Chapter 04 The small bridge returns on a snowy night
Saturday, December 26th. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After taking the "Literature Guide" class in the morning and having lunch, Zhou Yi and his sister went to the studio together to prepare for the filming of the weekend scenes. Xi Wei's assistant came to pick them up in time and told Zhou Yi that the studio had been set up, and the art construction team was very powerful, and it took the night shift to set it up in a hurry.
Zhou Yi couldn't wait to go to the scene to have a look.
This weekend, we will shoot the scene of "Xiaoqiao Returns to People on a Snowy Night", "Xiaoman saves Fang Gang, and the beauty saves the hero".
The hero is at the end of the road, and the girl helps with righteousness, showing chivalrous and tenderness, and there is love in the world.
Tang Yan is really excited to make her debut.
This is her film debut, and Xiaoman is also her film debut, which is very commemorative and must not be missed.
She had prepared well beforehand.
The composition of the scene in the previous life is very poignant and beautiful, with the performance and unique temperament of the protagonist, the picture is very meaningful. Although the scene of the previous work is not large, the sparrow is small, full of organs, small and exquisite, and the whole scene is almost perfect with the technology of the time, and there are no flaws. Even if the technology developed in later generations and the scene can be made bigger and more realistic, there may not be many that can surpass others in terms of artistic conception.
This scene embodies the artistic conception that evolved from ancient poems of "thatched huts and old trees, small bridges and flowing boats, ponds drifting in the wind and snow, and people with broken arms walking the world", as if there is a kind of poetry flowing wantonly in the picture.
The small bridge returns to people at night in the wind and snow, where to find the way home!
The lens is vividly reflected in the freehand, and the level of the great director is all in it.
In the script, Zhou Yi made a detailed explanation, and I believe Director Xu will definitely be able to understand it.
As for the scene construction, it will definitely not be bad.
It would be good if this work in this life can shoot the artistic conception of the original work in the previous life.
In fact, Zhou Yi is still very relieved, if he can't shoot this kind of artistic conception, he can't be regarded as a top director in the industry.
Why did you invite a big director to shoot this drama? is because it is far better than "Five Poison Gate" and "Rushing Xiaolou" in terms of artistic conception, it cannot be simply filmed, and only when a big director shoots can he be sure. Ordinary directors may not be able to shoot that kind of artistic conception.
Some directors can make a hundred films like "Slaying the Wolf", but they can never make a "Generation of Grandmasters".
This is Zhou Yi's true thoughts.
The brother and sister exchanged ideas on the way and quickly arrived at the studio.
When I entered the inside, I saw that the scenic area in front of me was a lot higher than the normal ground, which was normal. Because to build a reed pond, a lot of water must be filled inside, of course, it cannot be built on a flat ground, it must be a piece higher than the ground, and the pond must be able to float boats.
Standing under the scenic area, you can't see the scenery above clearly.
Zhou Yi took his sister, according to the guidance of the on-site staff, along the simple steps built below, to the top of the scenic area, and took a closer look, feeling that the surrounding scene was really spectacular, and Tang Yan next to him was also amazed.
This kind of grandeur does not refer to the grandeur of the scene, after all, this is a set up in a studio, and the project cannot be very large. This kind of grandeur is an admiration for the scenery technique, the scenery inside is too real, very detailed, and at a glance, it is definitely not inferior to the scenery of the original work in the previous life.
The surrounding dead trees, reeds, thatched huts, street lamps with dim yellow lanterns, small bridges, snow, and small slopes are all there, and the scene is really realistic. In particular, the reed pond filled with water under the small bridge is indeed well done.
Zhou Yi doesn't know how the art construction team did it, but they made it for you in a short period of time, and it has reached the artistic and engineering standards, and it is really amazing to be able to build this kind of landscape in the studio.
It is estimated that this landscape will definitely cost a lot of money.
