Chapter 70 The Art of Deception

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket!Ask for a recommendation ticket!

The Birth of a Prefix movie's timeline is summer.In order to shoot the effect of summer, the actors need to dress very cool.

Off-season shooting is basically the norm for film shooting. The crew of "The Birth of a Word" is pretty good.

When Jiang Wen, the great god of later generations, filmed "Sunny Days", he was shooting summer scenes in winter.But neither the picture nor the actors felt a hint of winter.

The whole film has a strong summer style, with the impulse of juvenile male hormones.

For many scenes, Wu Xiaozu not only shoots against the season, but also needs to reverse black and white to shoot.During the day, shoot night scenes.

In the process of film shooting, the sensitivity of film and CCD sensors cannot actually be compared with the human eye.

Dim street lights, flickering candles, and the cold moon are actually the effects after lighting. Otherwise, the effect of the film camera lens will only be pitch black, and you can't see your fingers.

Even for daytime scenes, lighting sets are still needed.Because the natural light during the day changes at any time, and the direction, intensity and hardness may not meet the requirements.

The experience of day or night presented on the screen is not derived from different light intensities, but is achieved through different light ratios, color temperatures, ratios of black and white gray areas, that is, tone and color saturation.

The lighting engineer is expensive because it is both cumbersome and really hard work.Good gaffers are rarer than good videographers.Fortunately, Zou Lin, the lamp master, has a very high standard.

Therefore, watching a movie is really the director who is dreaming for you.Stories, characters, scenery, and even the day and night you think are correct may be revealed through technical means.

Cinema is an art of deception.This is very correct.

Therefore, Wu Xiaozu felt that he was a bastard and was excusable.

If a director can't lie and is not scumbag, then he must be a bad film director, or he is on the way to a bad film director.

In order to ensure the quality of his works, Wu Xiaozu was willing to be kindly called out: bastard!

The director won't lie, what's the difference with the salted fish?
……

The next day, filming the scene.

Wu Zhenyu and Liu Qingyun accidentally killed "Da Fei", and they could only choose to turn his head and build it in the wall.Here, Wu Xiaozu communicated with Huang Yuetai for a long time, and finally chose a long shot to express everyone's mood.

"OK!"

Wu Xiaozu nodded at Huang Yuetai, saying that there was no problem with the camera, and went to the next scene.

The radio engineer held the radio microphone with the anti-noise cover at a reasonable position of half a meter to one meter above the actor's head.Not only can not enter the mirror, but also can accurately radio.

The lighting assistant is wearing a shading cloth and a shading panel. In order to create a dark and cold light and shadow effect, a lot of blue cold lights will inevitably be added.

Without the visor, the movie could be declared a "ghost movie".Of course, the actors themselves also need lighting engineers to light, otherwise the effect presented in the lens will be ugly.

When filming, techniques such as fill light and dimming can highlight the clear and soft facial features of the actors.It is definitely a live version of Meitu Xiuxiu by covering skin imperfections with bright light and even retouching.

The beauty of the actress's skin that can be broken by blowing the skin is actually the credit of the lighting engineer.Therefore, the lighting group has always been the busiest department of the crew.

If a female star really wants to be beautiful, she must say hello to the lighting engineer.The older you get, the more you pay attention...

If there really is an actress who wants to sleep in a normal big crew.

Then the scientific sequence suggested for her is: producer-supervisor (or producer)-director-cameragrapher-lighting engineer-executive director-assistant director... The last is the order of the actor of the opposite play.

That's right, the tea and the driver are also in front of the actor.Therefore, if both in-laws are actors, male actors are more likely to have more "brothers".

Since a certain Yueming knew that he had many brothers-in-law, he went from the idol school to the acting school of no return.

Good!

After not wearing a hat, the guy has a show.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.This saying is quite popular in the entertainment industry, and it means: if you want to bring the hat given to you by the old king next door, you must hold it up!

……

At night, Wu Xiaozu hid in his room by himself, altering the script and shooting plan.Jiang Zhiqiang just called to inform Wanwan that the arrangements had been made, and he was only waiting for him to go to Taiwan to shoot.

This drama gave Wu Xiaozu a feeling of exhaustion.

Unlike "Rainy Night Butcher", which is a one-man show by Liang Jiahui, the characters promote the development of the plot.

The characters, scenes, and props of "The Birth of a Prefix", even if it is a beam of light, all serve the rhythm and story of the whole play.

In other words, it will not be the actors but the director who will shine in this play.The performance of the actors is not of decisive importance to the whole play.What this play tests is the director's use of the lens, lighting and the completion of the story, all of which are the most basic basic skills of a director.

Actors only need to cooperate with the development of the plot step by step.As a result, Wu Xiaozu caused a great sense of exhaustion.

He is not a god, past life theory is greater than practice.

This consumption of mind and spirit made him lose weight day by day.In fact, this is called "newcomer director syndrome" in the director's line.

There is a term in the basketball world that is particularly accurate to describe this situation - the rookie wall!In other words, Director Wu hit a wall!
A director will always make a dazzling summary of his directing skills in the second and third plays.This is caused by the changing laws of things.

Wu Xiaozu did not open the perspective of God, and naturally he could not avoid such a bad habit.

This kind of dazzle is rare in the director's career.Usually only appears in the early works of many directors.

In fact, Wu Xiaozu should be glad that his second play chose a "Birth of a Prefix" that gave him enough room to play.He can arbitrarily smear his own style on this work.

I'm also glad that Jiang Zhiqiang has enough confidence in him and didn't send a producer or producer to restrict him.

A director always has a few unintentional explorations.This kind of unintentional exploration is often rough, but very sharp.At the same time, it will also sharpen the sharpness of Wu Xiaozu.

……

On the third day of the filming of "The Birth of a Prefix", the crew was basically on the right track, the staff cooperated tacitly, and the actors also entered the state.

Wu Xiaozu simply chose a group scene of "Massage Parlor" to shoot.

The light was very dim, Wu Zhenyu stretched his neck to look at Liu Qingyun, but Liu Qingyun raised his arm with a stern face and put his head back.

Don't look, be shy.

Standing in front of the monitor, Wu Xiaozu had a serious look on his face.

"Director, are you filming? It's almost nine o'clock..."

Uncle Li looked at Wu Xiaozu knowingly, with a sane face, "The actors and staff are ready to continue."

"cough!"

Wu Xiaozu glanced at him and thought, I don't know if the actors are ready?Not ready can I hesitate?That's why he hesitated!
"Clearance?"

Uncle Li tried to suggest, "I can let the on-site staff go out temporarily and leave only the staff."

Wu Xiaozu glanced at the eager cast members around him, then turned to look at the actor in front of him, and said righteously, "Forget it, the actor has no special requirements, and the shooting is done as normal."

"howl--"

The on-site staff took time to...

— listless, corpses everywhere, and bursts of cries, all with a dark despair.

The seven pairs of eyes who were waiting to be filmed also turned their heads and glanced at Wu Xiaozu resentfully. Director, you didn't ask us if we needed to clear the scene...
