MTL - Strange Life of a Cat-Chapter 306 Cat owner
Here at Zheng Tan, Dao Jiao told him before coming that it was necessary to dress silly.
What is "when necessary"?
For example, people who do n’t want to shoot, people who do n’t want to cooperate, unsuitable places, uncomfortable body or urgency, etc. can be pretending to be stupid, pretending not to know how to perform or rolling in place, who makes him a Cats, how much can people in the shooting crew put on a cat? The headache caused the team members to deal with it. Xiaoguo sent so many people to fight soy sauce. It was said that Xiao Guo and Dao Jiao had no private agreement to negotiate, and Zheng Tan did not believe in beating.
However, this is good for him. Zheng Tan understands that being clever can be, but acting too clever will cause life doubts. For some unnecessary troubles, it is sometimes safer to be stupid.
Many cameras Zheng Tan would never shoot before, but this time it is rare to endure. After all, this documentary is different from advertising and consumes a lot of manpower and material resources. Since Zheng Tan took responsibility for this job, and These shots are very common for ordinary cats, and the strike is indeed unjustifiable.
Zheng Tan wore a “makeup” that was uncomfortable, and she had to make up after a while, especially the eyebrows and beards, which had to be accidentally pinched and recolored. After all, Zheng Tan ’s beard was black, and the photo The cat mustache is white.
Fortunately, Zheng Tan's efficiency is relatively high, and the entire shooting is much less than Yang Yi's plan.
The people in the shooting group thought that it would take a long time to take these photos. I didn't expect this cat to cooperate so well. In their opinion, the cat is naturally one of them, and more often, the followers heard that it was special care. Cat team. In the free time, the people in the shooting group also pulled the team members sent by Xiao Guo to exchange experiences. They did not know that the team was smiling with a smile, and they did not dare to talk about some facts. They had signed several contracts. Xiao Guo explained how they responded.
Now Zheng Tan doesn't know how he performed. Only from Yang Yi's expression, he can see that he hasn't reached the standard. The specific effect can only be waited for the final production. The old man who acted with Zheng Tan looked more like granddaughter Yang Yi from the side. Of course, he also put on makeup and tried to be more like. Plus some shooting techniques. Zheng Tan believes that when it is actually produced, it should be able to satisfy Yang Yi.
Among them, Zheng Tan also came into contact with some commonly used things of that era, such as furnace ash cat litter. At that time almost every family was burning coal. It's easy to pack. There are also handmade cats. The people in the courtyard made it for the little **** who went in and out all day, and opened a half-foot hole and hung curtains. Fat cats will also drive larger. No high technology existed, but it worked fine at the time.
In addition to Zheng Tan, Mi Xiaomi also made a guest appearance, Yang Yi was going to shoot some scenes where cats usually played and played.
Among them, Xiaomi was so happy Yang Yi did that guy, even if it was alone, he could stand up immediately, schizophrenic self-confidence, biting his feet, running around the narrow fence, and having fun. Then the s-shaped tail was raised, and the chrysanthemum was stretching towards the setting sun. Then, it started to call for food.
Everyone followed when they were shooting. Zhao Le's mother also came to the scene in person, she didn't care about her cat's shame, but she also felt that the cat should be like this. Zheng Tan can see that Zhao Le's mother takes Xiaomi very seriously, and it seems that Xiaomi is very appetite for this.
On the other side of the rice, although there is no field fright, it is too calm and quiet by comparison. Standing on the high wall, it will not move. Yang Yi does not know what to do. After all, this cat was requested by Fang Shaokang. Yes, there must be something to shoot?
"The two are really brothers?" One of the crew asked. He refers to Xiaomi and Rice.
"Rice is a girl!" Fang Mengmeng pointed his ears and corrected.
"Oh, girl, it's quiet." The crew member smiled, he didn't know about cats, and didn't know how to use patterns to determine some special genders. After smiling, he looked at Fang Meng. Moe said, "Will you make your family smile?"
Do you laugh?
Can the cat laugh?
Fang Mengmeng teased under the fence for a long time, the rice on the wall finally moved, the front paw stepped on the ground twice, straightened his back, looked down, and finally pulled out a ridiculous "laugh".
The crew of the watching group: "..."
Nima, so scary!
Several people scratched their arms unconsciously, feeling goosebumps all up.
Fang Mengmeng doesn't feel anything, because usually rice is only natural when it is facing a familiar person. Once it is unnatural, it is either facial paralysis or this expression. It is even worse when you are in a bad mood. Fang Shaokang Deep experience.
Now rice probably feels that there are too many people below the fence, and the atmosphere is a bit dull. It is not as active as Xiaomi, and usually does not actively stretch its paws outside. , Can only judge its emotional changes by facial expressions. Of course, it may not be a smile of rice just now, it's just a change of face and mouth. It looks like a smile. However, it can only be like this if we continue.
