On the set of TZ "Crime in the Heart", Li Xiuping kept writing and drawing with a notebook, he wrote some precautions to remind himself, and drew some storyboard pictures to enrich the ideas in his mind.

As the filming time of the second season of "Guilty in the Heart" is getting longer and longer, both the actors and the crew are slowly entering the state, and Li Xiuping, the director, also has various ideas from time to time, as long as he has inspiration, he will write them down. From Wan Wan to the first season of "Sin in the Heart", and now to the second season, Li Xiuping hopes that every shooting will improve, so he wants to try as much as possible, and he is looking for better image narrative methods every day, especially during this period of time, such thoughts are especially strong, and he even has a thirsty attitude towards this.

The reason why Li Xiuping is so eager to improve his directing level is not only that he wants to clearly see his progress from the bottom of his heart, but also that he hopes that the second season of "Guilty in the Heart" will be better and more eye-catching. The plot of the second season of "Sin in the Heart" is slowly deepening, and the protagonists will experience more and more. But in the final analysis, crime dramas are always a model, that is, when encountering problems, making choices, and solving problems, such a routine model, not to mention whether the audience will get tired of watching it, anyway, Li Xiuping always has a feeling, that is, it can be better, and routine things can also be shaped more attractive through subtle techniques.

It is precisely because of these ideas that Li Xiuping has been constantly recalling the methods of film masters during this time. Like Akira Kurosawa, he has perfected the realm and used concise techniques to shoot the essence of the story, which Li Xiuping may not be able to achieve in his lifetime; like Quentin who uses wonderful editing to cut an ordinary story into vivid and incomparably vivid, Li Xiuping may have to learn for decades; like Nolan, Li Xiuping may never be able to reverse and reverse again.

Thinking about it, Li Xiuping tragically found that he can't imitate the creative ideas of film masters without talking about learning now, and his realm as a primary school student naturally can't understand the thinking of top experts. However, Li Xiuping was not discouraged, he knew that he was so ambitious before, and it would definitely not work if he wanted to imitate the filming techniques of world-class film masters, but he could make a breakthrough in a small detail, and this small detail that Li Xiuping chose was the use of the lens.

Lens language is a profound art, Chinese directors Wong Kar-wai and Hou Hsiao-hsien can be said to be the world's top masters of lens language, Wong Kar-wai is especially good at color and long lens scheduling, different colors, different luminosity, different perspectives often have different meanings, carefully excavate a kind of pleasure of problem solving and upgrading. Hou Hsiao-hsien also likes to use a lot of long shots, and he uses more ordinary real scenes, but under his lens, there is an indescribable sense of history, as if a stray dog on the side of the road has a touching story.

Whether it is Wong Kar-wai or Hou Hsiao-hsien, their use of the camera must throw Li Xiuping I don't know how many mountains, and Li Xiuping doesn't know if he can achieve the ability to express artistic conception with the lens like them in his life, so even if Li Xiuping decides to work the camera, it is actually only the most basic push-pull pan.

Ordinary people pick up a mobile phone, turn on the camera function, and they can shoot back and forth, left, right, and right, so it seems that the so-called push, pull, and pan are not difficult. In fact, it is true that people with normal IQ can do it, but how to better apply these skills to filming and better tell the story of the film is not something that ordinary people can do.

Especially in the new century when idol dramas and anti-Japanese dramas are dominant, the vast majority of them are flat and straightforward shooting, and these film and television dramas with no innovation and no research have to be discarded even the most basic lens use, I have to say that the current director level is really low and outrageous!

What Li Xiuping has to do now is to use the most basic shooting skills to improve the texture of the second season of "Sin in the Heart".

Some readers may wonder, since it is the most basic, why can't the directors of idol dramas use it, will they not use it, or is it meaningless to use these basic lenses?

Li Xiuping doesn't know if the director of idol dramas will use it, but the basic lens language is definitely useful and very important.

For example, the advancement of the camera generally represents a close-up, which is about to convey important emotions, in which the speed of advancement is different and has different expressions. In the past, there were often such clips in old martial arts movies, that is, the camera advanced rapidly, from the middle shot to the close-up, and the protagonist made an "ah" sound, showing a surprised expression. In addition, the camera can also be slowly advanced, this is generally used in horror films, the lens advances slowly, the image becomes more and more concentrated, more and more clear, just when the audience stares with wide eyes, a terrifying face suddenly appears and scares the audience half to death.

