Three Hundred and Twenty-Five Talk Debut

This is not the first time Renly has entered the studio, but it is the first time he has recorded a TV show in the studio, and it is also the first time he has appeared on a talk show, which is completely different from the filming of "Pacific War"; Li is also not sure whether this is the same thing as the confrontation with reporters. Everything is brand new.

However, the enthusiastic cheers just now were obviously a good start.

After entering the studio, the first thing that catches the eye is a semi-open talk show background board, the second half is a stepped auditorium, the first half is a fan-shaped stage, the left side is where the live band is located, in the middle A set of dark gray sofas and two green potted plants are placed, followed by the entire screen wall.

Spacious, but a little simple, even a little shabby.

However, what a talk show needs is not a gorgeous stage set, but a host with a lot of tongues and guests who are willing to cooperate.

At this time, the lights on the scene have not been turned on, but the four lights at the connection between the stage and the auditorium are turned on. It can be seen that the staff are busy and busy, and the busyness revealed in the silence is in an orderly manner.

Go straight ahead along the passage on the left, and after going around the entire background board, you can see another scene, a "D"-shaped corridor appears in front of you, and he follows the "one" of "D". The word came over and is now standing at a fork in the road.

The longitudinal passage in the second half of the "one" character in front of you is not long. You can see that there are about four or five room doors, and at the end is the sign of the bathroom; The entrance is connected to the side door of the stage, where there are two doors, one is for the band to come in and out, the other is for the guests to come out, and there are five or six office doors lined up in the depth of the passage.

Under the guidance of the staff, Renly turned to the right, walked down, and stopped at the door of a room. A white card was placed on the name column next to the door, with a letter, "Renly-Hall, actor".

Renly couldn't help but slightly raised his eyebrows, so, is this his exclusive dressing room? Newbies are treated like this!

However, if you think about it carefully, among the newcomers, there are very few people who can appear on the talk show. Even if his rise in the past six months can be said to be a triple jump, he will wait until the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony ends. He just got the chance to act, didn't he?

So, it's no surprise that it's treated like that.

In the United States, talk shows are one of the most classic types of TV shows.

Since the talk show landed in the United States in 1954,

It seems to have become the most important part of American TV culture and entertainment culture. Almost every TV station has a famous talk show signboard that has been passed down for more than 30 years.

Such as NBC's "Tonight Show", such as CBS's "Late Night Show", and the "Daily Show" that has risen strongly in the past fifteen years, produced by American cable TV Comedy Central.

A talk show in the United States is a very special program form, which can be basically divided into several parts. The host will speak to the camera and the audience, live music performances, interviews with guests, and there are also a small number of programs that will talk to the audience. interact.

But the most special thing about talk shows is that their topics are often combined with current trends, pointing to current affairs, criticizing and ridiculing politics and politicians, which is more traditional. This makes the talk show not only a part of society, but also a part of life.

According to the survey, during the 2008 election, nearly half of young Americans between the ages of 18 and 29 obtained election-related political information from political talk shows; more than a quarter of adults voted The influence of talk shows. Among them, the most famous late-night talk show in the United States, "The Daily Show of Jon Situ", was rated as the most trusted news source by the American people, surpassing traditional authoritative media such as "The New York Times" and "The Wall Street Journal".

This set of data shows the special status of talk shows. In the list of the 100 greatest TV shows selected by "Rolling Stone" magazine, two seats in the top ten belong to talk shows, and one is for "Weekly" "Six Night Live (SNL)" and "Jong Situ Daily Show".

Generally speaking, American talk shows are divided into daytime talk shows, evening talk shows and network talk shows.

Leaving aside the internet talk shows in the age of personal news sources, daytime talk shows are broadcast on weekday mornings, so the main audience is the elderly, women, and students, and topics are also focused on health, emotions, and family life. Chicken soup for the soul is even more indispensable, and the overall style is relatively mild. "The Oprah Show" and "The Ellen Show" are among the best and most representative.

Most of the evening talk shows are concentrated in the late night period, and the audience is the main middle class and office workers. Thanks to the particularity of the period, the style is mainly sharp, ridiculing, bold, direct and humorous, and the political topic is always The core of the core, many times there are no taboos.