In particular, this scene is much larger than the scene of the original work in the previous life, in the original work, the boat floated under the bridge, tight, too narrow, and this scene in this life is much better, and the bridge is larger. It is estimated that the professional studio in Zhengdong is definitely much larger than the studio of the old era in the previous life, which can naturally build a better scene and make it more convenient to shoot better results.
This kind of scenery building technology in this world is really powerful.
At this time, Director Xu was working nearby, pointing at the scene with the cameraman and gaffer of the crew, probably building the shot.
Zhou Yi did not disturb the director's work in the past.
He paid attention to the reed pond below the scenic spot, the water surface is relatively turbid, slightly yellow-green, I don't know what kind of water is poured into it, it is estimated that it is not a good thing, but it is not as disgusting as the pond in the original work in the previous life, but it is not clear that the bottom of the water is not clear, which is very in line with the concept of the script, because only the water surface is turbid, and the hero Qi Rufeng, who came after him, saw the blood stains on the bridge, and he would misunderstand Fang Gang fell into the water and died. If you can see the bottom of the water clearly, there will be no such misunderstanding, so the water surface under the bridge must be turbid.
The setting here is still faithful to the script, and the scene is exactly recreated.
A specially made boat is also floating on the water, and various props are well prepared.
However, if Zhou Yi really fell off the bridge, with his weight, he would definitely smash the boat overturned, and even Tang Yan would have to fall into the water. Of course, that kind of situation will not happen, because during the shooting, there will definitely be martial artists or location workers around to support the boat, so that the hull is stable and there will be no problems.
There are still a few scenic workers wearing water clothes and trousers, standing in the pond and busy.
For the convenience of filming, the crew also bought a few more sets of spare clothes and pants for these water clothes and pants.
It can be seen that the pond is not deep, and it cannot be made very deep, and the surface of the water is not waist-high. It's not about building a swimming pool, it's too deep and it's too expensive. When the boat is going to be sailed, it must be assisted by various technical means, and it is impossible to really let Tang Yan row.
Tang Yan can only row water, but not rowing!
If she is allowed to row, it is estimated that it is possible to overturn the boat directly, so don't risk it.
Zhou Yi also asked the scenographer next to him: "Is this bridge strong?" Can I go up and walk around? ”
The scenographer smiled: "It must be sturdy!" As long as you don't destroy it, you'll be fine. You're going to go up and perform later, how can you not be strong? ”
Zhou Yi took his sister up for a walk, it's really good, as long as you don't use brute force to destroy, it's definitely fine. It looks like a grey stone bridge, but it's certainly not made of real stone. If it is really made of stone, whether the cement can be done in the short term is another matter, the key is that it is troublesome to build and it is not safe. When the performance is going to be, Tang Yan has to drive a small boat under the bridge, in case the bridge collapses, wouldn't it be troublesome?
Zhou Yi came up to take a look in advance, just to check the safety of Xiaoqiao, which is for the safety of his sister.
As an older brother, he was really thoughtful and tried not to let his sister get injured because of filming. In fact, it is very common to get injured while filming, especially when filming action scenes or hanging tightropes, it is easy for actors to be injured. Like Gao Song and Cheng Dakui, although they are very careful, they have some injuries on their bodies, which is also the reason why Zhou Yi wants to let them take a leave of absence for a while. Now Zhou Yi has been following his sister, of course, he doesn't want injuries to happen to his sister, and he wants to try to strangle all kinds of dangers in the cradle, after all, his sister is not the eighth stage of national arts, and girls are not as resistant to tossing as boys, safety first.
Like Zhao Liying in the previous life, they were all injured when filming, and Zhou Yi naturally paid special attention to it.
However, Tang Yan didn't think of these details at all, and only cared about fun.
Of course, she just looked, and she wasn't stupid enough to stumble around on the prop bridge, otherwise she would have been bombarded by the set decorator.
Now Qiu Cao and Tian Guofeng haven't come yet!
Today's filming time is relatively abundant, and their roles are behind, so they can come later.
