217. The Universe Begins to Move

Eight o'clock the next day.

When Meng Shi was woken up by the alarm clock, Chen You's flight had already flown to his hometown.

After a simple wash, Meng Shi went to the next door and knocked on Qin Qian's door.

A few minutes later, the little assistant was woken up by Meng Shi's phone call, and when he opened the door, he was still sleepy-eyed.

Qin Qian rubbed his eyes, sighed, and said in detail, "I went to the mountains to play yesterday, I didn't call me, I didn't call me to eat delicious food last night, if I didn't ask Guan Bin, I don't know where you went, Meng Shi, you can't be like this in the future, we are a team, I am your assistant......"

Meng Shi said, "It turns out that you are my assistant, and this is to take you to eat and play, and the small fish are not treated as well as you." ”

Qin Qian turned sideways and prepared to let Meng Shi into the room, saying, "I'm your assistant, you go to play, go eat delicious food, well, my itinerary should have been arranged by me." ”

He pointed the screen of his mobile phone at Qin Qian's face, "Qin Qingxue said that I sent you the itinerary of Teacher Feng Jiewei and Teacher Ji Hongting, may I ask my assistant, has the pick-up been arranged?" ”

"You underestimate me!" Qin Qian bared his teeth, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Teacher Feng Jiewei's flight departs from Daxing at 6:50, and arrives here at 9 o'clock, I called the front desk at 7 o'clock to order a pick-up service, Teacher Ji Hongting is in Suzhou, the bullet train at 8:03, and Hongqiao at 8:46, and now the company's car should have stopped outside the station and waited for her." ”

Qin Qian finished speaking in one breath, looked up at Meng Shi with his bun face, and looked at Meng Shi defiantly.

Meng Shi patted her head in some surprise and said, "Good job, Baozi, I apologize to you." ”

Qin Qian twisted his head, as if he was going to put his hands on his hips in the next moment.

She said proudly, "I also booked a box in the hotel until one o'clock in the afternoon, you can have some morning tea in it first, get acquainted with each other, eat together at noon, talk about things after eating, rest well, and interview actors together in the afternoon." ”

Meng Shi listened and suddenly laughed.

This week's positive arrangement is not something that she can draw inferences from a girl in her early twenties who is messing around as a whole.

It seems that Qin Qingxue's messy classes were not in vain.

When Qin Qian saw him smiling, he opened his round eyes and asked, "What are you laughing at!" ”

Meng Shi didn't break her heart, shook her head and said, "No, I suddenly remembered that there was still something to deal with, so I went back to the room first, and when the car arrived, remind me, let's pick it up." ”

Qin Qian breathed a sigh of relief at this time, patted his chest and said, "I'll do something, don't worry." ”

At half past nine, Meng Shi led Qin Qian and Guan Bin at the door of the hotel, and successively picked up Feng Jiewei and Ji Hongting.

Ji Hongting is the camera director, and Feng Jiewei is the assistant director.

Both of them have a lot of backgrounds.

When he came to the crew to "assist" Meng this time, he was condescending to be noble, and there were also different reasons.

Ji Hongting, who set off from Suzhou, arrived before Feng Jiewei, who came from Sijiu City.

She is the director of photography of Lu Chengkang's photography group, and the two have worked together.

Ji Hongting is an aboriginal of Wan Chai Province, and before coming to the mainland, she has been working with Wan Chai director Huang Xinyao, that is, the director of Chen He's new script.

Her early photography style was delicate and soft, and after cooperating with Lu Chengkang, who was born in photography, she kneaded his simplicity, calmness and atmosphere into the original style.

The visual success can be said to be the result of the two complementing each other.

At the same time, Ji Hongting, who was promoted by Lu Chengkang, is also the first female photographer in film history to win the Best Cinematography Award at the International Film Festival.

If you ask an insider which cinematographer you like the most, you may get a lot of answers.

But if you add a precondition in front of this question and ask which female photographer you like the most, before Ji Hongting won the award, many people may not be able to think of a name.

Because in the behind-the-scenes industry, there are very few female workers per se, and even fewer female photographers.

Of course, this does not mean that female photographers lack skills and talent.

Meng Shi and Ji Hongting met for the first time.

The last time she went to Lu Chengkang's crew, she happened to have something at home and had to leave for a few days, and the two missed it.

However, Ji Hongting has seen the set of shots that Lu Chengkang personally took charge of at Meng Shi's suggestion.

She was very impressed by that set of shots.

Wu Qing, played by Chen You, walked along the side of the road, opened the door of the tavern in Meng Shi, and before the person appeared, Lu Chengkang made a cross-axis.

