Chapter 691: Filming Begins

The press conference of "Infernal Affairs" was huge, and all the magazines and media with the names of the newspapers were invited to participate.

It is estimated that with an investment of 110 million, directed by the famous director Yang Muwen, starring actor Liang Jiahe and Chen Feng, many powerful actors participated, and many good news were announced one by one.

People inside and outside the circle have greatly changed their views on "Infernal Affairs", and there are even many media speculations that this big production invested and built by Yi Shuihan Studio has the possibility of being a big hit.

With the help of this wave of momentum, the publicity department of Yi Shuihan Studio expanded the scale of publicity and carried out initial publicity and preparation.

But to the surprise of Zheng Liaoyuan and others, the publicity momentum of "Infernal Affairs" was blocked!

The press conference of "Prison Storm" suddenly took away the momentum of "Infernal Affairs" with the gimmick of many actors joining, directed by Liu Haoyu, and an investment of 150 million!

In addition to the factor of the script, the movie "Prison Storm" is not inferior to "Infernal Affairs" in any way, and even surpasses "Infernal Affairs" in many places, not to mention that the channels of Poseidon Group itself are far stronger than Yi Shuihan Studio.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that "Prison Storm" is suppressing "Infernal Affairs"!

If two movies are released at the same time, then the impact will be even greater, and for the same type of movie, in most cases, the audience will only choose one movie to watch, which will greatly affect the number of moviegoers.

This move of Poseidon Film and Television Group surprised Yi Shuihan and others, and also ruined the publicity plan of "Infernal Affairs".

Yi Shuihan naturally learned the news! In that case...... It's still the same sentence, see the real chapter under your hands!

With so many powerful actors joining, coupled with the script of "Infernal Affairs", he doesn't believe that he will not be able to withstand the other party.

No matter how chaotic the outside world is, the filming plan of "Infernal Affairs" has also started step by step.

After taking makeup photos and launching the press conference, "Infernal Affairs" began official shooting.

is different from the usual police and gangster films before, "Infernal Affairs" basically has no hot fight scenes in the whole film, but the tension of the film is very strong.

Yang Muwen's ability is extremely strong, and he has reached a very high level in the control of the lens and the presentation of the picture.

According to the setting of the storyboard script, the beginning of Infernal Affairs uses the most concise shots to explain the background of the story - the underworld and the police plant undercover agents for each other.

Brother Han Chen, played by Chen Ruquan, spoke to the younger brothers in the Buddhist hall in a chic manner, and in the camera, Liu Jianming when he was young was highlighted.

In Chen Yongren being expelled from the police academy, he compared the attitudes of the two with a slight static, with the lines, which made people even more impressed by the moment that changed the beginning of their lives.

Here, Yang Muwen uses a cross-montage to show the different growth paths of the two.

Before the formal narrative begins, that is, to tell the young events of the two protagonists, it can be said that it is a story told through the lens, and various shots of Chen Yongren fighting as a troubled boy and Liu Jianming training as a policeman in the police academy are quickly switched to show the growth process of the two.

This paragraph is compact and smooth, and it took time to pave the way for the future story in this compact shot, Liu Jianming under the reflector is to pave the way for the later story to kill Sister Mary, and Chen Yongren's finger pointing at the wall close-up is to pave the way for Chen Yongren to go undercover with Morse code to report the message, although the lens transition is fast, there is no useless content, which can be described as short and exciting.

It can be said that there are basically no waste shots in the whole film, and many small details that flash by are meaningful.

From Han Chen's arrival in the temple to the scene of Liu Jianming's salute, the time was only more than 4 minutes, but how Chen Yongren embarked on the undercover road and how Liu Jianming rose step by step within the police are clearly explained.

This paragraph is actually quite informative, and if it is directed by an ordinary director, it may become the kind of knight - all the story settings depend on the stupid dialogue of the characters, which is very lo, not clever.

But Yang Muwen can be clearly explained in a compact and wonderful clip, which is where his value lies.

The refinement of visual expression and the strong adjustment of shooting to the overall picture sense have always been a criterion that Yang Muwen abides by.

And in the filming of the past few days, even if it is a small test, you can also see the performance skills of Yi Shuihan and others!

But after all, it was filmed in a cross-montage way, and Yi Shuihan and Chen Feng's acting skills were not shown in these clips.

In addition, Liu Jianming and Chen Yongren when they were young were more sharp-edged, and they were not as restrained as they were in middle age.

In terms of performance, it is obvious that Liu Jianming and Chen Yongren performed more difficult in the later period.

Although there are not many shots of Liang Jiahe these days, most of him will come to the set to observe the performances of Yi Shuihan and Chen Feng!

Because of Yi Shuihan's eyes at that time, he became very interested in Yi Shuihan.

Because the footage has been relatively broken in the past few days, he can't see anything powerful for the time being.

But in terms of performance, at least he can control this role.

Chen Feng and himself are actors, Chen Ruquan is an old actor who has been immersed in the set for decades, only Yi Shuihan is the youngest, the least qualified, and the least experienced.

Liang Jiahe wanted to see why Yi Shuihan would not let him down!

The next shooting is really time to test him.

Yi Shuihan during filming is completely different from him at ordinary times.

During the filming, Yi Shuihan will mostly be addicted to the role and unable to extricate himself, and his whole personality and life will be affected by the role.

Just like these days, Yi Shuihan is more taciturn, and there are too many emotions hidden in his dark eyes.

It is precisely because of this state that Yi Shuihan has a deeper understanding of the role of Chen Yongren.

What is it like to be an undercover agent? Yi Shuihan's words understood more profoundly at this time: you want to gain the trust of others in order to achieve your goals, but you are destined to betray this trust. The more successful you are, the stronger your sense of failure.

Chen Yongren has no autonomy, and is just a puppet and a pawn who has been subjected to criminal law from beginning to end, and their sense of failure and depression is exponentially magnified by "successfully living" again and again.

The closer he got to Han Chen, the more dangerous he became, and the more he needed to guard against camouflage!

These emotions need to be disguised and hidden, so Chen Yongren needs to be the same as others on the surface, but the emotions in those eyes need to be deposited, which is a difficult point in his performance.

And these days of shooting, in Yi Shuihan's mind, it has become a real experience! Then the depression and heaviness in his heart are also accumulating......
