The wind kept whistling in my ears, bringing many crystal snowflakes.

Carrying the power of the wind, the snowflakes fell on the face and hurt a little, but as for the ones that fell on the hair and coat, they didn't feel anything.

Whew!

It was as if I had just remembered that I needed to breathe, and it seemed that I had forgotten about it just now, so it was much faster.

When I opened my eyes, it was a little gloomy.

Hiroko Watanabe was lying in the snow, and the white gas coming out of her mouth seemed to tell her that she was still alive.

Since you are still alive, get up.

Standing up, with a black coat and black leather shoes, Hiroko Watanabe looked at the world with black eyes.

In the vast expanse of white, there are some trees in the distance, as if the whole world is left with snow and trees.

It's like her heart.

Let's go.

Hiroko Watanabe didn't speak, just raised her legs and walked out of this very special snowfield.

At this time, her whole person slowly became smaller and smaller, only to realize that she was just a very small point in this world of snow and trees.

Even if it disappears, it doesn't seem to have much of an impact.

This is the first shot of "Love Letter".

......

"Wow!

"This shot is fantastic too!"

"Really, really...... I don't even know what to say. ”

"This, is this me?"

Miho Nakayama came to Otaru, and the crew of "Love Letter" was almost ready, so they shot the first shot according to the script.

Seriously, Miho Nakayama didn't have too much preparation, although she had already got it before, and there was a script, but she had too much work and too little time.

Interestingly, Yuki Kusano, the young director, had very strange requests for this shot.

There are no lines.

What you see, what you think, what you emote.

Remember, hold your breath at first, and hold your breath hard until you can't hold it anymore.

Miho Nakayama has also filmed a lot of film and television dramas, but no director has ever asked for this.

Because these three requirements are too simple, but since you, the overseer of Kusano, are only asking for this, then, of course, I have no problem.

It's just that Miho Nakayama didn't expect this filming process.

The requirements for her are very simple, but the requirements for others are very, very high.

In addition, large machinery is used.

Until the filming was over, Yuki Kusano simply asked everyone to come and see it, even if it was a scene in the play.

You know, this is a relatively rare situation, generally speaking, the actor can only see the finished film, and during the filming process, the director will not let the actor see what he has played, which may lead to the actor playing.

But now that you're going to see it, let's take a look, that's what you, the young overseer, are asking for.

But when she saw it like this, she was completely stunned.

That's great!

It's not just her 'big thing', all the staff members are shocked after seeing it.

This shot is really good!

In the whole shot, there are almost only two colors, black and white.

The black is the tree, the hair of Hiroko Watanabe, her clothes, and her eyes.

The white is the snow, and her skin.

The snow in the sky, the snow of the whole world, this white wraps the black, and it is precisely because of this wrapping that the black is more conspicuous.

Moreover, there is a very powerful artistic conception in this shot, and there are quite powerful things, but now that I look at it, I can't figure out what it is?

It's like an unconscious feeling.

Miho Nakayama was shocked, as well as Morita them, and among them, photographer Haruto Muto was the most emotional.

He had just come down from the sky.

"There's Gada!" he smiled like a child when he saw his masterpiece.

How was this shot taken?

Although Yuki Kusano has few requirements for Miho Nakayama, he has very high requirements for this shot, that's right, this is what Miho Nakayama sees, and what he, the superintendent, asks of other staff.

In fact, Yuki Kusano just settled on one sentence from the beginning.

"I want a long shot!"

The so-called long shot is a shot of more than 10 seconds.

Therefore, how long the long lens is, this is the key, and in this lens, there is a special difficulty.

To take a panoramic view.

From close-up to long-range shots, this is the difficulty, and the long-range view has a panoramic view, which is even more difficult, and it was determined early on that the location of the shooting was at Mt. Tengu.

The scenery of Mt. Tengu near Otaru is indeed beautiful, and taking a panoramic view will naturally be beautiful, especially the place we found.

A hillock with an area of several thousand square meters and covered with snow.

To wake up from the snow from Hiroko Watanabe and film her leaving the mountain, it was done with just one shot.

So, in fact, that's how it is, Yuki Kusano's simple request, just one sentence, to ask for a long shot, created a huge difficulty.

However, the young overseer will not lower his demands, and I have only said a word.

What to do?

Let's start from the back, if you want a panoramic view, a helicopter will definitely not work, because it will blow the snow away, then, there is only one possibility.

Cranes, long-arm cranes.

But what about the first close-up?

Do you want to stand and shoot Miho Nakayama's sleeping position?

That's not good, because the heroine has to stand up, in this case, there will be a lot of changes in the camera, and it will be unstable.

Finally, a solution was finally thought.

