I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 5 005. Yang·Good Legs·Honey

"This is here, classmate Yang Mi, right?"

Yu Zhen smiled and waved.

"You're more beautiful than you look in your art photos."

Following her praise, Yang Mi quickly showed a modest look on her face:

"Thank you teacher for the compliment."

As she spoke, she walked into the audition hall.

Xu Xin was in a daze for a while...

I always feel that the other person looks more beautiful in the dream.

However, this idea did not exist for long. Dreaming about a beautiful girl can be said to be an erotic dream. But if you catch that beautiful girl YY in your dream, then you are called a gangster.

But he did not move his eyes away. Instead, as the girl walked in, his eyes fell on her legs.

This time...

Not to mention him, even Yu Zhen showed the envy and jealousy unique to women...

Thought:

"This kid's legs are a bit foul."

First of all, the calf is very thin, but the muscle lines are very perfect. Because of the Achilles tendon, it looks extremely slender.

Furthermore, the black stockings that the other party chose today are not pure black. The black is not heavy and you can easily see the color inside.

With snow-white skin, this pair of stockings with just the right color can highlight all the advantages and cover up all the flaws...

Even as a woman, Yu Zhen felt amazing in her heart.

Not to mention Xu Xin.

Facing the gazes of the two men, Yang Mi did not dodge at all. Instead, she stood generously in the aisle of the audition hall, making a cross step.

On the right high heels, as the angle changes, all the details are revealed to Xu Xin and Yu Zhen.

She is an actress.

In the winter in Yanjing, the reason why I came to school wearing only a pair of stockings without any thermal insulation measures was for the audition.

In this case, why should we refuse other people's observation?

And her generous appearance immediately won Yu Zhen's favor.

Sure enough, the performance department does have good prospects this year.

Reliable.

Thinking of this, she turned to Xu Xin and said:

"Xu Xin, she is Yang Mi, and you are both level 05. She has rich acting experience. When she was very young, she played the role of Mr. Xing's daughter in "Beggar Su Qier", and she has continued to play roles over the years. He has played many roles, and his acting skills are very mature among his peers.”

Following Yu Zhen's introduction, Yang Mi naturally focused her attention on Xu Xin.

Unlike Xu Xin who had only seen each other in her dreams, Yang Mi knew Xu Xin...or rather, the entire level 05. Even if she didn't know what he looked like, she had to say whether she knew him or not. She stopped across the street from the school that day. , the Ferrari owner who got a ticket one day but never cared about it...

I really can't find a few.

Is it this rich second generation who is making the movie?

Yang Mi was a little surprised.

It's not that she doubted the other party's ability... The call Yang Mi received yesterday was made by Professor Yu, the deputy director of the directing department.

The invitation was sent out in person, and I hope she can come to the school to audition tomorrow.

First of all, a film that Professor Yu can call personally, even if it is just a "student's work" as the other party calls it, cannot be underestimated. What's more, the professor himself said that "the script is excellent."

Secondly, even if it is possible that this rich second generation used money to persuade Professor Yu to get involved here, then she still has to give him face.

The competition among actors is very cruel. Not to mention those who will graduate in the future, even the classmates in their freshman class will fight overtly and covertly once there is any audition in school.

The entertainment industry is a small society based on human relationships. Yang Mi has understood this since she was very young.

Therefore, even if the rich second generation in front of her wants to make a movie, she will show her best side to him.

On the one hand, you can hone your acting skills, but on the other hand... the network resources of the deputy director of Beijing Film Academy's directing department... may not be particularly helpful to the actor's future improvement. But when it comes to putting tiny shoes on someone's shoes...it's so easy.

Due to both emotion and reason, Yang Mi would not let this opportunity go.

Therefore, after hearing Yu Zhen's words, she greeted Xu Xin in a very friendly tone:

"Hello, classmate Xu. I'm Yang Mi, a freshman in the performance department in class 2005."

"Hello."

Xu Xin shifted his attention from the legs to the other person's face and nodded politely:

"Xu Xin, a freshman in the directing department...if you don't mind..."

Seeing that the other party was only wearing a short down jacket, with a slim skirt and stockings, Xu Xin took off his MAXMARA camel hair coat worth more than 20,000 yuan, put it politely on the table, and then put it in his hand. The script about the first room was pressed against the clothes.

Yang Mi was surprised for a while, but she instantly developed a favorable impression of the rich second generation who gave her the autonomy of "where to sit".

It was indeed a bit cold inside the audition hall.

She was really freezing all the time.

"Thank you. Then I'll read the script first."

"Um."

