Chapter 586: The trailer is out
Smoky, mountains of cigarette butts, empty Red Bull cans, crackling mouse and keyboard, and liver-bursting programmers.
Film post-production.
One sounds like that's quite a lofty profession.
But.
In reality, it's no different from an otaku.
Star City is their name, full of fame, and it is known as Huaxia Light and Magic, and its strength can be seen.
Since taking over the post-production of Qinghe's "The Last Days" movie a few years ago, 80% of the company's resources have been dispatched to the entire project, and not only that, but also specially invited several experts from abroad.
The other party said that the effect must be on the same level as Hollywood blockbusters, money... Not a problem.
Director Su Yan provided detailed storyboard hand drawings, but there was no use, of course, at the beginning.
The picture he wanted was very different from the one he produced.
This is to be expected.
"There are two trees in front of my house, one is a date tree and the other is also a date tree. β
Although the teacher gave many profound and connotative interpretations, Su Yan has always believed that the view of the network in the later period is the most correct.
When Lu Xun put pen to paper, he drank too much.
I remembered that there were two trees, so I wrote: "There are two trees in front of the front door of my house, one is a date tree. β
Writing this, Lu Xun suddenly couldn't remember what the other tree was, so he put on his slippers and went to the door to take a look.
Two jujube trees.
There are only 3 pieces of manuscript paper at home, and I tore up the rewrite to affect the inspiration, and gritted my teeth.
"The other is also a date tree. β
No matter how good the hand-drawn storyboard is, the understanding will go wrong, even if Su Yan is holding the explanation on the side, the picture that appears in everyone's mind is different.
Fortunately, there are many people in Star City and many computers, so he can make different plans for him to choose, and after running-in, the director's needs are gradually clear, and there are fewer and fewer places that need to be modified, and the speed is getting faster and faster.
On February 10th, Su Yan edited the first version of the promotional video.
In the pond of ink painting style, a few pieces of green grass, plus a lotus, the water droplets fall, and after a burst of ripples, the four big characters of "Qinghe Impression" appear.
The screen goes black.
The music played,
Long and sad.
thunder
lightning
It allows people to look down and understand everything in the night.
The walls are in ruins, the walls are devastated, and everything that once sheltered under them is being destroyed in the collapse.
The original city avenue became muddy and overgrown.
The side vehicles are only frames,
All kinds of signboards are hung in the air,
Street lights have long since lost their role,
The faint lights in the dilapidated buildings, as well as the fires in the corners, prove that there are still humans living here.
And in the middle of the city, a huge semi-circular bunker, is so different.
"Quack!"
The camera turned.
A crow is standing on a trash can,
"Whew, whew. β
The sound of suppressed breathing,
musical variation,
No longer sad, but nervous.
The camera zooms out, a few meters away from the corner,
Two young men and women, plus a child with a broken arm, were trying to hide their bodies,
Sharply undulating chest,
Sweat slid down his dark face,
See,
They are tired,
They are hungry,
They're scared.
There was silence in the darkness,
The only one can hear,
The sound of their breathing.
"Bang dang!"
With a loud bang,
The expressions on the faces of the three of them became terrifying,
The boy directly carried the girl with the broken arm on his shoulder,
They began to flee,
Walk through the abandoned parking lot,
Run past empty supermarkets, apartment buildings, shopping malls...
finally
In the midst of panic,
The three of them stepped into the air at the same time,
Fell into the sewer.
The screen goes black again.
"The Last Days"
Director Su Yan.
On May 1, it will be released nationwide.
The 80-second promotional video will be launched on the whole network at the same time.
Portals, videos, and e-ticketing platforms.
At the same time, the promotional posters were placed in nearly 40 theaters such as Wanda, Dadi, ZTE, and China Film.
Bus subway stations in first-tier cities are no exception.
Guo Hangyu covered his abdomen, with blood stains on his face, his eyes were resolute, he was half-bent over and looking ahead, and the other hand was protecting Tilor beside him, Liu Chutian hid between the two, his expression was very scared.
In the background is a dark city and a huge white bunker.
That's right, Su Yan is throwing coins.
Crazy coin sprinkling.
The days when the aroma of wine was not afraid of deep alleys are long gone.
In order to cooperate with the first wave of publicity, 20 million were directly smashed.
But in fact, it was not Su Yan who decided all this, but Lao Wang, and Qinghe Xuan.
In terms of the later stage, the time was determined, that is, the beginning of April to ensure that it was 100% completed, and a detailed plan was made quickly, and I only needed to cooperate.
The aim is naturally on May 1st, and in the current situation, it is more beneficial to "The Last Days".
Four known films were released at the same time, and one was produced in Hollywood.
Among them, Qian Yu's "Spring and Summer" is regarded as the biggest competitor, after all, the fifth-generation leader and the configuration of dual-traffic stars have made many media in the industry begin to tout.
