Entertaining Children

On the second day after the signing of Tu Yiyuan was settled, Xiao Yao said goodbye to his family and flew to Shanghai with his two assistants. ?August 1?Chinese?Chinese W≈W≥W≥. ≠81ZW. COM

Shenxi is an art school, and its start time is a few days later than ordinary colleges like Yenching University, so when Xiao Yao arrived in Shencheng, it was not yet the day when the school started to report. Xiao Yao didn't have any program team to arrange a hotel for him. The park where Yin Xi's studio is located is not too far from Shenxi, and it is more convenient to live in the school, so after arriving in Shencheng, he still lived in his own hotel. In Shen Xi's student dormitory.

Among college students, some non-local students choose not to go home during the winter and summer vacations, and stay in the city where the school is located to work during the holidays. Therefore, the dormitories of the university are not closed during the holidays. As long as you apply to the dormitory management department of the school before the holidays, you can live in the dormitories all the time during the holidays. There are still people living in the dormitory, and the school's dormitory teachers naturally don't have holidays. They still have to be on duty in the dormitory, but there are fewer people during the holidays, and the rules in the dormitory don't need to be as strict as when they were in school. They can relax a little bit. .

Because there is a dormitory teacher on duty in the dormitory, those who arrive at school early like Xiao Yao only need to register with the dormitory teacher, and then they can tear off the seal on the dormitory door and move in. up.

The check-in procedure in the student dormitory is relatively simple, and I have lived in the place for a semester, so I am familiar with it. Xiao Yao, who arrived in Shencheng in the morning, was all settled in half a day. Therefore, on the afternoon of arriving in Shanghai, Xiao Yao went to the creative park where Yin Xi's studio was located.

There are enterprises in the creative park, unlike schools that have winter and summer vacations. It is already the end of February, and more than ten days have passed since the Spring Festival. These enterprises have already started to work normally. Since Yin Xi asked Xiao Yao to be present at the model fitting tomorrow, Xiao Yao, who arrived in Shanghai one day earlier, was not in a hurry to go to Yin Xi's studio, but went to Tong Luo's special effects company first.

More than a month has passed, Tong Luo has already re-planned the work arrangement of the special effects company, and has already started the production of animated films. When Xiao Yao came here this time, he first wanted to care about the production progress of the animated film.

According to Xiao Yao and Tong Luo's plan, they did not make this animation film in the order of the script, but selected a few scenes that could better reflect their special effects level and made them first as their promotional samples. In the later stage, it is very likely that we will need to prepare for the pull investment activities. What they are currently doing now is the production of that sample clip.

Before coming to Shanghai, Xiao Yao had already received the year-end dividends from the model company and the sales revenue from his songs last year, and transferred most of them to the account of the special effects company. With Xiao Yao's investment and the funds in the special effects company's own account, it is enough to support the special effects company's expenses for this film project for about four to five months. Not only is there no pressure to produce boilerplate footage, but there is also surplus to start the overall production of the film.

There is no financial pressure for the time being.

Xiao Yao's shot script and character design are very detailed, so the production of this sample clip went smoothly. After watching it, Xiao Yao is also very satisfied with the work efficiency of the special effects company and the current production level of the completed part.

In addition to caring about the progress of the animated film, Xiao Yao came to the special effects company for the post-processing of the more than 30 still film photos in his hand.

To put it bluntly, a static movie is to use pictures to tell a story. Xiao Yao needs to use more than 30 photos to present Li Qingzhao's life story. Carefully designed to allow the models to present every moment full of plot tension through expressions, demeanor, and movements, the post-processing of the photos also needs to be carefully polished.

Different from the prominence of the subject in the portrait photos, in the pictures of the still movies, what Xiao Yao really wants to express is the plot expressed in the whole picture. He needs to make these photos as exquisite and shocking as oil paintings and attractive. The difficulty of such post-production is naturally higher than that of ordinary character portraits, so Xiao Yao took these things to a special effects company to do them. Because whether it is software or hardware, the technical support that the special effects company can provide is much better than that of a self-taught guy like him.

