Chapter 423: There Are Migrant Workers Everywhere

The next day, Hu Fang came to the company, and this guy ran around and was very busy every day.

"Hey, there are more and more celebrity students studying performances now, and countless young people want to become famous overnight. But a few days ago, at the forum of the 26th International Television Festival, chatted with Wubai, directors who served as directors of "Psychological Crime", "Bad Man in the Painting of the World" and directors who supervised the "White Night Chase" and "The Legend of the World" and then found out how short the domestic production talents were."

Hu Fang said helplessly: "It's not just the later stages, but also the technical jobs of special effects, including directors, screenwriters, etc., seem to lack the ability and creative talents in the entire industry."

"According to Wubai's words, the professionalism of the crew is too low at present. Many of the staff members such as clothing, makeup, lighting, etc. have not even received professional training."

Chen Feng was not surprised that the shortage of professional talents in film and television was not a topic that only appeared this year. Several years ago, Feng Xiaogang seemed to point out that there were not enough talents in the film and television industry. Only four or five were from professional teams with 100 people?

"Many domestic crews, especially in most small crews, except for the people in charge of coaching, who are professional, whether in costumes, recording, lighting and other aspects, most of the on-site execution are non-professional."

"This industry is too hard. Compared with the talents studied in junior colleges, it is more cultivated by the traditional master-apprentice model."

"Even if the professional level of a senior director is not good, it is still a matter of education. Excellent domestic photographers are not in colleges and universities, and the lag in information leads to disconnection between theory and practice."

"Do you know how much is the registration comparison of the performance department this year in major institutions?"

“Beijing Film 174:1, Central Opera 229:1, Shanghai Opera 192:1”

Chen Feng curled his lips, which was more popular than Tsinghua and Peking University!

In the past decade, capital has poured in, and the rise of talent shows and the emphasis on traffic have also made more people cross the already low threshold. If they want to become actors, the already oversupply of actors has become more rampant.

Although the number of applicants for behind-the-scenes majors has begun to increase and local governments are gradually paying attention to the film and television industry, in the eyes of most people, such growth is still relatively slow. Given the current talent training system and industry environment, the road to industrialization of domestic film and television still has a long way to go.

After all, film and television is an industrial art, and it is impossible for an awesome director to realize it alone. First, we must complete the technology and then talk about creativity.

"Picking bugs in the plot, complaining about editing and jumping, BGM is not coordinated, acting is too awkward, or special effects and makeup are like 50 cents..."

"As knowledge sharing is escalating, people across the country seem to have become experts in the industry overnight?"

"The only one who doesn't make progress seems to be the creators?"

Hu Fang complained: "The director team, production team, and editing team are all professional, and the costumes and makeup are professional when it comes to design and production, but they are responsible for props, makeup and clothing on site. They usually graduate from vocational schools and enter society at a very young age."

"Especially for lighting experts, I rarely know professionals in recent years, especially in the field of film and television dramas."

"As soon as lighting engineers look for Henan, 70% of them are from Yanling County. Most of them have not received professional training, let alone professional studies, and directly follow the masters they know."

"Start step by step, as a little assistant who moves lights and wires, gradually become a professional lighting engineer, and if you are lucky, you can also move to photography and other positions."

"From a small assistant to a senior assistant to a lighting teacher, it is not only a transformation from physical labor to mental labor, but also an advancement from technology to art. But for many assistants, it is not only lies in ability, but also in opportunities."

"Many lighting assistants I know don't know much about this industry. For them, this is more of a job to live. And to be honest, there are indeed certain thresholds."

"In addition to their own educational level, they do not have many opportunities to learn, and it is difficult to meet a suitable master."

"It takes at least 3 to 5 years for lighting assistants who are not from professional backgrounds to be able to be lighters. This is based on the fact that they work hard enough and have a suitable master to teach them."

"If you are from a professional school or have studied a little in a professional school, it will be much easier even though it will take one or two years of growth."

"Whether it is lighting or clothing, the rewards and benefits of assistants are generally not high, so they are also nicknamed as migrant workers in film and television."

Chen Feng laughed in silence. Is it similar to financial migrant workers?

"The salary for junior college graduates will not be very high. Most of them are small crews with low requirements and budgets."

"Because the small crew has a limited budget, those who are more professional from a professional school are unwilling to go, which reflects the imbalance in supply and demand of talents and the non-beneficiency of competition."

"The little assistant in the lighting industry has 500 days and the unit has 16 hours of working hours. This is the standard of reward that a large number of lighting engineers won after collective protests the year before yesterday."

"There are no other insurances or benefits. Since they are all joining the team with the master, many of them do not sign contracts with the crew, but the master will directly pay the salary."

"Teachers in many foreign schools are front-line photographers, who can bring students newer and more timely knowledge. There are even practical classes that directly bring students to the Hollywood set, and are carried out by photographers in the industry."

“Even foreign institutions have career planners who tell students how to market and improve themselves.”

"On the one hand, domestic teachers are equivalent to working in school, which will affect their jobs. The salary for jobs is similar to that of a school's monthly salary in two days."

"Another reason is that the film discipline requires the cooperation of directors and various categories of photography art, and the overall strength is not good, or the school's faculty, alumni, and equipment resources are not good, so people cannot be retained at all."

Hu Fang took a sip of tea and continued: "I once chatted with Bi Gan. In 2018, he filmed "The Last Night on Earth" and stopped working because of the professionalism and coordination of the crew. The actors' contract expired but only one-quarter of them were filmed."

"Can be made into a work..."
