Zombie film of the year, is the director's bitterness behind it?

Lola 2022-04-16 09:01:09

My name is Takayuki Higurashi, and I am a young director who makes a living by shooting variety show VTR and karaoke videos.

It is not easy to go out to shoot, so I use the "eight-character policy" to summarize my business capabilities: " quick, cheap, and good quality ."

The so-called "love one line to do one line", even if it is mixed, I still like it

Relying on this easy-to-understand production concept, it can be considered a job, a meal, and even repeat customers.

For example, this producer actually asked me to shoot the "One Shot" zombie movie as a special opening episode? !

Well, since "Party A's father" opened his mouth, I naturally have to devote myself to the creation with joy (after all, no one dares to accept it, after all, it is still one shot to the end), but who would have thought that this short film called "One Corpse to the End", from the beginning, was A piece of shit!

I just frowned slightly, how do I know how terrible the next month will be...

[The camera does not stop! ]

01

preparatory stage

No matter how absurd it is, it has to be designed

One of the pains of an adult man is that he goes home without the emotion of work, and makes his wife feel that I am cowardly, that I am not pursuing, and that I am too lazy to explain it.

But the conflict with my daughter is the big issue that I should be more concerned about.

My daughter threw herself into filming (follow me, so happy), but she just didn't know how to be flexible and kept her mouth open. Thinking of this, my head was swollen.

The starting point is good, but so blunt... Today's children are difficult to deal with (shiitake mushrooms)

But who knows, this trivial matter of family is nothing compared to the actors in the script study stage...

The heroine is an idol star. It is said that she wants to act in a zombie movie. After reading the script, she doesn't want to act, and that part has to be deleted...

The producer is still a fan of her, so it's not enough to act for him. He said that he should change the script, and he agreed immediately. What else can I say?

One action took the producer down and found a big backer, but, okay, okay

Change it if you say it, can you not be so casual! ! !

I recited NMB a hundred times in my heart, and then said with a smile: OK

The male protagonist pretends to be lofty, forcibly obsessed, zombie movies, and has to talk about racial issues.

He also has the same urination with the heroine, and what he does not understand must be changed. In 2018, why can't there be a zombie with an axe? He also put on a stinky face to the supporting actor in glasses (the zombie with an axe is his horn, hey), they invited you to mess with you, and I invited you to mess with you?

pretend you're a jerk

There are also alcoholics who shake hands when they don't drink; bald-headed men who drink hard water and lose their breaths; female No. 2 who brings a baby to read the script ; On such a wonderful crew!

On the first day of study, I became ambiguous like this. It's really a short film, gossip first.

It's taking care of the baby again, and drinking too much wine and knocking over the water bottle, the drama can be more

Not to mention the doll who kept crying and making background noise, the script read like this on the first day, me, I was stoked

As for the script...change it

When it came time to explain the script, I thought the work would finally be on track, but... the photographer actually had a disease in his waist and couldn't play handheld for a long time. What's the trouble? This is.

The master is arrogant, the assistant is vulgar, the master is sick, the apprentice... top, I have to kneel

It can be regarded as an outdoor simulation, and the hero of Ya still insists on deleting the story of the man in glasses cutting people with an axe. He is popular, and he can't be hard on him, so he can only discuss it.

The heroine has no tears in the crying scene. She wants to use eye drops to make only one crying scene, but she can't cry... that's all, that's all.

The second man and the second woman are there again, the bald man is trying to figure out what to do with his diarrhea, and the drunkard is still there swearing not to drink (it’s weird to believe you!)…

What can I do, grit my teeth and insist on being quilted, who says it's done...

02

filming stage

Tooth clenching has to be done

After working for such a long time, it can be considered an experience. It is the first time I have met such a crew with a lot of things, and I can't be tough, and life is hard.

The big man can't cry clearly, he can only stay in a small corner by himself, looking at the photos of his daughter when he was a child, crying quietly, quietly... venting.

It's embarrassing, and I let my wife see my cowardly side... hey, it's hard to say

With great difficulty, I finally got through to the start of filming. Damn, as long as this day is over, everything will be fine, and I will collect the money and leave.

To be honest, no matter how depressed you are, you still have the energy to do it, after all... love

Thousands of warnings and instructions, once the machine is turned on, it will not stop. In order not to make mistakes, I specially hide the celebration wine (you have not seen the greedy eyes of the alcoholic)... But it still went wrong, rub!

First, the bald-headed brother took the wrong water bottle and drank hard water... (this is not meant to be diarrhea), then the two men and two women derailed reasonably, and the two were in a car, and it was a normal car accident. And then again, the alcoholic is still... stealing the wine, a sentence of NMB, I don't know if it should be said or not.

