Chapter 1381: Success is no accident
To be honest, Chen Hao really doesn't know what kind of drama everyone is acting abroad now?
From "Lost" to "The Undertaker" to "Biography of the Galactic Heroes", even if "The Three-Body Problem" has not officially started filming, there have been many Chinese actors, in addition to those in the United States, there are more actors filming in various Asian countries, and there are also a few European films, last year's Cannes Film Festival, Chinese actors are no longer the Chinese Army, just like today, it is not the stars holding the moon and the moon, but the stars are shining in the starry sky at the scene.
Not only actors, from photography to art and editing, this group of Huaxia staff has foreign jobs, especially action directors and martial arts instructors, which are extremely sought-after.
In today's meeting, Chen Hao has nothing on the surface, he is very proud in his heart, he will never be arrogant, even if he has to be modest in front of people, it is normal to be a little wild in his heart.
"These people, but I brought them out, I am not only a stepping stone for Huaxia to knock on the world stage, I have built a mobile stage to connect directly to the world stage. ”
Speaking from the heart, selflessness is fake, and if you win more awards, you really feel that all this in front of me is happier than winning the award yourself.
Although the Golden Globe Award only won an award for Best Actor, no one will deny the greatness of "Biography of the Galactic Heroes", its greatness is not at the level of artistic attainment, just like "Avatar" back then, in the history of films, it is never possible to bypass them, and the historical image placed there with the most straightforward data will always be one of the important criteria for measuring the historical value of a movie.
Ask the current audience, do they prefer "The Biography of the Galactic Heroes" or "Forrest Gump" and "The Shawshank Redemption"?
This answer is not difficult to answer, most ordinary audiences still prefer movies that can make them more enjoyable in more than an hour or two hours, no matter how powerful the meaning is, it is not necessarily that all audiences are willing to accept other people's thinking patterns and thought structures.
Some people's three views are indestructible, they watch movies really just for two hours of entertainment, who can bring me a better view, then it is my favorite movie.
At the beginning of the awards season, "Biography of the Galactic Heroes" was once again hotly discussed by everyone, whether it should be awarded or not, there is no doubt that it is a commercial blockbuster, and commercial blockbusters have not had such an honor for many years, if you have to say that there is, "Titanic" was between the two Count one, when everyone was shocked by the series of shocking pictures of the shipwreck hitting the iceberg, the quality of the film itself was also there, but it was such a film, and it actually didn't win any big actor awards, and for the commercial atmosphere of "Biography of the Galactic Heroes", can the two protagonists really win the favor of the Oscar judges?
The hot topics throughout the awards season are getting hotter and hotter, not to mention, the awards are really in favor of "Biography of the Galactic Heroes", seeing that the Oscars are coming, they have set off a wave of momentum, and there is a feeling that they have to rely on public opinion to show their value.
Chen Hao did not return to China in the New Year, many actors are actively filming at the Galaxy Headquarters like him, occasionally shooting exterior scenes once or twice, and the shooting method inherited from Chen Hao also makes many people unbearable, it is a kind of shooting method that will consume your body to the brink of collapse, so that your spirit is in an extremely high state, every scene is an outbreak, and every scene is hoarse.
Every location scene is a large-scale shooting, hundreds of people often serve a scene, the number of group performances is no longer a problem, the use of various props and sets, every reshoot, not only means a lot of money is consumed, it is likely that the connection between the front and back scenes is not very good, and several scenes will be reshot.
It is difficult not to be watched by such a crew when shooting exterior scenes, every shooting requires a large area of closed shooting venues, there are too many times of N cameras, even if Chen Hao can adjust his state, the actors can adjust themselves, so many staff and so many group performances, as a director, there is no way to take care of them all, and it is likely that the shooting effect is not as good as one.
For this reason, Chen Hao's style is to squeeze everyone's physical fitness, so that they are in a high degree of concentration when filming starts, and would rather shoot a little too much than not let everyone exert enough strength. After the filming, the next one may not need the actors to collect it themselves, and the tiredness makes them accept some of it, and it naturally meets the standard.
After filming one or two scenes, Chen Hao gave everyone some spiritual and material double rewards, and they were really screaming, and I couldn't wait to take a few more shots when I was in a good state.
There are hundreds of staff, more than a dozen large and medium-sized props on the scene are pulled over, there are countless small props, there are more than 200 actors, and there are more than 100 special effects team.
