It could be seen that the old mansion was very careful when planning the parts that could be filmed.
They tried to ensure that the production team had enough content to shoot, but it would not reveal too many details of the old mansion.
However, it was inevitable that some colleagues would still complain in the group.
“If we had known this would happen, couldn’t we have gone directly to Jiang Xun’s house or Madam Qin’s house to shoot? If it really didn’t work out, we could rent a house for them to film in.
Kejia said, “It’s already a great help for us to be able to come to the old mansion for the shoot. Just being able to shoot a corner of the old residence is not something that the program next door could compare to. This is to increase our popularity and traffic.”
She continued, “Otherwise, they can rent a house outside for us to film at. However, the netizens are not fools. How can they not tell that the house is rented? Our program is promoting the daily lives of mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law. Isn’t daily life all about seeking reality? We want the audience to see that even for celebrities and wealthy families, their daily lives are trivial and real. They also do some daily chores in the mansion. They also read books and novels, watch movies and dramas, water the plants, and go online. They share some similarities with everyone else at home.”
“What’s the point of renting a house outside to film? It’ll be like acting,” Kejia said.
“It’s precisely because of this that they didn’t find another house outside to film. Moreover, does the Qin family lack real estate? They don’t even need to be afraid. They can just find a house that they haven’t lived in for a long time and let us film there. However, how could that be as real as filming in the real home?”
Kejia said, “However, I really didn’t expect that they would ask us to shoot at the old mansion. It’s also a pleasant surprise. If we didn’t have this chance, I’m afraid we, including the audience, would never know what the Qin family’s old mansion looks like in our lifetime. With interior shots of the old mansion, are you still worried that the neighboring show can surpass us?”
“Could the Gu family’s mansion be more attractive than the Qin family’s old mansion?” Kejia asked.
Everyone agreed.
Even if there were some restrictions, it was also to not show the entire layout of the old mansion.
Actually, the cameras just needed to focus on the people, and avoid shooting distant views.
A little bit of the room’s background wouldn’t make much difference.
The old mansion should have taken this into consideration as well. The filming location chosen for the production team was very clever.
If they could capture the interior of the old mansion, there was no need to capture anything else.
Even if Jiang Xun and Hanbi sat there motionless for an entire day without talking to each other, the audience would probably love it.
Just the gimmick of filming the entire season in the Qin family’s old residence was enough to instantly kill the copycat show next door.
The neighbor show still wanted to mess with Feng Videos and snipe their new show?
The production team could not help but sneer in their hearts.
Their show this season was probably going to explode!
The neighbor had no idea what kind of big move they were brewing!
Thank you, Qin Family, thank you, Jiang Nun!
After hearing Kejia’s words, the production team once again felt that it was going to work.
The group arrived at the main hall and greeted Hanbi and the two elders nervously.
Then, they installed the equipment strictly according to the location marked on the diagram. They were also careful not to touch the various furnishings of the old mansion.
Forgive them for not being able to tell the value of these things.
But thinking about it, there must not be anything cheap in the old mansion.
They were afraid that even if they took out all the money they had earned in their lifetime, it would not be enough to compensate, so everyone was especially careful.
Kejia quietly pulled Jiang Xun and asked, “Teacher Jiang, why did you think of coming to the old mansion to film? Of course, I’m very happy. To be able to shoot in the old mansion, to be honest, this gimmick is too big. Just this alone will be enough to beat the program next door.”
Jiang Xun smiled and explained, “It’s the old madam. She’s actually quite curious about the filming of variety shows, so she asked us to come over and film. It will be fun for her to watch from the side.”
“Ah, I remember that the old madam likes to appear on camera,” Kejia said softly. “I remember that the old madam appeared several times during your livestreams.”
“The old madam mainly likes to interact with netizens,”Jiang Xun explained.
“Then when we officially start shooting, if we accidentally shoot the two elders in the scenes, do we need to edit them out later?” Kejia asked Jiang Xun.
“No need,” Jiang Xun said. “I’ve already asked the two elders about this. As long as the camera doesn’t deliberately capture them, if the two elders accidentally enter the shot for a few seconds while walking, or if their voices are transmitted into the camera even though they are outside the camera, there’s no need to cut it out in such situations.”
With Jiang Xun’s words, Kejia had a rough idea.
The two elders would not deliberately appear in front of the camera to be filmed.
At most, they might be caught by the camera when they were walking around.
Even if they were in frame, it’s just a fleeting scene. They will only appear very briefly. Perhaps only the careful netizens would be able to notice that someone had walked past in the background.
Therefore, it was impossible for the two elders to appear in front of the camera for a long time.
If there was, it meant that the production team did it on purpose.
In that case, the production team had to be careful.
Kejia understood what Jiang Xun meant and secretly broke out in a cold sweat.
Their production team would never dare to do such a thing.
“I understand,” Kejia nodded.
Jiang Xun smiled and didn’t say anything else.
However, there were many smart people in Feng Videos. They knew what to do and wouldn’t try to be clever.
Xingke Station had never been able to do this.
Thus, Kejia went to check on the progress of the installation and adjustment of the equipment. She also explained to her colleagues the possibility of the two elders entering the frame and how to deal with it..
