At the same time as the studio was dissolved, the experience of the big film companies in the production of commercial films seemed to disappear. However, rather than disappearing, it should be described as a search from scratch in the new era.

After all, as the times progressed, so did many things.

How to find that balance between the old and the new, and how to deal with the impact of television and videotape on the film market, these are all things that need to be explored little by little.

Especially after the bubble era, the bursting of the bubble, and the devastating earthquake in Japanese society, the whole spirit is completely different from that of the positive "golden age".

For example, "living a good life through hard work" is the ideal, and in the past, everyone was indeed working hard towards this goal, and there were many movies with similar themes.

But in the bubble economy, everyone thinks about "how to make a good living through speculation". By the time the bubble burst in the 90s, among young people, I am afraid that it was already a state of "love is over".

In today's era, it is impossible to gain the approval of this generation if you shoot anything to "live a good life through hard work".

The Japanese film industry has collapsed and every year's box office report comes out, some people say this, but when the next year's report comes out, people find out that the box office of the previous year is not the worst.

However, it would be too arbitrary to assert that Japanese films are finished because of poor box office. In fact, every year, regardless of the box office, there are masterpieces.

That said, there are some consolation prizes to be attached to such statements.

Movies are the art of burning money, and it is almost impossible to find such a thing as "good quality and low price" in movies. Without a Japanese film with a large investment, it will be difficult to make a "blockbuster".

However, "the weeds in the crevices of the stone also have their own way of survival", and there are also shooting methods with little money, and in this state where you have to find a way to save money because of lack of funds, you may make something interesting by mistake.

If the subject matter of the movie is the art of "ideals" and "nightmares", then in this era, the search for the various possibilities between ideals and nightmares is also what people who devote themselves to filmmaking are seeking in the era in which Ye Zhao lives.

As far as the theme of "love" is concerned, it can be both an ideal and a nightmare, but more often than not, it appears in the hazy state between ideals and nightmares.

Thirty-two years ago, when Takeshi Saito produced "Staring at Love and Death", it was an "ideal" love, and a terminally ill girl was encouraged by her youth to be positive and strive to live to the last moment of her life.

Thirty-two years later, when Ye Zhao and Tsutsumi Yukihiko came to produce "Staring at Love and Death", the fairy tale had been extended to reality, but this was by no means from an "ideal" to a "nightmare", what he and Tsutsumi Yukihiko were doing was to convey the hazy thing between ideals and nightmares.

When deciding to make this movie independently, in order to facilitate scheduling, Ye Zhao set up his own independent production company, which sounds very majestic, but in fact it is equivalent to a studio.

The film company disbanded the studios and stopped supporting actors and directors, which gave directors more freedom.

After breaking away from the film company, whether it is a famous director or an unknown person who broke in, they have set up their own studios for independent production.

And with the development and growth of this team, independent cinemas have also appeared.

It is also thanks to these seniors that Ye Zhao, who is currently making an independent film, has been provided with such a friendly environment for laymen and unknown people.

When the big film companies controlled the world, the movie theater chain was also blocked by the big movie companies, and independently produced films, unless they were bought by them, could only be screened for a short time through small movie theaters.

Compared with the various matters after the completion of the filming, at this stage, it is the easiest to spend a coin in half in the crew, because this stage is the purest, especially for the crew who have no production committee and everyone is working together.

It is said that the best time for a stage actor is when he is in the penultimate show. In this way, at this stage, the state of the three actors who play the leading roles is like the actors of a stage play who are performing in the penultimate scene.

I have experience in acting, and when I come to work as a director, I will unconsciously use the actor's line of sight to observe the actors in front of the camera, which also has some benefits, such as the identity of the actors, to consider why the actors in front of the camera make such a performance.

When the time quietly came to July 12, the filming progress of the movie came to an end. As Yukihiko Tsutsumi shouted the last "はい~cut!", the filming part of "Staring at Love and Death" came to an end.

After the sound of "はい~cut!" fell, the venue was quiet for a while, and Yukihiko Tsutsumi slowly said the crucial sentence "That's it, the filming of "Gazing at Love and Death" is over!"

Then, with this sentence as the starting button, the set resounded with cheers and thanks.

Takahashi Ryu also sent the bouquets ordered in advance, and Ye Zhao sent them to the three main actors.

When recording the finale speech, Ye Zhao brought the 8mm camera that was used as a prop during the filming of "I Heard that Kirishima is going to retire", and the actors made guest appearances, and the visitors asked each other questions.

The first to take over the camera was Masato, followed by Yoshida Yoshinobu, and Shinobu Nakayama was the last. It is worth mentioning that after asking the two actors who played with her, Shinobu Nakayama turned the camera on Ye Zhao again.

"Do Ye Jun have any thoughts on the filming of this movie?"

"Well, of course, it's great. Being photographed by this 8mm camera reminded Ye Zhao of the scene on the rooftop with Domoto when filming "I Heard That Kirishima is going to retire". "And then everybody's doing really well...... It may be a boast to say this, but everyone's performance is really perfect. ”

"What else?"

Ye Zhao thought for a while, "If there is anything else, the film of the 8mm camera is really expensive." So, don't shoot me anymore (for the sake of savings). ”

"Haha......" Shinobu Nakayama laughed, "Okay!" 2k reading network
