Chapter 488: A Different "Special Training"
Li Xinglong's identity cannot be determined for the time being. Whether it is in Haitian's heart to PD or a smoke bomb deliberately released, no one knows.
Either way, prepare first.
Leo's work is different from his previous works. It is not filmed episode by episode in order, nor is it filmed in a concentrated manner in different scenes.
Meng Lang has played a new trick!
Leo's plot is about 30% of the time spent in cultivation or special training. And this part of the plot, because of the single scene and few characters, can be filmed intensively.
The rest of the plot is filmed in order.
In order to fully squeeze the actors and improve the efficiency of shooting, the crew was divided into two. It just so happened that Yan Tao recently became obsessed with the Polish beautiful girl Misha, and ran the crew every day, and Meng Langbai picked up an assistant director.
Yan Tao led some of the supporting roles to shoot materials on location in the order of the script. And Meng Lang led Wang Dali, Wang Fei, Li Wanbo, Mu Jie and others to focus on filming the scene of "Fengyuan Cultivation Special Training".
The role of special training is very simple!
Normally, the monster appears and causes chaos, and Feng Yuan transforms into Leo and eats it. Zhu Xingtuan, who looked like a head teacher with a serious expression, leaned on crutches, angrily scolded him for not being a weapon, and formulated a corresponding training plan for him......
Generally speaking, Feng Yuan would comprehend the corresponding skills after each retreat and cultivation.
For example, spinning and flying kicks, three-stage attacks, waterfall cuts, empty-handed white blades, back slashing, hand knives and knees, jumping over streams, high-speed spins, karate, handstand scissor legs, closed-eye tactics, bundle flying falls, quick transposition, and so on.
"If you work hard, you will get something!"
The theme of Leo's story has always revolved around "struggle". He is not born strong, he just works harder than others.
From this point of view, Leo's theme is clearly the positive energy of "positive sunshine", and there is no element of "negative laziness".
Why do the audience feel depressed?
Meng Lang felt that on the one hand, Leo's successive defeats had hit the children's confidence in him. On the other hand, Leo's growth is too real.
It's so real that it's autistic!
Take the memorable "Saiwen drove into Leo" that many people remember, Feng Yuan's figure of struggling and running on the rocky beach with bare feet is not like a nameless passerby who carries hundreds of pounds of goods alone in the pouring rain and grits his teeth?
This repressive style hurts Leo!
Leo's story style presents a sense of "disconnection". The dark depression in the early stage can be called the most Showa, and in the middle period, it turned back to the Taylor style, and in the later stage, it began to render negative depression again.
The story structure is mysterious, which is puzzling to future generations.
But from another perspective, referring to the neon environment when Leo broadcasts, this production style seems to be normal.
At the time of Leo's broadcast, there were three external factors that influenced the producers of Tsuburaya.
These three external factors are the popularity of "Neon Sinking", the chaos of the neon economy, and the fact that "Kamen Rider" has become the most popular tokusatsu hero show.
"Neon Sinking" has sparked heated discussions among the people, and the panic and anxiety are coupled with the economic chaos caused by the first oil crisis, and the neon environment is generally pessimistic.
And Kamen Rider surpassed Ultraman to become Neon's most popular tokusatsu hero show, and also became the source of Tsuburaya's worries.
They began to study knights.
The plot of Kamen Rider has been based on the "weird, surprising, and terrifying" style from the very beginning. The more I studied, the deeper I sank into it, and from then on I embarked on a road of no return.
These external factors lead to Leo obviously having a "positive sunshine" theme, but the story style is depressed and pessimistic.
Meng Lang has his own thinking.
The core "struggle and growth" is worth retaining, and the more pessimistic and negative parts are not suitable for the current young people and can be replaced with others.
The plot is not what it used to be!
With a stinky face all day long, it seems that Feng Yuan owes him tens of billions of Saiwen. Training is a strict teacher, but going home is a different picture.
Annu pinched his arm, pulled his ear, and asked him to buy soy sauce and vegetables, can he still put on a stand of a cold and strict teacher?
Fengyuan is similar.
In the original version, he has too many responsibilities and missions on his shoulders, and it is difficult for the audience to see his moments of joy and laughter.
In the PD version, perhaps due to nature, Wang Dali's "honest and honest" character gives Fengyuan a different charm.
During special training, he was able to complain about the low salaries of the MAC players while practicing, and he couldn't rent a high-quality apartment in Jiangcheon.
Although he did not say anything about the defeat in the battle, he attached great importance to it in his heart. He is able to cope with the subjects he trains with ease, and sometimes he can create some extra surprises.
Training is not boring.
Leo is an intelligent being, not a numb and ruthless kicking robot. There are also a lot of tricks to play with about his training.
The main thing is that Wang Dali is powerful!
This guy is worthy of being a PD martial arts wizard, and his agility is not like that of mortals. No matter how difficult the move Murjay asks, he always delivers.
That's talent......
You don't even need special effects, just a casual jump is a standard backflip. Watching him perform is indeed a pleasure.
In this case, acting is no longer very important. After all, no matter how good the acting is, it is useless to fail these actions.
In view of Comrade Wang Dali's excellent performance, the filming of Leo's special training process was extremely smooth. In addition to the time-consuming time of running exterior scenes, a special training scene can be filmed in half a day at most.
Huge time saver!
But when filming the "Holster War" in a special studio, Meng Lang ran into trouble.
As the king of Showa martial arts, Leo's fights are mostly based on fists and kicks, and light skills are rarely seen.
This also leads to a problem.
After putting on the heavy holster, Wang's vigorous movement was restricted. Even if you can jump and somersault, it is difficult to regain the movements of special training.
"Let's hang Weiya!"
Meng Lang covered his forehead and said: "The holster affects the activity too much, and it is ugly to shoot it without hanging Weiya." ”
Although, hanging Weiya is also ugly.
has been filming Ultraman for so long, Meng Lang has never used a wire rope. Because of Ultraman's play, I didn't have a chance to use this at all.
I didn't expect Leo to make an exception!
After the wire rope is hoisted, the so-called "flying kick in the air" immediately becomes simpler. You can also use this string to play a little new trick.
For example, "spin in the air"!
Or is it Otter's light work......
Leo, who was hanging from the wire rope, seemed to have a pair of wings. Many difficult movements can be completed with ease.
Is the rope an eyesore?
This is not a big deal, and it is very common in the industry. In post-production, the excess rope is simply erased by a software algorithm.
It's nothing more than taking a little more time.
The last obstacle to Leo's play was solved by hanging Weiya, and the subsequent filming went much smoother.
Just as Meng Lang was busy playing "Leo with the String", Tao Mi told him a piece of good news. "Me and My Road Idiot Boyfriend", which was delayed because of the epidemic, finally sold the first round of broadcast rights.
