The filming of "Mr. Zombie" has a fine script and a skilled team, and the progress is very smooth.

Of course, this shun lì is not the shun lì of more than ten days like many movies nowadays, but the shun lì on the basis of excellence.

Lin Jing learned from Wang Jing's phone call that she decided to take the time to go to the set to take a look.

When she came to the set with Wang Guxian, the film crew was preparing to shoot the footage of Ren Weiyong's corpse transforming into a zombie king jumping out of a coffin.

At this time, Yuan Hua, the actor of the zombie king, had already put on makeup, wearing the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, long dark blue nails, and a messy face like rotten wood.

Unexpectedly, Wang Guxian saw it at first sight, and if he hadn't held it back in time, he almost laughed rudely.

Rao was like this, Lin Jing still felt her surging smile.

saw a zombie king played by Yuan Hua, the most powerful and terrifying Boss in the whole movie, but not only did it not make people afraid, but it felt ridiculous. The whole face was as if it had been pasted with flour, no matter how it looked fake, how to play, Lin Jing's brows couldn't help frowning.

This is a very strict question.

It seems that there is no good special effects makeup artist in the crew.

When it comes to good professional special effects makeup artists, in fact, I searched all over Hong Kong, but I couldn't find a few.

If you talk about this, it is still related to the Hong Kong film environment.

It seems that the shooting of Hong Kong movies does not need very good special effects makeup artists. Most films, if they are really needed, are art directors. Sum it up with the director, and then come up to the makeup artist perfunctory, and feel that it's okay. There won't be too much going deeper.

So we will see on the big screen, those ghost and magic films, the special effects and makeup are very rough and fake.

In the final analysis, Hong Kong filmmakers are too obsessed with making action movies.

If we briefly summarize it, we will present the entire history of Hong Kong cinema. It's a history of action movies.

Hong Kong movies leave the impression on the world, in addition to action movies, they are still action movies.

Sci-fi is an action movie. Phantom movies are action movies, comedy movies are action movies, cop movies are action movies, and war movies are action movies. Gangster movie or action movie......

Come to think of it. Lin Jing couldn't help but sigh in her heart: the failure to show the disadvantages of special effects makeup in advance was her negligence.

"Director Wang, Director Lin, and Teacher Liang, what do you think of the special effects makeup of this movie?" After Lin Jing said hello to the crew, she brought director Wang Jing, art director Lin Shile and makeup artist Liang Yongtao over.

During the filming, they were called over by the boss for questioning, Wang Jing, Lin Shile and Liang Yongtao couldn't help but click in their hearts.

The three of them thought in unison: It can't be that something went wrong, and the boss is not satisfied, right?

Originally. The producer of the film is a layman. It's good to watch the excitement, you shouldn't point fingers at the production of the movie, and the layman leads the insider. But in their eyes, or in the eyes of the filmmakers of Time and Space Film Studio, Lin Jing, the boss behind the funder investor, is not a simple investor.

In front of her name, there is also a string of prefixes.

In addition, the script of "Mr. Zombie", strictly speaking, should have been written by Lin Jing. For this movie, what it will look like when it is made, the screenwriter must have a sample in his heart.

"Is there something wrong with Yuanhua's special effects makeup?"

Wang Jing and Liang Yongtao were still thinking about Lin Jing's questioning, but it was art director Lin Shile who took the lead in thinking of the key issues.

Lin Shile's original name is saikan1am, and Lin Shile is just his Chinese name. In the original history, he was nominated for Best Art Direction at the 5th Hong Kong Film Awards for "Mr. Zombie".

It should be said that his level is still good. And the art style of the entire movie in the original "Mr. Zombie" is well grasped.

It's just that in terms of special effects makeup, he made the mistake of most Hong Kong filmmakers and didn't pay attention to special effects makeup.

In fact, this is also related to the directors, to the limitations of their vision, and to the limitations of the times, and it is not possible to put all the blame on their heads.

On this issue, even if Hong Kong's most famous art director and character stylist Zhang Shuping is found, it may not be to avail, after all, there is a specialization in the art industry.

"Hmm." Lin Jing nodded and said, "Although the tone of a movie should be unified, it is divided into many parts in terms of elements. Although the tone of our film is comedy, let's not forget that there is also an element of horror. The so-called details determine success or failure, and the horror component is not in place, even if other aspects are done well, it is a loss of points. ”

Although Lin Jing said it a little tactfully, Liang Yongtao didn't know where the problem was at this time, so he thought about it for a while and asked, "Is that a different makeup style for Yuanhua?" ”

"So what kind of style can bring the virtual undead like zombies to life?"

"This?" Liang Yongtao was speechless.

Wang Jing and Lin Shile were also like him, stunned in embarrassment. Because for a while, they couldn't think of a special effects makeup technology that could bring zombies, a virtual undead, to life, as Lin Jing said.

