Chapter 57: The Advantages of Huaxia House

If every shot of the film had been formed in mind, the director's shooting efficiency would have reached Caesar's current schedule.

Because of the development machine inside him, any image that Caesar imagines will be preserved with precision, and he will call on it when he needs it.

Combined with the plots of "Die Hard 1" and "Max Payne" in his previous life, Caesar has thought of every shot, and it can be said that except for the opening and ending credits, it is already a complete film.

All Caesar had to do was simple, to replicate the footage in his head through the work of the entire crew.

And it's the kind of shot sequence that has been highly integrated and arranged in the most scientific way of time management.

In this way, in the eyes of others, Caesar is a high-speed shooting in a completely off-script state.

The camera is all in the head, what script do you need?

Brush, brush, brush, in a week, Caesar has already completed a third of the progress.

In general, a visual work, from video news, documentaries, TV dramas to films, is divided into one-third to one-twentieth proportions, depending on the subject matter and the style of the producer.

In other words, if a complete film is 90 minutes long at the maximum scale, then when the director finishes shooting, the length of all the films is 90 minutes multiplied by 20, which is 30 hours of footage.

After editing, the thirty hours were compressed into a ninety-minute essence.

This is also the reason why the shooting cycle of many big-budget movies is particularly long. Of course, this also has a lot to do with the level and style of the director.

Many awesome directors are bulls who know what to do, and they shoot few random materials. Some newcomers or those who are not good at the level need to shoot more materials, and even shoot a lot of empty shots that have little value.

Caesar, who has already finished filming in his heart, can basically control the proportion of the material within one-third.

This is still because the crew is not running in enough, there are too many goofs and ng shots, and there are a lot of retake shots of the director, otherwise this ratio will be compressed, and even reach one-half.

With this efficiency, Stallone Eastwood, the two executive producers, and the staff of these perennial mixed crews basically looked at Caesar with monster eyes almost every day.

This efficiency is no one else in the film and television industry, and it is rare that the two assistant directors who have to watch the filmed film after the end of each day can't find any flaws at all.

Except for those parts that need to be done with special effects when the film is being washed, Caesar basically washes it out on the same day.

Basically, after a film is shot in 10 minutes, the filmed film will be washed immediately when it is replaced with a new one.

At the end of each day, the editor had cut out the NG and goofs. Wait until Caesar goes through the materials he already has before he goes home, so he knows what he knows.

At this time, the two assistant directors will watch it with Caesar.

This time of day is the happiest time for the two assistant directors, and many of Caesar's shots are from the rhythm style of the nineties of the previous life, although not as good as many blockbusters after the millennium, but compared to the warm eighties films, Caesar's shots are significantly faster and sharper.

And more inspiration and ideas from anime and game CG give these effective shots shot by Caesar a more intense personal touch.

You can't learn this feeling unless you copy it completely, and if you want to borrow and integrate your own style, no one can do it yet.

Because this is the United States in the 80s, no one has experienced the information explosion in the Internet age, let alone the Chinese-style Internet explosion.

In 2015, which Caesar experienced, if a person has been in contact with some Chinese otaku and European and American otaku at the same time, without the language barrier, you will have amazing discoveries after chatting for only one hour.

The amount of reading and games of a Chinese otaku can be several times or even more than ten times that of a European and American otaku.

Note! This is by no means alarmist.

Because of the different copyright management and piracy policies of the studios, as long as they have time and an Internet cable, plus electricity and Internet bills, they can enjoy 99% of the world's games and audio-visual products without paying a penny.

In addition to finding some ghost animal videos for self-amusement on the oil turtles, European and American otaku have to spend money to watch everything.

Want to spend no money? As long as your technology can guarantee that you will never be detected by a pirated monitoring system, you can do it completely without spending money.

However, as soon as your computer system pops up a pop-up window like "Sorry because you're watching pirated content, the video is closing, and the system is locked", congratulations, you can pick up the phone and call a lawyer.

Aside from those who are gifted, the amount of reading by most ordinary people represents this aesthetic level.

When I was a child, I watched "Sheriff Black Cat", "Shuke Beta" and "Journey to the West", which was simply a waste of sleep and food, and I never got tired of it.

Looking back now, "Attack on Titan", "Avengers" and "Avatar" are no longer enjoyable.

It's not that you're old, it's that the number of films you have read is already "massive", and nothing can bluff you.

Many people say that the prices of games and audio-visual products in Europe and the United States are very cheap compared with those in China, and the number of films read is not necessarily small.

You must know that cheap never means free, and any country is poor to be the majority, and the middle class of the jujube kernel society in the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Japan may be the majority.

But in most countries, the middle class and the poor will always be the majority, and if the poor and the middle class spend all their money on audiovisual entertainment, it will definitely be a very burdensome expense.

They will always have to choose to enjoy entertainment, which is also the origin of the box office wars.

In a summer file, fans have so much budget, it is likely that they can't watch Fox after watching Disney's films.

Because the rest of the money still has to participate in the pie duì, travel and vacation, drink and pick up girls.

Those summer films are not falling, and the hardcore fans and local tyrants who have held these blockbusters down and bled one by one are a minority after all.

Caesar never dreamed that under the influence of Huaxia's copyright policy, Huaxia's well-informed characteristics could not only be used in Kanshan's ability to suppress Western houses, but also in creation.

When creating this movie in his mind, Caesar was almost always in a state of inspiration, not to mention film and television, just pick a similar shot from any game CG or anime work, and he could crush the creative concept of this era.

Caesar only needs to filter shots that look uniform and are not obtrusive in the film.

As for borrowing from films such as "The Matrix", "Two Old Smoking Guns", "Changing Face", "Gunfire", "Fight Club", "Spy Shadows" and "The Executioner"?

It's like a cannon hitting mosquitoes, and Caesar never thought about it.
