Chapter 282: Whimsical Ideas Can Be Opened
What is the originator? What does it mean?
Everyone sitting here knows it.
This thing is not comparable to the gold and silver awards, and the provincial excellent department.
A few years later, as long as people mention this field, the one who comes to mind can be called the top spot in this area.
Otherwise, it's all about rest!
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be," Tewei shook his two hands together: "The title of the originator of the mountain, where do I dare to be!" ”
Jiang Shan knew that he didn't dare: "Special factory director, this is not a matter of daring, but it is a fact." ”
Tewei smiled and pointed to Jiangshan: "What facts, there is nothing at all." ”
"You must have more film knowledge than me, right?"
"I dare to take this!"
"Then if I ask you," Jiang Shan said with a smile, "Our first movie, do you know who directed it?" ”
"If you want to talk about the first movie in China," Tewei smiled slightly: "Naturally, it has to be Ren Qingtai's "Dingjun Mountain"!" ”
In December 1905, Ren Qingtai, the owner of Yanjing Fengtai Photo Studio, filmed a movie "Dingjun Mountain" starring the famous Peking Opera actor Tan Xinpei.
"You're right," Jiang Shan said: "If I say that Ren Xintai is the originator of our movie, do you have no opinion?" ”
Tewei immediately nodded in agreement: "Of course." ”
"Then I'll ask everyone again," Jiang Shan looked at the circle of people in the room: "Who directed our first national art cartoon?" ”
As soon as the words fell, one of the people sitting was counted as one, and they all looked at their old factory director: "Tewei~"
Even Director Xu turned sideways at the special factory director beside him: "Tewei~"
"......" After the old factory director was stunned for two or three seconds, he pointed to Jiangshan and said with a smile: "I was surrounded by your little comrade, and I almost believed it myself." ”
Jiang Shan: "It doesn't matter who says this, everything has to look at the record of time, just like if I want to ask ...... the first comedy movie after the reform and opening up?" ”
Pan Hong, Liu Xiaoqing and Chen Peisi: "Look at this family". ”
"Who is the male lead of this comedy?"
A room of voices rang out: "Chen Peisi." ”
Even Chen Peisi herself shouted.
Look at Tewei on the other end again, hahaha can't even hold the cigarette.
"It seems that the title of the originator, I don't want to wear it,"
In the end, Tewei simply let go and slapped the cigarette case in his hand on the table: "If you want me to say, the screenwriter, cameraman, arranger, and animation design of "The Proud General" are all the originators, don't even think about running away......"
"Good!"
After a round of applause, everyone began to talk about each other again.
The laughter of threes and twos will sound from time to time.
The number of melon seeds and peanuts on the table is gradually disappearing in various forms.
"You know what?"
Director Wang Xiang, who had been sitting beside him, said to Jiang Shan, a small group of people: "After "The Proud General", our director made another art film, and that film is the real opening work......
At the end of 1957, the People's Daily published an article entitled "Setting off a New High in Agricultural Production".
Soon, the Ministry of Culture issued a notice that Pujiang Meiying Studio also joined the research team of "technological innovation".
Tewei, the director of the factory who completed the filming of "Pride", just reported the research plan of "ink cartoon" that he had already envisioned.
However, when the news of the approval of the plan came back, the factory began to struggle again.
After repeated meetings and studies by several key cadres, there is still no clue which subject to choose for ink paintings.
One morning, Xu Jingda, the set designer of the American Film Studio (the director of the three monks), was about to wash his face when he suddenly saw the printed "Shrimp" on the bottom of the enamel basin.
A few ink prawns of the Qi family brand, watered by Xu Jingda's clear face water, actually swam slightly for a while.
This scene fell in the eyes of the employees of the American Film Studio, isn't it just an ink animation!
Xu Jingda hurriedly told the factory director Tewei about this idea.
It is also a coincidence, not long after the plan was finalized, Mr. Chen met Comrade Tewei at an art film exhibition in Yanjing.
