Chen Xi jumped from TV series to movies again, and he is also this kind of police and bandit whose space is almost all excavated...... But I watched their production company, and basically, there was only one deep space film and television ...... In other words, if they invest on their own, it is difficult to make a big investment, and it is impossible to make a blockbuster...... So where else can he go? Playing with the plot...... I think it's enough to hang! TV series, after all, is not comparable to movies, and filming "Latent" does not mean that you can make a good TV series! ”

The mainstream opinion is always skeptical, but there are also the first fans of Chen Xi, and the words of defense continue to appear.

As a result, in this collision, the attention of "Border Storm" continues to increase.

When the original "Border Storm" started filming, there was basically little attention and even no one cared about it, but this version, at least at the beginning, attracted a little more attention.

...... "Be ruthless!" It's so fake!! ”

The filming scene of "Border Storm".

A scene is being filmed. Chen Xi was merciless.

In the content of this scene, Sun Honglei is dead, Wang Luodan was buried alive, and the dirt was on his face, but those cast and crew did not dare to be ruthless, Chen Xi shouted directly.

These people were still a little hesitant, and Chen Xi said louder: "Do you want me to come?" ”

The remake, the dirt fluttered, and it took a lot of effort, and Sun Honglei and Wang Luodan's bodies were beaten to a bang.

"Director Chen is really ruthless!" Some staff members were secretly speechless in their hearts, in front of their eyes, Sun Honglei closed his eyes, his skin was beaten one by one, Wang Luodan had to keep his eyes half-open, he couldn't avoid the dirt, not even the conditioned reflex!

That's miserable enough......

After "Latent", Chen Xi's confidence is greater, and he is more powerful for many shots.

Movies and TV series are really different, there are many differences, and it takes a lot of effort to grasp the two.

"Border Storm" is to be shot with film film, film is usually shot non-stop, about 4 minutes, and Chen Xi they use Kodak VISION2100T color negatives, the price of this kind of film, one is equivalent to 1,800 yuan.

The duration of the movie is 97-105 minutes, that is, even in the most perfect state, it takes 25 films, more than 40,000 yuan, and the total cost is about 90,000 yuan, including the printing fee.

But in the actual shooting, not a minute is wasted, unless the gods are allowed to shoot.

Waste of shots, waste of performances!

For a film like "Border Storm", when it was originally released, the amount of material was a total of 194 copies, that is to say, it took more than 300,000 yuan to shoot this film alone, and at least 600,000 yuan including the printing fee.

The material and the finished product, with a clip in between, are different.

Under Chen Xi's control, it is conservatively estimated that he also needs to shoot at least 80-100 material books, which also means that the shooting fee is close to 200,000 yuan, and if you count the printing, 300,000 or 400,000 yuan will go.

The great change in the film era began at this time, because the cost of film alone for a movie is so high, plus the cinema, a box of film copies costs at least six or seven thousand, and the cost of projection is so high...... It is inevitable that film will be eliminated by digital shooting.

In 2010, Kodak, a major film company, faced a dilemma, and in order to protect Kodak, several major Hollywood directors signed support agreements...... But under the tide of the great era, many things are irreversible.

In '06, this was not the case, and film was still the best choice for most films.

Moreover, although the cost of film is difficult to solve, compared with digital photography, film has a better sense of layering, color saturation, transparency, and clarity during projection, and it also has a texture that digital photography cannot simulate.

So even in 14 years of "Interstellar", Nolan, who has paranoid requirements for the quality of the film, still did not give up the film.

…… For Chen Xi's "Border Storm", there are almost no waste shots, because he is just copying them one by one, including lighting, plot, and content...... This is not the case.

If this problem is solved, the film material of the film will be greatly reduced.

Many directors, in order to save film film, have the actors go through many rehearsals in advance, and also have to make the script and storyboard quite perfect.

But in the golden age of Xiangjiang films, some directors didn't even have a script to make a movie, they just wanted to shoot wherever they wanted, and if they didn't waste shots, it would be a waste of movie tickets, unless there were a few directors who were really geniuses......

For example, Wang Jiawei, filming a scene on the bridge in "The True Story of A Fei", it was extremely dangerous, Liang Chaowei was almost killed by him, and this shot also made the cost exceed the standard by millions of Hong Kong dollars, and then the movie was released, and this scene was cut by him...... Cut out ......

The waste problem faced by Chen Xi is mainly hung on the actors' performances, the actors perform well, over and over again, naturally, there will be fewer waste shots, otherwise, two or three times, tossing and turning, that waste is not a little bit.

But he didn't have the time, nor the ability to require these actors to go through many scene rehearsals in advance, so he could only be as strict as possible during filming.

For example......

After filming this scene, Sun Honglei and Wang Luodan were shaking the soil on the side, like animals throwing water, Wang Luodan, the assistant assigned to her by the crew, is now filming on her.

"Keep an eye on it, I'll go to the bathroom!"

Chen Xi patted the assistant director's shoulder, smeared oil on the soles of his feet, and couldn't even find his back in the blink of an eye.

Sun Honglei and Wang Luodan were full of resentment, Wang Luodan didn't dare to say too much to Chen Xi, but Sun Honglei came to Xingshi to ask for guilt, and a lot of the soil just now entered his ears, which was very uncomfortable.

But on the side of the monitor, how can there be a shadow of Chen Xi, the assistant director of the top cylinder looked helpless: "Mr. Sun, I have to prepare the next shot." ”

Sun Honglei shook his hand and left, Chen Xi is too unreliable!

"Alright, next shot!"

After Chen Xi came back, he came to Sun Honglei as if nothing happened, and said: "This shot is a make-up, I felt that my expression was a little wrong before, at that time, you were begging, not threatening, at that time, you have to imagine yourself, you have no capital to threaten, you can only beg them not to kill their lover." ”

Sun Honglei suppressed the urge to settle accounts with Chen Xi and quickly entered the state of an actor.

"In addition, the table xiàn can be more wolf bèi!" Chen Xi said: "That's it. ”

"Wang Luodan, you are a little overforced, don't have too many micro-expressions, okay, that's it!" Wang Luodan just nodded, she is not as old as Chen Xi, Chen Xi is a director, and she is also a little famous, she is like this, in front of Chen Xi, she basically refers to where to fight.

The pure replication of "Border Storm" was filmed very quickly, and it should be filmed in about a month and a half.
