Chapter 1387 Trust me, don't hate me, wait for me
"Avatar" is the product of technological innovation, pushing commercial films to the stage of producing more magnificent pictures at a higher cost, and also pushing special effects technology forward a big step, at that time, it was the center of focus from the beginning of its release, and the world was talking about the magic of James Cameron.
At the award level, the new film products promoted with money and technology are not the progress of the entire big film industry, which may be an important factor in its failure to win the Oscars in the end.
"Biography of Galaxy Heroes" uses the same big special effects, the same investment, and even several times that of "Avatar" in terms of the amount of capital, no one will calculate a complete Galaxy Headquarters at this time.
The real recognition of Chen Hao's shooting lies in the 'truth' that he has always insisted on, returning to the essence of the film as much as possible, using the machine in our hands to shoot those fascinating pictures with the lens, and even during this shooting, Chen Hao also invited many old photographers to come out, so that they could carry the camera and rely on their hands to shoot the pictures in the film era of the 80s and 90s.
Many people were dismissive at first, what era is it now, whether it is stability or the clarity of the picture, we can do our best, and we still need people to shoot with a machine in their hands, and drones can shoot.
Wait until the picture is actually taken, and wait until those old photographers who have gradually been forgotten by history present their works and compare them with the most high-tech technology.
If it is only a documentary, there is no doubt that the technical advantage of the latter has laid an absolute victory.
But if it's a proposition essay, especially if you want to give the director what he wants, the old one is not necessarily outdated, sometimes watching people's hands are stable enough to follow the actor's action scene all the way to shoot a long shot, then the picture is definitely art.
Some Chen Hao wants to pursue real shooting results, and these people really have to be able to shoot what he wants, a scene of bullets and bullets, for better results, do you see a photographer in his fifties, carrying a machine and following Chen Hao all the way, shooting all the way after the explosion is blown up?
The slight jitter that really fits the life form is far more enjoyable than the electronic device that is stable to a motionless device.
The whole "Biography of the Galactic Heroes" also uses a lot of retro shooting methods, especially at the location level, which has a bit of an effect that makes Hollywood's green screen studios embarrassed, and the audience was shocked when they saw the effects of those special effects blockbusters more than ten years ago.
Today, more than ten years later, it seems that if there is nothing new and new creativity in it, the audience will not buy it very much, and the series of movie superheroes and the like, each episode must have new technology and new feelings, otherwise even if the audience relies on feelings to buy it, it is destined to be impossible to keep face.
More high-tech, more special effects, so that the production cost of the movie is getting higher and higher, in "Transformers" you don't even feel that there are actors performing, there are robots flying around, it's okay to watch one, watch too much, you will feel that this is not even a popcorn movie.
Movies, or have their appeal.
The increase in the cost of movies is not very high at the level of foreign actors, the 20 million club has reached the top, at most you will add a few million to increase your fame, it will not be a huge pressure on the whole investment, you are famous and feel that you are worth more money, no problem, we recognize your value, but the salary is only so much, if you think you can do it, then bet and give you a share of the box office.
The cost of special effects is too high, many movies can't afford to shoot, except for some big IP movies, it is difficult for new movies to emerge, it is still a matter of cost, you can't get so much investment, and the investors don't have much confidence in your script, you are like a superhero can invest hundreds of millions of dollars to smash at once, can anyone be willing to invest so much money in a new theme? If you don't invest enough money, you can't get the current mainstream blockbuster picture, which also forms a dead knot.
The Oscars awarded this year's best film to "Biography of the Galactic Heroes", which is equivalent to affirming Chen Hao's role as the helmsman, a best director is not enough, only the best picture is enough for this qualification, he has promoted the development of the film to a certain extent, and has found a new direction for those new scripts, new directors and investment departments with enough scripts.
You can also shoot a super special effects blockbuster that shocks all audiences.
All this has a blueprint and a direction for learning.
Today's award to it for the best film is to tell the world that this direction can work, Chen Hao's film not only became the No. 1 box office in world film history, but also left a small piece of pure land for the world film industry, and those things that were once considered obsolete ushered in another spring for them.
Chen Hao stood in front of the microphone, stood in the middle of the stage, faced everyone at the scene, and faced the hundreds of millions of viewers around the world transmitted by the camera, and shook the trophy in his hand vigorously: "I will always come, do my best, do what I have to do, and not let everyone down." ”
"Trust me, don't hate me, wait for me!"
Believe that I will make more movies, don't hate me for making better movies, waiting for me to come back with the best movies.
Nine words, in the applause of the audience, this year's Oscars ended with his nine-word declaration, the true feelings shown at the last moment, also touched many people, the pride and ambition shown in the nine words, also ignited many people, Spielberg admitted in the interview afterwards that his creative feeling was ignited by Chen Hao, a script that has been prepared in his hands for a long time, he is ready to take it out directly, looking forward and backward may never be ripe for filming, set up a crew, let all problems be exposed in the shooting, and really solve the problem in the shooting, that kind of movie will have more personal charm, with it, is a geometric exponential increase in risk.
Young people are not afraid, those of us who are already old men, what are we afraid of, at the end of our careers, don't we dare to do something that we are not sure of?
Chen Hao was not idle, facing the interview that night, he also frankly admitted his shooting plan, in addition to a few movies that are already in the plan, he will also open an action movie with an investment cost of less than 100 million, all action scenes are completed by himself, all action scenes are not filmed and edited, all in one shot, Bruce Lee's madness back then, I want to be even crazier than him, and I want to ignite the action movies of the entire new century.
I will shoot the movie that people like the most in the simplest way.
If there are still some people who question this declaration, then the news revealed by the world's major insurance companies a few days later will really shock the world.
PS: I wish you all good health and financial prosperity in 2019 in advance, believe me, wait for me, I will be better next year!
