Chapter Eighty-Six: A Little Accident in Filming
In today's world, there are two film awards that are the most well-known.
The first is the Golden Tripod Award in the main competition unit of the Yanjing Film Festival, and the second is the Golden Bull Award held in November every year.
But there is also a difference between the two.
As one of the units of the Yenching Film Festival, the Golden Tripod Award's tendency towards literary films is well known, so it seems to be high and low.
Although the name is very loud and has reached the point where no one knows it, the audience of literary films is very limited, most people just follow the trend to join in the fun, and there are actually very few people who really pay attention to the Golden Tripod Award.
The Golden Bull Award is different, this is an independent award, and the selection criteria are not obvious, even if it is a commercial film, it is also possible to win the award.
Of course, it's just possible.
After all, the Golden Bull Awards are not inclined to literary films, nor will they be inclined to commercial films. But no matter what, at least in the list of nominees every year, commercial films are indispensable.
Between the two awards, there is no superiority or inferiority, but the direction of choice is different, but because commercial films will be more eye-catching, people's attention to the Golden Bull Award is obviously much higher than that of the Golden Tripod Award.
The specific award time of the Golden Bull Award will not be announced until November, but the process is generally similar every year, generally closing registration in early October, holding a nomination ceremony in early November, and holding an award ceremony in mid-to-late November.
In front of such a world-renowned heavyweight film award, "The Battle Against Time" is certainly not an opponent, and the limelight was quickly stolen.
The reason is very simple, the 530 million big-budget sci-fi movie has just been casting, and it will take a year or two to wait for the release, and there will be time to pay attention to it in the future.
And the Golden Bull Award is only once a year, and if you miss it, you will have to wait for next year.
Naturally, it is needless to say who should be chosen.
So at the end of October, the topic of the Golden Bull Award began to appear frequently on the Internet, and as the time got closer to November, the popularity continued to rise.
……
In a blink of an eye, November 2 is the weekend, and it is also the time for the nomination ceremony of the Golden Bull Awards.
There is no doubt that today must be a big day in the film industry, and countless people are waiting to watch the nomination ceremony in the evening.
However, no matter how lively the Golden Bull Awards are, the filming of the movie must continue.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, the crew of "A Good Show" on the island was still busy.
After more than two weeks of continuous shooting, the green screen footage that needed to be used for special effects was completed yesterday afternoon.
Fang Bo had already contacted the special effects company, and after checking that they were correct, he sent them these shots, so that they could do special effects while shooting, which could save a lot of time.
Because of this, today's filming location is no longer the iron frame that makes Huang Jingshan fearful, but has been moved to another beach on the island.
"This beach is full of stones, everyone be careful with your step, don't fall and slip, pay attention to safety!"
The crew was ready, Fang Bo picked up the loudspeaker and gave a word of instruction before starting filming.
"Three, two, one, go!"
This is a dialogue between the male and female protagonists, and the only actors who appear on the scene are Huang Jingshan and Yuan Lu.
In fact, under normal circumstances, movie shooting will not be shot in the order of the script, for many reasons, such as shooting the plot that takes place in a scene in a centralized manner, which can avoid frequent transitions, or an actor has a limited schedule and must hurry up to finish filming his scene, etc.
In short, the order in which a movie is shot is often completely different from that of the feature film.
This is the case now, this scene takes place in the movie at a much higher time than the scene of the previous days.
Correspondingly, the actor's makeup has also changed, and Huang Jingshan's stubble will be lighter than before.
This kind of detail problem may not be visible to many audiences, but the director must take it into account, otherwise it will be a goof in the eyes of careful audiences.
Hearing the word "start", Yuan Lu in front of the camera said his first line.
"You're looking for death, aren't you?"
Huang Jingshan originally had his back to her, and when he heard this, some of them turned around, put their hands in their trouser pockets, raised their chins, and said as a matter of course: "Otherwise, wait here to die?" ”
Yuan Lu frowned, "Can you be realistic?" ”
"Reality?" Huang Jingshan disagreed, looked at the sea not far away, turned his head to look directly at Yuan Lu, and said seriously: "What I am doing now is the most realistic thing, is 60 million enough to be realistic?" ”
He took out a lottery ticket from his pocket that looked crumpled after being blistered and dried, and put it in front of Yuan Lu, with a kind of light bursting out of his eyes, "The master's lottery has won, sixty million!" How's that, service? ”
"Neurotic, it turns out that you were in it for a lottery ticket." Yuan Lu simply felt that he was unreasonable.
Because the beach was full of rocks and uneven, the monitors were placed a little further away from the beach.
In the awning, Fang Bo's eyes narrowed slightly, staring intently at the monitor screen in front of him.
This scene is about the male protagonist who risked his life in order to cash out the lottery ticket, and was ready to leave the island on a small raft.
After being poor for decades, for the sake of this lottery, he was out of the way, and he had 60 million when he became it, and he was buried in the sea if he didn't succeed.
With the determination to become a benevolent person if he doesn't succeed, he showed his long-hidden love to the heroine for the first time before leaving.
So don't look at this as a simple dialogue scene, it is actually very important in the movie, and it is a key point in the emotional development of the male and female protagonists.
Fang Bo was extremely attentive, and his eyes never left the screen of the monitor since the shooting started.
In the camera frame, the two actors are very professional, and they can't find any problems with their performances at all.
But many times, some small accidents cannot be avoided.
During the filming, the sea breeze was blowing on the beach, but the wind was not strong, and it only slightly messed up Yuan Lu's long shawl hair.
And her reaction was also very timely, while saying the lines, she reached out and put her hair behind her ear, which not only did not destroy the image, but made the picture look more lifelike.
But just as Fang Bo praised her performance in his heart, the wind suddenly became stronger.
As a result, Yuan Lu's long hair flew in the wind, almost covering her face, but she was still opening her mouth to say her lines, and a few strands of hair entered her mouth.
"You like me, why didn't you tell me before?"
Yuan Lu was quite dedicated, only paused slightly, and then finished the lines with a mouthful of hair.
It's just that the hero and heroine are telling each other their hearts at the moment, and it is obviously inappropriate to appear in such a picture, and the good atmosphere has been destroyed, if the audience sees it, I am afraid that it will be out of the play all of a sudden.
understands that the shooting is good, but it happened to be disturbed by a gust of wind.
Fang Bo picked up the walkie-talkie and stopped filming with a smile.
"Stop, stop, take a break, and wait for the wind to get lighter before reshooting."
Witnessing a gust of wind blowing, Yuan Lu changed from a temperament goddess to a female nerve with messy hair, Huang Jingshan was still trying to hold back his laughter, but when he heard that he was going to reshoot, he immediately couldn't help laughing, "Hahahaha." ”
"Phew, bah, bah." Yuan Lu hurriedly got the hair out of her mouth, reached out and patted him, "It's so funny." ”
After saying that, she herself felt quite funny, endured it with a straight face, and finally laughed along.