"Okay, that lens was just fine, every cat is different, we have to shoot a grade and also have a feature." Yang Yi was very satisfied, at least took some new things, but also explained to Fang Shaokang.
At the end of this period, Xiaomi was taken away by Zhao Le's mother. Before leaving, Zheng Tan also heard that Zhao Le's mother was chatting with someone next to her and said that she was glad to bring Xiaomi back, otherwise It would be frustrating to use rice.
On the other side of the rice, Fang Mengmeng was even more fortunate that he chose rice. Xiaomi was too frustrating, and his own rice was obedient.
Maybe some people say that other people ’s cats are always good, but even if they praise other people ’s cats, in the minds of cat owners, the first is their own cats, whether they are bad guys or stuffy gourds. Love.
This documentary is not limited to those of Grandpa Yang Yi. The film crew also interviewed other people, although Zheng Tan was not interviewed later. But Zheng Tan can't leave yet, and some shots may need to be retaken. Zheng Tan stays a bit longer just in case, so Zheng Tan follows them to see the interviewees.
The first one was to go to the home of an old writer and an old lady.
The interview was more life-like, and the shooting location was at the two elderly people's homes. The children are often not around, the two old men have cats, and now they are a white rural cat. The cat was curious and alert when he saw Zheng Tan. Has been hiding around the old man and old woman staring at Zheng Tan.
Zheng Tan wandered around the room. The cat did not respond, but just stretched his neck and stared at Zheng Tan until Zheng Tan came to its cat's nest. When approaching its cat's rice bowl. The cat is frizzy. Rushing forward and yelling at Zheng Tan with his back and waving his claws.
"Ah, don't worry, the black cat won't fight." Yang Yi appeased the old lady who was a little worried. Then ask when the two old men can start.
After Zheng Tan left her rice bowl and cat's nest, she immediately ran back to the old lady.
The two elderly people do not know how many interviews they have given, so they can calmly cope with this. Directors do n’t deliberately ask them to do anything,
When the old lady reads and cooks, when the old man writes, when he listens to the radio, and the cat's reaction, he shoots.
When the old man was writing, the cat jumped on the desk to make troubles, stepping on the old man's manuscript paper and pushing it, he couldn't push it, and when he pushed again, he lay directly on the manuscript paper.
The old man was not upset, and smiled and scratched the chin of the cat lying on the manuscript paper with the end of the pen. Instead, let me write a manuscript and praise it ... "
Looking at the appearance of the old man, he was not bullied and annoyed at all, but was very happy.
The old man said that Beijing's literati are good at cats, and gave several examples of peer writers.
According to the literati, the cats in Beijing are somewhat like the masters who are well-loved. Although most of the long-term workers who catch and eat from mice have become pets in high-rise apartments, they have the same taste in their bones. They do not matter whether the person they are facing is a literary man or a small citizen.
What is the virtue of Chu Hua's cat? Zheng Tan thought about the cats he knew, and after thinking about it, it seemed that the few cats he knew were special, and perhaps they were also representative of Chuhua cats.
In addition to the cat now, the old man also recalled the cats he had raised before, and the old lady also took out an album and showed it to everyone.
During the interview, the two elderly people were often immersed in memories and sometimes thought quietly. It seemed that they had forgotten that there were still people shooting interviews, and there were several quiet scenes. However, neither Yang Yi nor the other members of the shooting team turned off or interrupted, and there was no impatient look on the face.
Zheng Tan was informed of this situation by Charlie before he came, and Yang Yi told him to come. After each quiet time, what the old man said was more vivid, very real and very life. When talking about a cat, the old woman's eyes became red several times. The cat stayed with the two old men for more than ten years, and it was considered dead.
The camera crew then interviewed a Chinese painting master ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ When the old man interviewed, he also took out a painting full of cat footprints. At that time, the old man was painting a fish, and his cat jumped on the table. Trouble, stamped everywhere, the old man repaired the painting, then framed it, collected it, and when guests came to talk about related topics from the family, the old man showed the painting and said that his cat was quite good Artistic talent.
Zheng Tan also looked at the painting with him in the past, not to mention that it looked quite artistic. It was indeed a master of Chinese painting. Like it was shown in the movie about Tang Bohu that year, it can always turn decay into magic.
Photographers are very good at capturing details, which will make the whole film more vivid and full of soul.
After the entire filming, the cat owners I interviewed included artists, educators, several famous schools in Beijing, libraries, and some ordinary people. Zheng Tan followed the streets and lanes. Different venue backgrounds, various cat breeds, cats with different spleen, united together, plus those professional production and polishing, Zheng Tan believes this will be a good film No matter what other people think, Zheng Tan thinks he is very good.
I heard from the shooting crew that after the production, the film is likely to be sent to participate in the competition. However, the production will have to wait until next year, which is now the end of the year. (To be continued ...)
