Qin Jue was convinced: "It makes sense."
The two of them discussed for a while, and when Cong Ning'an came with his assistant, they returned to the second rehearsal room together.
"Come and see this."
Qin Jue set up the portable table, turned the computer over to show them, and started playing the results of the morning's rehearsal from the beginning.
"Two young actors, in regular clothes and pajamas." Cong Ning'an began to take notes, "King and Queen, in regular clothes."
When all members of Qin Juebao came on stage, Cong Ningan's eyes darkened.
"..." He sighed and began to count the heads of men and women.
Qin Jue continued to play.
"Stop. Do you need a set here? This is the group dance." Qiao Yuansu said.
"I think it can be solved with lighting." Qin Jue recalled the original work, "This is to reveal the background story, and then a symbolic projection of the mountains to express 'this is a kingdom' will be enough. The prop utilization rate is too low."
"Okay, continue." Qiao Yuansu nodded.
Qin Jue stopped at the scene where two young actors performed "Secretly playing in the snow, Elsa accidentally hit Anna".
"We haven't decided how to deal with this place yet. At present, after the chorus, the adults leave the stage, and the two little princesses come over with prop boxes. Anna will take out simple skates from the prop box and put them on, and Elsa's prop box will contain snow Bao’s little puppet, and then act it out with special effects.”
Qin Jue frowned slightly, "Maybe because the special effects haven't been added yet, I thought it was almost boring."
"It's too empty." Qiao Yuansu said, "The venue is big but the actors are small, especially after the group dance."
"There is another way." Qin Jue shared the setting of the original musical. "Place a bed on each side, with a European-style top. Instead of sneaking into the hall to play in the snow, play in the bedroom. Anna was hit You can just fall on the bed after delivery.”
The reason why such an idea was not used at the beginning is because in the original work, the two beds were set up for lighting effects, and the blue group has holographic projection from Qinyi Technology, which is obviously superior to the "lighting plus sound effects" configuration. , Qin Jue hopes to find a suitable interpretation mode for them.
Qiao Yuansu fell into deep thought.
"A bed would work, but it was originally conceived as something for adult Anna to use when she gets up on coronation day...I have an idea."
He opened his mouth and pulled out the design drawing of the palace gate as he spoke. This was a setting that had been decided a long time ago and had already appeared when little Anna knocked on the door and asked, "Do you want to build a snowman?"
"Lighting can hit the 'frames' outside the proscenium stage, turning them into palace columns and creating a spatial expansion."
Qiao Yuansu gestured, "Then lower the props, chandeliers, wall paintings, other decorations, etc. on the stage ceiling. They don't need to be eye-catching, just create a hall environment."
Qin Jue recalled briefly and nodded: "Okay."
Li Hong introduced the stage ceiling when she visited it. It has three standard rails in the front, middle and rear, which are used to lift the big curtain (the curtain that symbolizes the beginning and end of the play), the second curtain and the third curtain (used for the stage). The curtain in the middle and deepest part of the stage that divides the performance area). This kind of lifting mechanism can completely add some props within the safe weight range.
"Is the workload heavy?" Qin Jue asked.
Qiao Yuansu was very calm: "Qin Yi Technology 3D printing."
It was just a drawing, he was not afraid.
Qin Jue: "..."
As expected of a veteran, he is so skillful in squeezing out benefits.
"And these props will be used later in the coronation ceremony and so on. As long as some of the decorations are removed, it can be changed into another hall."
Qiao Yuansu is obviously not just talking about it, "The architecture and decoration style in a palace are naturally systematic, and it is not unusual for them to be consistent in some aspects - such as using the same chandelier - so it can be recycled and the price/performance ratio is higher. "
Qin Jue nodded.
If this had been a fully prepared musical, they could have been extravagant and made all the props original and unique and placed there just to be used once. But now that time is tight, it doesn’t matter if we repeat things, and it also avoids confusion among the staff due to too many things. Qiao Yuansu’s proposal is considered economical.
"Then the ground, I thought prop snow would be a good idea."
Qiao Yuansu continued, "When Qinyi Technology is doing snowfall special effects, we can mix real and fake into it, so that little Anna can fall on the snowdrift while skating and not be injured."
"Not bad." Qin Jue raised his eyelids, "The effect will be better if the props are added with a proper blower. I'm thinking about how to clean up the scene."