Generally speaking, the spatial relationship of the film is positioned according to the 180-degree axis.

It's like when we're on one side of the road, with our eyes on the camera, and the road is a 180-degree axis.

We could see the bus parked on the road, we saw the driver in the cab, we walked slowly along the side of the road, we saw the driver in the window on this side of the road, the passengers.

Under normal circumstances, when we want to look at the other side, we will re-plan a route, naturally from the front or rear of the car, and go around.

And crossing the axis is that we jump directly from the roof of the car with both feet, and land on the other side.

Witnesses to this act in reality will be dumbfounded.

put it in the movie screen, it is clear that the background is a shop along the street just now, why did it become a road in the blink of an eye?

The audience will have a sense of unreality due to the spatial dislocation caused by the abrupt change of the lens, which will greatly destroy the immersion of watching the movie, and even cause discomfort to the audience.

Ren Hu, who was watching the shooting at the scene at the time, was stunned because of Lu Chengkang's overstepping axis.

Because after ruling out Lu Chengkang's sudden illness, he couldn't think of what the purpose of such an abrupt and direct crossing of the axis was.

Even if he watched the whole shooting, there was still no answer.

And Ji Hongting, seeing Lu Chengkang's off-axis processing, and then listening to Meng Shi's voice when he was not in the picture, knew where the meaning of this shot was.

Meng Shijia's set of shots, aside from Lu Chengkang's off-axis, is actually very simple.

Meng Shi asked, "Why are you going?" ”

Chen Youguan, who plays Wu Qing, walks by himself.

Meng Shi said, "Go to that bar girl again?" ”

At this time, Wu Qingcai said, "She is a nurse." ”

Meng Shi continued, "I saw her working as a waitress at a bar at night. ”

Wu Qing was silent and left alone.

Meng Shi said, "Do you love her? ”

Wu Qing was still silent.

During the whole process, there was only Wu Qing in the camera.

Wu Qing kept walking, and he didn't even make a head movement.

Until Meng Shi said that he met a girl who jumped off the bridge and asked the girl to give him her hand.

Wu Qingcai turned his head.

Meng Shi said off-camera that the girl asked him what he had to live.

Meng Shi said that in the face of the girl's problem, he hesitated, because he couldn't think of what was the meaning of living and what was good to live, so in his hesitation, the girl jumped off the Suzhou River.

In this long-shot dialogue, the process of the dialogue is abrupt.

Because it was explained in the script, Wu Qing had no friends except for the severity of picking him up when he came out of the drug rehabilitation center.

The object of the conversation is also not clear.

Meng Shi is always off-camera and has no name.

From beginning to end, Wu Qing only said one sentence, she is a nurse.

And the tone of this sentence is not so much a response to Meng Shi as it is more like talking to himself.

She's a nurse.

Well, she's a nurse.

And corresponding to this sentence is the next words of Meng Shi.

"Do you love this city, Wu Qing."

This sentence also seems to be talking to himself.

After Wu Qing came out of the drug rehabilitation center, he found a job, he was very excited, he thought, I have a serious job, I can get back together with my ex-girlfriend, I want to send a flower to my mother, they should be happy.

In this paragraph, Lu Chengkang did a reverse shooting, highlighting Wu Qing's "tallness".

And the moment Meng Shi appeared, Lu Chengkang not only deliberately crossed the axis, but also pulled the shooting angle and turned it into a small overhead shot, making Wu Qing look "low".

Because after the initial excitement, Wu Qing faced a deeper confusion.

Meng Shi said outside the picture, "Do you love this city, Wu Qing, falling in love with this city is like drowning slowly, is anyone pulling you?" ”

After this sentence, Wu Qingcai raised his head again.

He looked at September Rose and smiled like a child.

At this moment, he thought in his heart that his girlfriend, who was a nurse and loved his mother deeply, would pull him so that he would not drown in the city.

Ji Hongting felt that Meng Shi's paragraph was very good.

The original plot here was that Wu Qing looked at Rose and smiled, and climbed over the wall to pick flowers.

Lu Chengkang believes that this laughter is the turning point of the whole film.

But Ji Hongting feels that in addition to senior film critics and the judges of the organizing committee of the film festival, they can understand this lens design, and it is really difficult for ordinary audiences to grasp his point.

Meng Shijia's paragraph, although it is also a stream of consciousness, is not easy to understand.

But under the prompt of crossing the axis, enough space has been given to ordinary viewers to interpret themselves.

In this set of shots, Ji Hongting felt Meng Shi's control and understanding of the script, as well as his expressiveness and imagination.

Therefore, Meng Shi opened his mouth to Lu Chengkang to "borrow" the photography team, and she came in person.
