What's the difference between making a TV series and making a movie?

This problem is very complicated. The two industries are very different.

The first is the script. After the script is completed, the film usually draws a shot script, which is equivalent to drawing a movie. Generally, regular crews are equipped with painters who specialize in drawing corner scripts. Like Hitchcock, he said that his film was finished when he finished the script, and the photographer took pictures according to the pictures he drew, so he basically didn't have to look at the camera on the set. Tsui Hark of Hong Kong also likes to draw plays. Generally, what he takes is very similar to what he draws. There are too many shots in the TV series to draw a script, so we divide the scenes, and then the director and executive director decide what shots to shoot on the spot.

Then there is the difference between cameras. Movies usually use a film machine, which is very troublesome. Of course, there are some digital cameras now. As for TV series, the traditional camera is used and the storage method is cassette.

Tv dramas are usually shot in film and television bases, with ready-made scenes. The most is to build a wooden wall. A scene should be used back and forth and shot from different angles to save money. Movies are more expensive because they have to travel long distances. Especially when shooting some blockbusters, we often go to great lengths to produce a gorgeous effect. Zhang Yimou rented hundreds of acres of land to grow flowers in Kazakhstan when he filmed House of Flying Daggers. But when SARS broke out, he couldn't get out. When he can come out, the flowers have withered. Finally, he had to buy some flowers from the local people. There is also Cedek Balai in Taiwan Province Province, with an investment of NT$ 700 million, equivalent to RMB 654.38+0.5 billion.

As for the performance of actors, there are also differences. Tv dramas dare not jump too much, and many plots have to be explained, which makes them more dependent on the actors, so the actors have a hard time performing. Moreover, the work of TV series is basically the executive director, who is responsible for guiding the actors on the scene, and it is almost acceptable. And movies, different movies, according to the needs of different directors, actors can have different performances, and movies can make many innovations when editing. And in a big play, the director must come out and tell the actors. Some directors have a big temper and shoot the same person's play for several days in a row. I have been filming until I am satisfied.

Generally speaking, TV plays can only flow to TV stations after they are finished. Television stations pay according to stars and themes. How much is an episode? It is easier for TV stations to meet people they know, so the first round of sales depends on popularity and stars. The second round depends on the audience.

Needless to say, movies are basically in theaters, relying on box office.
