The plot of the big scene of cold weapons, to be honest, there are not many in "Painted Skin", but a few battle scenes are added by Wang Meng in this life.

The scene pattern in the previous life was much smaller, and Wang Meng didn't think like that this time.

This version of the showdown of thousands of troops and horses can be described as Hongda.

The team of nearly 1,000 people, plus the addition of CG diagonally after framing, are all made of special effects.

Like the "**** Kingdom", "The Lord of the Rings", "Rome", and "Three Hundred Warriors" in the previous life, the scene of the duel between the two armies is not shocking.

This time, "Painted Skin", like the "Lord of the Rings" in the previous life, has a human army, a team led by Huo Xindai played by Wang Meng, and a team from the Sirius Kingdom.

And the team of the Sirius Kingdom is like the orc army in "The Lord of the Rings", in short, they are outrageously dressed and wear horned hats.

Yan Ran looked like a demon.

For such a scene, there are nearly 200 people in the makeup team alone.

Since the scene in the play is at night, it is also for the clarity of the picture, and it is better and clearer to shoot.

Wang Meng used the most advanced 4K shooting mode at present.

4K resolution is the pixel resolution of 4096*2160, which is 4 times the resolution of 2K projectors and HDTV, and belongs to ultra-high-definition resolution.

At this resolution, the viewer will be able to see every detail in the picture, every close-up. If the theater uses an astonishing 4096*2160 pixels, no matter where in the theater, the audience can clearly see every detail of the picture, the film is colorful, the text is clear and sharp, and with the ultra-real sound effect, this feeling is really an indescribable enjoyment.

4K resolution refers to the horizontal value of 4096 pixels per line, and in most cases, it refers to 4096/2160 resolution.

According to the different scope of use, 4K resolution also has a variety of derivative resolutions, such as 3656*2664 of FullAperture4K and 3840*2160 of UHDTV standard, all of which belong to the category of 4K resolution.

However, there are also problems with 4K shooting, and ordinary 35mm film obviously cannot meet the requirements of 4K resolution.

And the only thing that can really reach 4K resolution is 70mm film.

For this reason, Wang Meng had to use 70mm film to shoot, in addition to the national teacher in "The City with Golden Armor", a small part of the use of 70mm film, Wang Meng belongs to the second.

But after all, there are few national teachers, and they are only used for big scenes.

Wang Meng is different, except for the simple small lens that uses 65mm film. The rest, including the big scenes, and the night scenes, were all shot on 70mm film.

This is also the reason why the investment is so large, although the film does not cost much, but it can shoot a 70mm camera, and some series of developed copies are several times that of 35mm.

OF COURSE, WANG MENG ALSO WANTS TO ACCUMULATE EXPERIENCE AND PREPARE FOR 3D/LMAX/75MM/GIANT SCREEN IN THE FUTURE.

The filming of Zhenbei Fort determines the success or failure of "Painted Skin".

Wang Meng also experienced such a big scene for the first time.

With less than ten minutes of footage here, Wang Meng expects to spend at least half a month, and this is still if everything goes well.

this day.

Wang Meng came to check the rehearsal of the 'army' in the play.

Wu Ershan had a week of early Wang Meng, came to the filming base of Zhenbei Fort, and followed the 'army' to contact. Wang Meng has a scene to appear, and Wu Ershan must be up, so when he saw Wang Meng coming, Wu Ershan ran over.

Also coming with him was the commander-in-chief of this training, the commander of a company of a certain unit.

"Director Wang, you're finally here."

Wu Ershan was originally a very literary and artistic young man, but he was embarrassed by Wang Meng.

After all...... If you don't care about this kind of scene, you have to check the rehearsal situation every day, and you have to familiarize yourself with high-end cameras and top technology every day.

"Director Wang, this is Company Commander Hao, and this training and the cooperation of the troops are thanks to him." Wu Ershan introduced Wang Meng to the 'head of the coach' Hao Company.

"Thank you Company Commander Hao for your great help, if it weren't for your training here, we ordinary people really wouldn't be able to do it." Wang Meng is very grateful to this Hao Company Commander.

Fortunately, there are military personnel who specialize in this art to guide him, otherwise he would be black.

With a "bang", the company commander Hao gave a military salute and said, "Report to the chief, this is my responsibility." ”

This person is connected by the third master through a relationship, and he is not only good at ground training, but also good at cavalry training on horses.

But...... The demeanor of the soldiers is too powerful, and it is as strict as ever, no problem for a small number of soldiers, but those tricks are bitter, Yanran is not training tricks, but training.

Wang Meng had received complaints from several group leaders, saying that it was too bitter, but after Wang Meng said a word to increase the money, they all stopped.