In the past half century, countless outgoing presidents, presidential candidates and politicians have appeared on talk shows, and Barack Obama has been nicknamed the "talk show president". In 2009, he became the first person to visit a late night talk show. Show of the incumbent president.

Different from the mature and rational image that Asian leaders are committed to maintaining, the American people are more concerned about the demeanor and humor of politicians. Therefore, politicians have chosen the platform of talk shows in order to vote for voters. During the 2000 general election, Gore's campaign team personally admitted to the media that they spent time every day studying the content of several important talk shows, analyzing the grooves, dark spots and hot spots, and then making corresponding decisions on their own policies and plans. The corresponding adjustment shows its influence.

It is no exaggeration to say that talk shows are an integral part of understanding American culture.

It is precisely because of this that the talk show has also become a very important part of the Hollywood publicity process.

Almost every movie and every album's promotion schedule will inevitably have a talk show schedule. Considering that a talk show is a show that deals with lip-smacking, it is not only necessary to talk and laugh, but also to have the ability to self-deprecating, ridicule, joke, and most importantly, be able to joke.

Not just any newcomer can be on a talk show, and even strictly speaking, not just anyone can be on a talk show. Otherwise, if the effect of the program fails to meet expectations, the publicity of the work will have a negative effect.

Andy didn't expect that Renly's first talk show opportunity came so quickly, and it was also "The Ellen Show" - one of the current daytime talk show trump cards. Of course, appearing in a talk show is just a stepping stone. The effect of the show and the response of the audience are beyond the control of the agent. But no doubt, it was another step forward in Renly's career.

Nathan pushed open the door of the dressing room, and just as Renly was about to follow, he suddenly remembered something, "Who is the musical guest today?"

Each talk show will invite two guests, one is a singer and the other is an actor; or to be more precise, a musical guest and a talking guest. Only in rare exceptional cases are both the musical guest and the talking guest performed by the same person.

"Katy-Perry," the staff member said with a smile. "She'll be performing 'Firework' today."

"Oh, I'll drop by and say hi later." Renly nodded and returned a smile. As a courtesy, he'd better drop by and say hello, as well as Ellen DeGeneres.

After entering the dressing room, Renly got busy.

As an up-and-coming rookie, Nathan was the only assistant on Renly's team. When recording the show, all the chores had to be taken care of by himself. For those top stars, the treatment is completely different.

The industry's most keen to play big names and never care about the outside world's gossip is Mariah-Carey.

Her personal team can have up to 24 people, including agents, managers, assistants, publicists, bodyguards, hair stylists, makeup artists, stylists, nutritionists, fitness trainers, personal doctors, etc., and even There is also a babysitter for her pets.

This is just a line-up for an outing to record a show.

Therefore, ordinary audiences are always curious, why are those artists who live under the limelight making so much money, why are they still going bankrupt? That's why, the income is huge and the spending is even more exaggerated.

Aside from Maria, the daily equipment of first-line artists is also between six and eight. This is also the reason why every artist should be equipped with a special separate dressing room - otherwise, it really can't be squeezed.

However, Renly doesn't have the deep pockets right now to hire a huge back-up team. If you record a program, you can either take care of yourself or rely on the program team.

Since today's "Ellen Show" was decided on an impromptu basis, Renly didn't have time to prepare the costumes at all, and no sponsors could help in the first place. Fortunately, Eaton-Dormer, who was far away in New York, was still remotely controlled, and urgently dispatched four sets of looks to be delivered to the door to provide choices, which avoided the trouble of temporary purchase by Renly.

Outside of costumes, The Ellen Show provided professional makeup artists and hair stylists to prepare for the show at Renly.

These teams are all regular members of the show team, doing makeup for live bands, ordinary audiences who are on camera, and amateur guests participating in the show. Their business skills are often not precise enough, and they mainly focus on basic skills. But for Renly, it was enough.

It took less than half an hour before and after changing clothes and finishing simple dressing, and Renly was ready to record the show. Then, Renly came to the door of the dressing room next door, next to a sign that read, "Katy Perry, Singer."

Renly thought it was funny, like Justin Timberlake said, wouldn't his nameplate say, "Singer, actor, comedy junkie"?

I don't know, is this one of the traditions of various talk shows, or is it the unique personality of "Ellen Show", or is it formulated by the guests themselves?

"Knock knock," Renly knocked on the door, then put his hands behind his back, waiting for a response.
