Chapter 380: Exaggerated Style

For Zhou Mu, making movies is not a strange thing.

However, he made a magic change to "Super Body", and the original plot and shots were only used as references at most, and lost the greatest copy value.

However, after several collaborations, whether it is a scene note, drama, cameraman, executive director, martial arts instructor, etc., everyone is more familiar. At least there is a tacit understanding, knowing what shots Zhou Mu likes and what effects need to be presented.

The lighting engineer shines, the camera slowly sweeps over, and what is presented on the monitor is a clean and bright scene, with a faint and somewhat illusory effect.

This is Yu Nian's suggestion.

The virtual world does not need a realistic style.

What's more, when the heroine continues to evolve and almost becomes a "god", such a surreal thing must create an illusory atmosphere in advance. Through the subtlety of the lens, in the subconscious of the audience, moisturizing things silently generally instills similar concepts.

Unify the style, so as not to produce a sense of separation. The audience will not feel that the heroine's "super god" belongs to a sudden change in painting style.

So the first act......

It was Ye Zijin who returned from the campus.

Then the camera cuts, and the next scene is that she changed into casual clothes, dragged a big suitcase, and appeared in the "airport" lobby.

The simple two shots are basically not difficult, and they are naturally one time.

This is also the most common lottery in the industry. Smoothly, implying that the process of film shooting is smooth sailing, without the slightest obstacle.

There are extreme people, in order to please this color, and even directly shoot a few empty shots, in order to get this good meaning, they immediately seal the mirror and continue to shoot the next day.

This is within the realm of superstition and is not advisable.

Putting the cart before the horse, Zhou Mu naturally won't do it. After taking a simple shot, he started filming the chase scene.

This plot is not easy, and it can be called a precedent. The main tone of the movie is extended from this plot.

The showdown between the Awoken and the Matrix Guards.

The leader of the secret guard, Zhou Mu decided to let Gu Debai play it, and carried the blue pill, the first awakened person to appear, Zhou Mu found Ge Yun.

The movie has only two scenes in Ge Yun.

The first is a chase, and the second is in prison, where she is killed by the man in black, and guides the heroine to find the professor when she is dying.

Although there are not many scenes, the characters promote the development of the plot, which is quite important.

But no matter what, it can't hide the fact that this is a supporting role.

The invitation was passed to Ge Yun's company, and his agent, including the company's management, felt that Zhou Mu was not kind and wanted to push it away.

After all, Ge Yun is now the protagonist in some film and television dramas.

Now go to Zhou Mu's movie, but play a small supporting role.

Who is this looking down on?

However, Ge Yun finally came, and he thought of a way to get the best of both worlds, taking this scene without charging money, and the right to return favors and make a cameo.

In this regard, Zhou Mu could only say that he ...... The road is wide.

Ge Yun also felt that he had no loss.

After all, as we all know, Zhou Mu likes "internal digestion" the most when making movies, and the first choice for a suitable role is always the person he knows.

This point undoubtedly made many people criticize, and it seemed that Zhou Mu had no intention of changing.

The new movie is just that.

Whether it is the protagonist or the supporting role, all of them have been cooperated by Zhou Mu, and if he feels that the image of the other party fits the role, he will let the other party go.

What is famous, box office appeal or something.

Zhou Mu doesn't think about this.

In other words, his cooperation with Yu Nian and Cui Ji is also a well-known signboard in the audience, and his influence is not much worse than that of a superstar.

So Ge Yun is willing to hug his thighs again.

It's a small supporting role now, but it doesn't mean that it will still be a small supporting role in the future. Maybe the next time we work together, it's when I turn over and become the protagonist.

With such a belief, Ge Yun worked hard to express himself.

Zhou Mu will do whatever he says.

As soon as the scene was played, Ge Yun was desperate, squeezed out the layers of crowds in embarrassment, and then jumped directly from the staircase on the second floor under the outflanking of a group of black-clothed people.

Boom!

He fell on the mattress and shook his body.

Several people rushed up, carefully examined and asked, "How is it?"

"It's okay...... It's okay......"

Ge Yun stood up, shook his head, showed a smile, waved his arms, kicked his long legs, and everything was normal.

Then keep shooting......

The set is complete!

Broken chairs, and a floor that cracked into cobwebs.

This is Ge Yun's "masterpiece".

