Chapter 814: Editing of "Operation Red Sea".
A not lively Spring Festival file came to an end, and Tang An had no time to pay attention, and he devoted himself to the editing of "Operation Red Sea" from the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.
Every film, the cinematography, lighting, and color tones have a tone, and different ways can determine what a film looks like.
The same is true for editing, different movies have different editing styles, you must first determine the style, determine the style of the whole movie,
"Operation Red Sea" doesn't have much to think about, starting from determining the partial authenticity of the movie, it can only be a sharp editing style.
It is often used in many action movies, such as Michael Bay's early action films, such as the "Spy" series.
"Operation Red Sea" needs to use fast and various camera transitions to express the reality of the war and create a suitable sense of tension.
Coupled with the vocals, music, storyline advancement, and restraint of the characters' emotions, etc., this brings a sense of oppression, giving the audience a sense of immersion and a stronger sense of substitution.
Fast lens switching, panorama, close-up, first-person view, subjective view, overhead shot, follow-up shot, upward shot, and also use a wide-angle lens.
Anyway, on the basis of not making the audience dizzy and not recognizing the actors, try to cut it as fast as possible.
After all, the two-hour set is still in 3D, and some viewers are not comfortable with it, and their eyes will be uncomfortable.
After all, movies are for the audience, and the audience's viewing experience must be considered.
More than ten years ago, there was a crime movie "Irrevocable" starring Monica Bellucci, the heroine of "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", which did not consider the feelings of the audience at all.
Almost every scene in this film is a shot to the end, without splitting the shot, in the middle of the scene, the camera is rotated and turned, the camera is still shaking, and the people watching are dizzy and very depressed.
One shot is awesome in the end, but the director is showing off his skills, and to put it mildly is pretending to be forced.
Even the names of the producers and actors at the beginning of the film are all reversed, and most of the camera is rotating.
This patronizes the dress force, without considering the feelings of ordinary viewers at all.
"Operation Red Sea" is a 100% commercial film, so it is natural to consider the audience.
The war scenes are too real, too bloody, and the footage is sharply edited, which will inevitably be a little uncomfortable.
In addition to putting pressure on the audience, it is also necessary to relieve pressure on the audience, there will be street battles, sniper battles, tank chase battles and other lines at the same time.
Another example is the scene where Xu Hong, Shi and Tong Li are surrounded in the tulou, which is not tragic.

Xu Hong's left arm was blown off, Tong Li's spirit was about to collapse, and then the stone's throat was pierced, at this time, the strong emotions had reached their peak, and the scene was bloody, which made the audience feel very depressed, after all, the audience was replaced by the Jiaolong Brigade.
This should be interspersed and cut together, so as not to give the audience too much time to think and react.
In the later stage of the soundtrack, the music and gunfire should also be slowly weakened, and the vocals should be strengthened and slowed down a little.
In the end, Tong Li's heart-wrenching cry was able to vent all her emotions, and at the same time gave the audience a good stress relief and a complete emotional release.
These are very critical, otherwise once they are not handled well, too many negative emotions will accumulate in the hearts of the audience, which will be too depressing, which may even lead to the box office being cut in half.
Feng Xiaogang's two movies of similar genre, "Tangshan Earthquake" and "1942", have such a big gap in box office because the audience's feelings are completely different after watching these two movies.
Although the previous one was a disaster movie, "Tangshan Earthquake" gave people a stronger shock to the warm heart, and they will be moved after watching it.
And "1942" revealed the scars, but there was no good ending, and my heart was even more depressed, and I was moved by P.
The core of commercial tragedy is moving, no matter how tragic the life of the protagonist of the film is, the most important thing is to move the audience.
If you want the box office, you have to focus on the needs of the audience, so some directors who have proven themselves at the box office have begun to be reasonable and humane, because they are no longer audience-centric.
Naturally, he was also taught to be a man by the audience.
Although Tang An doesn't need to prove himself at the box office, he is not yet old, and he doesn't have so many big truths and life insights to talk about.
It's not that I graduated from a film school class, I didn't learn those artistic things, I don't need the recognition of the "mainstream film circle", those "seniors" do what they like to do, they love to scold, and they don't care at all.
......
The group has nothing important, and they will naturally do the listing of several of its companies, and there is nothing to care about in terms of investment and film and television production.
Tang An has been staying in the editing room since the New Year, editing his own movies himself.
Every movie is like a director's child, but any director who has a little editing skills will edit it himself, and if he can't do it, he will participate and give opinions at all times.
After staying in the editing room for 20 days, Tang An stopped what he was doing and went to attend the 6th Directors Guild Awards Ceremony.
I hung up the name of vice president of the association, and I took a day to support it when I had time.
That is, go out for a walk, relax your mood, and make soy sauce by the way.
For the real soy sauce, it was Tang An's turn to be the chairman of the final review committee, and Feng Xiaogang, who is also the vice president, became the chairman once last year.
However, Tang Anke didn't have the time to spare, the chairman of the final jury would forget it, just be a final jury and vote for two votes.
When I came to the venue, it was not too lively, after all, it was not as hot as the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers, and even worse than the popularity of the College Student Film Festival.
There are a lot of industry insiders at the scene, after all, it is the Directors Association Award, and the nominations are selected by more than 300 directors of the association, and there are many directors who come to the scene.
Several big directors came, and naturally some of the actors came.
Zhang Hongsen, director of the Film Bureau, attended on behalf of Optoelectronics, and Kang Pei, Wang Zhongjun, Yu Dong, and Fan Luyuan also came.
"Forest Bureau. β
Tang An walked over and said hello to Zhang Hongsen, and then said hello to the others.
"Kang Dong, Wang Dong, Fan Dong...... You busy people are here too. β
"Huh. Wang Zhongjun smiled, "How can we have Tang Dong, you are busy, such a big company, you still have to make movies." β
Yu Dong asked, "How is Tang Dong's "Red Sea Operation" doing, this summer vacation is coming in a blink of an eye." β
"It's okay, there is still half a month to finish the editing, and the soundtrack, dubbing, and special effects can be completed on time, and there will definitely be no problem with the summer file. Tang An smiled.
Zhang Hongsen said, "You will send a copy for review as soon as you finish it, we all want to see what the military movie you make looks like." β
"Of course, we must check it with the leader as soon as possible. β
Military films, or wars abroad, there are too many places that need to be reviewed, and they must be submitted for review as soon as possible to prevent problems in all aspects.
chatting casually, Fan Luyuan mentioned the Spring Festival stalls that had just passed.
"This year's Spring Festival stalls are a little deserted, only "Aomen Fengyun" broke one billion, even if Tang Dong's "Wolf Totem" seems to stop at the threshold of 700 million. β
Tang An was not too surprised when someone said about this film, the film you want to sell will eventually sell at the box office, and it will inevitably be ridiculed.
It's better to change to someone else, after all, no matter who has looked away, it's not strange.
But Tang An has not lost his eyes on the movies he has fancied for so many years.
This time, the film that was about to be sold sold was a big hit, which was the first time, and it was also a good opportunity that outsiders couldn't find for a few years.
Sure enough, as soon as Fan Luyuan's voice fell, Kang Pei spoke immediately.
"Hehe, in fact, Tang Dong didn't expect this movie to sell so high at the box office, and he thought that the investment share of $8 million in Tang Dong's hands would be sold to me for 6 million.
Kang Pei looked like I had already seen through everything, and then smiled, "But I thought that I couldn't let Tang Dong suffer, so I didn't agree, and now the movie is really a big hit." β
