303 [New Movie]
Of course.
In fact, there is a difference between works such as Xianxia and mythology, but for ordinary audiences, this kind of TV series can be classified into one category, anyway, they are all kinds of flying away, and for directors, the shooting method of this kind of TV series is also relatively similar, and they will use green screens and other special effects on a large scale to do post-production special effects synthesis......
Fast forward to three days later.
With all aspects of Crimson's preparations, "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" finally ushered in the official start of filming, I don't know if he was learning from Luo Yuan, Chen Jie didn't hold any start-up ceremony, and directly took the actors to start filming, Luo Yuan occasionally appeared on the set, but rarely gave opinions, even if he had any ideas, he tried to communicate with Chen Jie in private-
It is important to guarantee the authority of the director.
This made the actors really nervous. The actor Gu Yue and the heroine Su Li can be said to be both popular actors with Luo Yuan, and Luo Yuan is staring at them during the filming, the nervousness of the two can be imagined, after all, Luo Yuan's requirements for performance are recognized as strict, once the two of them do not perform well, there will be a feeling of guilt in their hearts that they are sorry for Director Luo's careful cultivation.
Even the male and female protagonists are like this, let alone others.
Fortunately, Luo Yuan rarely came over after staying on the set for a few days, although Chen Jie was shooting this kind of work for the first time, his understanding was still quite good, and he was able to keenly find the most suitable shooting method.
"This role has to be played well. ”
The agent Cao Rui can roughly guess Luo Yuan's thoughts, and inevitably mention Gu Yue a few words: "The boss arranged for you to act in a TV series in order for you to gain enough popularity, although now you have the name of Sixiaosheng in the entertainment industry, but part of the reason for this name is that we Crimson helped you operate it, and you are still far from the real work, and the boss also saw this drawback and picked this drama for you." ”
Gu Yue nodded.
Since the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story", he has been busy with various commercial performance announcements, and after digesting the popularity brought by that movie, the company immediately arranged a new TV series for himself, which is still the highlight of the boss himself, which is obviously to pick himself up.
Gratitude, excitement, nervousness......
Crimson and Luo Yuan have the grace of reinvention for the current Gu Yue, he believes in the concept that the king treats me as a national soldier and I will repay him as a national soldier, and at this moment he has already made up his mind to be tied to death on the ship of Crimson.
And Luo Yuan naturally didn't know about these.
didn't continue to go to the set of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" because he had already started writing a new script, in fact, as early as returning from the last race, Luo Yuan already had the prototype of the next movie in his heart, otherwise he would not have clearly told Xia Ran that the next work would be a racing-themed movie.
Racing theme!
There have been quite a lot of film and television masterpieces on this theme in the previous life, and the movie that Luo Yuan wanted to shoot with a humble and low-key male protagonist was the one that created countless stalks for netizens in the previous life:
Takumi Fujiwara, "Initial D"!
This is a film adaptation of the anime of the same name in the island country, from the two-dimensional to the three-dimensional adaptation of the work, this one can be said to belong to a more successful category, looking back on the plot of the movie, Luo Yuan remembers that some of the shots of the mountaintop racing are still quite exciting, and the film adds a lot of computer special effects while also taking into account the characteristics of the comics, the electronic soundtrack and theme song are the commendable features of the film-
Of course, there was a lot of criticism.
On the one hand, it is to criticize the actors, such as Jay Chou's inexperienced acting skills at that time and was crushed by Mr. Chen as a supporting role, and on the other hand, it is to criticize the plot of the movie adaptation is not good enough, in fact, Luo Yuan can understand this, because it is not easy to compress a very long anime work into the time of a movie.
The blame is that the slogans are shouted too loudly during the propaganda.
said that this movie is produced by the original team of "Infernal Affairs", this kind of publicity method will make the audience's expectations too high, you must know that "Infernal Affairs" is the pinnacle of Hong Kong films, where is the work that "Initial D" can surpass, and the result is naturally a collapse.
Jay Chou's acting skills are indeed jerky.
However, in Luo Yuan's opinion, in addition to the shortcomings of his acting skills, Jay Chou's personality is really a bit of his true character compared to Fujiwara Takumi, a comic character, at least he will not be embarrassed to the point of collapse of the whole paragraph.
Including the plot adaptation, there is not much of a problem.
The real problem is still the core of the movie, the drag racing scene is too single, there are a few races in the comics with a very outstanding atmosphere that do not appear in the movie, the audience will feel amazing when they see the drift for the first time, but do you have no other skills to show off except drifting, and it is the lack of these different styles of racing scenes that makes the movie seem monotonous and repetitive, lacking tension and persuasiveness, and the superficial description of each car and each race, and the rendering of the race scene and momentum is insufficient......
To put it simply, the plot is not enough to burn!
How to ignite, this question is not difficult for Luo Yuan, he is a director who has watched all the fast series, not to mention the countless racing movies he has watched in his previous life, Hollywood's achievements in commercial film and television shooting are indeed worth looking at, so when writing the script, Luo Yuan has begun to refer to the essence of various racing movies in his memory, to see if he can integrate it with his next work, this kind of scenery seen on the shoulders of giants is unimaginable to others.
And it was when the script for his film began to be written......
A call from Wang Ming came, and the man who belonged to the Seven Masters of Light and Shadow with Luo Yuan said with a smile: "I heard that your new movie is going to cooperate with one of the Seven Majors, so why don't you choose our Qianyu Media?"
"Thousand Feather Media?"
Luo Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I'll go back and let the company's people contact your representatives, if both sides are satisfied with the conditions, they can naturally cooperate." ”
Aurora Media has Jiang Yu.
Luo Yuan once accepted Jiang Yu's favor, since this is the case, it is natural to cooperate with Jiang Yu, as long as the other party does not make any excessive requests, anyway, it is essentially no different from cooperating with any of the seven.
"One more thing. ”
Wang Ming's laughter continued unabated: "The Dragon and Tiger Award, one of the five major awards, is about to start, you won the Best Newcomer Director of the Dragon Elephant Award last year, and this year you may be able to remove the word newcomer." ”
"Dragon and Tiger Award?"
Luo Yuan suddenly realized that time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, another award among the five major awards is about to start.