In the movie, the action that appears is naturally Ge Yun jumping down from the second floor, and the moment his feet hit the ground, the huge impact force smashed through the chair, and the hard tiles were torn apart.

This scene naturally made the passengers next to him dumbfounded and screamed.

Ye Zijin sat next to him, guarding the big suitcase, flipping through a book. just picked up a page, and Ge Yun just fell. The force of the impact created a gust of wind that blew her clothes and long hair.

Ye Zijin was confused, looking at Ge Yun, his little head was confused.

Several men in black rushed up.

Ge Yun moved, like a cheetah, very agile.

A kick, a bump.

Bang.

A man in black was kicked away.

It's really flying.

With a pull, the man in black flew into the air, falling with his teeth and claws, and fell down heavily. The other man in black was knocked into a nearby wall, and the whole person was embedded in the wall and posed in an exaggerated posture.

Yes, exaggeration.

This is the fighting style that Zhou Mu finally determined based on reason, and it took a lot of effort to convince others.

In the original "Super Body", there are not many fighting scenes.

The main thing is that there is still a battle of gunfire.

Even the fights in "The Matrix", due to their relatively early age and the fights understood by Western directors, are not exciting in Zhou Mu's eyes.

As for bullet time or something......

Belch.

Maybe at the time, it was amazing.

But I watched too much, and it was just like that, mediocre. Besides, in this world, he even got out of the gun fighting technique, what kind of bullet time is he doing?

So, not advisable.

Knowing the flaws of the original version, Zhou Mu naturally pondered how to modify it.

In the virtual world, the fights should be exaggerated, creating a sense of unreality, and it is not good to be realistic. This is the main tone that everyone has decided after discussion.

What kind of fight is an exaggeration?

Zhou Mu's first impression is naturally the classic representative of Zhou's comedy "Kung Fu". The kind of exaggerated, funny, comic-book-like fights made him unforgettable.

At first, others were skeptical.

I don't understand whether this style is good or not. But when Zhou Mu called Wu Xing over, he rehearsed a few small scenes, filmed them by the way, and sent them to be expedited for special effects.

The effect comes out as a film, and the effect does not need to be said.

Final word.

So now it's time to shoot.

Now it's a "chaos", and it's not the actors who are the busiest, but the prop masters.

Often at the end of a shot, Zhou Mu shouted, and the scene reporter hurriedly recorded everyone's position, as well as various details, and then the prop master went up.

Busy, set up.

It took several days to complete the plot of the first encounter at the airport.

It's a bit slow.

It is also expected, after all, it belongs to the run-in period.

......

in the corner.

Yu Nian came quietly, without alarming anyone.

He and Cui Ji drank cold watermelon juice, watched Zhou Mu coordinate a group performance, and spoke dryly.

After watching for a while, Cui Ji suddenly said, "Isn't it a lot of progress?"

"It's been a good experience. ”

Yu Nian said casually: "The last movie is proof of it." ”

"That's talent. ”

Cui Ji pouted, "I should let those critics come over and see this scene with their own eyes." What is false, what is deceiving the world and stealing fame, what is greedy for heaven...... It's really a sin that you want to add, and there are no words for it. ”

"You believe their nonsense. ”

Yu Nian said slowly: "Who do you think are the people who follow the trend and scold......? A group of people who are really influential and capable, which one will stand up and make accusations?

"If you are not blind, you can see it at a glance. The films he directed are completely different from the films I directed, in terms of lens language and narrative style. ”

Yu Nian was disdainful, "If you can't even tell the difference between this, you don't have the qualifications to comment at all." ”

"People are pretending to be blind. ”

Cui Ji mocked: "Black for black, selective blindness." ”

"Hmmm......"

Yu Nian suddenly said: "I received a rumor that some film and television companies are interested in contacting giants to encircle and suppress his film. ”

"Encirclement?" Cui Ji froze.

Sniping Zhou Mu, he is not surprised. Because before, there was a similar situation.

But sniping, basically, refers to one-on-one. A movie, for another movie, is deliberately arranged to be released on the same schedule and together.

The meaning of encirclement and suppression is different, which refers to the arrangement of several movies before and after a movie, dividing and eating away at the box office during this period of time.

Such an arrangement is very damaging, and it can be called hurtful to others. To put it bluntly, I don't expect my movie to hit the box office, so I want to drag you into the water and die together.

"Why?"

Cui Ji didn't understand what Zhou Mu had done that made some people have evil intentions.

