Chapter 264: Why don't I come
The cinematographers in the action movies are all strong!
Where stuntmen dare to jump, they must also be able to jump!
Where the special effects actors dare not jump, they have to jump too!
In some ways, they are a combination of skill and guts.
The photographer Wu Jing found was extremely capable and bold!
Just like an assassin in a MOBA game, you can rush into the arena at any time to complete the handsome harvest.
The only problem is ~
It's so crispy!
Jumping off the deck more than ten meters high, he was directly knocked out by the tension of the sea surface.
You know the tension, right?
Without strong enough physical fitness, it is simply impossible to withstand such an impact.
Moreover, unique entry techniques are also required.
Photographers need to control the machine while constantly controlling their bodies.
You can imagine how difficult it is!
There is more than one photographer in the crew, but who can guarantee that he will not be knocked unconscious when he goes down?
And the next time they stun them may not be tension, it may be the camera.
When the time comes, it may not be as simple as fainting.
The executive director found Wu Jing who was back on deck.
"Director Wu! Now there is only one solution! Split the shot of falling into the water into two segments! ”
"One is a long shot before the overboard, followed by a close-up shot from the moment of the fall to the aftermath!"
"The final editing is smoother, and it can achieve the effect of pseudo-one-shot to the end, which is still full of shock!"
One shot will definitely not be able to do it in the end, and there are not so many photographers who give Wu Jing trouble!
This is also the result of the unanimous discussion of the director team.
They are already very capable of thinking of alternative methods in such a short period of time.
Wu Jing also hesitated, what the director team said was indeed good.
Now the top priority is to film this scene first.
An extra day of delay here is tens of thousands of dollars!
But Wu Jing was unwilling, the most brilliant and shocking scene originally designed, but was directly cut in half!
This is indeed a blow to Wu Jing, who is still a rookie director.
Zhou Chen looked at the silent Wu Jing and finally decided to stand up.
"Brother Jing, why don't I try it!"
Wu Jing raised her head abruptly and looked at Zhou Chen with wide eyes.
"You?"
He does not doubt the physical fitness of the other party and the ability to control the body.
After all, Zhou Chen is a martial arts master!
Even if it was ten, it would be difficult for him to compare to Zhou Chen.
But this is shooting, not being filmed!
Zhou Chen needs to control his body as well as the camera.
"Zhou'er, have you ever touched the camera?"
Zhou Chen shook his head.
"It's true that I haven't touched the camera, but is there anything else you can do now?"
"Or you listen to the executive director, use a fake shot to the end!"
It is always faster to let Zhou Chen learn photography skills than to let those photographers improve their physical fitness.
Sometimes there are only so many choices, so put them in front of Wu Jing and let him choose.
Wu Jing thought for a moment and nodded.
"I'll let someone from the camera crew come and teach you!"
Photography is an easy thing to do, but the hard thing is to shoot well.
When the people in the camera crew and the director team heard that Wu Jing wanted Zhou Chen, a person who had never touched the camera, to shoot, they exploded directly.
"Director Wu, you're not kidding! Teacher Zhou's play is good, we are convinced! But this shooting is different! ”
"We have to figure out the concept of filming and being photographed."
"Director Wu, if you insist on doing this, we will not be responsible if something happens."
The formation of the crew is generally that there is a director who wants to film, and then pulls people everywhere.
Very few directors, or film and television companies, will directly maintain a professional camera team.
Therefore, the photography team of "Wolf Warrior 2" is also a professional team found by Wu Jing.
Although in the crew, they listen to Wu Jing, they will also give their own opinions.
Don't underestimate the cinematographers in the crew, a large part of what the movie can look like depends on them.
From the production of the pre-shot script to the selection of the later shots, the photographer must be involved in the whole process.
Therefore, most directors must respect the opinions of the camera crew.
After all, the other party's opinion is more professional.
Of course, if you say that a director like Zhang is a photographer, forget it.
But Wu Jing is different, although he is an actor, he has a strong temper!
You can put forward your opinions, but it depends on Wu Jing herself whether you listen to them or not.
He looked at a few excited photographers and ordered directly:
"Lao Tzu's movie, Lao Tzu has the final say! You guys go teach Zhou Chen to shoot now! ”
"Something's going on, I'm responsible!"
As a director, sometimes you need to be decisive and domineering.
The crew also knew Wu Jing's temper and stopped talking.
Several photographers walked towards Zhou Chen with a machine.
Originally, Wu Jing planned to shoot today, but now it can only be postponed.
He took the actors of the crew to continue to practice the first scene, while the cinematographer was teaching Zhou Chen how to operate the camera.
In fact, it is not difficult to learn how to operate.
It's hard to practice!
In just over half an hour, Zhou Chen already basically understood how to use this machine.
The photographer said to Zhou Chen:
"Teacher Zhou, next, we can find some moving objects to try to shoot."
"One of the things you have to pay attention to is that you have to frame the moving object firmly in the shot."
"Also, you must not be off-focused!"
As long as these two points can be completed, the photographer is considered qualified.
But most people can't!
Even many elderly people who have been in the crew for many years may still cause false focus during filming.
And with such a large machine, it is also a problem to maintain stability.
This camera doesn't have a gimbal~
In the following time, Zhou Chen held the camera and kept shooting everything around him.
The first time he used a camera, it was still a very novel experience for him.
The crowds around, the seabirds in the sky, the waves in the distance.
Everything is put in the camera.
From a photographer to a photographer!
It's an amazing feeling!
Patting and patting, Zhou Chen has left the photographer who guided him behind.
It's not that the photographer doesn't want to be optimistic about Zhou Chen, after all, it's a machine of hundreds of thousands.
Instead, now everyone in the camera crew and the director team is crowded in front of the monitors.
The eyes of the people widened as if they had seen a monster.
The executive director looked at the very stable picture, and said to the photographer on the side with some incredulity:
"Lao Zhang, are you sure Zhou Chen only studied for an hour?"
"Is there really no gimbal on the camera?"
The photographer nodded affirmatively.
"The gimbal is too fragile, I must not have it!"
When everyone heard this, their eyes changed again.
"What a monster!"
