On October 24, the 24th day of the ninth lunar month of the Year of the Tiger, the solar term and frost fell. The frost didn't come, the rain came first.

The wind and rain were so strong that the whole crew could only hide in the room and prepare for filming.

Wu Xiaozu sorted out the script manuscript. On the TV, the lady also braved the rain to get off the plane, and I don't know who the rain and her brought coolness to Hong Kong Island.

He deliberately looked up at the Queen of England on TV. Then he glanced distressedly at Prince Charles, who was close behind.

There is a queen who has a super long standby, and Wu Xiaozu estimates that he wants to be the king in his life, and he is hanging. You should be ready to think about the next round.

"Big guy, off... Second Master Guan is here!"

Su Liyao commanded the staff to carry a statue of Guan Gong and walked in, "Special ...... I specially went to Wong Tai Sin to ask Mr. Feng Shui to open the light, it is very spiritual!" said and pointed to Fei Cheng beside him, "Do you talk about spirituality?"

"Spirit!" replied Fat Cheng gritted his teeth bitterly.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that he would speak indiscriminately.

"I don't know when this rain will end. It's really strange, when I filmed "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" begged for rain but didn't rain, this time the sun was shining and the rain kept falling. Assistant director Uncle Li looked at the pouring rain outside the door with embarrassment.

"Maybe God knows that Hong Kong Island is too dirty today, so maybe it will be cleaned on purpose. Su Liyao pointed to the enthusiastic Hong Kong and British officials on the TV and sneered, "A group of hypocritical guys." ”

"Pick! Then it's better to beg God, let him get off the blade. Hack those bastards to death!!"

Fei Cheng raised his middle finger and rolled his eyes, "God is blind, ......" said, folded his hands and bowed to Guan Gong, "It's better to worship Guan Er Ye than to ask God." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at the TV in unison. Breathe a sigh of relief.

If he really goes down the blade, Wu Xiaozu really has to consider whether it is more appropriate to offer his "big-breasted brother" to sell tickets for a visit. When the time comes, get the title of "Fat Dragon King", and it won't be bad.

The 1.2-meter brightly colored Guan Gong is placed in the main hall, wearing a green scarf, a parrot-colored green satin robe, a jade belt around the waist to hang a sword, and a flower boot. The green dragon glaive is at his side. The phoenix's eyes were half-narrowed, looking at the storm outside the door.

In "Bone Field (Massage Parlor)", after the crew quietly put on the incense, "The Birth of a Personbone" was quietly and shamefully started.

……

"The scene was quiet, the field was cleared, and now the personnel are leaving. Attention to all units, the actors are admitted. Props on standby, makeup, tea on standby!"

Uncle Li carried the walkie-talkie, "Audition, 123,321-" and then began to determine one department after another, and the whole process seemed very cumbersome and careful.

"Stand 1 is OK!"

"Stand 2 OK!"

"Number 3 OK. ”

"The lights are fine!"

"Radio OK!"

"The cast is ready—"

As the heads of various departments reached out or confirmed OK through the walkie-talkie, the scene reporter carried a clapperboard with the scene, curtain and the number of shots, and stood in front of the main camera that had turned on the red light, waiting for the director to call to start.

Seeing Wu Xiaozu waving his hand, the field notes immediately played the board.

"The first shot of the first scene of the 15th scene of "Word Head", Action-" clicked, knocked lightly, and officially started filming.

Wu Xiaozu stood in front of the monitor and looked at the settings of several camera positions.

The camera represents the viewpoint and composition. The director's intention to shoot the film is expressed through the change of camera position. Each camera is set up to include the photographer's understanding of the film and the lens.

Huang Yuetai is in charge of the No. 1 camera position, shooting on parallel axes, and is responsible for frontal composition. At 45° behind him, camera 2 captures the figure walking out of the room. The No. 3 camera is mounted on a swingarm and can be used to shoot panoramic shots.

This kind of embedded structure belongs to the most basic triangular principle. The three axes represent three viewpoints. Makes up the entire shooting range. When an actor walks out of this range, it is a blind spot in shooting. The commonly known is out of the play.

Black clouds overheaded, and heavy rain poured. The whole street looks like the end of the world.

The dark alleys, the houses on both sides are mottled and dilapidated, but the layers of bamboo poles and roofs make the rain much less here.

Liu Qingyun slowly walked in from the entrance of the alley, and his face was brightly lit. Below the nose, you can see clearly, and your eyes seem to be hidden in shadows. Holding a black umbrella in his hand, his feet stepped on puddles and splashed.

