Chapter 1200: The Actor
Chapter 1200 Actor
Zhang Luofu held the script to read it, and Jiang Xia himself went to audition for the actors.
It took a month to audition some of the main actors for the audition, and at the same time, I also went to see several filming locations.
For the design of the city of Gotham, Jiang Xia referred to New York, and then asked someone to design it, but the specific shooting location was in the studio in Los Angeles.
Special effects will be applied, but when it comes to actual shooting, there will be certain locations in Los Angeles for live shooting.
Nolan prefers real shooting, and Jiang Xia personally likes it, and the texture of real shooting cannot be achieved by special effects.
Jiang Xia found a lot of places to make scenes, and then drew storyboards.
"Dad, I've written it. Zhang Luofu gave Jiang Xia a short biography of his characters on this day.
Jiang Xia took the Batman "Biography" he wrote and looked at it.
In Zhang Luofu's writing, Mr. Bruce Wayne is a playboy with the identity of a family, but at the same time, he has punished evil and promoted good since he was a child, and has a chivalrous spirit.
The biography written by Zhang Luofu for Batman is naturally much worse than the original version, but it is not easy to write a biography like this only according to the story of the second part.
Jiang Xia himself faced this small biography and didn't say anything, but passed his original small version to Zhang Luofu.
Zhang Luofu took it and took a general look, and then was dumbfounded.
"I don't blame you for this character biography, but you didn't sort out the relationship between the characters, and you should be blamed for this. Jiang Xia said, "In the script, here, when recalling the story of Batman, I roughly explained why he is called Batman, and the training he himself did was after the death of his parents, and you don't need to reflect this." ”
"Well, I really didn't notice that. Zhang Luofu said.
Jiang Xia said: "I don't blame you for this, character biography should be the job of a screenwriter, and it is a little difficult for you to do it as a director, but this is something you should train, if a director doesn't even understand the characters, he can't help the actors understand the role, and he doesn't know if the actors are playing the right thing." ”
"Well, I know this, but I think this character should be able to communicate with the screenwriter. Zhang Luofu said.
"The screenwriter's job ends the moment the script is written, and the rest is the director's job. You can design different backgrounds for the characters, so that the characters are more in line with your expectations, you are the director, everything should serve you, understand?" Jiang Xia asked.
Zhang Luofu was thoughtful.
Jiang Xia continued: "In this regard, you should have studied, I don't believe that you have studied directing for seven years, and you must have your own opinions when you learn it at this level." When you shot the initial D, it didn't seem to be like that. ”
"Yes, the relationship between the characters in the initial D is simple, and the background is also simple. Zhang Luofu said, "I haven't touched the role of superheroes, it's too commercial." ”
"That's not the reason you should be looking for. Jiang Xia said, "Now I'm going to do another job, I'll take you to the special effects venue tomorrow to have a look, and you can draw a sub-shot." Jiang Xia said, "This, I once taught you when I was filming Harry Potter, I shouldn't have forgotten it, right?"
"Nope. Zhang Luofu said.
"That's good. Jiangxia said.
Zhang Luofu has been following Jiang Xia for some time recently, whether Jiang Xia is an audition actor or helping to find a venue, he is following, and when Jiang Xia comes back to draw a storyboard, he goes to write a character biography.
Following Jiang Xia, he did see how Jiang Xia worked.
Seeing that Jiang Xia eliminated so many people before he selected each role, as someone who had read the script, he had to admit that Jiang Xia's choice of roles was very accurate.
When choosing the venue, he also saw how Jiang Xia chose the venue, not to look at the quality of the venue first, but to determine the position of the camera first, and then determine whether this side is suitable according to the lens.
This is completely different from Zhang Luofu's original habit, he always determines the venue first, and then starts to find the position of the camera, which is sometimes very difficult.
Zhang Luofu also learned a lot about how to interview actors, and in some details, Jiang Xia did a very good job.
In the past two days, Zhang Luofu wrote more than 10,000 words, all of which were things he thought he should record and learn from Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia didn't tell him much, it was all summed up by Zhang Luofu himself.
In the past two days, Jiang Xia has talked about the most about this biography of the character today.
In fact, with Zhang Luofu's level, it is absolutely impossible to write such a simple biography, so Jiang Xia criticized him.
Zhang Luofu went upstairs, then locked himself in his room and called Jiang Chenxi.
"Sister, what the hell is the character biography you wrote, my father criticized me. Zhang Luofu said.
"Really, fake, I criticized you?" Jiang Chenxi asked.
"Really, really criticized me for what the hell I wrote. Zhang Luo said, "I really regret giving this to you to write." ”
"Aren't you busy, you can't help it. Jiang Chenxi smiled, "Okay, continue to read carefully, study carefully, and take more notes." This may be your only chance. ”
"I know, but, sir, you're doing a good job, and you've learned a lot, much more than you did in just two days. Zhang Luofu said.
"Isn't it? Jiang Chenxi said with a smile.
"The old lady is invincible. Zhang Luofu said.
"By the way, the Oscars are about to be awarded, right? Daddy is not going yet?" Jiang Chenxi asked.
Zhang Luofu said: "Of course, what kind of character does dad have, you still don't understand?"
"It's a pity. Jiang Chenxi said.
"It's a shame. Zhang Luofu said.
The Oscar nominations have been announced before, and Jiang Xia's film "I Am Legend" last year was successfully shortlisted for "Best Actor", which is also the only award shortlisted for the entire film.
Jiang Xia himself admitted that his movie was attacking the Oscar "Best Actor", and now he has indeed done so, and he is half of the success so far.
However, although Jiang Xia did not announce that this was his last film to hit the "Best Actor", Andre said so to the Oscar organizing committee, he is a judge, and his meaning is clear, if Jiang Xia is not given the "Best Actor" this time, maybe Jiang Xia, a world-class legendary actor, will never win the Oscar "Best Actor".
Maybe Andre's words played a role, or maybe it really moved the Oscar judges, Jiang Xia was only shortlisted for one award at this year's Oscars, and then successfully won the award.
He accomplished his goal and won the first Chinese Oscar.
