Chapter Ninety-Five: A Sophisticated Fight Production
Studio
Zhou Binbin and Yuan Ye tied up Weiya, the staff checked it, and when they saw that there was no problem, they nodded at Zuo Le, and Zuo Le picked up the familiar horn.
"Attention units, prepare - begin!"
"Hong Miao, try my three-plate axe, and split Huashan!"
As soon as the words fell, Zhou Binbin roared wildly, and at the foot of his feet, the whole person was lifted up by Wei Ya, and Xuanhua slashed at Yuan Ye with two axes.
"It's good to come. ”
Yuan Ye did not retreat, stepped forward with his sword, and Changhong's sword accurately and accurately followed between the two axes, approaching Zhou Binbin's front door, and Zhou Binbin hurriedly withdrew the axe to block.
Yuan Ye took advantage of the situation to attack closely, the sword was fierce, and Zhou Binbin, who was killed, fought and retreated, almost without the power to fight back.
............
The two people seem to be fighting fiercely, but in fact, there is room for action, and the action will be accelerated through editing in the later stage to enhance the tension of the picture.
In addition, there are some moves that seem unreasonable in the fight between the two, which are also reserved for special effects in the later stage.
After all, it's martial arts, so you have to add some sword energy or something to increase your momentum.
"Cards. ”
Zuo Le shouted, Zhou Binbin and the two changed their positions, the camera switched, and the two got together to play for a while.
From time to time, Zuo Le or the action director signals to pause, correct the action to complete, or shoot a close-up, and then continue to play, sometimes a set of actions has to be done several times, which is convenient for shooting with different cameras.
The process is very boring, and it even looks funny to the layman, but this is how most of the scenes are filmed.
The scenes that the audience sees are all finished products that have been edited and produced in the later stage, and when the crew is filming, the actors will definitely not be able to shoot in real time.
The action movie is okay, at least some of the crew can still do it to the flesh, and practice a few tricks with hard bridges and hard horses.
Martial arts films are mostly trick drills, with the main performance rather than actual combat, while the myth of Xianxia is simpler, the actor just stands there and compares, and the rest is all left to the special effects post-stage.
From a professional point of view, the fighting scenes of "Seven Swords" are already extremely sophisticated!
Changed to the usual martial arts crew, not to mention the post-production special effects, it is difficult to say just the martial arts instructor who is reluctant to pay a lot of money, just design a few actions, and let the actors go up and cut with a sword.
A few people fought for a long time, and just seeing the somersault, the weapons couldn't be touched, and the background music was full of swords colliding.
That's it, and most of the actions are done by stand-ins, except for a few close-ups, the protagonist's face can't be seen at all............
Compared with them, "Seven Swords" invited the top domestic martial arts instructors to be responsible for the action design, and every starring actor and every important fight will be specially designed in combination with the characteristics of the characters and the scene environment.
The actor conducted martial arts training for more than a month before the start-up, except for a few difficult movements, the rest needed stand-ins, and most of the rest were actors in person.
Du Lei, one of the three major photographers in China, is in charge of the camera, shooting fight scenes from all angles in long shots, close shots, and close-ups.
Coupled with the post-production cooperation of the top special effects team.
Zuo Le didn't dare to say that the fighting effect of "Seven Swords" could reach the peak level of martial arts dramas, but it would definitely be among the first-class, and it would not hold back the literary drama.
...............
Twenty minutes later, Zuo Le announced that he was suspending filming.
The actor ran out of energy.
This is another disadvantage of playing, the actor is too tired to film, and it is easy to get injured, if one is accidentally injured, the actor has to stop work to recuperate, and even can't continue to act, which is too delayed.
In addition, the difficulty of filming is high, the director and crew are troublesome, the actors are not willing to endure hardship, and the audience does not buy it much, so there are fewer and fewer action scenes in many film and television dramas, and there are battle scenes, and everyone generally likes to use special effects.
However, the effect of the special effects depends on whether the crew is willing to spend money.........
The actor rested, but Zuo Le still had to pull the action director to discuss the next step of shooting, and at the same time, he had to look through the materials that had been filmed, and go through it in his mind to see if there was any incoherence in the need to make up the shot.
To be honest, this thing is much more tiring than filming a sitcom, and it has only been less than a week since the start of filming, and Zuo Le's daily worry is more than twice as much as when he was filming sitcoms before.
Sometimes when he rests, Zuo Le can't help but regret what kind of martial arts movies he has nothing to do when he is idle.
But now that the stalls are all up, no matter how hard and tired you are, you have to grit your teeth and swallow it in your stomach, and when the actors are almost rested, Zuo Le beckoned to continue filming.
On that day, Zuo Le filmed for more than five hours just for the play.
Zhou Binbin's arms were so tired that he couldn't lift the axe, and his dark face was a little pale.
Yuan Ye is not much better, he has the most scenes today, and he has to fight against three in the later stage.
Fortunately, he is young, recovers quickly, and the Changhong sword in his hand is not as heavy as Zhou Binbin's axe, and his condition is acceptable after finishing work.
Several other actors, Fan Fa and Zhang Ruijin are not much of a big deal, the two don't play much, Hong Tao is a little difficult, he doesn't play too much, but he can't stand his fat, and he can't hold up a lot of exercise.
Thanks to his weapon is a meteor hammer, the weight is not very heavy, if he plays with an axe like Zhou Binbin, it is estimated that he will lie down directly.
The next day, Zhou Binbin took a day off, his two arms were overworked, and now he was too sore to lift them.
There was no way, Zuo Le could only change the role of other people, and at the same time learned a lesson.
Filming should be moderate, and the physical condition of the actors should be considered.
............
February 26, the eleventh day of the first month
The average rating of the whole drama "Family with Children" exceeded 1.5, ranking second in the Spring Festival file, and opening a big gap with the third.
Dongshan TV took the opportunity to broadcast several programs related to "Family with Children", which had a very good publicity effect, and at the same time, with the continuous popularity of the TV series, it fed back to the program itself, which also led to a certain degree of improvement in the ratings of these programs.
The person in charge of the variety show department couldn't sit still, and urged Tian Yan to prepare for the "Zuo Le Interview Day Trip", Tian Yan had no choice but to ask Zuo Le for help.
Zuo Le must give face to his girlfriend's soft-spoken request for help, but he also said ugly things in front, and the filming process of the program film crew was arranged by him, and the film crew could not disturb the daily shooting of the crew.
Tian Yan relayed Zuo Le's request to Dongshantai, and when he saw Zuo Le's agreement, he immediately responded to Zuo Le's three chapters.
Later, when Chen Changshan learned about this, he simply asked Tian Yan himself to be in charge of the film crew, as long as the quality is guaranteed, how to shoot the show will be discussed with the two of you.
On the afternoon of the next day, Tian Yan took the interview and film team he formed and drove to the Changqing Film and Television Base.
After careful calculation, after Zuo Le returned to Quancheng from Zhaoshi, he has been busy with the crew of "Seven Swords", although he and Tian Yan kept talking on the phone every day, but they didn't learn Chinese together.
As the saying goes, when you see it, it's like every three autumns!
That night, someone pretended to be a public servant. The crew of "Seven Swords" ended work two hours early.........
The next day, the film crew that had rested for the night regathered, Tian Yan gave a brief introduction in front of the camera, and then led the film crew to Zuo Le, who was directing the staff to set not far away.
"Hello Director Zuo, I'm Tian Yan. ”
The young lady shook Zuo Le's hand seriously, and then asked Zuo Le to say hello to the camera, and today's interview officially began.
