As a carrier of images, there is no doubt that film is literary and artistic!

The exquisiteness of the story told by a movie determines the height of a movie.

If a drama doesn't even have a complete story, then no matter how good the shooting techniques and acting skills are, they are just showing off their skills, and nothing will help!

"Journey to the West", an eternal classic, but what about Liu Zhenwei's directing skills?

One word, rotten!

Whether it's editing or script lines, even if it's blunt, the key is that some places give people a feeling of not knowing what to do...

Let's take the most obvious example.

'At that time, the sword was only 0.01 centimeters from my throat, but after a quarter of a pillar of incense, the owner of the sword fell in love with me, because I decided to tell a lie, and although I have lied countless times in my life, this one I think is the most perfect!'

When Supreme Treasure silently recited this line, Liu Zhenwei chose to use subjective language to narrate Supreme Treasure's thoughts, and then what appeared was "Love You for 10,000 Years", which was praised by fans for 20 years, but these frames, from the perspective of movie lens analysis, really have no effect except for destroying the atmosphere, especially the shot of Zixia Fairy scratching her hands with her fingertips, which simply ruined the atmosphere of the whole scene to the extreme, so that the next "10,000 years" sounds only endless pretentiousness!

However, just because the story of "Journey to the West" is very beautiful, Bai Jingjing, Zixia Fairy, and Sun Wukong, Liu Zhenwei was also praised to the throne...

In the same way, director Zhao Xiaoding, the director of "Three Lives and Three Worlds Washing Eyes", when he talked about the movie, he said: "Our Chinese audience still stays in me to watch the story, fantasy, you get a background, cut out the picture and take a side, I don't care, these audiences are quite pitiful." ”

Typical can't pull out shi, just complain that the pit is too dirty...

You are doing a commercial film, you can't even tell the story well, and you complain that the audience doesn't know how to appreciate it!

The first huge loss in film history "Future Water World", the special effects are good enough...

"All special effects and techniques are at the service of the story itself, and a good movie is first and foremost a good story!"

……

Since joining the crew, Xu Hui has been staying with a group of technicians from the special effects company.

He had to figure out what was called 3D shooting.

Even the brain-opening part of the creators who have been maintaining every night has been omitted...

Not to mention the actors in the crew, even the staff felt that Pao Hui was a bit of a magic barrier.

Shooting started today, and one of the simplest long shots actually tossed back and forth more than 20 times.

Several of the main creators were a little worried.

They are afraid that Cannon Hui will be addicted to 3D technology and will not be able to extricate themselves...

And a few of them really can't understand why Xu Hui is so persistent in pursuing 3D effects, "Once Upon a Time" is the 2D version, and the box office is not very good!

……

Pao Hui was quite happy, although he had experimented more than 20 times, he finally succeeded!

As long as you take this small step, the subsequent shoots will go more smoothly.

Looking up, the sun has already set, damn it, I actually filmed for almost five hours.

"Brother Yuan, let's go, let's go eat something. ”

"Good!"

Although Nie Yuan complained a little, he also knew that Xu Hui was not only proficient in 3D shooting, but also mainly to grind the crew.

Fortunately, he rode a camel, and if it was a tall horse, it was estimated that his butt would be smoothed out...

"Brother Yuan, you have also read the script, the most brilliant thing in this drama is undoubtedly the gold inlaid jade, and then Qiu Moyan, Chen Kun's Cao Shaoqin, you also watched it yesterday, whether it is the temperament or the consistency of the role, domineering side leakage, you are under pressure!"

"yes, I'm embarrassed too..."

Nie Yuan didn't panic.

He did get a little tangled.

According to the script, Zhou Huai'an is gentle and elegant, and his martial arts are superb...

But the audience is the most straightforward, where do people have time to experience your moisturizing silent, coquettish and spicy gold inlaid with jade; Qiu Moyan, a woman who swept thousands of armies like a sweep, abides by the introverted, reserved and elegant traditional Oriental women;

Where is Nie Yuan's room to play?

Liang Jiahui at the beginning was covered by most of the aura of these two women...

“… You think about it yourself, anyway, the overall framework of the script has already been set!"

Pao Hui expressed a slight sympathy.

For him, it is enough for a movie with three characters with distinct images.

If Nie Yuan's Zhou Huai'an really can't help up, then I'm embarrassed, Pao Hui will focus on the other three people!

In the actors' lounge, several people were still chatting about their understanding of the role.

Xu Hui's crew has a kind of magic, from the staff to the actors, they are willing to express their cognition of the movie and the role.

Of course, mainly because the hostess of this crew has not yet appeared, so there is no gossip to talk about...

Pao Hui walked into the actors' lounge and said, "What are you talking about? Let's go, let's go eat something together, authentic beach sheep!"

……

The crew of "New Dragon Gate Inn" is very proud!

The production budget of 200 million yuan is not only used for film shooting, but also for the care of the crew, actors and staff.

After all, this is Western Studios.

The supporting facilities around Western Film and Television City are very bad, and the actors of the crew can only stay in a three-star hotel at most.

Relatively poor security!

After all, Western Film and Television City is a little deserted, and there has been no crew coming to shoot for many years...

It's a bit troublesome to live, and of course the food is good!

Pao Hui specially invited two chefs this time, one is good at northern cuisine and the other is good at southern cuisine.

I pulled a leg of mutton and bit it down, and my mouth was full of tender mutton, and there was no smell at all.

While eating, he said to Chen Kun next to him: "... Brother Kun, it's time to shoot your scene tomorrow, get ready!"

"I've been ready for a long time!"

Chen Kun nodded, as if he had thought of something, and asked, "Which one?"

“… Let's shoot the beginning of the plot!"

"The background is not suitable, the beginning of the scene should be filmed in the capital..."

"It's okay, don't underestimate the current special effects technology!"

Pao Hui didn't care much.

He is still confident in the special effects of Base FX.

"Director, can I ask you a question? Is it really necessary for us to present it in 3D?"

Chen Kun was brainwashed for a day, and he began to feel that the so-called 3D martial arts seemed to be somewhat unnecessary.

“… What do you mean?"

Cannon Hui didn't understand it a bit.

"I wonder if it's a bit of putting the cart before the horse, I watched the attitude of several Hollywood directors to 3D the other day, and they said, '3D is not necessary at all, because the movie itself is a three-dimensional representation!'"

“… When sound films and color films appeared, there were also a group of filmmakers who felt that it was not necessary, but now what about the development of technology, which is bound to push movies forward, and to put it bigger, 3D will become more and more mainstream, we don't do it, who will do it? To put it mildly, martial arts movies, swords and swords, are the most suitable for 3D effect presentation!

Xu Hui briefly explained why he had to do 3D.

To put it simply, he wants to set a benchmark!

"But, in this way, will you ignore the movie itself?"

“… No, all the technical tools are just a continuation of the image itself, my film is made for the audience to see, and it will never be deliberately show-off, in fact, I also prepare two modes, 2D and 3D at the same time, to give the audience the right to choose!"