"Crunch—"

As he got closer, the light became clearer and clearer, and he could be seen with a straight face.

The thick eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the whites of his eyes stared diagonally downward. Depressed and preoccupied.

In front of him, Huang Yuetai has been carrying Steadicam for filming. Because the alley was littered with debris, the assistant couldn't get started. He was the only one who could hold the Steadicam and the machine. Sweaty face.

The roads in the alley are uneven, puddles everywhere, and there are piles of disorderly piles, so there is no way to lay slide rails, so you can only choose to shoot by hand. This is really a test of the photographer's basic skills. Many photographers never learn to shoot with a hand in their lifetime.

For portable shooting, the videographer can't shoot without oxygen, because he can't last a long time. The rhythm of breathing and the amplitude of the hand must be pinched very precisely.

Huang Yuetai was known as the "Iron Hand" in his early years. In the era without Steadicam, it was even more remarkable with one pair of hands!

There are really no photographers in Hong Kong who dare to say that they surpass Huang Yuetai in technology, but I am afraid there is not one. There are only a handful of people in the future who can be compared.

"Awesome—"

Luo Liamath and Uncle Li leaned over and secretly gave a thumbs up. Professionals in the film industry admire experts the most with real skills. Film films focus most on the basics.

One director a year, one photographer every five years.

It takes at least five years for a photographer to go from apprentice to real director of photography.

Liu Weiqiao is a model of both talent and famous teachers in this industry. How long did it take to go from the small worker of "Eighteen Weapons" directed by Liu Jiayu to the director of photography of "The Butcher on a Rainy Night"?

He survived for five and a half years.

Thinking of this, Wu Xiaozu glanced at the young and sturdy Luo Lixian beside him and smiled slightly. In order to have a bad habit that he "cultivated" in his heart, he arranged to give Luo Liyuan the title of assistant director. Let him learn behind Uncle Li.

In Wu Xiaozu's team, there are two top masters in photography: Huang Yuetai and Liu Weiqiang. The lighting is convenient, and Zou Lin is dazzling enough. But the action and stunts have been lackluster.

In fact, it is not that he is facing such a dilemma, many directors have such a dilemma. Nowadays, most of the action and stunt talents on Hong Kong Island have been monopolized by several major teams such as the Yuan family class, the Hong family class, the Liu family class, and the family class. If you want to really open a big-scene movie, you must invite several big teams.

On the contrary, Luo Liyuan is very talented and bold in this regard. The most important thing is that he is brave enough. Whether it's for future filming or to discover talents, Wu Xiaozu has no reason not to mention Luo Liamaranth.

As a director, his talent is average. But in terms of action, stunts, explosives, gunpowder, flying cars, etc., Luo Liamaran really has a set.

Huang Yuetai filmed well, and Liu Qingyun acted very well.

The whole scene is just a few steps.

Walking seems like a simple action, but many people forget how to walk in front of the camera.

The class of body belongs to the basic skills of actors, and it is as basic as lines.

In ancient times, the act of drama was called a figure, and a gesture was all drama.

The emphasis is: raise your hands to your eyebrows, arch your hands to your chest, and hold your hands like holding the moon, pointing your hands to your nose. The test is the hands, eyes, body, method, and steps. For example, Mr. Mei hasn't opened his mouth yet, but he just has a cloud hand, and as soon as the orchid is sent, it will be full of charm, and the shyness will come out.

The same goes for acting. The mouth and body shape are the foundation of the foundation. The common problem of Hong Kong Island actors is that they have a poor foundation. From the king to the queen of heaven, this is the case.

encounters good talent and good luck, such as Liang Chaowei, and after accumulating experience in several dramas, the foundation will be consolidated. Another example is Chen Guanxi, a drama is a progress, if it weren't for ***, with the state and talent he showed at that time, he might become an actor of Liang Chaowei's level.

When Liu Weiqiao was interviewed, he talked about filming "Infernal Affairs", and he felt that there was a scene that Chen Guanxi portrayed more accurately than Liu Dehua. is to look back at the scene where Chen Yongren was kicked out of the police academy.

If you meet someone with average talent - such as Liu Dehua.

Andy didn't shoot until the 95th drama before he finally got rid of the flat character creation, abandoned the routine of playing cool and handsome, and won the Golden Statue actor with "Dark War".

turned into a butterfly, and was really praised by others, Andy can act.

Acting is like building a building, and the foundation is very important when creating a character. The body and mouth are the foundation of the actor.

The foundation is unstable and it is difficult to build high. Unless you have enough resources to splurge on.
