although Zhou Shaoming seemed to be doing something stupid in front of her, she felt very happy.
Although Zhou Shaoming is a successful director in the eyes of others, to himself, he is just the man around him, his own man, and his own husband. It is a matter of course for a husband to pick up his wife. He does not have the status of a director to shirk this responsibility casually.
Christina's eyes lit up, she quickly held Zhou Shaoming's arm and said to the reporters surrounding Zhou Shaoming: "Zhou just came to pick me up at the airport today. After running all the way, I feel very tired."
Kristina responded with a smile on her face: "Right now, Zhou is busy with the filming and production of the new movie Kung Fu Panda, and the movie is going very smoothly. It may take a longer time. If the release time can be confirmed, we will inform everyone. "(To be continued.)