As for "Black Shadow", when it was released in North America, it had a box office of more than 70 million, an IMBA score of 5.9, and a Rotten Tomatoes index of 43%.
The other three are small cost.
May Day is no longer a traditional Golden Week, there are only three days of holidays, and many bigwigs are willing to wait.
And "The Last Days" has the highest investment among the six movies, and the attention is the same, so after the release of the promotional film, many film critics commented as soon as they watched it.
"I can only say that not everyone can play movies, especially the theme of the end of the world, there are not many in China, but what I see is Hollywood-style shooting methods, grand special effects, rich and capricious..."
"The music is very good, and the camera sense is also good, but, after watching the promotional video, I don't know what kind of movie this is at all, running headless and brainless, I don't want any worldview, but I don't even have a line, what I want to express, I can't understand..."
"Make a bold guess, the city after the disaster, the protagonist who fled in a panic, plus the name of the movie Apocalypse, is either a zombie or a robot, and the final ending, normally the male protagonist is sacrificed, the female protagonist and the child are rescued, and it is difficult to get a new story, it is very difficult, clichΓ©..."
These comments are already very polite, it is normal for film critics to have a poisonous mouth, and many of them directly spray Su Yan's body without skin, which is useless.
That's what they eat.
Even those movies that have a good reputation and a box office hit after they are released, they are all right.
The plot, the costumes, the acting, the colors, the logic, all the elements of the movie, there is nothing that cannot be said.
Even Zhang Yimou, Lu Chuan, these seniors are not spared.
Therefore, Su Yan looked very open, he was a rookie, it was normal to be scolded, if everyone came over to lick the dog, it would be to see if the sun came out in the west.
When Lao Hu saw the report, he wanted to comfort him, but he saw Su Yan and Huang Lei sitting together talking and laughing.
"You're not nervous at all?"
"Does nervousness make things better? β
"No, it won't. β
"That's it. Su Yan poured him a cup of tea: "The movie has been filmed, it's okay or not, and I don't have to worry about the post-publicity, do my best, and obey the destiny of God." β
Hu Shuai sat down: "Are you just watching a movie that people slander you?"
"We can also pray. Su Yan made a joke: "Whether the movie is good or not, what you say doesn't count, what I say doesn't count, and what these film critics say doesn't count, only the audience has the right to speak, and there are fewer movies they sing." β
Huang Lei agreed: "It's a good thing that someone pays attention and someone scolds, if no one pays attention to it at all, it's terrible, and if you don't read the comments of netizens, it's completely different." β
As he spoke, he turned the notebook in front of him in a different direction.
This is the message below the official blog, you can take a look. β
It seems that before he came in, the two of them were also paying attention to this matter.
"I've watched the promotional video eight times, is there any, the immediate sense of Resident Evil, looking forward to it. β
"Guo Hangyu is so handsome, it's rare to find a few stars who obviously have good looks and rely on their acting skills to eat, so is it fighting monsters?"
"The feeling of Hollywood blockbusters, it seems that these hundreds of millions are not spent in vain, and I am still worried that it is a five-cent special effect. β
"As a fan of Tilrol, I don't owe Su Yan movie tickets, but they did attract me. β
"I hope it's not like game CG, where you put all your money on a promo, but it turns out to be shit. β
left a message on the front article, and the old Hu swept it roughly, with mixed reviews, but it was more objective than the so-called film critics.
Cover your computer and take a sip of tea.
"If you need help, just say it, I'm still looking forward to this movie making me a little bit of a wife. β
Su Yan smiled: "Don't worry, when you're busy, you also make a cameo, by the way, what's the situation with your movie?"
"It will be released a month before you, and I will have to go to South Korea in two days..."
"Oh..." Huang Lei and Su Yan both made teasing sounds.
"It's really going to work, Irene has a concert in Malaysia, not in Korea. As soon as Lao Hu finished speaking, he looked at their eyes and knew that he was wrong.
"Oh, not in Korea, who?"
"I don't know, I didn't ask him why he was so proactive. β
"There's a ghost in my heart. β
"I think so. β
"Alright, alright. Lao Hu hurriedly changed the topic: "Where is your daughter-in-law?"
"The crew is doing the post-production stage, and there is still a lot of finishing work, to say that Lao Mouzi is still powerful, a TV series with 40 episodes and an investment of more than 100 million is simply terrible. β
Huang Lei doesn't think so.
"It's not a simple thing to ask him to make a TV series now, let alone more than a billion yuan, even if you add a 0, someone will wave a check and come over, and the strength is there.
If this movie is successful, and you want to make it in the future, it is estimated that as long as Lao Wang releases a rumor, the matter of funds will be solved. β
Su Yan thought so: "Besides, in fact, my expectations are not high, as long as I can make a little money, don't let Lao Hu fall into the tongue in the future." β
"......" Hu Shuai
(Thanks for the reward of the love white, by the way, the 28th will start to double the monthly pass...) It doesn't have anything to do with me, though)