For this soldier, Hao Company Commander Wang Meng admires it very much, but the way of dialogue is very awkward.

"Company Commander Hao, I'm not a chief, I'm just a director, don't do this." Wang Meng smiled bitterly, this military salute and the 'report chief' scared Wang Meng.

"The superior chief said that the director is the chief and obeys the director's command." Company Commander Hao was unmoved, and still went his own way.

Wang Meng had no choice but to ask about the specific situation.

"Report to the chief, after a month and ten days of training, we basically mastered the essentials, and according to the guidance of Comrade Professor, we achieved the marching pace of the Han Dynasty, as well as the posture of the horse. Seventeen people were injured during the period, and 12 people were injured after falling from a horse. Twenty-four people have recovered so far, and five have withdrawn from training due to serious injuries. According to the instructions of the head of the assistant director, the lack of five people does not hinder progress......"

This Hao Company Commander made a report to Wang Meng, and Wang Meng briefly informed him.

After that, Wu Ershan reported on the preparation for filming, the damage to the equipment and the situation of the crew.

There are generally no accidents, and the shooting can be done as scheduled.

The big scene is not just about starting filming, and it is also very strict about the quality of the weather.

Assumption - it doesn't work when it's raining, it's not windy, it's not okay when there's dust.

In short, several experts from the Meteorological Bureau followed up with the crew and provided Wang Meng with weather research.

In addition to these, it is the makeup team, a makeup team of hundreds of people, Wang Meng has been looking for a long time to find it.

For the big scene, for the sake of refinement. This time the army scene is either dozens of people on TV or the army, and then it looks very bullish through the capture of the camera.

Wang Meng is going to shoot long shots, how do you shoot long shots if you find three melons and two dates, it's purely looking for death.

Today's dynamic simulation, 3D simulation, and expression sensing capture have not yet reached the level of post-2010 technology.

Therefore, the big scene has to rely on people.

Of course, you can also use special effects, but ...... Special effects cost more money than people, so Wang Meng naturally chose people.

Don't look at the shocking shots of "The Lord of the Rings", although it is a few minutes or even less than a minute, it is just a few simple minutes, and the money spent is absolutely astronomical.

Why is that? That kind of scene is very shocking, everyone loves to watch it, but there are not many reasons in the plot.

Because it's so expensive!

"Director Wang, according to our preparation and the prediction of meteorological experts, we will be able to shoot the day after tomorrow. It is expected that in the next half month, the weather will not be subject to major changes, and the makeup team and the dragon team are also preparing to shoot the day after tomorrow. Wu Ershan said.

"Well, that's the hardest part, as long as you get this part over, the next part is easy to shoot in the studio, or shoot in the interior. The actors are also prepared, especially Fei Xiang, you go and give more guidance, his role here is very important. ”

"Okay Director Wang, I'll take a look later."

Wang Meng has not filmed other plots in the past two days.

Instead, I decided to finish filming this big scene first.

Or? People are spending here, and they spend every day.

Moreover, this expense is also a distressing figure.

In terms of actors, with the beginning of the big scene, several leading actors and the main supporting actors all appeared together, so the cooperation of the actors is also particularly important.

Especially the rookie actors, Feng Shaofeng and Liu Shishi.

Recently, the two have improved, and they have improved a lot.

But the shooting the day after tomorrow is very important, Zhou Xun and Zhao Wei dare not be sloppy, let alone the two.

Therefore, this - the scenery of 'the desert is lonely and straight, and the sun sets over the long river', no one comes to enjoy it.

This scene is also the last scene in the play "Painted Skin", and the mentality of the actors will change with the progress of filming.

For example, the front is a very happy scene, so the layout of the camera and the mentality of the actors also reveal a kind of happiness everywhere.

But! The ending is a sad parting scene, so the layout of the shots and the mentality of the actors must also be changed.

This point depends on the acting skills of the actor himself, and you have to change. Moreover, it still changes with the change of the plot.

For these actors, Wang Meng trusts Zhao Wei and Zhou Xun, and through more than a month of filming, Wang Meng has learned about their acting skills.

is also glad to spend a lot of money to find the two of them to star.

The salary is worthy of their acting skills, and everything is the scene that Wang Meng is looking forward to.

Even if it is wrong, it will change quickly after being corrected and pointed out by yourself.

Top actors are different!

When he came to Zhou Xun, Zhou Xun was holding his notebook and watching a video, and he seemed to be in a good state of mind.

The video is, a promotional video from some time ago.

Seeing Wang Meng coming in, Zhou Xun said: "The first time I shot such a special effects movie, when I was shooting in the studio, I didn't feel anything, but I didn't expect it to be so shocking after the assembly of special effects." ”

Zhou Xun is talking about the video some time ago.

