TV series "digging images" torture the bottom line of the industry and the film and television industry were squeezed into a vulnerable group in the later stage

When a TV series spends most of its money on the actors, the actors leave after filming for a few days, leaving behind the scenes staff with meager wages who have to do the most work, their hard work is not easy. Who will guarantee it?

to spend most of the money on actors in a TV series? After filming for a few days, the actors leave with their butts, leaving the rest with a meager salary but having to do the most work. It is not easy for them to put in their hard work. Who will guarantee it?

Giving traffic stars "portraits" is not the original intention of post-production

. It is actually nothing special for actors to use special effects and doubles when performing. Special effects technology has developed rapidly over the past few decades. From making model props in the past to now using computer synthesis to make real things real, it is enough to help directors solve some troublesome things in actual shooting. As for stand-in, it allows professionals to complete professional dangerous shots to avoid actors 'personal safety and at the same time provide sensory stimulation to the audience. Both of these are common types of work in the film and television industry.

However, in a recent TV series that has been criticized by everyone, it is quite rare for the lead and supporting actors to use special effects and stand-ins to speak, and even the lead and lead actors to need stand-ins to speak. This all comes from the sick production of domestic TV dramas. For a movie with an investment of hundreds of millions, 80% or even 90% of the remaining production costs are certainly not enough; and the leading actors who take the majority, in order to rush to complete this movie, may be purely a money-making movie for themselves. They are unwilling to endure hardship, ride horses, shoot exterior locations, and of course, they are unwilling to memorize lines. So the lead actor can say "one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, five, four, three, two, one" in front of the green screen in the shed, and then put on various performances such as pain, happiness, confusion, happiness, sadness, smile, laughter, etc., and then finish dozens of episodes in a week, and then leave and run to the set of the next series or variety show.

The remaining materials are used to make it difficult for post-production personnel. In the later stage, you need to help lip-synch and close the shots for the male and female protagonists. If you can't close, you will find a substitute to complete it. Then you can finish filming the scenes where other supporting roles appear, and then use special effects to combine them together... If it takes a few years for a top special effects team of hundreds of people to do it, it can barely be seamless. However, when the two protagonists take away most of the production costs, and the remaining money will have to be evenly distributed. How much can there be in the later stage?

Seeing that the start time when he signed the contract with the TV station was about to arrive, the producer didn't care about the director's artistic pursuits, just fooled it a little, got it, and then got someone to dub it, and it was over. It also saves trouble for the special effects production team. After all, those special effects staff who only earn a few thousand yuan a month do not have any passion or motivation to do this kind of work-what kind of technical job is helping lazy actors pick up portraits? This was certainly not the original intention of their business.

When a TV series spends most of its money on the actors, the actors leave after filming for a few days, leaving behind the scenes staff with meager wages who have to do the most work, their hard work is not easy. Who will guarantee it?

"Magic" reality interrogates the bottom line of the industry

When the audience sits in front of the TV and sees the final product, even the most foolish audience can see that there is something wrong with the "fake" TV series. Perhaps, the only ones who can really fool are the fans of the leading actors. They were willing to give various explanations to justify the lie of their idols. Of course, the production team of the TV series was in a difficult position and tied to the same boat. Naturally, they had to present various evidence to prove that these leading actors had really been filmed for so long. Then the second question comes-if it was really done in a few days after filming and was in a hurry to do it later, you can understand it; if it really took a few months and spent so much time, you still have to do this kind of portrait, then may I ask if these leading actors are just here to make lunch boxes on the set?

Goebbels, Hitler's propaganda minister, once said that if a lie is repeated a thousand times, it will become the truth. When this kind of abnormal thing happens repeatedly, when everyone agrees that a TV series can tolerate the lead actor taking the most money and then airing it openly, perhaps gradually, this will become the industry's "industry rule". Chen Daoming once lamented in the past that when he filmed "Besieged City", the ten-episode TV series was filmed for more than half a year, shooting one episode a month. But today's TV series, I can't wait to finish filming all in a month.

It is estimated that Teacher Chen Daoming would never have imagined that today's TV series has developed to the point where the lead actor can finish all his scenes in less than a week. Such a magical thing is actually happening in our industry now. The director felt aggrieved: he had no way to control the leading actor; the producer felt aggrieved: the budget was limited, so he could only do it in this way; in the later period, he felt aggrieved: the money and time given was only so little, and it was impossible to do it well; the TV station felt even more aggrieved: We didn't expect them to make the finished product like this; the fans of the leading actor were even more aggrieved: Do you know how hard my idol worked? In order to shoot this scene, he got injured, he didn't go home, he got sick, he missed his partner's birthday... It

seems that the whole world is right and has a reason. So, maybe the audience watching the TV series is wrong. The mistake is that we shouldn't watch TV dramas so seriously. We shouldn't feel that domestic film and television drama producers have the intention to catch up with their foreign counterparts when "Sherlock","Game of Thrones" and "Homeland Security" have been filmed abroad. Maybe we really think too much. Use Lin Youjia's song "Bad and Worse" to describe how awkward and inappropriate it seems to be to make a "good" drama in this era when domestic TV dramas compete against bad and worse.