Another example is the back-pull of the lens, the same back-pull speed is different, and the effect is different. In the past, HK old martial arts movies often used fast pullback, so that the space was suddenly opened, accompanied by the actors performing light skills and jumping high, would give the audience a feeling that the light skills were very fast and powerful. And the slow backlash is generally carried out from the perspective of the character, expressing the character's reluctance to be nervous and terrifying.

Whether the camera is advancing or pulling back, it is changing the image space, all in order to convey different levels of feelings to the audience, the Hollywood film "Buried Alive" The use of the lens is taken to the extreme, the male protagonist is alone in the coffin, doing all kinds of things, although the story is full of wonderful twists, but such a picture is actually very boring, after all, the whole film is only the male protagonist alone, but the director grasps the audience's heart all the time through the superb use of lenses, so although Li Xiuping just wants to make progress in the most basic use of lenses, as long as he can do it, it can definitely improve the texture of the second season of "Sin in the Heart".

Li Xiuping now has an idea, that is, to rotate the camera, shoot from the left to the right of the heroine, and completely record the psychological changes of the heroine. In terms of light, it goes from dark to bright, from the dark side of the room to the sun-facing side, and the heroine's expression changes from sad to determined.

The plot of this section is that after the heroine follows the male protagonist through a case, when facing the second case, when she is at the scene of the crime, she transforms from an ordinary person to a desire to help the male protagonist.

The heroine is naturally a female psychiatrist, and the actor is still Jiang Shuying.

After Li Xiuping received a call from Gao Gaoshan, he thought that Jiang Shuying was leaving, but the next day Ding Xiang sent a message to Li Xiuping saying that he had something to do and left for two days and would not send breakfast for the time being, which made Li Xiuping even more sure that he was going to immediately prepare another actress, and he didn't want Ding Xiang to continue preparing breakfast on the third day, and then Li Xiuping knew what happened from Ding Xiang's mouth.

Li Xiuping also received a call from Ma Jingfei that night, and he found that Ma Jingfei did this because of him. It turned out that Ma Jingfei thought that Jiang Shuying liked Li Xiuping, so he left sadly, but then a fake scene between Da Mi Mi and Li Xiuping broke the news, Ma Jingfei thought that Li Xiuping had a girlfriend, and his opportunity came again, this time after many considerations, he decided to invest in a better film and television drama and let Jiang Shuying be the heroine, so as to separate Li Xiuping and Jiang Shuying, so that his pursuit of Jiang Shuying would be smoother, in order to make the plan go smoothly, Ma Jingfei not only quickly contacted Director Han Xiaoguo, but also made the relationship between Jiang Shuying's family.

Li Xiuping couldn't cry or laugh after hearing this, he solemnly reiterated that he didn't like Jiang Shuying, and the relationship between the two was ordinary colleagues, which reassured Ma Jingfei, and Ma Jingfei said that he would go back to TZ to chase Jiang Shuying after this busy period, hoping that Li Xiuping would not be angry with Jiang Shuying because of this matter, and Li Xiuping naturally agreed.

Li Xiuping really didn't care about Jiang Shuying's previous idea of wanting to leave the crew of "Guilty in the Heart", he just wanted to shoot better results, but Jiang Shuying didn't think so.

In the dressing room on the set of "Sin in the Heart", Jiang Shuying frowned and pondered the next shooting, Ding Xiang asked distressedly: "Yingying, is it really difficult?"

"Well, it's difficult, I'm sure I can do something sad and determined, but other film and television dramas are generally switched by editing, and they can be made one expression at a time. And Li Xiuping is now going to have a natural change of emotions in a second or two, he wants to record it completely, this is really too difficult, this guy must be deliberately making things difficult for me. ”

"What then?"

"Wasn't that what I was thinking?"

"Do you want me to talk to Li Xiuping? ”

"No, I will never beg him for mercy. ”

"What then?"

"I'll think about it myself, Ding Xiang, you immediately use the computer to search for classic facial performance clips for me now, Liang Chaowei and Zhang Manyu's performances. ”

"Okay, don't worry, you can do it. ”

"I hope so......"
