AFTER MY EX BOYFRIENDS WHITE MOONLIGHT PROPOSED TO ME - Chapter 33
Chapter Thirty Three
Years later, Zhuang Yan devoted himself to the preparatory work of the film.
Hearing that he found Xie Ning, the master art artist, Zhao Yang was also very relieved.
The art department is the most important department second only to the director group in the movie, and its importance is extraordinary.
In addition to conceptual design and scene design for the film, in a broad sense, the art department is also responsible for the entire film “serving the way”, that is, clothing, makeup, and props.
It is naturally impossible to leave it to Xie Ning to co-ordinate. Zhuang Yan’s crew has an art director, called Wang Jianjian, known as Brother Jian, the name is quite cute, but his personality is stubborn, and he stays on his chin catching the trend. A stubble beard.
Many domestic production crews, especially small production crews, have no difference between the art director and the main art, but they are clearly separated abroad. Zhuang Yan stayed abroad for a long time, and the division of art groups also had certain regulations.
Art directors generally do not specifically participate in the design, but only control in the general direction. They mainly supervise and manage, coordinate the work of various groups of personnel, and design the overall visual style, so that the style and color adjustment of the movie are unified.
The main art is involved in the design of main concepts and scenes, and sometimes also participates in the design of important props and protagonists.
Of course, there are deputy art and art assistants under the main art. Most of the drawings are drawn by these people, and their usual work is drawing.
Some large-scale productions may require hundreds of draftsmen, including but not limited to various buildings, costumes, and props. Designs of all sizes must be drawn and handed over to the props team for production.
For a crew like Zhuang Yan, Xie Ning’s deputy art and art assistants alone, the number of people in total would have to be about ten.
Most of them were recruited by Zhao Yang in China, which is why he would recommend Zheng Jing in the first place.
Zheng Jing has his own studio, and if he is one, it is equivalent to contracting more than half of the art team.
When Zhuang Yan brought Xie Ning to the company, Zhao Yang and Wang Jian were startled.
At first, Zhao Yang thought he was an amateur that Zhuang Yan had discovered. His image and temperament were good, but he looked a little cold and didn’t know how the camera felt.
Zhuang Yan glanced at him horizontally: “This is the main art I mentioned to you before, Xie Ning.”
Zhao Yang: “…”
This year, even if the director Zhuang Yan is handsome, can he even become a master artist with a good face?
Zhuang Yan introduced Zhao Yang and Wang Jian to Xie Ning.
“This is the producer Zhao Yang. You should discuss with him the budget of the art team; this is the art director Wang Jianjian. You can follow others to call him Brother Jian.”
Brother Jian’s name is homonymous, and it sounds quite unique.
Xie Ning: “Brother Zhao, Brother Jian.”
Wang Jian gradually touched the stubble on his chin and teased: “So you are Director Zhuang’s latest new love?”
Zhuang Yan frowned: “What are you talking about?”
Turning his head and explaining to Xie Ning: “Don’t listen to his nonsense, I don’t even have old love.”
Xie Ning smiled and nodded.
Wang gradually went to take Xie Ning’s shoulders carelessly: “Since it is the main beauty, it is my person.”
“Go aside.” Solemn was not polite this time, and slapped his hand directly, and snorted, “This is my person, don’t move it.”
Wang Jian was surprised.
Zhuang Yan mentioned Xie Ning’s situation a bit, and said: “I will directly communicate with Xie Ning on the concept and the design of the main scene, and tell him my ideas. He is not familiar with prop making and setting implementation. Give him more snacks and arrange for him an associate art who knows a lot about this.”
“Okay, I see.” Wang Jian gradually smiled sullenly, “Such a baby, don’t you even let thrush?”
Zhuang Yan lifted his chin and gave Wang Jianjian a warning look: “I don’t care how you wander outside, but you are not allowed to pick him up.”
Wang Jian became helpless: “My fault, I will converge on the crew.”
Xie Ning blinked and couldn’t help but laugh.
Before coming, Zhuang Yan emphasized Wang Jianjian to him, saying that he was more erratic, but he was never married and had no girlfriends. It is also your wish to sult others, and there is no problem with character.
With Xu Qing’s lessons learned, Zhuang Yan specifically urged him to have less contact with Wang gradually in private except for necessary work.
