0016 [First Shot]

After eating and drinking all day, the gods were sent away, and the next day, May 13, the movie officially began filming. The first scene is next to the wharf by the Yangtze River, there are a few very simple shots, the first scene is Bao Shihong played by Guo Tao, who found that his follower Sanbao stole the jade and ran away, and he was worried about his wife by the river.

"Brother Guo, Sun Ning, come over here."

The river breeze is gentle, blowing on the face is cool and cool, with the unique taste of the mountain city, and on the gravel by the river, the crew is busy fiddling with cameras, reflectors, etc. Shao Shuaijun saw that Guo Tao and Sun Ning had finished their makeup, and immediately greeted him.

Pointing to the big stone under the dam, Shao Shuaijun gestured: "Wait a minute, you will sit here, Sun Ning, you will fiddle with the 'watermelon cream lozenge', and talk to Bao Shihong naturally and without a trace." Brother Guo, what about you, at this time, your voice is hoarse because of smoking, you have to hold your breath, make a bitter and hateful expression, introverted and intense, can you find a feeling? ”

Guo Tao thought for a while and said, "I think it should be fine." ”

"Okay."

Shao Shuaijun nodded, took the loudspeaker and shouted around: "The photographer aligns the camera, adjusts the focus, and lights it." The gaffer pays attention to the exposure of the backlight, don't play the white screen, and bring the microphone over with the sound! Attention units, start technical rehearsals! Count down to three, three, two, one, go! ”

After that, all the cameras were aimed at Guo Tao and Sun Ning, Shao Shuaijun and Li Kai were observing behind the camera, and assistant director Wang Yixue was outside to guide the turning of the camera. There are three sets of cameras, one on the left for a side shot, one for a close-up of the front, and one for a long shot from the dam.

Guo Tao blew a mouthful, and the brewing emotions flowed out at once, and he pinched the note in his hand, the note was left by Sanbao, and there was a line of words on it: "Brother, I have money, wait for my good news - Sanbao". then discussed with Sun Ning's wife what to do.

Behind the camera, Shao Shuaijun observed Guo Tao's acting skills, and he did grasp it very accurately, and his expression was very in place. But I always feel that the picture is a little lacking.

"Li Kai, do you think something is missing?"

Li Kai stared at the small screen: "It's not coordinated." You see, Bao's wife is concentrating on fiddling with things, and when Bao Shihong speaks, she shouldn't have this kind of reaction, there should be interaction. ”

"Interactive?"

"Yes, the interaction in the eyes, this is a husband and wife, not a passerby."

"Yes." Shao Shuaijun also felt it, but he didn't shout to stop, this is a technical rehearsal, mainly to investigate the effect of the camera position and lighting, and the content of the acting can be talked about later.

The scene is very short, the two talk on the stone, Bao Shihong gets up, and then his wife follows. Until a minute of walking, the photographer on the dam, waved his hand. Shao Shuaijun saw it and picked up the loudspeaker: "Okay, card, the actor will touch up his makeup!" Each unit takes turns to report on the effect. ”

The No. 1 camera is a close-up camera, and the photographer Shi Sheng is personally in charge, Shi Sheng nodded: "Report to the director, the lens of the No. 1 camera is very stable, the picture color is normal, and the frame is normal." ”

The second camera is a side-shooting camera, there is no fixed frame, it is a shoulder-mounted camera, and the deputy photographer Ge Wanhan is in charge: "Report to the director, the second camera is normal." ”

The No. 3 camera is on the dam, the lens is fixed, and the camera assistant Ma Meng holds the camera, holding the walkie-talkie and saying: "Report to the director, the No. 3 camera is normal, the picture is very clear, and the frame is normal." ”

Recording engineer Wang Yanwei followed up and said: "The live recording is normal, there is little noise, and post-production can be completed." ”

Shao Shuaijun immediately shouted: "Very good, has the makeup artist touched up the makeup?" ”

"Alright."

"Brother Guo, Sun Ning, you sit here, let me tell you about the precautions. Especially Sun Ning, pay attention to the sense of nature, when Bao Shihong is talking, you are Bao's wife, and your husband is talking, you can't just take care of yourself, you have to interact with him, or look up from time to time......"

"Director, I see."

"Well...... The actors are ready for filming! Shao Shuaijun gave instructions, sat on the small chair on the side, and quietly watched everyone prepare quickly.

Seeing that it was almost over, the scene reporter shouted loudly: "Photography preparation, lighting preparation, recording preparation." ”

"Unit 1 is ready!"

"Unit 2 is ready!"

"Recording ready!"

"The lights are ready!"

Sloppy walked to the camera with a clapper and held the clapper high: "The first riverside scene, the first shot of the husband and wife dialogue, the first shooting!" ”

"Let's go." Shao Shuaijun shouted with a loudspeaker.

Click, clapper lay, photography officially begins.

The performance was very successful, needless to say, Guo Tao's acting skills needless to say, and Sun Ning also became a new actor from time to time, all of which were in place. Shao Shuaijun nodded while watching from the side, and when the conversation ended, Li Kai, as the executive director, shouted out the card.

"Cards! The camera crew quickly entered the scene and moved the No. 1 and No. 2 cameras out of the lens of the No. 3 camera. ”

Camera 3 needed to shoot a panorama, and Camera 1 and 2 were too close to the actors. The camera crew was very agile and cleaned up the scene after a minute. Sloppy shouted: "No. 3 camera photography ready!" ”

This scene does not need to be recorded and lit, and Mammon shouts on the walkie-talkie: "The third machine is ready!" ”

Wang Yixue had already run to the dam, holding a clapper in his hand, and shaking it in front of the camera: "The first scene of the riverside, the second scene of the husband and wife leaving, the first shooting!" ”

"Let's go!"

……

It took a day, and several scenes by the river were all done, and the crew called it a day. Shao Shuaijun took a bunch of films and went to the studio built next to the Luohan Temple in Yuzhong County with Li Kai. Usually, you have to keep in line with the crew, shoot on the spot, and you have to take time to rough cut the film, determine the effective surname of the shot, and if you find that it is insufficient, you have to arrange tomorrow's reshoot and so on.

Some directors are lazy, so they will hand over these tasks to assistant directors and editors, and Shao Shuaijun has been divided into many jobs in his previous life. Of course, he enjoys this kind of work, and the director is the god of a movie, holding the power of life and death, which is most vividly reflected in the cutting.

Shao Shuaijun enjoyed this feeling.

After an hour of editing, the two of them really couldn't find anything wrong, so they called Zhang Yu, the director of production, and asked Zhang Yu to send the film to the printing factory to print samples. Samples are sent for printing every day, after all, the preservation of film is very risky, and if it is accidentally exposed, the previous work will be ruined.

And the film crew had to look at the front shots frequently, and without dailies, the film would be blurry after a few back and forth.

After all this, look at the time, it is already more than twelve o'clock.

"Let's go, Li Kai, let's go find a small restaurant to have some food."

"You're in for a treat?"

"Nonsense."

"So what are you waiting for, let's go."

ordered a few special snacks from the mountain city, and the two chatted while eating, both workaholics, and the conversation was inseparable from the movie. Shao Shuaijun has been with many crews in his last life, but they are all small productions, but Li Kai has really followed big productions like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Director Li Yan will be the best director of Oskai in the future, and he is very lucky to be by his side.

Therefore, Shao Shuaijun asked Li Kai for advice on how to control the big scene in a nightmare, he can't make some small productions in his life, as a director, can he still be called a director if he doesn't want to make blockbusters? One consulted, the other taught, chatted happily, and did not disperse until the second half of the night, and each went back to sleep......
