Chapter 47: The Making of the Film (Part II)

Li Yihua has high hopes for this movie, and the editing must be on the spot, only in this way can he follow his own ideas to complete the work.

For a movie, the director is the soul who grasps the whole of a movie, and no one can understand the demands of a movie better than the director, so even if it is a bad director, the editor should follow his requirements and the director's understanding of the movie, so as to complete the movie editing, otherwise no matter how high the editing level is, if it does not match the director at all, the cut is still a bad movie.

Li Yihua watched Li Peng's face get worse and worse with his answer, and knew in his heart why this was the case. Editors are inherently complicated and have to deal with thousands of shots, and film naturally needs a lot.

Li Yihua, no matter how bad his face was, still said his movie, hoping that Li Peng would not deviate from his own philosophy.

When Li Peng began to work, this idea immediately changed 180 degrees, because most of these films were short-shot combinations, and the pictures shot were surprisingly smooth, and they were simply works in one go, and both the movements of the characters and the connection between the front and back seemed to have been repeatedly scrutinized and the scene after comprehensive editing.

"This, how is this possible?" Li Peng had a strong earthquake in the depths of his heart, and he took out several sets of films for verification, and the results of the verification were all the same, all of them were short-shot combinations.

"Director Wang, are you sure you're not kidding me?" Li Peng asked with a strange expression, he had never cut such a perfect movie.

Li Yihua touched his nose and didn't understand what he meant: "Uh, what did you just say?" Is there something wrong with the film? ”

"No, no, there's no problem with the film, I just want to ask if the film has been pre-cut and re-cut."

"First cut? Duplicate shear? Of course not, I brought it here after filming. Li Yihua shrugged and said, as if facing a very simple thing.

Editing can be divided into steps such as primary cutting, double cutting, fine cutting and comprehensive cutting. The initial cut is generally based on the storyboard script, the characters' physical movements, dialogues, reactions, etc. The double shear is corrected on the basis of the initial shear; The fine editing is more detailed and accurate, and the picture is repeatedly scrutinized; Comprehensive editing is an adjustment and addition to the overall consideration of the structure and rhythm of the entire film after the shots of all scenes in the whole film are complete and each scene has been basically cut.

Li Peng touched his head and thought: "How can it be so smooth, how can I work for many years, I have never seen a movie with a lot of film, let alone edited a movie that is smooth!" ”

Li Yihua saw Li Peng, who was puzzled, and said the principle of making a movie, "Oh, you're talking about this, this movie has already been reflected in my head, so to speak, he originally existed in my brain, what I did was to make it out and make a movie." Of course, this is inseparable from the efforts of the actors. ”

Li Peng looked at Li Yihua speechlessly, the muscles on his face began to twitch, this guy in front of him was either a madman or a genius, or he was born to eat this bowl of rice.

"Well, then, I don't have anything to do!" Li Peng's face turned red and he finally held back a sentence.

"Who said no, as for some literary dramas, dialogues and other narrative scenes, I still need to help do a good job." Li Yihua looked at the editor with his own surname, but still said his thoughts.

Li Peng found that what he was doing now was really simple, so simple that it was boring. According to the order of the script, the drama and action are connected, and the re-editing is carried out, the dialogue and mouth shape of the characters are contrasted and perfected, and the lines are recorded.

The smoothness of the shooting made Li Peng's editing speed reach a god's speed, and a movie was completed in just one hour, which was unbelievable before.

The most important thing in a comedy is the lines, which can make a movie realize a different sense of comedy. After the film was edited, the dubbing began. "No, no, my stomach hurts." Wu Mengdar opened the door, covered his stomach and walked out of the dubbing room, patted Li Yihua and said, "Who are you, how can you come up with such ghostly lines, I want to laugh after dubbing a paragraph, I want to laugh after dubbing a paragraph, dubbing makes me ng so many times, and I don't let people live, haha, it's so funny!" ”

Li Yihua disagreed, he had never seen any jokes in later generations, and he was already quite immune, "Low-cost comedy movies, if you want to fight big with small, comedy lines are indispensable, otherwise you will definitely be collectively complained by everyone as soon as it is released, and then the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Wu Mengda nodded, glanced at Li Yihua with a smile, and said: "Andy, I have a feeling now that our movie will definitely be a big hit, a first-class movie, first-class lines, it's strange if it's not a sensation." ”

Li Yihua has always believed that it is not advisable to blindly pursue large-scale productions, not to pursue any scenes, special effects and other things, and a lot of production costs are spent on the grassroots cultural connotation of the film itself, so that the movie can move the audience from the heart.

In the past few days, Li Yihua can be said to be very busy, almost spending time in the recording room and editing room, and even his sister called home for dinner, but he didn't go back, it can be said that Li Yihua gave everything to his first movie.

finally caught Li Yihua, Fu Baorong pulled Li Yihua and didn't let go, "Brother Fu, what are you doing, let people see us and think we have something." ”

"Andy, you don't know how busy Brother Fu is, but I really don't know anything about movies, so you just ask." Fu Baorong complained to Li Yihua, very dissatisfied with him, the shopkeeper.

"Tell me, what's going on, my big brother Fu is stumped." Li Yihua took a sip of tea.

"Andy, the movie is almost finished, but the theater chain and publicity are at a loss, and the company's current money is only inadequate." Fu Baorong confided all the problems he had encountered recently to Li Yihua.

"This matter, you don't have to worry, I will solve the aspect of the theater, I want to use a new type of publicity method for publicity, and you still need to talk about specific matters." Li Yihua looked at Fu Baorong and said seriously.

"What kind of propaganda?" For Fu Baorong, who was born as a businessman, he has a special hobby of publicity, and it can be said that a good publicity can save an enterprise.

"Body advertising." In later generations, this advertising idea has been used badly, but now it is still very fresh, and everything is full of novelty.