Whether it's a cold wind or a warm sea breeze, whether it's getting warmer and warmer all the way to the south or getting colder and colder all the way to the north, the filming team of "Biography of the Galaxy Heroes" always has an attitude that I want to do things in the best state, this spirit comes from Chen Hao, no matter when, he will always lead by example, when I don't enjoy the privileges, when I'm like you, I can do it, you don't seem to have a reason why you can't do it.
The food is good and the accommodation is good, and the welfare of the crew is also high on weekdays, with such Mr. Chen, if you make a very low-level mistake in a scene, then you don't need others to say anything about you, you don't have a face to see people, you can't raise your head at all, you don't dare to think about how many pairs of eyes will look at you at this time, there will be no scolding and dissatisfaction in these eyes, some are just a pity, just this one pity, you can't stand it.
All the location scenes are filmed intensively, and the large army is concentrated for a period of time to overcome all the difficulties.
Xiao Lizi, a man who always stood in the command ship in a military uniform, at the end of the second part, because of the unpredictable development of the war, his command ship was shot down, and he was forced to start a fleeing journey.
Xiao Lizi is also the first time to go out on location during the filming of this series of movies.
As soon as he came out, he felt that the atmosphere around him was wrong, every day the rapid march, the road traffic in the United States is smooth, and large vehicles can be carried out very easily long-distance transportation, Chen Hao likes to use land transportation, saving back and forth, and it also just cultivates everyone's collective sense of being together, and at the same time uses rapid marching to squeeze everyone's physical fitness.
When you are sleepy, you will sleep for a while, and when you open your eyes, we will shoot all the way, adjust the shooting time according to the location, and all members of the crew will serve the location.
At the beginning, Xiao Lizi was still a little uncomfortable, and suddenly he was a little confused, why suddenly everyone seemed in a hurry, and the sense of urgency on everyone's face was like if we didn't finish shooting in the next second, our shooting time would be insufficient.
"Hurry up, build all the props before dark. ”
"The logistics team went to nearby towns to buy dinner and ran a few more to make sure everyone had dinner before dark. ”
"The tents set up are along the col, and it is very windy here at night, telling everyone to be safe. ”
"The actors did the first non-physical simulation shooting, and everyone changed costumes and props in place an hour later, and we walked through them in advance. ”
"The driver put the car in a circle, then lit a fire, and then withdrew early tomorrow morning, we won't shoot tonight. ”
"The weather forecast shows that it will snow tomorrow morning, and we will officially start filming tomorrow morning. ”
"Tell the director that the medical team has been replenished from nearby cities and is in the process of returning. ”
"The costumes and props team were the first to enter the tent and do a final inspection of the costumes used for the filming and distribute them to the actors. ”
The whole crew is like a machine, everyone performs their duties, and several assistant directors are also used to their own position, you are responsible for the filming of the actors, you are responsible for logistics, you are responsible for the props, they all know that you are not qualified to be lazy in this crew, your diligence and hard work in exchange for absolutely not ignorance, it will definitely be a big red envelope after the movie is released.
Chen Hao is the core of the whole machine, he usually only has one assistant Qiu Yu, but as soon as he enters the crew, there will be at least four assistants around him, and as soon as the location shooting stops, these assistants are responsible for reporting to him and implementing his meaning.
Have you ever seen a crew assistant who could have a meeting with the director in turn?
Here, you Mr. Chen have an idea, we are rich below, the specific implementation may encounter difficulties, we need to sit together for a meeting, we discuss what to do? If there is a need for the final decision or communication with the outside world, you Mr. Chen needs to give us a guide and suggestion.
The whole crew was busy, Chen Hao was called away by the props team and the assistant director in charge of the props, and the station had not yet been built, so they ran directly to the bus for a meeting, the narrow space does not matter, the important thing is that everyone can summarize their ideas as quickly as possible in an environment.
"This time the prop explosion, we still think that it is good to use computer special effects to do it, and the actors can run the process on the spot, and we will increase the impact of the wind and waves to achieve the air wave effect of the explosion. "The senior props master of the props team pulled Xiao Lizi and told Chen Hao that it is not feasible to shoot the props exploding in real time, you Mr. Chen can, he Xiao Lizi can't, he doesn't have as fast a reaction speed as you, so there will be danger when the special effects are blasted.