I have already helped Xiao Yao do the post-production special effects of the mV for free. Regarding the private business Xiao Yao once again brought, Tong Luo did not say generously this time that he can help him complete it for free, but since he is a movie project For the sake of collaborators, Tong Luo still gave Xiao Yao a friendly discount price of a student plus a partner. Since Xiao Yao also has a basic understanding of the technical personnel in the company, Tong Luo also agrees that Xiao Yao can freely designate any one or several employees in the company to do his private business. As for Xiao Yao's request that he wants to learn further special effects production techniques from the employees of the special effects company, Tong Luo also said that it doesn't matter, as long as the employees themselves agree, he, the boss, has no objections.

Therefore, Xiao Yao appointed two picture special effects artists who he thought were the best to help him complete the special effects production of static movie pictures, and also proposed to them to use two pictures from the brand fashion conference held by Yin Xi's studio a week later. The entrance ticket is paid, and they are asked to teach him this student during the production process.

The two special effects artists knew Xiao Yao, a young star, and knew that it was impossible for him to become a professional picture special effects artist to steal their jobs. He is a star "apprentice", not to mention that Xiao Yao also provided them with an opportunity to go to the brand press conference as a live audience and watch beautiful models to their heart's content? The two naturally agreed with joy.

Xiao Yao just arrived in Shanghai today, and he was still in the dormitory in the morning to pack his luggage for half a day, tidy up the dormitory hygiene, and had no intention of starting study and work right away, and this static movie was not in a hurry, so Xiao Yao and the two picture special effects The teacher made an appointment for making and learning, and planned to start officially in two days.

After the work in the special effects company was completed, it was not too late. Thinking that since he came to the Creative Park, it seems unreasonable not to visit Yin Xi’s studio. If Yin Xi finds out, she will inevitably find fault with her again, so after leaving Tong Luo’s special effects company, Xiao Yao went directly to Yin Xi's studio.

The office area of ​​Yinxi Studio occupies a lot of land and space. It is composed of a three-story main building and a two-story auxiliary building. The entire studio is also divided into several large parts according to the type of business.

Among them, the music department is the two-story annex building, which includes a recording studio, an instrument storage room, a practice room, a rehearsal room, and many other rooms. Yin Xi directly threw this part to Xiao Yao, and usually he would not go there. The three-story main building is also divided into two parts: the film and television department and the brand design department. These two parts serve Yin Xi himself, and also represent two different development directions after Yin Xi's transformation. Xiao Yao knew that the recent work of Yin Xi's studio was focused on the brand press conference a week later, so Xiao Yao didn't go anywhere else, but went directly to the three-story main building and went to the brand design department.

"San'er! Nina! Why are you here?" Xiao Yao pushed open the door of the fashion design studio familiarly, and the first thing he saw when he entered was Lin Qisan and Nina Aiyiguli.

"Bayi, have you returned to Shencheng?" Hearing Xiao Yao's voice, Lin Qisan ran over happily and hugged Xiao Yao.

"Hey, Yanjing is my home. Only when I go back to Yanjing can I use a word back. I have come to Shanghai." Xiao Yao corrected with a smile, "Why are you here? And Nina, you are also in advance Back to school?"

"Nina returned to Shencheng on the eighth day of the lunar new year." Lin Qisan said, "It doesn't look like you. If sister Yin Xi didn't urge you, I'm afraid you won't come back until school starts? You don't care about your own brand press conference at all? "

"I have business in Yanjing. I'm taking promotional photos for a program group of Yanjing Satellite TV. The serious thing is that I'm working. I just finished filming yesterday. Didn't I fly over today?" Xiao Yao said, "Besides Oh, isn't sister Youxi watching here? She is more professional than me in this area, so I feel very relieved."

"Cut~ You're just lazy, you'll be happy if you're exhausted, my sister." Yin Xi also came over and said, "I heard that you are not only in Yanjing recently to help Yanjing Satellite TV's program group shoot publicity Photo, you also used other people's resources to shoot some kind of static movie, and forced a shooting project that could be completed in two days for six days. How is it? Playing with the heroine of the "Ancient Talented Woman" these days Have fun?"