"When cleaning, just use a big mop with no mop and only one horizontal bar and push it back and forth. It only takes ten seconds to run faster." Qiao Yuansu is very experienced in this.
Qin Jue thought about the script: "The plot after this is that the king and the queen take the two children to go to the goblins for help. Maybe we can arrange a dark chorus to delay the time... Wait, we are in a semi-open-air theater, and the light from outside is through. If you come over here, you will be in trouble, and it will take longer to lower the second curtain, so it won’t work.”
"Hiss, yes." Qiao Yuansu frowned, this was his negligence.
"Let's rely on the stage rotating mechanism." Qin Jue made a few sketches, "Pay attention to the snowfall point of the props. When the goblin chorus enters, it will move to the back and lower the three curtains at the same time. This will not only block the staff from packing up the props, but also It’s convenient for projecting the goblin forest.”
"OK." Qiao Yuansu nodded, turned to Cong Ning'an and said, "Lao Cong, tell me the height data of little Anna when you arrive."
"OK."
The three of them watched and discussed. After a while, Qiao Yuansu hurriedly left holding his tablet and draft book, while Cong Ning'an and his assistants stayed.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the actors returned to the rehearsal room one after another. Cong Ning'an quickly took everyone's measurements and then left the room to do his own work.
Qin's estimate of absolute progress was very accurate. The efficiency of the actors is on the one hand, and the fact that they don't have much time to deliberate on modifications in detail is also on the other hand. In general, this afternoon we successfully pushed the progress to ten minutes. From tomorrow on, it will be Lin Rou and Su Su's turn to work hard.
At six o'clock in the evening, everyone dispersed.
The two young actors were still full of energy, especially the little girl who played Anna. She happily sang "Do You Want to Build a Snowman" before leaving. Qin Jue lamented the popularity of the song and was also glad that the two The children's English proficiency is very good, and they actually mastered the bilingual version in one afternoon. After that, they only need to rehearse and consolidate it over and over again.
"Oh!"
Su Su, who was jumping and singing, broke a note and turned around in circles in frustration.
"Take time to go to the gym with Shuangshuang." Qin Jue said, "If your core strength is unstable, you will be more likely to be out of breath when singing and dancing."
"Huh, okay!" Su Su clenched her fist hard, "I don't believe it...!"
"Don't put too much pressure on her." Lin Rou rubbed her.
A short-term quick success is too forced and is not good for career longevity. They have already discussed that they would appropriately increase the volume of Susu Mike's voice when the show starts. This kind of treatment is not uncommon and will not be criticized.
"Okay -" Su Su hugged Lin Rou and said, "Hey, sister↓sister↑~"
Lin Rou was amused by her cooing little voice.
Qin Jue practiced singing and memorizing lines with them in the rehearsal room, and went out to pick up a few express deliveries on the way - this is the advantage of large-volume orders. The surrounding factories will be more diligent for subsequent cooperation, and a batch of keys have arrived today. Attach cell phone chains and other gadgets.
After talking to Li Hong about sales and sharing, Fang Youwen sent another message. Qin Jue made an appointment with him to rush there at seven o'clock tomorrow night.
As soon as the two of them finished talking, the contact from Qin Yi Technology arrived. It was the people responsible for the stage renovation. The timing was very precise, so that neither Qin Jue nor them had to wait.
Although the Lynn Theater is not as famous as the other three medium and large theaters, due to its special structure, there is also a group of regular guests who like to drink wine and listen to the band playing outdoors. The latest performance will last until ten o'clock in the evening.
After these customers had dispersed, Qin Jue and Li Hong led the newly arrived Qin Ke team into the inner stage.
"Here, here, and there."
Qin Jue unfolded the structural design drawing, "The inner, middle and outer three-layer rotating structure, and..."
Qin Yi Technology followed its consistent tradition of external cooperation and sent an extra "translator" to communicate with Qin Jue, and then use the more accurate and efficient "Qin Ke language" to speak to the people on the executive team.
"Simple."
The team leader of the executive team looked relaxed after listening.
He waved his hand back in a nonchalant manner, made a stern expression on his face, and uttered two words:
"Let's do it."
Sitting next to him, Qin Jue, who called the supervisor but was actually lazy: "..."
She gave her a kind look like an old father looking at his son.
