Hello, everybody! How are you? I am very excited today
because I just discovered the mermaid is in a movie.
Do you know which one? It has something to do with the sea.
Yes, that's right. She is in "The little mermaid" movie.
She is working as an actress
and she plays
and Ariel's friends. They're in some scenes together.
Hello. Hello, are you talking about me?
Yes, I'm working in the film industry now.
I study my script everyday to learn my lines.
And I met the film director. We are friends now.
We shoot in different places or locations.
Whoa! Congratulations, mermaid. That's amazing!
Oh! Thank you, darling, but I must tell you.
You need a lot of different people to make a film
or a movie. There are many different teams.
Oh, I see you're learning a lot about the world of films, mermaid.
Yes. Would you like me to tell you about all the different jobs?
Oh, I'd love to hear about that. Please, tell us mermaid.
Ok, listen. The actors and actresses
act out the lines in the screenplay.
The film director chooses the movie.
The screenwriters write the story.
And the special effects department create all the visual tricks
in the film.
And these stunt people make car crashes, falls
and explosions.
¡Guau!
Right. And I imagine that the hair stylist and make-up artist
create the look for the characters.
That's right! And the costume designers create the clothes
and accessories for the film.
It's amazing! How many people do you need to make a film?
But how you even start to make a film?
Thus you need a good screenplay,
a good story. Then the producer decides
how much money each department needs.
Then you can start the filming.
Hey, mermaid. What's your favourite part of filming a movie?
I love it when everyone is silence
and then the director says: "Cameras rolling!
Action!".
Then the magic starts!
We're in position and we start acting.
That's so cool. And what do you not like about shooting a movie?
Oh, well. I don't like how many hours of filming
it takes just to care one minute of film.
Oh, well. I guess you have to be patient
to make a really good movie.
Thank you for telling us about your experience, mermaid.
I hope everybody will like my movie!
I'm sure they will. Now, let's remember everything
we've learnt today.
So there are many different people who work together
to make a film. There are the directors,
the actors, the stunt people,
the screenwriters, the visual effects department
and there are hear and make-up artists and the costume designers.
Would you like to work in the movie?
See you next time everybody! Goodbye!