No matter what you say, you talk about it, even if you hide the wine, it's useless

Having an affair as soon as the baby was born, one word is amazing (NMB)

The script could not be changed, and the actors could not be found temporarily. The producer also emphasized that the video must be filmed, and at the critical moment...you had to rely on yourself, and the wife who went crazy as soon as she acted (death...).

The so-called cold water will make your teeth gnawed, which probably means now

Look, the problem is not solved by me, the director

As for the method, it's actually quite simple. My wife and I play the quilt together.

The fact that the wife can act is actually the result of the daughter's insistent request, and of course it is impossible (= =).

Thinking back to that time, my heart palpitates!

Although I am not happy in every possible way, I can only take one step at a time

After that, it's easy to start shooting, as long as the camera doesn't stop, as long as you don't wear gangs, everything is OK!

To tell the truth, self-directed and self-acting is still quite nervous.

And I can also spit bitterness in the name of acting , haha, very good.

You say you're welcome, then you're welcome

If I tell you that I will shoot well, I must shoot well

Of course, this is the true character of Lao Tzu, and the truth is revealed

In this scene, father A also said it was good (not that I scolded it well)

After the cool down, he seems to be full of energy. Of course, there are still broken things, and solutions must be solved.

The alcoholic can't act because he drinks too much, so I will help him act, but I have pity on the man with eyes (because he really vomits, vomits)

I'm a little surprised that Father A still thinks it's okay to mess around like this

I didn't even expect that a bald man who stopped acting with diarrhea would also be able to produce results and be praised again (laughing and crying)

The bald man had diarrhea and almost ruined the whole scene, but what can I say, after all, people are about to pull their crotch.

Fortunately, my daughter helped me a lot and made the plot connect.

At this time, I don't have time to care if he is shitting or not, so I just put on makeup

However, what I was worried about at the beginning still appeared, and my wife was too deeply involved in the play again .

At this point, I'm really nervous

I said daughter, your proposal is really reliable.

First he slapped the male protagonist without hesitation, and then he was about to slash the female protagonist. I was terrified watching from the side.

When are you shivering, it's now, oh my god

At this time, she actually had a burst of physical strength, and kicked me and the man with glasses one after another (the second time she also kicked my life...).

Fortunately, in the end, Lao Tzu made her dizzy, but the price was that the rocker arm was broken.

If you don't have a rocker arm, you can't shoot the blood curse on the ground. If you can't shoot the blood curse, the video will not be complete, and the whole effort will be in vain!

This producer is really good, there are only 5 minutes left, what are you doing?

At the last moment, it was my daughter's strength. In the absence of a rocker arm, I thought of using a human ladder to set up a rocker arm, and it was done smoothly.

It was also at this moment that I finally broke out against the idiot producer, but I had to admit to being a father, but the pursuit of art still touched my daughter (just sometimes forced by life, you know).

Shout first, then apologize, face is not as important as money, that's all

The final shot was shot as required, and I don't care about the producer's scorn

However, the nonsense of the crew can't match his daughter's smiling face. Reconciling with her means that "One Corpse to the End" was not shot in vain.

The ending is naturally happy, double happiness.

03

Do not stop the camera

what the hell? !

Although "One Corpse to the End" came to an end, after thinking about it carefully, I felt that I couldn't hold it back by myself, and I had to warn the newcomers and entertain the audience no matter what.

So, a new movie called [The Camera Don't Stop] is out.

It's just... I didn't play cards according to the routine this time:

The movie begins with a crew shooting in a factory rumored to be haunted by zombies, his director is crazy (you know how), and his actors suffer (you know, they, right).

After another NG, the director became mad and the filming stopped. Everyone was calming down. I didn't expect a zombie to attack. It bit the man with glasses, and the corpse turned into a bald man. The film crew was at stake, but the director went mad and shot with passion.

In the end, the heroine was overwhelmed and transformed fiercely. She killed her zombie boyfriend, chopped up the lunatic director (there was none), and was covered in blood standing under the summoned blood curse, in agony.

Then, bang, the screen changed, a month ago.

At this point, you must be thinking, what's going on here? Isn't it a zombie movie, how come a month ago, do you want to talk about the former situation?

That's right, it's about the former situation, but it's another kind of former situation, that is, the years of my hard work on the crew, the years of my ass-wiping years, and the behind-the-scenes story of "One Corpse in the End".

Haha, honestly, I admire my brains. As for you, the judges, Bo Jun smiled, that's all.