In fact, it is not aimed at him, but at Qinghong culture. ”

Yu Nian said softly: "You may not have noticed, but in the eyes of some people, the volume of Qinghong culture is increasing year by year, which has threatened the interests of many film and television companies. ”

Especially after "Three Laughs", many people feel that the next step of Qinghong Culture should be to consider financing and listing. ”

"At that time, in order to make the data on the books look good, Qinghong Culture must further expand, grab projects and occupy market ......"

Yu Nian looked up at the sky, "In order to save yourself, of course, you have to strike first." ”

“...... Don't they think it's ridiculous?"

Cui Ji was speechless.

"Ridiculous? maybe. ”

Yu Nian shook his head, "After all, we are not capitalists in the real sense, so naturally we can't figure out the thinking of those people." ”

"Of course, encirclement and suppression is easier said than done. They don't think they have such skills, so they plan to act together with the giants. ”

Yu Nian felt funny, "Is this considered a plot with a tiger?"

"It's hard to say. ”

Cui Ji suggested a possibility, "Maybe these people think that being merged by giants is actually a good thing, at least they can hug their thighs." ”

"It's possible ......"

Yu Nian thought about it, and didn't bother to think about it, "Anyway, it's just a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not." In contrast, I pay more attention to Tang Yuan's films. ”

"A lost world?"

Cui Ji perked up, "Did you inquire about it, what are you talking about?"

Yu Nian's expression suddenly became a little strange, "If the person who revealed the news didn't deceive me, then we should be more familiar with his movie." ”

"What do you mean?" Cui Ji was stunned again.

"The Lost World, the approximate storyline, is an astronaut who, due to a spaceship crash, the protagonist pilots a small flying machine, crashes into a wormhole, and travels to a magical primordial planet. ”

Yu Nian said, "The human beings of that primordial planet...... In other words, human-like creatures are still in a relatively primitive stage of civilization. City-states and tribes coexisted, and brutal wars often took place over resources. ”

"They tamed the giants of war, such as pterosaurs, giant birds, and mammoths, and the battle began to crumble. The flying machine piloted by the protagonist was hit by the city-state pterodactyl, fell into a tribe, and was rescued by the heroine. ”

"You should also understand the plot after that. ”

Yu Nian said lightly: "The protagonist integrated into the tribe, and then helped the heroine win the war, or eliminate the soldiers, and let the world return to peace." ”

In the end, either the two were happily together, or the protagonist repaired the flying machine, tearfully waved goodbye to the heroine, and left the primordial planet. ”

"It's a very simple story, and we have a similar setting in our library of creative themes. It's a tribute to the Galactic Ship......"

The bigger the movie, the simpler the plot.

Complex and brain-burning blockbusters are either gods, word-of-mouth explodes, and the box office is soaring. Either the word-of-mouth exploded, the box office was average, and the applause was not popular.

"Simplicity is not the key. Cui Ji is also an understanding person, "The key is to make the simple plot vivid and interesting." ”

"That soup source, do you have this ability?"

Cui Ji said curiously: "His short film back then told a very warm story, full of literary style, otherwise it would not have impressed the judges of the MG Award." ”

Now, he is making commercial blockbusters and investing hundreds of millions. ”

He couldn't understand, "Gu Hui, the boss of Brilliant Pictures, as a big man in the industry, this is not a good stubble. He's really ruined his investment, and it's probably hard to fool him. ”

"You also said that Gu Hui is not a good stubble. Then it should be clear that such a big guy will not trust anyone. ”

Yu Nian said slowly: "Tang Yuan can gain Gu Hui's trust, and he must have something to rely on. ”

“...... Look. ”

Cui Ji doesn't care, as an outsider, he is happy to watch the excitement.

"yes, look. ”

Yu Nian turned his head and looked at Zhou Mu's director. After watching for a long time, he quietly left. He is not needed here, at least not now.

Time is like water, time is like an arrow.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

The entertainment industry is still so turbulent, but the crew is calm and unwavering. Everyone is serious and focused on filming, and there is no psychological understanding of things outside the body.

But when a piece of news reached Zhou Mu's ears, he couldn't help but be surprised, "What did you say?"

"The Lost World is finished!"

Cui Ji's face was strange, "Now that the finale banquet is being held, the reporter took a photo, it doesn't look like fake news." ”

"So fast?"

This sentence is familiar!