As a photographer, Haruru Muto needs him to lie on the snow, and the camera is also lying on his stomach, taking pictures of Miho Nakayama's side face, and then, when she gets up, Haruru Muto will be hoisted up.

It's just that he's hanging up on his stomach, but luckily, he has a Steadicam stabilizer on his body, so the camera is hardly affected, and he doesn't have to work so hard.

Steadicam wears this kind of thing like a terminator, and this thing was invented by the great director Kubrick and his friends to get a more stable shot, and the great director is also notoriously demanding and weird.

Kusano's same is true today.

So, Muto Haru's aerial posture is quite strange, but fortunately, we succeeded.

Just such a shot, not counting the labor costs, cost 1 million yen.

The crane is a lot of money, plus Steadicam, it's basically a friendship price.

So our young overseer, is it too much?

Now that everyone looks at it, they all feel that this money, as well as the previous efforts, is too worthwhile!

But in fact, only Yuki Kusano understands that the current technology can only do this to this extent, and if it is a future life, with drones, it can be easily completed.

So, it's not too much to ask for yourself.

Of course, it's better not to say this, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be beaten.

Not only the main service but also the staff were watching, like others, Abe Kan, Nanako, Sakai Masato, and the very hanging Kashiwahara Takashi and Matsu Takako were also watching, and everyone couldn't hide their surprise after reading it.

But there is one exception, she is the younger sister of Miho Nakayama, Shinobu Nakayama.

"Sister. ”

"Huh?"

"That, this shot, must have a very special meaning. ”

"This ...... Of course there is, haha......"

Miho Nakayama was a little embarrassed by her sister's question, of course, she is also better at acting, and immediately put on an expression of 'I know your sister very well'.

As a younger sister, how does Shinobu Nakayama not know the details of her sister?

She wanted to laugh very much, but in this scene, how could she dismantle her sister's stage.

Moreover, Shinobu Nakayama didn't have her place in this crew, and this time she came over completely because of her sister, as for why she came, of course it was because of that one.

Well, now it's not just a book, it's also the script for this movie.

My sister didn't see much, but Shinobu Nakayama secretly watched it many times, after all, compared to her sister, her work was much more leisurely.

I don't know why, but every time I look at it, I cry, it's weird.

How sad is Love Letter?

It doesn't seem to be, but why are you crying, Shinobu Nakayama hasn't figured it out, but now, after watching this shot, Shinobu Nakayama seems to understand a little, but it still seems to be a little close.

But at this time, the crane was already preparing to go down the mountain, but Yuki Kusano climbed onto the crane.

"Everyone, this shot has been shown to everyone, but it can't be seen in vain, I want to ask you now, what do you think?"

Feelings?

After listening to Yuki Kusano's words, everyone in the crew was a little confused, you look at me, I'll look at you.

"We all said it just now, Master, this shot is amazing!" Nanako is still very smart, and she doesn't just know how to drive.

But Yuki Kusano smiled when he heard this, shook his head and said, "Of course, but what I want to hear is your voice from the heart." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions were a little weird, especially Sakai Masato.

"Brother. The college student made a horn with both hands, as if he was afraid that Yuki Kusano wouldn't hear it, and shouted, "Although I admit that this shot is really great, you don't want to be such a stinky fart, okay?"

For a moment, laughter broke out, and as for several ladies, they couldn't help laughing.

Takako Matsu was covering her mouth, but to be honest, after watching this shot, she was also shocked by Yuki Kusano's talent.

It's great, but this guy is still so annoying.

So, of course, she didn't speak.

Abe was silent for a while, he knew what his boss should be trying to say.

Sure enough, I saw Yuki Kusano set his eyes on Miho Nakayama, "Hiroko Watanabe, what do you think?" Or why do you think you're lying in the snow?"

This remark is almost equivalent to telling everyone directly that the answer should be in Hiroko Watanabe.

So, how does Miho Nakayama answer a 'big thing'?

"This ......" how does she know!

Could it be that our 'big thing' is going to make a fool of her? She didn't even figure out what she was playing?

But at this time, Shinobu Nakayama beside him said a word.

"Overseer, is Sister Hiroko trying to end her life?"

For a moment, all eyes were on her.

Yuki Kusano nodded, "Hiroko Watanabe actually has a tendency to be depressed. ”

In fact, this point is very subtle, Yuki Kusano has seen many interpretations of this "Love Letter" in later generations, there are many UP owners and public accounts, but most of them are not seen, of course, this is not directly expressed in the movie, but if you connect many scenes of Hiroko, it is not difficult to find that she may want to end her young life in this first shot.

Neither nor the script, Yuki Kusano did not write this. Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
