Chapter 374: The Sun Never Sets on March

"British director?"

Just a few days after the finale, Su Yao rushed to bring a script, saying that it was from the United Kingdom?

"Anish?" Ding Cheng took a look, the director had never heard of it at all, and his name was four words:

Lost in the web?

"I checked that he was a screenwriter, wrote a few small scripts, and became a director for the first time. Su Yao explained: "I found it in the mailbox, you can take a look at it." ”

Ding Cheng nodded, there must be something extraordinary about making Yao Zai say this kind of thing, and he was quickly attracted by the script, and he didn't speak for more than forty minutes.

"Contact the other party as soon as possible!" After reading it, he said directly: "Make an appointment to meet immediately!"

Su Yao smiled: "The other party is already on the way, and he will be there tomorrow after coming from the UK." ”

Ding Cheng nodded with satisfaction, Yao Zai, who knows me!

Re-studied the script carefully, and liked it more and more, but I didn't expect it to be another low-budget suspense mystery film, the quality is not inferior to the invisible witnesses, and even compared to the tuner who just finished filming, the quality is even better.

"I'm a die-hard fan of Benge reasoning, and I don't know how much I've seen since I was a child. ”

Anish was a little nervous in the face of Ding Cheng, in fact, the script was just a chance to try, but I didn't expect to really meet the hot actor?

Ding Cheng smiled kindly and let the other party slowly relax, this is undoubtedly a textbook-like work of ontological reasoning.

The most exquisite design lays out the truth in all the details of the film at the beginning of the film, and I believe that many viewers will cleverly claim that they have already guessed the real murderer.

However, for the works of Benge's reasoning, it is not the ability to guess the truth, especially when this movie involves few characters, and you can think of who the murderer is by using the elimination method in combination with the duration.

What's really interesting is that when the director puts all the clues in front of you at the beginning, can you piece together all the clues like the protagonist and logically arrive at the truth.

The script did this perfectly!

"In my design, this work is not just a mystery film, the emotional threads of the male protagonist play a crucial role in this film. ”

"I'm going to use the first 5 minutes to pave the background of the male protagonist's family, from the initial Windows XP boot screen, to establish the female protagonist's personal users, and the photos and videos of a happy family of three show ...... one by one"

"Until the mother died of a recurrence of cancer, the lives of the father and daughter were also clouded......

"Until the daughter suddenly disappeared, with the father's investigation, layers of fog were gradually revealed......"

"How much investment do you need?" Ding Cheng listened to the director's thoughts and said seriously: "Is one million pounds enough?"

"No!" Anish was startled, quickly shook his head, and said embarrassedly: "I plan to shoot all 50,000." ”

Ding Cheng was stunned for a moment, smiled and patted the other party's shoulder, what are you waiting for?

sent away the excited director, and officially started filming two days later, except for himself, everyone else was an amateur. The male protagonist is a Chinese American in the United Kingdom, and like most fathers, he has a deep love for his daughter but does not know how to express it.

Usually strict with his daughter's life, but sometimes guilty, obviously extremely curious about her life but embarrassed to take the initiative to ask. Since his wife died of cancer, the gap between father and daughter has grown.

always thinks that the death of his wife is an eternal pain in the hearts of the two, so he tries to make the daughter gradually forget her mother by never mentioning it and cleaning up all traces left behind.

The daughter regards the memory of her mother as an important part of her life, hoping that her father can regain the same good life as before with her, but she is sensible and embarrassed to take the initiative to mention her mother when she sees her father's attitude.

Both of them are protecting each other in the best way they think they can, but they are awkwardly struggling alone and drifting apart in the pain of their lover's death......

The reason for taking this work is not only the script, it is also a very atypical and bizarre movie.

A movie that is presented on a computer screen from start to finish!

In other words, the audience is facing the screen as if it were their own computer desktop, and all the plot unfolding is transmitted through the changes that occur on the screen.

The director is definitely bold and innovative in visual expression, and it can be said that he is the first work to use electronic devices and technological products that have long been inseparable from life.

In my own opinion, the so-called innovation is by no means a flash of inspiration in the head, but requires careful observation and experience from daily life, and then the experience of using these technological products can be transformed into elements of the film narrative.

If the audience doesn't have the daily experience of using these products, then some of the details that the director and screenwriter have painstakingly designed that make people laugh or think about it are easy to overlook.

Many scenes of the script are just typed in the chat dialog, and before I could enter a sentence, the other party sent a new message, so I deleted the sentence I had just typed and typed a new sentence.

Before this sentence was sent, the other party sent another one first, so he deleted it and retyped. It was repeated several times before finally sending out a summary reply.

When you are very angry or very excited, you type a long message full of emotions and dozens or hundreds of words, but after thinking about it, you feel that it is inappropriate, and delete it one by one......

It's like video chatting with my mother, she has been nagging about the little problems and bad habits in your life, you listen absentmindedly while opening the webpage of a certain treasure, and suddenly my mother's soul blows: what do you look at with your eyes?

It's these details of life that can bring the story to life in a film's narrative, feel believable, and resonate with the audience.

Ding Cheng's biggest concern is: how to present them perfectly on the computer screen?

I have made so many works, tried all kinds of genres, and rarely innovated to make my eyes shine, but I didn't expect to meet a little-known British director?

Today, which is becoming more and more electronic, movies should also appear in a more electronic way of visual presentation, although the audience may not have seen such a movie before, but everyone is familiar with this kind of picture and can understand, and this kind of visual presentation innovation should be without obstacles.

Just like a child watching a cartoon for the first time, he can accept the use of montage without any obstacles, and can understand the broken time and the coherent story behind the picture.

In recent years, 3D movies have become popular, and more and more investors and filmmakers are trying to expand the realism of CG special effects and three-dimensional visual effects.

Many top directors would never have dreamed that the attempt to return to the two-dimensional will bring the audience a sense of real substitution no less than the visual role of realistic 3D scenes.

No, call Wang Fatzi and let him come and learn!
