Honas-Cuhlon did not disappoint the USC students, walking onto the stage amid cheers and waving to the USC students in the audience, who responded with even louder applause and cheers, almost like a superstar is coming.
During the city war, as long as he can defeat the opposing school, then he is the hero of the entire school, and can win countless applause and cheers.
The lights go out and Caron's short film begins.
When the first shot of Cuarón's short film appeared, the audience was shocked, and everyone knew that it was going to be an extraordinary short film. Because, the screen of the movie is split in two, divided into two identical pieces. However, the different colored curtains in the Guò room can still be seen by the viewer that these are two different rooms.
Sure enough, one hand was raised on the left and one on the left, the man on the left and the woman on the right, the man's hand on the left, and the woman's hand on the right. The two hands pull back the curtains, and the window is full of two completely different mature buildings, with modern Los Angeles on the left and Paris with its old-fashioned architecture on the right.
This man and woman live in different cities, but their movements are completely synchronized, taking a bath, making breakfast, making coffee, reading the newspaper. Of course, there is a difference, men watch financial news, while women watch entertainment news. Next, the two walked out of the house at the same time, crossed the street, and got on the subway.
Then the two got into the car at the same time, came to the airport, and got on the plane. After a night of flying, they arrived in London, got on the bus, came to London Bridge, and smiled at each other on the bridge.
Cuarón's story is very simple, a Los Angeles man, a Parisian woman. The two met in London. However, his shooting technique is really good, all the shots are all subjective shots, and then combined with parallel montages.
Many people have played CS, but in fact, the picture of CS is a subjective lens. Take CS as an example. A policeman, a bandit, both rush forward after the game starts, and fire at each other after encountering. It's normal to shoot like this, and Jonas Caron's way of shooting is to take half of the police shot. Half of the picture of the bandits is taken and put together, the left half is the picture of the police, and the right side is the picture of the bandits, and the audience can see both sides rushing forward at the same time, so that the feeling to the audience is completely different.
After the film ended, although unwilling, UCLA students also had to applaud with USC students. This short film is simply fantastic, with parallel montages and subjective shots applied to the extreme, which can only be described as perfect.
Among the judges. Spielberg glanced at Coppola and smiled, "No doubts. This year's winner should be this short film! All subjective shots and parallel montages have been done to the extreme, and there could not be a better work!"
Coppola was a little upset, he graduated from UCLA, and he definitely wanted the students of his alma mater to win, but this short film by Jonas Caron is so powerful that it is almost impossible to win. However, he refused to admit defeat to his old friend: "It's too early to say this, although this work is very creative, it also has many flaws." I'm sure there will be better works in the future!"
Spielberg smiled lightly: "You can't use your level to demand students, the key is to have ideas." This short film uses subjective shots and parallel montages to the extreme, and there is no suspense about victory or defeat!"
At this moment, the students in the audience are also discussing. There was a lively discussion.
"All the shots were subjective, and the combination of parallel montages was a perfect score. This one looks like we've won again!"
"It's a wonderful video, it's so cleverly conceived! Two people who love each other are in New York and Paris, and they're doing the same thing in different places, drinking coffee, reading the newspaper, and taking the bus. On this day, they traveled thousands of miles. Just to see each other. ”
"This short film is too powerful, I'm afraid it's a little difficult to win against USC this time!"
Soon, all five judges gave their own scores, and Honas Cuarón's short film "A Love Story" received a horror score of 9.9!
Almost all the USC students jumped, sang and danced, and cheered loudly. There is no suspense anymore, and the winner this time will definitely be USC.
Listening to the applause and cheers of the USC students around him, Jason smiled and glanced up at UCLA. There were too many people present, and he didn't know where Zhang Ran was. But he said in his heart, "What's going on?" It's amazing! Now take out your work, don't let me down!
While the USC students were cheering, the ULCA students began to collectively shout Zhang Ran's name. Jonas Cuarón's short film is so strong that now they can only pin their hopes on their heroes.
"Robin!"
Zhang Ran shook his head lightly when he heard everyone shouting his name, an important person like me should appear in the finale, how faceless it is to appear early! But everyone is so enthusiastic, he can't let everyone dry, take off his disguise, and walk to the stage.
At the moment when Zhang Ran walked on the stage, the UCLA students in the audience erupted in shocking cheers, and the students of USC collectively booed.
Robert Rosen on the jury is the former dean of ULCA and a film critic. He glanced at Spielberg: "Jonas Cuarón's short film is very good, but now the man who can beat him is on the scene!"
Coppola asked curiously, "What, this student's level is very high?"
Robert Rosen nodded slightly: "This student's name is Zhang Ran, and he has made three movies so far, including "Bursting Drummer", and "Time and Space Warrior", I am optimistic that he will become the second Ang Lee!"
Coppola suddenly smiled, looked at Spielberg, and said with a smile: "Well, I said it's too early!"
Spielberg smiled slightly: "I have watched "Burst Drummer", and the lighting, composition, and scheduling of this student are of a very high standard. But he is conservative in his use of lenses, and if he compares lighting and composition, he will definitely win, but this time he is shooting unconventionally, which is not his forte!"
Coppola smiled and shook his head: "A few days ago, I went to the set of Scorsese's "The Aviator" to visit the class. I asked him, you usually take a break after a film, why did you start filming in such a hurry this time? Scorsese said, I met a young man in Berlin who also wanted to make a story about flying. After talking to him, I felt the urge to give up on the story. If I don't shoot it now, I'm afraid I won't have the courage to shoot this story when that young man finishes filming. I was very surprised and asked what the young man's name was. He sued me. It's called Zhang Ran!"
Spielberg was dumbfounded: "Are you kidding?"
