Chapter 147: You Have to Be Careful When Making Movies (Ask for Subscription!)
?“ All departments are ready, the sixty-second scene is one shot, action!"
In a cave on the Genting Grand Canyon, Jiang Liuer saw that Sun Wukong was poked in the cave by a stone and couldn't move, so he ran towards him with all his might.
"Great Sage, I'm here to save you!"
"Click, do it again!"
"Xiaosong, you read the wrong line!" Shi Xiaosong was stopped by Li Mu as soon as he finished reading the line.
Jiang Liu'er touched her head embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, uncle!"
Li Mu didn't blame him too much, just let the crew start over.
"Great Sage, what can I do for you?"
"Who asked you to come over, what are you doing when you come back? Hurry up, all!" As soon as Jiang Liu'er's words fell, Sun Wukong mentioned him, and after putting on makeup, his eyes looked even bigger.
"But you said yes, we're going to go together!" Jiang Liu'er said with a firm expression.
Sun Wukong put him down, "Fool, you forgot, I'm the Monkey King, I won't die!"
Hearing Sun Wukong personally say that he was the Monkey King, Jiang Liuer held his hand excitedly, he unreservedly believed in the Monkey King, believed in the person who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace back then, believed in everything he said, and firmly took him as a belief.
"Click, over!"
"Ready for the next one!"
The time has come to November 10th, and today is the last day of filming for the crew of "The Return of the Great Sage", which lasted more than five months and more than 130 days, and the on-site shooting of this film is finally going to be completed.
On the last day, both Li Mu and the rest of the crew looked very serious, no one had any extra words, and did their own thing in an orderly manner.
The scenes of several supporting roles have long ended, but Deng Chao and Chen Qiaoen still stayed in the crew and did not return to the capital.
Chen Qiaoen wanted to watch more of the filming of the movie, after all, this was her first movie, and there were still so few scenes, so she didn't have enough experience at all.
And Deng Chao was a little puzzled when he saw that Jiang Liuer had just said a wrong line and was stopped by Li Mu, "Mr. Li, is there any difference between the lines in the scene just now, "Great Sage, I'm here to save you" and "Great Sage, can I help you?"
While the crew was preparing, Li Mu also had time to chat with him, but he didn't answer directly, but looked at the people around him and said, "Do you think there is a difference between these two lines?"
"I think the meaning is almost the same, in fact, there is no need to shoot one more just now, it's a waste of time!" Chen Qiaoen thought for a while and said.
Assistant director Qin Pengfei also has the same opinion, "I also don't understand, we can have a lot of scenes before, why does Mr. Li have to shoot several more times?"
Chen Qiaoen couldn't understand it, but it was expected by Li Mu, but Qin Pengfei, who had been an assistant director for five months, didn't understand, which made Li Mu a little disappointed, it seems that he still can't take charge on his own, and he has to continue to exercise.
Under the puzzled gaze of the three people, Li Mu began to explain to them, "In fact, many of the details in front of me are to show Jiang Liuer's character, in front of them were chased and killed by the mountain demon After fleeing, Fa Ming pushed the stone lion hard, but he was trapped under the stone statue, Jiang Liuer called Master, and ran away without looking back, in fact, this detail is one of the highlights of the whole film. Why do I say it's a highlight? Because there are too many people who come across similar plots in other film and television works and call Master and then don't leave, wasting their opportunities and time. If he runs away without saying a word to the master, it is called a white-eyed wolf. If he calls Master and doesn't leave, he must run away with Master, then he is no different from other protagonists. But he didn't, he called Master, and realized that if he ran away now, he would be able to save Master, and Master was still alive and not dead, so he ran away without looking back, in order to save himself and save Master. This seems very simple, but the reason why it is difficult to do is obvious - people who call out the master usually do not turn around and run, and many of them do not have that IQ or are simply naïve to the point of stupidity. People who don't call generally don't care about the lives of others, as long as they are alive. And Jiang Liuer is not any of them. What is the most important thing in troubled times? It is not family affection, love and friendship, but living. Only by living can we pursue these things, isn't it? He has always been very sensible and sensible to the point that people feel a little distressed. ”
Li Mu said a lot in one breath and was also a little thirsty, picked up the cup next to him, and poured a large mouthful of cold boiled water.
After listening to Li Mu's tirade, Deng Chao immediately understood, "I see, this detail is the same as what Mr. Li said, it is all to show Jiang Liuer's bravery and kindness rather than a hot-blooded idiot!"
And Qin Pengfei also looked thoughtful, nodding from time to time.
Seeing that they could understand after a little dialing, Li Mu was also very happy.
On the contrary, Chen Qiaoen still looked confused, "But what does that have to do with these two lines?"
Before Li Mu could speak this time, Deng Chao replied in his place, "It should be that the previous experience made him understand that even if he is weak, there are things that can be done, so he went, not because he thought that he could rescue the Great Sage, but because he felt that he could help the Great Sage, even if it was only a little bit, it was good." ”
Li Mu nodded secretly and said, "These are the details that make Jiang Liu'er naïve but not stupid, kind but not pretentious, sincere but not pretentious, brave and not reckless." You must know that commercial movies have compact plots, unlike those literary films, which can spend a lot of plot to show the character's state, mental activities, and character character, so we can only work on the details, after all, what the audience wants to see is a wonderful storyline and gorgeous special effects scenes, and they don't want to see so much foreshadowing. ”
Li Mu said it so carefully that Chen Qiaoen understood, but he had a new question, "But it's difficult for ordinary audiences to understand this, after all, everyone doesn't go back and pay attention to these details carefully when they watch the movie!"
Khan, this is filming, how do you feel like you're giving them a lesson?
Seeing that the crew was not ready, Li Mu told them again, "Many people think that why should they be so serious when making a movie, and it is a waste to set up so many hidden details that the audience can't see." To put it mildly, let me give you an analogy, this matter is the same as falling in love, your partner has done a lot for you silently behind your back, this is called distraction, this is called true love. Then one day pretending to accidentally let your friend find out, and then your friend told you the truth... This is called marketing, when the movie was first released, everyone may not have found these details, but as time slowly passes, more and more audiences enter the cinema, and there will always be some people who will find these details and write them out, whether it is the circle of friends, Weibo, or Tieba, so that more people will find these details!"
"Mr. Li, you can really talk about it, making a movie can be confused with falling in love, but I'm afraid it's you who announces these details!" Chen Qiaoen said with a smile.
Li Mu didn't say anything, and snorted, "It's all for publicity, the crew is ready to continue filming!"