Truly!

When I made that video, it was boring.

It's against the green cloth, where there is no physical shooting.

Who would have thought that after the special effects, it would be so shocking.

"This is the mainstream of future films, and the film actors of the future will be able to do everything in the studio. We also have scenes of live shooting. Those with full special effects can be done in the studio. However, don't look at it, it's very simple, this is very sophisticated in acting. Moreover, the cost is hesitant to be hesitant compared to live shooting, or even more. ”

"I know." Zhou Xun said, and said to Wang Meng: "By the way, what are you looking for me?" ”

"Oh, let me tell you about the hardest part of Painted Skin the day after tomorrow. It is expected that the next half a month to twenty days will be very tiring, I hope you can understand. ”

Saying this, Zhou Xun understood.

"Don't worry, although I don't come from a professional college, I know the quality of an actor."

"Thank you for your understanding, not just the big scene. After shooting, there are special effects to fill in, plus this shooting equipment 4K and 70mm film shooting, I don't have much experience, not only you are very tired, but I am not easy. Hopefully, we can work together to get through this. ”

Wang Meng said what was in his heart, he didn't know the bottom of the shooting the day after tomorrow, the equipment was very unfamiliar, the scene was very grand, not to mention some unpredictable aspects, he also had no bottom in his heart.

"I understand. Not to mention you, this is the first time in such a production in China, as the first, it can also be said that the first group, this is our glory. I'm a very competitive person, and I'm very bold. Hehe......"

Zhou Xun said with a smile.

However, Zhou Xun is not joking when she is competitive and has the courage to try this, she is indeed such a person.

And suddenly Zhou Xun thought of something, turned his head to Wang Meng and said, "By the way, I heard that the horror film "Chainsaw" has been completed, and the editing is almost done. I heard you say it's weird and scary, let's go and see? ”

As if to prove his bravery, Zhou Xun asked Wang Mengdao.

Wang Meng was stunned!

"Are you sure?"

"What? Can you still scare me? Call Zhao Wei, Feng Shaofeng, and Xiao Shishi as well, let's all go and have a look, and let go of our bodies and minds. Zhou Xun said.

After the filming of "Chainsaw" was completed, Liu Zhi came to Zhenbei Fort with the developed footage, and the editing with Wang Meng for five days has been completed.

However, the opening and ending and the dubbing of subtitles are not yet complete.

But? Look, you can see it.

When Zhou Xun asked, Wang Meng smiled, this was not what he said, it was Zhou Xun who said it.

To tell the truth, Wang Meng and Liu Zhiyuan have been editing these days, maybe Wang Meng is indeed not the material for shooting horror films.

In the past few days, Wang Meng, who has repeatedly pulled the piece to look at the blood/plasma, dismemberment/dissolution, and watching, is furious.

This is not?

As soon as it is done, I will come out for a stroll in the sun, wanting to rely on the sun to drive away, the horror of these days.

"Go ahead, I'll be waiting in the screening room." Since Zhou Xun wanted to see it, Wang Meng naturally agreed.

After a while, a group of more than a dozen people gathered.

But an hour and a half later, Zhou Xun and Zhao Wei came out with a little pale face.

Feng Shaofeng tried his best to be restrained, but looking at his expression, he could see that his psychology was hairy?

And Liu Shishi is crying, and she bends over and vomits from time to time, which looks outrageous.

Only Liu Zhiyuan is like a nobody, and he has a sense of accomplishment when he sees the stars who are scared by his movies.

But! ...... the people who have seen it? After that, I was a little scared of Liu Zhiyuan, how to look at it and how I felt that Liu Zhiyuan looked like a 'pervert'.

"Director Wang, how can you have such a script, my God, who dares to read this, Zhou Xun is killed. I'm going to bask in the sun, or I'm afraid I'll delay the filming the day after tomorrow. After coming out, Zhao Wei said to Wang Meng a little depressed.

At the same time, he looked at Zhou Xun speechlessly, who also hadn't come back to his senses.

I thought: - Why did you ask me to come and see this, it's too perverted and scary, I can't forget it for a while, and even some shots will accompany me for a long time.

"This, you say, look, I have the right to be everyone's axe, I didn't expect it to be so outrageous. This is still no dubbing, there is no fine coarse version, and it will be better after dubbing. Wang Meng said.

"Wow......" Liu Shishi cried.

"Ahem...... It seems that we did a good job, Lao Liu seized the time to streamline the dubbing, and it was released on May Day. Wang Meng said to Liu Zhiyuan.

The actors were in no mood and left.