Coppola shook his head: "Do you think I'm going to joke with Scorsese's reputation? Do you know how Zhang is going to make that movie about flying? He is going to use all the shots in transverse!"
Spielberg was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly: "What a crazy young man!"
The lights in the auditorium went out, and Zhang Ran's short film began to play.
High-rise, the doorbell rings.
Zhang Jingchu opened the door, and Feng Yuanyi appeared in the camera. Zhang Jingchu looked at Feng Yuan suspiciously. She didn't know the man.
Feng Yuan was a little apprehensive and said, "Hello!"
Zhang Jingchu smiled and said, "Hello!" After finishing speaking, she looked at Feng Yuanyi, wondering what was going on with the other party, but Feng Yuanyi didn't speak, just looked at herself. She was a little puzzled and said, "Hello!"
Feng Yuan still didn't speak, just looked at her like that. Zhang Jingchu frowned, and then closed the door.
The moment the door closes, the camera switches. Feng Yuan walked to the door, looked left and right, took out a note again, and after confirming that it was this family, he pressed the doorbell.
The camera switched again, Feng Yuanyi stood downstairs, looked upstairs, and then walked towards the building.
Seeing this, everyone understands that this story is told backwards.
Right now. The footage suddenly became very blurry, a bit like a flashback shot. There is a mirror in the picture, and Hu Jun in pajamas appears in the shot. Then the camera panned to the left, and Zhang Jingchu was standing on the balcony. Smile at the camera.
The screen switches, in the living room, Hu Jun is sitting on the sofa on the phone, talking about business. Zhang Jingchu walked into the living room with her travel suitcase and looked at Hu Jun with a very unhappy expression. I'm going out, why are I still on the phone?
Hu Jun said apologetically: "Wait a minute, just a minute!" After making the call, Hu Jun picked up his clothes and walked over to Zhang Jingchu.
The story of the movie is so fragmented that the audience is confused and doesn't know what it's about.
Bars, crazy music. Feng Yuan asked for a glass of wine, and then took out a sketch of a woman, which was exactly what Zhang Jingchu looked like. Feng Yuan was stunned and asked, "Have you ever seen this woman?"
The bartender shook his head: "I haven't seen it!"
The blurry picture reappeared, Zhang Jingchu sat in front of the bar and drank a glass of wine, and then shook her head wildly to the music.
The screen switches, Zhang Jingchu and Hu Jun came down from upstairs, sat in the car, and then drove the car to prepare for the trip.
Feng Yuan was stunned to paint in the studio, and suddenly, his head stabbed, and a blurry picture flashed in front of his eyes, which was a woman's face. He didn't know what was going on, and endured a severe headache to draw the woman's appearance.
The camera switched back to the car, Hu Jun drove the car absentmindedly, and Zhang Jingchu looked out the window boredly. Suddenly, a car rushed out from the side and slammed into Hu Jun's car.
The world was spinning and the ambulance siren sounded.
At the entrance of the hospital, Feng Yuan, who had dark circles under his eyes, walked out of the hospital and looked at the sky with half-squinted eyes, he was a little uncomfortable with this strong light. But his expression was very excited, as if a long drought had been met with nectar.
At the door of the emergency room, Zhang Jingchu looked at the red light of the emergency room in horror, clasped her hands together, and fidgeted. Just then, the lights in the emergency room went out and the door opened. Zhang Jingchu walked over and looked at the doctor with pleading eyes. The doctor, however, just shook his head slightly. Zhang Jingchu's body was weak and sat directly on the ground.
The screen switches to the front desk of the hospital, Zhang Jingchu takes a copy of Wen Jiàn from the nurse's hand, and signs her name, and the title of Wen Jiàn reads "Cornea Transplant".
The camera cuts to the ward, where Feng Yuan is sitting on the hospital bed, his eyes tightly wrapped in bandages. A doctor approached and removed the bandages, revealing two eye sockets that had been a little blackened from not seeing sunlight for too long.
This concludes the video.
The audience suddenly realized what the whole story was about. The heroine and her husband go out on a trip and encounter a car accident, in which the husband dies. The heroine transplanted her husband's cornea to the hospital, but she didn't expect that the cornea of the eye has a memory, and the picture in the memory will continue to appear. The male protagonist found the heroine according to the picture he saw. The story is actually very simple, but it is divided into two lines, the heroine is told in normal chronological order, and the male protagonist is told backwards.
This short film is very wonderful, but this time it is unconventional, not storytelling. Cuarón's short film, which is entirely subjective, with parallel montages, is the clear winner. So when the video ended, the USC students erupted in loud cheers, singing and dancing in celebration.
"Win, haha!"
"This short film can't compare to Honas's!"
"We USC are the best, and this time we won again!"
UCLA students are a little frustrated, Zhang Ran is their strongest player, but now that Zhang Ran is about to lose, it seems that there is no hope this year.
Josh Trunk saw that the ULCA students around him looked like frosted eggplants, and smiled: "Why are you down, we may not lose today's game!"
Hearing Josh Trunk say this, UCLA students were shocked: "What? Do we have more powerful students?"
"No, I'm saying that Zhang's short film doesn't necessarily lose to Honas Caron. Don't you notice? Zhang's short film doesn't push or pull, doesn't pan the camera, it's all camera shifting, and it's all horizontal camera panning! He's such a crazy guy!" Josh Trunk sighed softly, "I'm so far behind these real geniuses!"
Hearing Trank say this, the students around him thought about it, and it was true, Zhang Ran's short films were all pan shots. But they still don't understand: "It's not a big deal to use all the horizontal lenses, there are a lot of horizontal moving shots in the movie!"
Josh Trunk shook his head gently: "It's not uncommon for movies to have pan shots, but it's anti-cinematic grammar to use traverse shots throughout the movie, and it can even be said to be anti-cinematic!"
