Chapter 137: Observation
After the year, Su Qin's first job was the filming of "The Investigator".
The director of this movie is Fang Yixian, Su Qin couldn't help but be taken aback when she saw it, compared with the directors she knew before, Fang Yixian looked very young, and it was estimated that he was a few years older than Liu Jie.
Fang Yixian came with Chen Muyan, the actor of this movie, both of whom wore sunglasses and looked cool when they first got out of the car.
If it weren't for Fang Yixian's self-introduction, Su Qin would almost have thought that this was the actor of a certain role in the play.
Because it is a science fiction film, there is also a special effects team of Yunzhi Media, a subsidiary of Yunzhi Group, and the set is full of all kinds of computer equipment and instruments.
Su Qin is filming a science fiction film for the first time, and she is more curious about it, so she takes Ni Ying around to watch.
I don't know if it was Rong Yi who confessed, but the leader of the special effects team also came over to say hello.
"Is that what you President Rong said?" Su Qin couldn't help but ask.
"No, it's Assistant Yang who has made a special explanation. The other party's attitude was very polite: "There are many actions in this movie, Miss Su, please rest assured, we will check and confirm all safety measures again." ”
This is because Rong Yi was worried that he would have an accident during the shooting, so he specially ordered to explain, and after listening to Su Qin, he knew it in his heart.
When it was time to shoot, Su Qin changed into tights, and several female staff members of the special effects team pasted large and small electrodes on her, which were connected to a computer.
As if seeing Su Qin's curiosity, one of the female staff members explained with a smile: "This is a motion capture device, and your movements will be captured in detail by the computer to facilitate the production of special effects in the later stage." ”
In addition, the background of the shoot is a large green screen, empty of nothing.
All kinds of pictures seen after the film is made are added in post-production, so the shooting of science fiction films is actually like a stage play, the actors often have to talk to themselves in the air or objects that are simply props, and they have to imagine themselves at the same time, which is a test of acting skills.
But Su Qin has experience in drama practice and has shot three films, which are not very difficult for her now.
At the beginning, it was necessary to capture the action data of the main characters first, and after the staff pasted the electrodes, Su Qin walked to the front of the green screen as required and began to capture the movements.
This was a nearly two-hour project.
In addition to the movements, there are also micro-expressions to be captured, and when the special effects staff finally announced the end, Su Qin felt that he had done almost all the expressions.
The special effects crew quickly checked the data, and after passing it, they began to capture the other actors. This work alone will take a few days, not including the later data integration.
In the past, Su Qin only heard about how money was spent in the later stages of science fiction films, but after she saw it with her own eyes, she took it for granted.
followed by a makeup photo, in this movie, Su Qin plays a female police captain.
In order to match the image, she cut her hair short, combed her balls, and looked capable after applying makeup. After more than three months of fitness and martial arts practice, her figure is exquisite, but also full of strength.
The policeman's clothes are also designed to be futuristic clothes, Su Qin took it and touched it, it felt a bit like the texture of rubber, it seemed to have two layers, and there were various devices faintly inside.
"There are sensors in it, and all the data will be transmitted wirelessly while you are shooting," the staff explained. ”
Su Qin glanced at Fang Yixian, she felt the seriousness of this director, no wonder Chen Muyan would give up the costume movie "The Founding Emperor" and choose the filming of this sci-fi film.
Domestic science fiction films have always been very sluggish, in addition to the script and other factors, special effects are the most difficult technology to break through. And to achieve good special effects, in addition to technology, a large amount of money in the later stage is also necessary.
This is the reason why domestic investors are reluctant to invest in sci-fi film shooting, and it always feels a bit empty to throw money into something invisible, such as post-production.
Chen Muyan saw Su Qin's sighing look and asked, "Qinqin, what's wrong?"
"I'm wondering how Director Fang managed to convince investors to invest in this film. ”
"Hahaha," Chen Muyan said with a smile: "Actually, it's okay, the movie didn't have such a large scale, but it was rumored that after you took over, Yunzhi Media made additional investment." ”
"Yunzhi Media said that it was starting with this movie and preparing to open up the domestic special effects market," Chen Muyan looked at Su Qin's eyes with a little playfulness: "I see that you seem to be very familiar with them." ”
Su Qin couldn't help but touch his nose.
Chen Muyan didn't ask any more, and instead said: "So Fang Yixian is full of energy, ready to poke a hole in the domestic sci-fi market." ”
Although it is easy to watch, when it comes to actual shooting, it is still difficult to perform with imagination in front of non-existent things or props made of puppets.
Especially easy to laugh, even she, who has always been cold and serious, couldn't help but laugh when she said her lines several times.
"I'm sorry. ”
Fang Yixian didn't say anything, he had interned abroad in his early years and knew about this kind of shooting.
The real difficulty is to climb up and down, roll, and jump while hanging Weiya, in addition to lens capture, but also to combine the data collected by the computer to jointly judge whether it is qualified, so often an action needs to be repeated several times, and finally choose the best effect in the post-compositing.
Because the special effects of this movie are produced by Yunzhi Media, Rong Yi also brought Yang Li over from time to time to "inspect", saying that the company attaches great importance to the actual combat results of this team.
But everyone can see that the boss found Su Qin as soon as he came, and the intimacy between the two was obvious to everyone on the set.
Rong Yi is not afraid of the scandal at all, and Su Qin doesn't care either, which makes Ni Ying have to fight around.
The reason why Rong Yi came frequently was not only to see Su Qin, but also to be very concerned about her taking her own drugs developed in the United States.
"It works well. Originally, Su Qin had a strong resistance to the medicine given by Rong Yan, and after taking the new medicine given by Rong Yi, he felt much better, and Rong Yi only instructed to extend the number of days between taking it as much as possible.
But every time Rong Yi came to observe the shooting, he looked at Chen Muyan who was playing against Su Qin, and his eyes were always a little cold.
In the end, Chen Muyan really couldn't stand it: "Qinqin, you talk to your boyfriend, we say that this drama is the male and female protagonists, and there is no emotional drama." ”