"Here, how do you know so clearly?" Xiao Yao was slightly surprised, and immediately reacted, "Is there a model in our company who arrived early? Tell me, who sold their boss so quickly?" Because the two projects were selected together and notified together, the only people who knew that he was shooting still films, apart from Yanjing Satellite TV's program team and Tu Yiyuan, were people from Xingdonglin Modeling Company.

"He came to Shencheng in advance to explain that he is dedicated to his work and attaches great importance to our press conference," Yin Xi pouted, "Such a person is kind enough to provide me with information. Do you think I will tell you who she is?"

"What static movie? Are you playing new tricks on Bayi?" Lin Qisan interjected curiously, "It sounds like it has something to do with photography and acting. Nina and I are graphic models, and we also learn acting. You If you don’t bring us a fun photography project, it’s not interesting!"

"I'm shooting a fun project, and the model is not paid." Xiao Yao said with a smile, "You are in Shanghai for the Yanjing project. You have to fly from Shanghai so far out of your own pocket, and you have to pay for it when it is over." I'm embarrassed to fly back by myself. As for Nina, I didn't even know she came to Shanghai ahead of schedule."

"By the way, why did Nina come here so early? Also, why are you here?" Xiao Yao began to change the subject.

"Nina was bored at home after the Spring Festival, so she came early." Lin Qisan said, "Since taking photos for magazines with me and Sister Xi last year, Nina has also started to work as a graphic model. Speaking of job opportunities in this area, there must be more Baoshi in Shanghai than in her hometown, and I will take care of them, so I came here early to find some work and earn some pocket money."

"Both of us are part-time models, and we are also very interested in fashion. I know that Yin Xi and your joint brand press conference will be held next week. These days, I often come to Yin Xi to see, on the one hand, to appreciate and learn, By the way, let's see if there is anything I can do to help Yin Xi." Nina also explained with a smile.

"Look, your brothers and classmates are more caring than you." Yin Xi pointed at Xiao Yao again.

"Sister, didn't I come here?" Xiao Yao hurriedly said, "You told me to be there tomorrow. I just finished taking photos yesterday afternoon. The plane arrived in Shencheng this morning, and I came here in the afternoon. I don't care about that." ah?"

"So, are you here to help?" Yin Xi looked at Xiao Yao and smiled.

"I have something to tell you." Xiao Yao nodded vigorously.

"Okay, during the press conference, you will be the person in charge of the scene, the commander-in-chief!" Yin Xi said.

"What?!" Xiao Yao pointed to his nose and said, "You asked me to be in charge of the entire press conference?"

"Yes!" Yin Xi nodded with a smile, "During this time, we have completed another design work, which I like very much. I decided to be the display model for this work by myself. It's just for you."

"But even if you want to go to the show by yourself, you can also invite a professional conference planning company to plan and let their people direct." Xiao Yao said.

"The conference was originally planned by a professional planning company," Yin Xi said, "but no matter how professional the planning company is, how meticulous the preparations are, there will inevitably be unexpected situations on the spot, so we still need someone who can make a decisive decision." The person in charge of the scene. The people in the planning company act according to the requirements, and if there is an emergency, they also need someone to tell them how to deal with it, which is also the requirement of the planning company.”

"This is our common brand, and the boss is just me and you." Yin Xi looked at Xiao Yao and said, "I want to prepare for the show, who will I hand over to if I don't hand it over to you? Besides, you are not learning to be a director. Is it? I have filmed short films and MVs, and directed the entire crew, so why not direct a press conference?"

"This...Okay, I'll do it!" Xiao Yao thought for a while, then nodded and agreed. I have participated in quite a few fashion conferences, and I have seen some unexpected situations, so I am not completely inexperienced. Just like what Yin Xi said, the short film and mV have been filmed, can't you handle a press conference by yourself?
