"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is a difficult movie to make. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Gu Wenwu had expected this. Its difficulty does not lie in how big the scene is, it is not like "Red Cliff", which is difficult to control with hundreds of thousands of group performances at every turn, and there are no big scenes in the whole film from beginning to end, but it has too high requirements for the fineness of the scene, and every shot must be considered. Especially whenever it comes to martial arts scenes, Gu Wenwu has to discuss with Yuan Heping for a long time, and after the discussion, it does not mean that this is settled, but depends on the effect and then decides whether to choose.

Gu Wenwu discussed very hard with Yuan Heping, but the actors worked even harder. Because they're the ones who really fight. Do you think it's fun to fly around in the sky and hate it, wearing a Wia suit and hanging in the sky can't come down, and it hurts, that feeling is definitely uncomfortable.

Of course, hard work is hard work, but they have no complaints. After all, to be able to mix to the point where they are, they all have professionalism. No one complained, let alone used a stand-in. can be on but ask for a stand-in, in the entertainment industry at this time, it is a very embarrassing thing, once this matter spreads, your reputation will immediately drop a notch, who will come to you for filming.

Now it is the scene where Yu Jiaolong steals the Qingying Sword late at night, and Yu Xiulian chases after hearing the sound. Before this scene, there was also a martial arts scene between Yu Jiaolong and the royal palace. This fight scene is relatively short, and the filming is relatively relaxed. But when the rooftop chase scene between Yu Xiulian and Yu Jiaolong was filmed, the difficulty immediately rose by more than one level.

How to make this scene look brilliant is a problem that Gu Wenwu must consider. This scene is the first climax of this movie. If this scene is not brilliant enough to catch the audience's attention, then you don't need to think about what the consequences will be.

"Teacher Yuan, in this chase scene, my idea is that Yu Jiaolong is on top, Yu Xiulian is below, Yu Jiaolong is flying around on the roof, and the movements should be elegant and beautiful, and Yu Xiulian In order to catch up with Yu Jiaolong, the movements should be concise and effective, no matter how it looks, in short, let the audience feel that she is desperately chasing, and this chase is effective." Gu Wenwu and Yuan Heping elaborated their thoughts in detail. Action design is Yuan Heping's business, but Gu Wenwu has to set a direction with Yuan Heping, otherwise it will depend on the actors to try the best effect over and over again, which is undoubtedly time-consuming and laborious, and he is not the king of sunglasses.

After listening to Gu Wenwu's words, Yuan Heping thought about it seriously. Years of experience in martial arts allowed him to quickly design movements that corresponded to the effects Gu Wenwu wanted.

"Director Gu, you see if this will work, Yu Jiaolong has been running on the roof in this chase scene, and the action is like a dragonfly dotting water, little by little, and Yu Xiulian is like a jade Jiaolong, chasing her on the roof, but after finding that she can't catch up like this, she jumped off the roof, took a shortcut and chased her again, and in the process of chasing her, she also flew off the wall, and finally intercepted Yu Jiaolong." Yuan Heping said as he showed Gu Wenwu the movements he designed, and Gu Wenwu nodded again and again.

"Yes, let's try it first." Gu Wenwu said with satisfaction.

Naturally, it is impossible to shoot this kind of scene in one shot, but one action and one shot, and then connect these shots through post-processing. For example, Yu Jiaolong jumped from this roof to that roof, and the picture flashed from the finished film, and the movements were elegant and smooth, but the actual shooting was not like that. You have to shoot the shot of Jade Jiaolong on this rooftop, then shoot the shot of her jumping, and then shoot the shot of her on the other roof. Zhang Ziyi has to jump between several rooftops while hanging Weiya, and always maintain the grace of his movements, in case the movements are deformed, he has to start again. But Yang Ziqiong is even harder than her, because she not only has to jump on the roof, but also fly the eaves and walk the wall, go up and down from the roof, down and up, and carry a 100-meter sprint in the middle, and it is not a straight 100-meter sprint. In short, this scene is down, and it can't be tossed for both of them.

This scene of the rooftop chase alone took a whole day to shoot, eight cameras and two aerial cameras, and the continuous capture finally made Gu Wenwu see the effect he wanted.

"Teacher Yuan, we may have to work overtime tonight, we have to design the action of the two heroines tomorrow, this fight is the end of this small climax, and it can't be anticlimactic." Gu Wenwu said.

"Okay, no problem." Yuan Heping nodded, this was his business.

The next day, the fight between Yu Xiulian and Yu Jiaolong was filmed for another whole day. If it were another movie, Gu Wenwu would definitely not be like this. But this movie is different. If you want to hit the Oscars, you can't have the slightest flaw. Especially in this kind of most important scene, there can be no slackness. Gu Wenwu hopes that he will do better.

Of course, the reason why Gu Wenwu dared to grind so much was because the filming of other scenes was too smooth. The reason why good actors in the entertainment industry are so popular is because it is really easy to have a good actor. You don't have to go out of your way to talk about how this scene should behave, and you won't NG one after another, let alone make some inexplicable moths. In short, it's one word, fast. In addition, Gu Wenwu is not in a hurry, because no matter how much he rushes, he will not be able to catch up with next year's Oscar.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is a martial arts film, and there are many martial arts scenes. One of the most classic is naturally the ten-mile bamboo forest duel. But in addition to this bamboo forest duel, there are many classic fighting scenes, such as the duel between Yu Xiulian and Yu Jiaolong, Yu Xiulian changed a variety of weapons, each of which made the fire perfect, such as the four-person duel in the Buddhist temple, four different martial arts styles are dizzying, and for example, Yu Jiaolong broke through the rivers and lakes, clashed with some people in the rivers and lakes, and fought while reciting poems. These important plays have to be grinded by Gu Wenwu little by little until he is satisfied.

……

"Director Gu, I want to take two days off." Zhou Yan said.

As soon as Gu Wenwu announced that today's shooting was over, he saw Zhou Runfa walking towards him, and he was surprised in his heart why he hadn't left yet, when he heard this.

"Excuse me, can you tell me why?" Gu Wenwu said. Zhou Runfa is the leading actor, and suddenly asking for leave will inevitably disrupt the shooting plan that has been scheduled.

Zhou Yunfa was also a little embarrassed: "Isn't this Zhang Yimou's "The City Full of Golden Armor" is going to be released, he said that the premiere will be held the day after tomorrow, so he asked me if I had time to attend." ”

""The City Full of Golden Armor" is about to be released, as the actor, you have to go, no problem, go early and come back early, by the way, I will say hello to Director Zhang Yimou on my behalf, and wish him a big hit in his new film." Gu Wenwu said. As a director, he can still understand this kind of thing.

"I will." Although he was surprised by the relationship between Gu Wenwu and Zhang Yimou, Zhou Yunfa still smiled and agreed.

"I don't know if Lao Mouzi's "The City Full of Golden Armor" can break my box office record." Gu Wenwu muttered secretly in his heart.

In the previous life, the movie "Full of Golden Armor" set a new box office high for Chinese films, but I don't know if it can break the record created by "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" in this world.
