Chapter 118: Lipstick
No matter how disturbed the outside world was, the filming of "Avatar" was not affected in the slightest, and it was still steadily speeding up, moving forward step by step, shot by shot.
A group of actors were so abrasively filmed that they lost the slightest temper.
However, this kind of grinding new technology back and forth day after day has made Sun Yuting, who originally had limited confidence in this technology, begin to become more and more interested.
Of course, no matter how interested she is, she is only an apprentice now.
Because whether it is the technology of 3D shooting or the mastery of motion capture technology, although the technology is easy to master and easy to become proficient, the new art brought by the new technology is not so easy to get the essence for a while.
Ordinary 2D cameras, and even cameras, in fact, the principle is basically the same, about this piece of photography technology, including the use of light, including the mastery of angles, etc., this is all the predecessors have studied for dozens or hundreds of years, Shuntian Film Academy as a palace-level institution, the internal teachers are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and the students who teach them are, of course, they all have a few brushes, Sun Yuting, or Fu Xuelong, including Li Qian, are all students of the same level, but even Sun Yuting, a student of the directing department, has systematically studied photography, and the standard is certainly not bad, and even to some extent, the three of them are outstanding。
But 3D photography is a different concept.
New technology will always bring new rules of use, and new rules of use will give rise to new art.
The same lens, the angle and light used in 2D shooting, and the depth of field of photography mastered for the visual enjoyment of the audience, and the attention paid to 3D shooting, can be summed up by a slight difference - a lens, 2D shooting, very good, but if 3D is still that angle, that fill light, it will be dark when shot, and the 3D effect is extremely poor.
In fact, to put it bluntly, this is one of the important reasons why many so-called 3D in later generations have not spent much money, but the 3D effect is very unsatisfactory - new technology is available, but it does not mean that you can use it immediately, let alone use it very well.
This is all something that needs to be adjusted a little bit, summarized a little bit, and mastered a little bit.
Although everyone is a novice, no one has more experience than anyone else in the face of 3D photography technology, but it is obvious that out of a genius photographer's sensitivity to imaging, Fu Xuelong is the only one who can always follow Li Qian's requirements, and even can always propose new shooting plans, which makes Li Qian's shooting amazing!
Therefore, they are the two people at the forefront of the entire 3D shooting team, Sun Yuting doesn't care how unconvinced she is, she has to admit in this crew that she can only be regarded as the second sequence.
So, recently, she has been looking for opportunities to repair Fu Fatzi.
Although the fat man is still smiling, he also feels a little confused by the second monk.
In fact, he didn't understand it at all, the root cause was just his acumen and genius, which made Sun Yuting feel like "he had fallen behind" for the first time.
You must know that in terms of genius, she has always regarded herself as "Li Qian's first lady and second wife".
But fortunately, when the time entered June, the crew of "Avatar", which had been filming for nearly three months, under the leadership of Li Qian, had begun to get a first glimpse of the path, and with the accumulation of experience, the little difference in photography talent between Sun Yuting and Fu Xuelong was quickly erased.
In many cases, Sun Yuting, the assistant director, can already draw inferences from one case and often put forward some creative shooting plans - when it comes to the level of director, Fu Xuelong is much worse than her.
Although Li Qian has watched "Avatar" countless times, it is impossible to remember every shot of the movie, including the depth of field, lighting, etc. behind each shot, so the script ensures that there is no problem, and the setting of Pandora is no problem, but how to shoot each shot, brainstorming like this, and finally letting him, a more experienced director who has seen the original version, make the decision, is one of the ways he is most likely to make this "new movie" well.
At the same time, you can also try your best to train the world's earliest skilled 3D shooting team in advance - in the future, after the filming of "Avatar" is completed, this team will be scattered and sent out, and Minghu Culture can form two or three skilled 3D shooting teams in an instant.
In the next few years, once "Avatar" can expect to be a big hit, these people will be the trump card in the hands of Minghu Culture - think about how the audience flocked to 3D in the two years when 3D was just popular in another time and space, and how James Cameron and his 3D shooting team made crazy money with this unique technology, Li Qian was impressed.