Xie Ning responded obediently.
He is not a character that loves to interact with people.
The script of Zhuang Yan’s new movie has just been released. Although there will definitely be various changes in the follow-up, the birth of the first version also means that many things can be put on the agenda.
Xie Ning was one of the first to see the script.
The background era of the new movie was chosen in the Republic of China.
The Republic of China was an era with a sense of conflict and a sense of resistance, the alternation of old and new ideas, and the rapid changes in society…
Countless people think of the Republic of China, and the first thing they think of except for those black-and-white photos is the struggle between the family and the country and the revolution.
Zhuang Yan has continued his usual style. When you say you want the righteousness of the family and the country, he just wants to tell the lingering love story and the great power of art and love.
But in the details, it reveals the alternation of the new and the old, the contradiction between feudalism and democracy.
After Xie Ning finished reading the script, Zhuang Yan asked what he thought.
Xie Ning blinked: “Is this a love triangle of red and white roses?”
Zhuang Yan: “Yes.”
It sounds like a very old-fashioned plot.
However, Zhuang Yan was originally good at portraying love in a romantic and touching way with the lens and pictures. Xie Ning had seen his delicate observation and handling of feelings, and he was looking forward to it.
This time he also personally participated in the art design of the movie, Xie Ning couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.
He asked: “I don’t have much experience, so I will pick the leader as soon as I come up. Will it be too fast?”
Zhuang Yan raised his eyebrows: “Ningning, when have you been so unsure of your professional level?”
Xie Ning shook his head and said, “I heard Teacher Yang Rui said that the main beauty of the film is not just to immerse yourself in painting. It needs to communicate in many ways, and sometimes it needs to be processed and modified according to the actual scene.”
And communication is Shainin’s hardest thing.
“Moreover, even graduates from prestigious fine arts schools start their studies as assistants when they come out. Few of them directly airborne the master beauty.”
Zhuang Yan chuckled softly: “Do you know what art assistants usually do?”
Xie Ning shook his head: “Isn’t it clear, to assist the artist in drawing?”
Zhuang Yan said: “Making pictures, making forms, writing copywriting, printing documents, and other auxiliary work, the professional requirements are not high, said to be an art assistant, the last two words are the key.”
Art assistants are used to make connections for those who enter the industry. They don’t have much technical content, and they can go directly to associate art after doing it once.
Xie Ning: “…there is also an associate art.”
Zhuang Yan looked at him and said in a deep voice: “The deputy art is for the main beauty. Ning Ning, your skills are not bad at all. With your creative ability and design level, you will work hard in the deputy art group. Every day, the studio and the prop factory are too big to be used. Just like youth, human talents cannot withstand squandering. This is why Mr. Yang wants to recommend you to me so much.”
Xie Ning was startled.
Zhuang Yan said seriously: “Believe in me, and in yourself, your ability is completely capable of being the main beauty of any crew.”
Xie Ning nodded slowly: “Yeah.”
“Besides you, I really can’t find any other main beauty that suits my heart.” Zhuang Yan said again, “I wanted you to draw the scene of “Monologue” before, just to see your level, but I didn’t know at the time. Do you have any intention to enter the film and television art? You dare not speak rashly. I did not expect that Mr. Yang would recommend you to me.”
Xie Ning blinked: “What a coincidence?”
Zhuang Yan smiled: “It means that this is the fate between us. You are destined to come to my crew and be my master.”
The word “main beauty” is nothing, and the word “mine” is added in front, and the atmosphere instantly becomes ambiguous.
Xie Ning’s face burned again in despair. He lowered his head and pretended to continue reading the script, but his red eartips were exposed.
Zhuang Yan couldn’t help but grinned.
When the script comes out, the art team can carry out conceptual design, determine the overall style, and design the atmosphere map.
Xie Ning and several associate artists also met to get to know them. After seeing their works, Xie Ning was relieved.
Apart from other things, his design level and artistic skills are indeed much higher.
I don’t know if it’s an invisible rule in the industry. Most people call the master beauty the art boss, while the deputy art and art assistant save the first two words and call them boss directly.
Xie Ning was very uncomfortable when he heard it, and several times he didn’t respond but called him.
Xie Ning’s work enthusiasm was very high when I first encountered a film and television project. The director Zhuang Yan was ready to go home. Turning around, Xie Ning was still busy.