Looking at the girl who finally chose to sit three seats away and put her coat on the stool, Xu Xin withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Teacher Li who was beginning to check the storyboards he designed.

And Yang Mi, who sat down, opened the script with cold fingers and felt the warmth coming from the stool...

His face also turned slightly red.

There's no talking about what I like or what I do.

It was purely because... I felt the warm body temperature of a strange boy.

Warm and comfortable.

…

Yang Mi was reading the script, and Xu Xin was not idle either. Instead, he kept his eyes on Yu Zhen's face on the other side.

Because the other party is watching his footage.

To be honest, he is also a layman on what it means to be a director. The shots are all drawn based on my own subjective imagination, so I really need Teacher Yu’s opinion.

After Yu Zhen looked at it for a while, she immediately showed a rather surprised look.

Shot splitting is a very important reference level for a director to interpret artistic works.

Let’s take the simplest example for comparison.

It's also a character entering the scene. Some directors shoot it and it's just a close-up. However, some directors can take into account external environmental factors and use a simple close-up to directly convey a certain emotion to the audience through a series of factors such as lens, light, shadow, etc.

It is a test of the director’s skills.

And how did Xu Xin’s split shots go?

To be honest, average.

Throughout the story, although the painting is very good, and even the lighting requirements in certain places were given a vague range through his own imagination...but this kind of split shot does not have any technical content.

Tell a straight story.

Everything you want the audience to see is expressed.

There is not too much artistic rendering.

But it was enough to surprise her.

You know... the other party is famous for skipping classes and sleeping in...

And I only studied the first half of my freshman year.

Apart from anything else, there are countless new recruits who don’t even know how to trace light, or when to use which lens.

But now this poor student can provide himself with a storyboard work that can give him a passing score of at least 90 points from the perspective of a "teacher".

How could it not be surprising?

What is the most important first step in becoming a director?

It's very simple, it's how to tell a story clearly to the audience through the language of the camera.

Don’t use filters, frame extraction, or anything like that, and don’t moan pointlessly and use all kinds of fancy shots to confuse the audience.

As a late beginner, it is already surprising that I can take pictures, dare to take pictures, and know how to take pictures.

This is why the final assignment is for everyone to make a short short film.

It’s not about how good your shots are, it’s about trying to capture the feeling of the director.

And now with this shot in her hand... Whether it was a close-up, a shooting angle, or her ability to grasp far, medium, and close shots, Yu Zhen asked herself, if this was a test paper, the score she would give would definitely not be low. At 90 minutes.

It's surprising enough.

Very mature and stable.

Tell a solid story.

Direct movies seriously.

This shot...

"Xu Xin, was this really painted by you?"

She couldn't help but ask again.

Yang Mi on the other side couldn't help but raise her head after hearing this.

Then I heard a response:

"No, Teacher Yu, I bought it."

"..."

Yang Mi's heart skipped a beat...

But Yu Zhen couldn't help laughing:

"Smelly poor! You kid..."

Then, Yang Mi's heart skipped a beat again...

Not that I was speechless.

Instead, he noticed the "favor" that a teacher has for "good students" in the deputy director's tone.

Her eyes wandered, and she lowered her head silently.

And just for a while, there was another noisy movement outside.

A middle-aged man opened the door first.

"Director Yu."

"Oh, Director Sun, come in quickly... who are these students?"

Looking at the dozen men and women who walked in with Director Sun, after Yu Zhen finished asking, Director Sun smiled and said:

"These are freshmen and sophomores who haven't left yet. I thought about letting them try it out and find out how they feel."

While talking, these people had already noticed Xu Xin sitting next to Yu Zhen, and Yang Mi next to her with a coat on her legs.

That rich second generation?

Yang Mi?

Everyone was surprised for a while. Before they could figure out what happened, they heard Yu Zhen shouting at Xu Xin:

"Xu Xin, you are the director, please give us the audition instructions. Director Sun, come on, we will be assistants in selecting roles today. Come on, classmates, come sit here and let the director talk to you. Let’s talk about today’s interview.”

"Can."

Director Sun agreed happily and walked to Yu Zhen first, took a look at Xu Xin and sat down.

Xu Xin, while everyone was looking for a seat, stood up directly, walked generously to the podium in front, and stepped onto the steps.

When he turned around, he saw the eyes of these dozen people falling on him.

Are you nervous...?

Not really.

But he saw doubts and a trace of absurdity in some people's eyes.

He thought for a while, then suddenly walked to the lectern, picked up the chalk, and under the gaze of everyone, turned around and wrote a few words on the blackboard:

Title: "Not Drunk"

Director: Xu Xin