Every time a new technology emerges and is successfully promoted, it heralds the arrival of a big change!
And what is change?
To put it bluntly, some people or groups have come to power, while some people and groups have retreated.
…………
One day in early June, Lu Lingxi drove alone to the film and television city to visit the class.
When she walked into the set, she was dressed as an urban beauty, the weather outside was getting hot, the sun was dazzling, and she deliberately wore sunglasses, but what was different from before was that she put on lipstick again today - although the choice was still a very ordinary color, not too bright. But everyone is too familiar, Sun Yuting, who has been obsessed with mastering 3D shooting skills recently, "tsk" as soon as she saw her coming, "So beautiful, old deer, why do I think you have been more and more tender in the past six months?"
Everyone was studying at Shuntian Film Academy, Li Qian and Fu Xuelong were students of the photography department, and Lu Lingxi was their teacher and department head, although everyone occasionally shouted "Lao Lu" behind their backs, but they didn't dare to shout in person, of course, Sun Yuting didn't dare to shout like this at that time, after all, Sun Yuting also took their public classes.
But then they graduated, Lu Lingxi also entered Minghu after resigning, everyone is a colleague, and often mixes a crew, plus because of Li Qian's existence, Lu Lingxi has been deliberately downplaying his identity as a teacher of these people, Sun Yuting first got her thoughts, and began to call her "old deer" at every turn, Lu Lingxi was not annoyed, and after that, it gradually became natural.
Of course, the number of people who shout is still limited.
Sun Yuting, Han Shunzhang, Jin Han and a few others.
Fu Xuelong and they are still more accustomed to calling her Teacher Lu to show respect, even Li Qian often calls Teacher Lu, otherwise it is Director Lu, saying that he did not forget the grace of teaching because he is the boss. In fact, Sun Yuting called her "Lao Lu", many times out of jokes, only Han Shunzhang and Jin Han, the two junior brothers and brothers, are really called so casually.
Lu Lingxi smiled when he heard this, and took off his sunglasses - when Li Qian heard Sun Yuting's words and turned around, what he saw was exactly this scene, and he suddenly felt that compared to when he went back to help her watch the film at the end of April, her style had added a little more - Walking towards Sun Yuting and Li Qian, she smiled and said: "I'm old, I haven't married yet, I can't compare with your little girl, I can only clean up and strive to be a few years younger." ”
When a woman laughs at herself like this, it is best for a man not to answer, so no one responded at the scene, and Li Qian just smiled. But at this time, Sun Yuting "tsk" a few more times, turned her head to glance at Li Qian, but said to Lu Lingxi: "Do you want me to help you shout on the blog, and say that our thirteenth aunt is going to get married?"
Lu Lingxi rolled her eyes, didn't bother to pay attention to her, walked over, looked at the set for a while, and asked, "How's the progress? Is it really going to be filmed for ten months?"
Sun Yuting shrugged her shoulders and said, "Almost! It's awesome to be able to advance half a month in advance!"
After a pause, she couldn't help but complain, "This motion capture is too grinding......!"
Lu Lingxi smiled and said, "But the last two times Li Qian went back to help me watch the film, he praised you, saying that you don't want to be too serious, you have been obsessed with new technologies recently!
Hearing Li Qian boast that he was obsessed with new technology, Sun Yuting was faintly happy in her heart, and for a while she felt embarrassed to continue complaining, so she had to shrug her shoulders.
Finally, Lu Lingxi looked at Li Qian brightly.
But before she could speak, Li Qian had already spoken first, and said, "Since you're here, let's stay for a while, let's continue filming first, and we'll talk at lunchtime." Prepare for the next ......"
Lu Lingxi pursed his lips when he heard this.
But at this time, Li Qian actually looked back at her again, suddenly smiled, and said, "This dress is very beautiful, and the lipstick is very good!"
Lu Lingxi smiled, didn't speak, and picked up his pocket.
…………
When I went to the restaurant to eat at noon, the drama staff helped to bring two meals, and after a while, Sun Yuting also came over with her own dinner plate, and the three of them gathered around a table to eat first.