And today's play doesn't need to play with them, because there are no lines in the first scene, there is very little interaction, and Qiu Cao has no rivalry with them, Zhou Yi and Tang Yan have to rely on facial expressions and behavior to perform.
However, Tang Yan and the two supporting characters have rivalry behind them, and when they come, it is good to play a simple role, and the performance is not difficult at all. With Tang Yan's current acting strength, it is more than enough to deal with this kind of play.
Director Xu finished his work over there, noticed Zhou Yi and Tang Yan, came over to exchange a few words, briefly talked about the key points of shooting, and then asked them to hurry to the dressing room to dress up, it is estimated that it will be busy for another afternoon.
According to Director Xu's idea, this scene is very short, it is not difficult to perform, and strive to finish all the filming in one afternoon without delaying everyone's dinner.
So Zhou Yi took his sister to put on makeup.
Tang Yan took makeup photos in Director Xu's best partner studio last time, and they were very beautiful, so this time she can dress up according to the last time.
Naturally, the costumes and other things have been prepared for a long time.
In this scene, Tang Yan is dressed up in a hat and a robe, with a pikan shoulder and a small padded jacket, and a small apron, it is all right. The costume designer prepared the costume well, similar to the original in the previous life, without any problems.
When Zhou Yi and Tang Yan were almost all dressed up, Qiu Cao and Tian Guofeng also arrived in time.
Say hello everyone.
Under Zhou Yi's introduction, Tang Yan greeted Mr. Tian Guofeng very politely.
Tian Guofeng looked at Tang Yan who had finished her makeup, admired it very much, and praised with a smile: "In our play, the image of a young actor is really outstanding." "The old gentleman doesn't say new words like looks, but that's what it means.
Everyone felt the same way, and they all laughed. Tang Yan was praised and naturally very happy.
The old gentleman is telling the truth, the actors in this play are really outstanding, especially Tang Yan and Qiu Cao standing together, they look naturally beautiful, they are really beautiful, extremely fragrant, Chunlan and Autumn Chrysanthemum, each is good at winning. Tang Yan's appearance and image are much stronger than the fat face of the actor in her previous life, and her makeup looks better.
After chatting for a while, Mr. Tian Guofeng went to put on makeup first.
Tang Yan also had a few jokes with Senior Sister Qiu Cao.
Next, when they were dressing up here, Zhou Yi and his sister went to the shooting site first to test the lighting effect.
They do it all by themselves.
After it was determined that the scene was used up, the two actors who played Uncle Wang and Shun'er also arrived, and the actor who played Shun'er was Lin Yan, who also played a supporting role in "Ace vs. Ace", and this time he came to the crew of "One-Armed Knife" to play soy sauce, soy sauce played a lot, he was in every play, he was still young, this was to increase his acting experience, but this role is not important.
The actor who plays Uncle Wang is invited from outside, and he is an old actor who specializes in this kind of role.
Director Rong is still busy making a post-production for "Ace", and he will definitely not make a cameo.
Tang Yan is going to the studio and playing tricks with them. Zhou Yi naturally accompanied his sister and said a few words to Lin Yan.
After signing with Zhengdong, Lin Yan acted in a lot of plays one after another, although most of them were unimportant roles, but the young man looked high-spirited and contented. Recently, he finished his acting training class, and also found time to prepare for high school homework, and he really wanted to go to college for further study.
He told Zhou Yi about these thoughts, and he was very frank.
Its artists are self-motivated, which is a good thing, of course Zhou Yi supports it and encourages Lin Yan a few words. Tang Yan is the same, she has participated in the art examination and is very experienced, and immediately encouraged Lin Yan to try the art examination boldly.
Now that the winter vacation is coming soon, the art exams of these schools are about to open again, and Lin Yan can of course participate. If you can really pass the art exam, find another school, repeat the third year of high school, and mix up with similar scores, maybe you can get in.
That's what Lin Yan planned, and of course the company would help him go through the formalities.
Next, Tang Yan and the two supporting actors played seriously in the studio, and the lines, Qiu Cao and Tian Guofeng, as well as two martial artists, all finished their makeup one after another and went to the shooting site to do lighting tests.
