Chapter 177: Humanoid Steadicam
Lu Yang's assurance, Xin Caijie believes.
Don't ask why, some men are just so easy to trust.
may be because of his handsomeness, or it may be the kind of "reliable factor" that is emitted all the time.
Life is so unreasonable, and some people don't look reliable no matter how they behave. Some people even say that he is an alien, you believe it.
Lu Jinyu didn't mention how depressed she was.
He is not stupid, through today's conversation, he basically figured out his status as a crew.
Lin Menglan was invited by Director Xin, and it was definitely a "hold you in the palm of your hand" level treatment.
And Xin Caijie is the director, and she is the absolute head of this film.
That Lu Yang, although he is a supporting actor, is also an assistant director, so the communication with Director Xin is more convenient than himself. And he is also Lin Menglan's agent, and he is also very familiar with Lin Menglan.
It is a man covered by the two giants, a little white face who eats soft rice.
Myself...... At the lower end of the food chain?
Can you believe it?
What about the male protagonist who said yes?
Lu Jinyu may still lack some experience in speaking and doing things, but he also has his own little abacus.
This time, he took over the mediocre actor of "Jigsaw", and his team was against it.
But considering that Director Xin and Lin Menglan are both single beauties, they finally agreed.
What is the intention, and do you need to think about it?
But now, Lu Jinyu is keenly aware that this Lu Yang will be the biggest obstacle to the development of emotions between him and the two beauties.
This man has to be trampled on by himself, he has to.
......
After going back, Lu Yang made a phone call to a brother named Qiu Zaiguo.
"Old Qiu, what are you doing?" Lu Yang asked.
"Looking for a job. "Qiu Zaiguodao," Director Jiang's side, it will not be open for three years, and it will be open for three years. We can't, we're looking for crews everywhere right now. ”
"Hehe, your skills, I'm afraid you don't need to find a general job, right?" Lu Yang smiled.
He and Qiu Zaiguo met in the crew of "Let the Missiles Fly".
Because there was a scene at that time, it was necessary to go to Steadicam, but there are not many photographers in China who are proficient in Steadicam, and the master of the crew at that time was sick and no one could use it, so the shooting was interrupted for a while.
In the end, Lu Yang took a look at the photographers, and directly ordered Qiu Zaiguo to carry it.
You know what?
Qiu Zaiguo really filmed!
He will use Steadicam!
And the shooting effect is very good, no worse than the master master in the hand.
Steadicam this thing, 30 to 50 pounds, is very difficult to use, and this weight alone has already screened out some thin photographers.
In addition, the operation is complicated, and some of them are screened.
You also need the photographer to be sharp-eyed, skillful, have a certain grasp of the plot, have his own sense of smell for space and picture, and have a keen judgment of angle.
The difficulty can be said to be getting higher and higher.
Lu Yang chose Qiu Zaiguo because he knew this person.
Not surprisingly, Qiu Zaiguo and Hua Yu were later known as the double masters of mainland photography.
One is a representative of the academic school, and the other is a typical practical school.
Because he has no professional education, Qiu Zaiguo started very low, and he worked as a camera assistant in the crew for six or seven years. After five or six years of mixing in bad dramas, he finally seized the opportunity to take off in one step because of his excellent strength.
In this era, people who are not successful may not be without real materials.
But those who succeed must have excellent skills.
Because there is never a shortage of talents for planting flowers.
The current Qiu Zaiguo's level itself will not be lower than Huayu. Maybe the artistic attainments are a little worse, and it will take time to make up for it, but this piece, with Lu Yang and Director Xin to check it, then there will be no problem.
Director Xin himself is famous for his artistic attainments, and what he lacks is a high-level executor.
"There was a movie that approached me, and I was very impressed because the director of photography was Hua Yu. He is currently the hottest new generation of photographers in China, and he will definitely be able to learn a lot from him. Qiu Zaiguo spoke, his joy overflowing.
Who knew that Lu Yang actually came to say: "Lao Qiu, why did you go back more and more?"
Qiu Zaiguo's face was full of question marks.
Why do you suddenly start a fight?
"Why do you want to be Hua Yu's deputy? Have you forgotten what I told you before?" Lu Yang said, "Your professional skills are definitely the top people in this circle, Hua Yu should be the object of your comparison, not an idol!"
"I'll tell you the truth, you know "Jigsaw"? Now that there is a lack of a director of photography and a handheld, I recommend you, you can do it yourself!"
Lu Yang hung up the phone.
Then I silently counted five seconds, three seconds of reaction time, and two seconds of callback time, which should be enough.
After five seconds, however, there was no movement on the phone.
Lu Yang was slightly embarrassed.
Well, it should be Qiu Zaiguo's hand shaking, so he pressed it wrong and waited for another three seconds.
Another three seconds.
Sure enough, the phone rang, and it was Qiu Zaiguo who called back.
As soon as Lu Yang was connected, there was no stop.
"Really? What you said is true? Director Xin Caijie? Is it the "Puzzle" that has been very popular recently? Is it looking for me? Director of Photography? Is it really fake? Can you still hold the ......camera?"
There is an endless stream, Qiu Zaiguo's choice is self-evident.
......
The next day, Qiu Zaiguo directly came to the place where the crew stayed.
After meeting Xin Caijie, Xin Caijie was still skeptical.
Because Qiu Zaiguo is too young, he is less than thirty.
At this age, only Huayu is qualified to be the director of photography in China, not that the rest of the people can't do it, if you really don't consider the quality, you can do it, but Director Xin can't look down on it.
It just so happens that after all, he is the director of photography, and Director Xin has a camera crew here, and there are a few people who are not convinced.
In the technical industry, a lot of things are easy to say. Unlike cultural and artistic things, the pen relies on a mouth, and you can say whatever you want.
Photographers like this, if you can't do kung fu, you can just pull it out for a walk.
Just like a hotel chef, as soon as the knife work and pot work are made, it is probably clear how much salary should be paid.
Several photographers immediately carried a camera and ran a few points.
Basically, it simulates some of the situations that are usually filmed with the group.
Then everyone watched the replay, and it was clear.
One is the degree of shaking during movement, and hand shaking is not a photographer.
The other is the level of quality of the picture at each point.
In the middle of the process, you also need to consider the problems of changing the focal length and adjusting the light, and the level is easy to identify.
These are all basic skills, and they have nothing to do with things like artistic grasp, and no matter how good they are, they can only be used as handhelds, not directors of photography.
But if that doesn't work, get out of here.
After all, the director of photography often has to go into battle in person.
The director of photography that Qiu Zaiguo applied for is also a handheld camera, responsible for the main shooting.
Soon.
As soon as it came down, the picture was played.
There was no more opposition around.
On the contrary, several photographers are constantly chattering.
"What kind of hand is this? Not shaking at all!"
"It's amazing, this living shoulder camera is at the level of Steadicam!"
"I'm afraid this isn't a humanoid Steadicam!"
"I heard that he can also be Steadicam, and he can carry fifty pounds. ”
"It's really fake, those who can use heavyweight Steadicam are all great gods!"
"It is worthy of being a master of the handheld machine in "Let the Missiles Fly", and it is really a good pen!"
