I am practicing in Tokyo

Chapter 203 Ultramarine MV
"Good morning, Lily-chan."

"Good morning, Xiangjiang."

A high school in Okinawa, although it is not the time to go to school, the students of the second and third classes of senior high school still come to take tutoring. After the spring break, it will be the first semester of their senior high school. month of season graduation.

In order to advance to higher education, the entire second year of high school students have to voluntarily participate in vacation tutoring, which is still rare in public high schools. The students in their class are the most uniform, and there is almost no resistance.

Shinmi Yuri was dragged to a corner by her classmate, Nagai Ka, and said furtively.

"I'll tell you one thing, a band is coming to the school to shoot a new MV today, and we can all appear in it."

band?Is it the kind of mania that just yells and smashes guitars on stage for vandalism?I'm not interested, except Qingyin.

Xinmei Lily only listens to some light music, and recently bought two singles from a light music group. The release time of singles in remote Okinawa is a week or two later than that on the island. The troubles here are not only the US Air Force base, which does not distinguish between day and night. Aircraft noise, and the outdated sense of being out of touch with the mainstream society, everything is half a beat behind, like the old men and women in the commercial street, they will not change for a long time, and they will embrace the trend.

She planned to work hard to get into the Imperial University and then leave here. The little Okinawa can no longer accommodate the heart of freedom.

The singles of the light music band have recently become very popular among middle and high school students in the island country, and they are also the main people who buy them. Like those fashionable girl high school students on this island, Xinmi Lily also likes the youthful atmosphere, even the background image of the homepage of the folding mobile phone , were replaced by a group photo of the light music team's first single, Ultramarine, and the four of them stood under the old wall.

Entering the school classroom with the noisy crowd, sat down and handed in yesterday's homework, stepped into the classroom after serving as a teacher, and announced a somewhat sudden news.

"Well, a band named Qingyin has discussed with the school. They want to shoot a MV in our school. If you are interested, you can participate. Afterwards, they will give away a single CD signed by them."

The older teacher was just passing on a routine. The light music team borrowed the roof of their school the day before yesterday. This time, they just wanted to find some free group performances, right?
"I attended!"

After hearing the word Qingyin, Xinmei Baimei stood up suddenly, raised her right hand high, and shouted without hesitation.

"Me too!"

"Really, is that the high school student band on YouTube?"

"Actually, I saw someone filming on the rooftop the day before yesterday, and even took pictures."

"I'm going too. The light music group has not signed their single CD to others. This is the first time!"

There was a lot of chatter in the classroom, and just like that, almost all the sophomore students signed up for the light music team. After being screened by appearance and posture, only less than 20 people were recruited. Xinmei Lily was selected because of the threshold. As for The best friend, Nagai Xiang, was excluded due to a little apology due to her appearance.

I'm sorry, I'll give you one of the two singles I got.

Xinmei Lily made promises to her frustrated best friend with her eyes, and nearly [-] students in the second year of high school picked out [-], all of whom were around the upper middle in appearance and figure.

The teacher took them to the school gate. At this time, the four members of the light music team and the staff of the MV shooting team arrived at the school on time.

Fujii put on the horse head holster in advance, and these students couldn't recognize his true face, but Shigure was more popular, and most of the eyes of men and women focused on her.

"Supervisor Yongjian, the shooting of Ultramarine's MV is according to my idea, is it really okay?"

When we first met in the morning, Fujii explained some of his thoughts to the MV supervisor Nagami Zonghei. The original song of Ultramarine was originally a commercial song for chocolate. After it became popular, it used stop-motion animation to produce a low-cost episode with a weird style of painting. MV, and in a large assembly company like Aihui, there is a dedicated MV supervisor such as Nagai Zonghei, and the MV shooting is also a formulaic routine without much effort.

However, thanks to the tuna feast last night, Supervisor Yongjian also got closer to him, and even took the initiative to mention what ideas he had, and he could help realize them as much as possible.

So Fujii spoke out some of his shooting ideas, which was affirmed by Yongjian Supervisor.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a MV. When I was shooting swords and halberds in the early years, I didn't always follow the script. It's a pity that swords and halberds have fallen. Otherwise, with Fujii-kun's skills and looks, you will definitely be popular. ,cough."

Director Yongjian hadn’t woken up from the wine last night, and he doubled up with a flagon early in the morning. He was also popular for a while, but since the death of the film master Akira Kurosawa, the sword and halberd films of the island country have accelerated their decline. Supervising, now I can only make a living by filming some shoddy assembly-line MVs.

"TMD, if the style wasn't really suitable, I'd like to make a short video of swords and halberds as an MV for you guys. This generation of popular idol groups with young faces and girl groups selling young people, I really want to burn it clean."

After drinking too much, Director Yongjian couldn't control his mouth again. After he was frustrated with the beard of Hideaki Anno's style, he only slept for a few hours a day without getting drunk, and the rest of the time was nothing but drunk and lightly drunk That's all.

Hehe, if you make a sword-and-halberd style MV, the sales of the CD will be cut in half, right?
Fujii tree twitched the corners of his mouth, taking out things from the environment, no matter how good the quality is, they will not be popular, people always like the new and dislike the old.

The one single MV filmed the day before yesterday used an extremely old-fashioned shooting method, and only the four members of the light music team appeared on the scene. This time, he planned to use some elements of the original one MV for the Ultramarine MV. is also more pleasing to the eye.

In the first act, Shi Yu appeared alone, walking in the empty alleyway with the singing at the beginning.

She was wearing the sailor uniform of this high school in Okinawa, and she walked briskly. At the corner of the alleyway behind her, she followed the female high school students in the same uniform one after another.

The crowd was mixed with members of the light music team. They walked to the crossroads, opened their formations, and danced a simple dance. Although they were not professional, they were extraordinarily devoted.

When it was time for the chorus, the band members held instruments and sang together with this group of youthful high school students.

"Hidden without knowing it, let the true voice echo, come on."

The camera gradually moves up, looking down at the boys and girls, and the streets and buildings extending in the distance gradually become smaller.

"Even if you pretend not to see it, it's there, at least it's there."

"Even if you pretend not to see it, it actually exists in your heart."

After the final vocal chorus, Director Yongjian made an OK gesture behind the monitor. I really can’t see that Fujii knows a little bit about shooting. The whole process was his idea, and he also hand-painted a lot of storyboards for Yongjian Supervision reference.