However, Lu Lingxi had a small amount of rice, and after eating a few bites slowly, Sun Yuting glanced at her and asked, "Why do you eat less and less?"
Lu Lingxi smiled, "I'm almost a hundred pounds, I really dare not eat it!"
She is about one meter six or eight tall, in Li Qian's opinion, a hundred catties is not too much, but she seems to care about this, women, persuading people to eat more is very offensive, so he shut up and continued to eat.
Sun Yuting habitually picked out the two pieces of fat meat from her dinner plate, threw them into Li Qian's dinner plate, and then knocked her own plate with chopsticks, saying, "I just ate like this, and I finally ate another ninety catties recently." ”
Lu Lingxi smiled when he heard this, opened the bottle of pure water and took a sip, but did not speak.
Sun Yuting is a sports maniac, and she is active by nature, and she is staying in the crew to film at the moment, and her daily consumption is very large, of course, she can't get fat. But in contrast, Lu Lingxi is a little lazy, and she usually doesn't like to sweat too much, so she can only choose to eat less to keep in shape.
Only when she herself is also filming, will she eat a little more, after all, the consumption is too large at that time, and if she doesn't eat too much, she will starve to death.
Of course, her current focus is not on Sun Yuting's words, she just noticed Sun Yuting's action of putting meat on Li Qian's plate - in fact, as early as when everyone was still in Shuntian Film Academy, they had eaten together many times, and at that time she had already found out that Sun Yuting liked to eat with Li Qian and like to throw fat on his plate, but when she noticed it at that time, she just smiled in her heart.
Now, it's a little more complicated than it was then.
Lu Lingxi finished eating in five minutes, Sun Yuting finished eating in more than ten minutes, but Li Qian still didn't finish eating.
So, the two girls chatted casually about topics such as weight loss, but they both paid attention to the progress of Li Qian's meal, you know, when she was in the middle of eating just now, Sun Yuting had already gotten up to help Li Qian get another meal.
Finally, Li Qian finished eating.
Lu Lingxi smiled, looked at him, and casually told a joke, "I was repairing the film that day, Cao Ye walked around, and when I asked him to help me watch the film, I casually asked him about the "Kung Fu Panda", I listened to the setting and asked Cao Ye, Ah Bao is so edible, is it Li Qian set according to himself, Cao Ye laughed when he heard it." ”
Sun Yuting laughed when she heard this.
Li Qian smiled helplessly and said, "If I can't eat, I'll be hungry!"
After ridiculing, Sun Yuting also smiled, stood up, habitually put away the plates of the three people, and said, "Let's talk, I'll go back to the studio first." Then he took four plates and walked away.
When she walked away, there was no one sitting at the nearby table, and everyone had eaten more or less at this time, and it was even more empty.
The manager of the restaurant had vision, and when he saw that Aunt Thirteen came to visit the class, and the two of them had no intention of leaving after eating, he stepped on Sun Yuting's heel and came over with a pot of chrysanthemum tea, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, Director Lu, it's hot, drink a pot of chrysanthemum tea, clear the heat and go to the fire!"
Li Qian nodded, and Lu Lingxi said, "Thank you, Lao Liu."
Manager Liu replied with a smile, "It's all as it should be!", put down the teatray as he spoke, picked up the teapot, poured water on both cups, and then turned around and walked away.
Looking at her back, Lu Lingxi smiled and said, "This old Liu is very good at being a person. ”
Li Qian smiled, took out the pipe in his pocket, opened the tobacco box, kneaded some tobacco into it, pressed it flat, and lit it - looking at the smoke on his side, Lu Lingxi stared seriously, and then suddenly said: "Do you know? The last part of the domestic footage was the first time I filmed in this film and television city, and I only stayed for three days in total, and by the next day, he had already found out that I didn't like to eat those greasy dishes, and in the evening of the next day, he specially opened a small stove for me and made two servings of vegetable fried. ”
Li Qian smiled, "Are you complaining?
Lu Lingxi rolled his eyes when he heard this.