"Did you think that it didn't matter if it was simple or fake, after all, in the filming process, it was necessary to add lighting and music. With the lighting and music, the eerie atmosphere comes out, and the audience can easily ignore the problem that the special effects makeup is fake? Seeing that they didn't speak, Lin Jing said a few more words.

Perhaps it was Lin Jing's words that broke their minds, Wang Jing scratched his head with a smile.

"If there's a way to do better, don't get by." Lin Jing said very seriously and strictly, "This is my pursuit of film production, truthfulness. ”

"Did Miss Lin come up with a way to make the special effects makeup realistic?" Liang Yongtao thought of something and asked.

"The method has been thought of, you go and prepare the materials, let's do a few practical things first, and see how the effect is before making a decision."

"What about the filming of the movie?"

"Of course, let's stop first and solve the problem of special effects makeup."

Honey, food coloring, corn syrup, red wine, warm water, milky gum, paper towels, hair dryer, foundation balm...... Liang Yongtao saw some long daily necessities on the list that Lin Jing listed. I was both puzzled and excited.

The question is, do these things really work? Excited if it really works. Then his special effects makeup skills will definitely be able to take it to the next level.

And Wang Jing and Lin Shile, as well as the other prop masters, are a little confused.

In fact, Lin Jing's so-called method is the zombie special effect makeup technique she learned from "Zombie Makeup".

Imported zombies are naturally different from traditional Chinese zombies, but they all have one thing in common, they are both walking dead. "Living" corpses.

Since they are all corpses, why not learn from the special effects makeup technology of zombies, as long as they can be transformed into zombies.

After Liang Yongtao and the other prop masters found all the materials that Lin Jing needed. Lin Jing was on the set, and started the special effects makeup of zombies in public.

"What is Miss Lin doing?"

"I heard that he was teaching Liang makeup artist real special effects makeup techniques."

"How is this possible, Miss Lin can teach this?"

"What's impossible, isn't it going on right now? To see is to believe. ”

……

While the "audience" was watching and discussing. Lin Jing was methodically carrying out her own reality.

First, honey, food coloring, corn syrup, red wine, etc., are used to mix out the viscous red and black "corpse blood". Then, he found a real volunteer, and in order to be able to "steal" Liang Yongtao, he did not hesitate to sacrifice himself to go into battle in person.

With Liang Yongtao as a volunteer, Lin Jing began to put on makeup for him. Of course, at first, it was not done directly on the face, but with Liang Yongtao's arm.

First, a small piece of latex was applied to Liang Yongtao's arm, and then a layer of paper towel was glued to the latex on his arm. The purpose of the paper towel is to create a three-dimensional effect. So this layer of paper towels needs to be thin and tough, otherwise in the future. It's easy to get messy.

After attaching the tissue, apply foundation and powder directly to the tissue to make it look like the skin tone of the arm.

After this step, the next step is the key - coloring.

And coloring, is to use the "corpse blood" prepared before, deep or shallow, evenly applied to the skin that has shown a three-dimensional effect.

"Wow!"

When the color was finished, the "audience" directly let out a burst of exclamation.

"This special effects makeup really looks like a hideous wound that has been rotting for a long time."

"It's amazing."

"Is it just me who thinks this looks disgusting and scary?"

"If you really feel disgusting and terrifying, it means that the effect has been achieved."

……

"Today was an eye-opener." Wang Jing said with great interest.

Even Lin Zhengying, who has always been a little strict and old-fashioned, saw it and praised it: "Miss Lin, your special effects makeup skills are simply breathtaking." ”

"This is just the simplest zombie special effects makeup technique, specifically, I will give you a detailed explanation. As for the actual use of the face, it will take a lot of time for you to learn to use it. Lin Jing said.

"Of course, since ancient times, the master has led the door and practiced in the individual." Liang Yongtao said indifferently. "And even if it is a little delay, it is undoubtedly worth it to make the film more effective."

"You have to hurry up with the time, but there is no time limit, the key is to be able to learn well. After all, special effects makeup is not a matter of one or two movies, and I plan to set up a special effects makeup department in the studio, specializing in the research of special effects makeup. Lin Jing said in a timely manner that she wanted to establish a special effects makeup department.

In the future, the time and space film studio will definitely not be limited to action movies, but a hundred flowers will bloom, as long as it is a good movie, everything that can be made will find an opportunity to shoot it. It definitely needs a professional special effects makeup team and a special effects team for computer special effects awards.

"Miss Lin, don't worry, you have mentioned it to this point, if we can't support the wall, it will really be a pile of mud."

"Well, I've got the solution up to you, and I'll need to see the best of that then."

The best effect is reflected in the movie "Mr. Zombie", which is of course the most terrifying effect. (To be continued......)