Zhuang Yan couldn’t help but feel distressed: “Why does it take so hard.”
Xie Ning told the truth: “I’m afraid I didn’t design well enough and ruined your movie, so I try to be perfect.”
“It’s arrogant.” Zhuang Yan glanced at his design draft. Because it was still a draft, it didn’t take shape, and it couldn’t be seen in detail.
But looking at the mess of paper on the table, you can also tell that he probably scrapped a lot of drafts.
Zhuang Yan forcibly dragged him away: “I, the director, didn’t say you destroyed it, so don’t think about these messy things. There are so many people in the art team spending time with you. You are their boss now. If you don’t leave, how dare they? Go ahead.”
Xie Ning saw that he was sitting in his seat with the deputy art and two art assistants in the same room as expected.
So he was taken away by Zhuang Yan without any resistance, and was stuffed into the car.
Recently, Zhuang Yan will send him home when he is finished, because he is on the way.
Xie Ning still lived in the lakeside villa before he had time to move to the house given by Father Xie after the new year. Zhuang Yan fetched him back and forth every morning and evening.
Halfway through the car, Zhuang Yan asked, “Is your food almost gone?”
Xie Ning thought about it: “It doesn’t seem to be much.”
Zhuang Yan turned the steering wheel and the car drove to another road.
“It just so happened.” He said, “I’ll go to the vegetable market to buy some food, let you see my craft tonight?”
Xie Ning’s eyes lit up: “Okay!”
Zhuang Yan’s cooking skills are nothing short of him, and Xie Ning is full of praise for the taste no matter how many times he eats it.
It’s just that he is usually too busy, Xie Ning is not willing to watch him cook with fatigue.
Xie Ning loves hot and sour foods, sweet and sour fish and sweet and sour pork ribs. Wild live fish is not easy to buy this season. The farmer Zhuang Yan disliked it, so he only picked ribs and chicken wings.
Buy more vegetables and eggs, the portion is just right.
Back at the lakeside villa, the car stopped directly in front of Xie Ning’s house.
“You go first.” After Xie Ning got off the car, Zhuang Yan was still sitting in the cab. “I parked the car in the garage first, so I don’t have to drive it again at night.”
Xie Ning nodded: “Then I will wait for you at the door for a while.”
Zhuang Yan refused: “It’s windy outside, go in and wait.”
That is to say, when he drove the car away, Xie Ning thought for a while and stayed at the door and waited for a while.
He enjoyed the road that walked side by side from the gate to the door with Zhuang Yan.
That kind of warmth like home is the feeling he has forgotten for a long time.
The wind was blowing a bit cold, Xie Ning shrank her neck and couldn’t help rubbing her hands.
A black figure walked over on the opposite side of the road with two gift boxes in his hand. It was estimated that someone was here to visit.
When he walked near Xie Ning, he saw a person standing here, and he subconsciously looked over and was taken aback.
He rubbed his eyes and took a look at it again, with a surprised expression on his face.
“Thanks, Xie Ning?!”
Hearing someone calling his name, Xie Ning turned his head in surprise.
“It’s really you!” he asked in shock, “Why are you here?”
Xie Ning was shocked.
It’s Xu Qing.
The author has something to say: Zhuangzhuang: (with no expression on his face) Why did I leave for a few minutes, and people with short eyes stuck to Ningning.
Ningning: I don’t know qaq
Xu Qing didn’t have much play, and he wouldn’t have too much contact with Ningning, and let Zhuang Zhuang solve him. This time he came to assist.
The content of the film art is made up with reference to a little information.
Without any professionalism, when I checked the information, I found that most of the domestic production crews seemed to be the same as the art director and the main beauty. I felt that Ningning could not afford the job of Meizhi at this time, so I separated.
Just pretend I’m writing it! ! ! Don’t take the evidence seriously! !
The entertainment industry is mainly related to the career lines of Zhuang Zhuang and Ningning, mostly behind-the-scenes work, literary film directors and art original artists, may write crews, film theaters, etc., but there should be only a little bit.
Zhuang Zhuang and Ning Ning will not be stars, and apologize to the little angel who was attracted by the entertainment industry label.
ps: I updated it in advance today! ! ! Rounding up is one hour ahead! ! !
thank!
