Chapter 175 Everyone Shows Their Magical Powers
After Director Wang agreed to extend the shooting time of the promotional video, the two groups of guests showed off their talents and invited everyone they could think of.
Because new lyrics had to be composed and the shadow puppets had to be remade, a week seemed a bit rushed. It was obvious that such a huge workload could not be accomplished by a group of professionals or amateurs.
It is obvious that Yuanluo does not have such connections. It is not difficult to find ordinary shadow puppet artists to make the shadow puppets. However, the unique singing style of Changshui shadow puppetry is not something that everyone can write a new one in a short period of time.
Yuanluo was helpless. She was a complete layman when it came to shadow puppetry. After much thought, she had to seek help from the almighty Baidu. She soon found several inheritors of Changshui shadow puppetry, several representative inheritors who lived not too far away.
For the first time, Yuanluo looked at her elder brother for help. Ji Huaian knew that Yuanluo might have really encountered a problem that she couldn't solve.
"Tell me, what do you need me to do? Don't worry, there will be no problem if you leave it to me." Ji Huaian almost patted his chest to make the promise.
There is indeed no more suitable candidate at the moment. Yuanluo had discussed this with a group of people before, but they didn’t know anyone who knew shadow puppetry.
So Yuanluo can only pin her hopes on her older brother now. Her older brother has been involved in the family business since high school, so it is not particularly difficult for him to make new connections.
Ji Huaian only dared to do whatever he wanted because he had an older sister who could take on the responsibility, but this did not mean that he did not have the ability to do so.
"I would like to ask my elder brother to invite a few people for me. Zhou Libai, Liu Yian, and Hu Zhongsheng are the more orthodox inheritors of Changshui shadow play. Can my elder brother invite them for me? The new lyrics need professional guidance."
Yuanluo knew that this request was somewhat embarrassing. She didn't expect to invite all of them, but if she could invite them all, it would be good if one could come.
After hearing what his sister said, Ji Huaian thought for a while and said, "This is not a difficult task. I can try and give you the results within two days."
Seeing Ji Huaian's confident look, Yuan Luo felt a little hope in her heart. Ji Huaian said goodbye to the program crew and left alone to find a way to hire someone.
[I suddenly felt that Brother Ji was not completely useless. As soon as my sister asked, he really agreed without hesitation.]
[Is it possible that Yuanluo didn't dislike her elder brother, but just felt that she could handle the small matter by herself, so why did she need her elder brother to help? ]
[Boss Luo is really thoughtful. The three people you just mentioned are all representative figures of Changshui shadow play. They are not easy to come by. Is Brother Ji really okay? ]
[Why didn't the program group send a group of guests to live broadcast Brother Ji? He is really handsome in my heart. He is so handsome, loves his sister, and is very outstanding. ]
[Where does Haier get such courage? Maybe Luo is unwilling. Brother Ji and his sister are investors.]
Although Yuanluo trusted her eldest brother's ability, she did not dare to put all her hopes on him. After Ji Huaian left, Yuanluo explained the situation to the people in the same group.
Because the previous shooting idea was unanimously discussed and approved by the team, and everyone was aware of the difficulty of completing this idea, when it came to discussing an alternative plan, everyone in the team expressed understanding.
After discussing for more than an hour, we initially worked out an alternative plan. The shooting difficulty was much lower, and we knew without trying that the presentation effect would not be as good as the initial idea. The worst result would be a mediocre promotional video.
After the agreement was reached, everyone in Building A went out at the same time to shoot the footage. No matter which shooting plan was chosen in the end, these materials could be used, so no one in the post-production team was worried.
Zhao Zhang is the director and knows quite a few reliable post-production personnel. But this time there is no need to use Zhao Zhang's connections. Yuanluo just made a phone call and mobilized Qingluo Entertainment's ace team.
These people will arrive tomorrow, so everyone is thinking about how to find the best shooting angle. Watermelon lanterns are different from shadow puppets and require improvised lyrics and music. Yuanluo gathered together all the people who could carve watermelon lanterns and let them carve as they pleased.
The group also recorded a lot of the process of carving watermelon lanterns. Contrary to Yuanluo's stereotype of intangible cultural heritage inheritors, there are actually quite a few young people, both boys and girls, who are inheriting the watermelon lanterns.
The carving knives flew in their hands, and soon many patterns came to life on the watermelon lanterns. Different from the older inheritors, the young inheritors carved more diverse patterns. Some even carved a Doraemon watermelon lantern.
Zhao Zhang thought there were several patterns that he really liked, so he zoomed in for close-up shots.
In Building B, the director invited by Lin Chao is Ling Xiaoyue, who is much older than Lin Chao. The two met by chance at a cocktail party, and became friends because they unexpectedly discovered that they got along very well.
When Building B saw that the person invited was Ling Xiaoyue, his uneasy heart instantly settled down. Ling Xiaoyue was considered a famous director in the circle, not to mention that he brought his team with him.
With the addition of professionals, the people in Building B felt that they had some chance of winning. With Ling Xiaoyue's presence, at least they could ensure that their promotional video would not be too outrageous, and it also solved the problem of post-production.
While the people in Building A were shooting materials everywhere, the people in Building B were still discussing the shooting plan. Ling Xiaoyue's ideas were different from those in Building A. He believed that the most eye-catching things were delicious food, beautiful scenery and beautiful women.
Needless to say, there are beautiful scenery here and there are also many delicious foods. Ling Xiaoyue had learned more about the place before coming here. Compared with more elegant artistic pursuits, he felt that the promotional video should be more down-to-earth.
The reason why people want to travel to another city is just to see different scenery and taste different food from their hometown.
Therefore, he wanted to briefly mention the local intangible cultural heritage. Although the watermelon lanterns look beautiful, they do not last long and are seasonal. Shadow puppetry is not liked by everyone, and it is not worth coming to Changshui just for shadow puppetry.
Lin Chao didn't understand artistic photography. When Ling Xiaoyue told him his shooting plan, Lin Chao thought it was a good entry point, so he didn't express any objections.
But because Ling Xiaoyue mentioned beauty, Bai Jingke felt that this was her chance. Being able to appear in a promotional video of a place would be a highlight in future marketing. With such a good opportunity in front of her, she must seize it.
"Director Ling, I think what you said makes sense, but just shooting the scenery of the lake and mountains is a bit too monotonous. I think it might be better to combine dance and scenery."