By the time all this work was done, a lot of time had passed in the afternoon.
Director Xu gave an order, and the crew officially started filming, and they were really resolute and unprocrastinating.
The snowflakes were still dancing wildly above the set, and it was Fang Gang played by Zhou Yi who took the lead, staggering and falling in the snow. In this scene, Fang Gang has run out of oil and is about to lose his breath. He rolled and crawled in the snow, barely holding himself up, and staggered, and finally slowly stepped onto the stone bridge in front of him, but soon fell on the stone bridge and climbed up.
Zhou Yi's performance is still wonderful, maintaining the high standard of last weekend's performance.
He is still calculating the time in his heart, and performing according to the time required by Director Xu, not too long, not too short, but just right.
This scene is not difficult, but Zhou Yi performed it several times, accumulated original materials, and only when it was edited in the later stage could it be officially determined.
In the final stage, Fang Gang stood up with difficulty, but as soon as he got on the stone bridge, he stumbled, slipped a little, and fell directly on the bridge.
The snow was whistling, and the prop masters and assistants above were working hard.
Director Xu's shot composition here is also very beautiful.
The angle he chose was also from the bottom up.
This is probably the same thing that heroes see, and great directors sometimes always have the same thoughts, whether it is in the past life or in the present life.
Zhou Yi's performance was extremely exciting, and it completely reached the level of Wang Yu in his previous life.
There are a few more footage to shoot here, including overall shots, close-ups of faces, street lamp lanterns, and shots of the branches above the whirling sky, all of which are filmed for post-editing.
At this time, Xiaoman, played by Tang Yan, appeared on the stage, and the martial artists and staff at the scene helped her stand on the boat, and the boat slowly sailed out of the bridge of the small bridge. There is a martial artist in front of him who pulls it with a wire rope, and there are scenery workers next to him who are wearing water clothes and pants to help underwater, all of them contribute, but they will not appear in the camera. Tang Yan's performance on the boat is to make a show.
Next, Fang Gang on the stone bridge turned over and fell off the small bridge, landing right on the boat.
This shot is shot completely at the stillness of the boat, with several workers on one side helping the boat, but the camera only shoots one side, not their side. There are also tools under the hull to fix, and there is a large amount of straw on the boat to reduce the cushioning force to ensure that Zhou Yi will not overturn the boat when it rolls over.
When Zhou Yi flipped down, he didn't lie down on his stomach ordinarily, but added a flip to add a little difficulty and make it more beautiful.
This is when I don't forget to add drama to myself.
This key shot is taken and it is easy.
This is exactly what it is: the girl floats in the boat, and the hero falls from the sky! Xiaoqiao returned to people on a snowy night, picked up a man and brought it home.
The rest of the shots are easy to shoot, and they are all close-ups of the two actors.
This is the first positive close-up in Tang Yan's career in a movie, and it is also the first time to cooperate with a big film director, but she is not nervous at all, her performance is very relaxed, there are no mistakes, and she is not stopped by the director. Next, the expressions of compassion and hesitation are also well done.
Then, sail away, and the shot was filmed without a hitch.
The martial artist in front slowly pulled the boat, gradually pulling the hull out of the camera.
Tang Yan's first appearance on the camera was perfect, and she was really a little excited.
Then it was directly Tian Guofeng and Qiu Cao who appeared on the stage, seamlessly connected, and continued to perform.
But these performances have nothing to do with Tang Yan, the little girl is very happy when she gets out of the play.
After Tian Guofeng's scenes were filmed, today's first scene was over, and the filming went very smoothly. During the break, Director Xu especially praised Tang Yan's wonderful performance. Tang Yan is even happier, when acting, she is indeed very relaxed and stress-free.
can not have stage fright, this at least shows that Tang Yan's talent and quality are indeed very rare.
The first photogenic maiden shot in a movie was so easily done, and it really deserves to be celebrated.