After listening to Tewei's report, he said with a smile: "I hope your research can successfully make Qi Baishi's paintings move." ”
The first thing to solve is the shooting technology of ink animation.
Duan Xiaoxuan, who was in charge of the filming work, decided to try shooting a short picture first.
After looking through a lot of albums of Qi Baishi's works, Duan Xiaoxuan chose a frog that rested on a lotus leaf.
After shooting and developing the film, she dried the film with a hair dryer and sent it to the screening room overnight.
When several people saw the little frog with pure ink, jumping into the water from the lotus leaf, they all screamed excitedly.
Since then, after countless improvements and fine-tuning, the playback screen of ink animation has become more natural and smooth day by day.
So, Tewei, who has a skill in hand, began to prepare the script.
In the early 50s, Lao She asked Qi Lao to paint a picture with the title of a sentence by the Qing Dynasty poet Cha Shenxing, "The sound of frogs comes out of the mountain spring for ten miles".
After thinking about it again, a masterpiece of ink painting "Ten Miles of Frog Sound Out of the Mountain Spring" was completed.
Then, after thinking about it again, the painting became the subject of the ink cartoon of the American Film Studio.
Since the success of the experiment with ink animation technology, everything seems to have gone smoothly.
First, the theme was established without much effort, and then the story of "Little Tadpole Looking for Mother" was simply used to quote the topic.
All of a sudden, the picture and the script came to life.
Under the rhythm of the "Great Leap Forward" of the whole people, in order to create the art film "Little Tadpole Looking for Mother", the United States Film Studio decided to go into battle with all its members.
Each performs its own duties and cross-operates.
Draw shrimp for shrimp, draw frog for frog......
One of the female painters in charge of drawing small tadpoles simply carved a seal in order to keep up with the progress of the hordes of tadpoles.
Bang bang bang bang, knock all the way to victory.
Finally, with the full cooperation of the cadres and workers of the whole factory, it took less than half a year for the studio to shoot the world's first ink painting art film "Little Tadpole Looking for Mother".
In the film, Zhang Ruifang plays the narrator's voice, which gives "Little Tadpole Looking for Mother" an indelible atmosphere of the times.
As the inventor of the filming technology of this film, Duan Xiaoxuan also won several awards at that time.
The filming technique of ink animation is still a secret that cannot be disclosed."
On the way to the studio, several migrant workers still gathered around Director Wang: "Unfortunately, a copy of this art film was stolen abroad. ”
Chen Peisi: "There is still such a thing? ”
Jiang Shan: "Which one can do it?" ”
"After "Little Tadpole Looking for Mother" was broadcast abroad one after another, many animation peers came to ask about the shooting technology of ink animation, but we rejected them one by one.
As a result, we still found that part of the film was missing from the copy of the film recovered from the Czech Republic, and after a long time we found no results. ”
"What then?"
"What can I do, I have to leave it alone."
When the group was thinking about this, a room suddenly came into view and immediately made them laugh again.
"Ah," Pan Hong walked into the studio of "Avanti" with joy in her eyes: "There are so many little Avanti." ”
Looking at the puppeteers piled up with prop racks, Liu Xiaoqing leaned over in three steps and two steps:
"Now I finally know how the movie "Avanti" was made."
And this time, Jiang Shan also went straight to the shooting station.
The three cameras facing the workbench looked at each other.
In his memory, some manufacturers in this era have already launched long-distance macro lenses for photographing insects.
"How?"
Director Xu, who had been following him, asked in a low voice, "These machines still meet the requirements, right?" ”
Before Jiang Shan could speak, Duan Xiaoxuan's voice rang out on the side.
"Two Japanese-Ben sonys, one West German brownie, plus my macro shooting skills......"
When Jiang Shan heard this, he quickly turned around and met Duan Xiaoxuan's smiling eyes: "I believe that you will definitely be able to take the wonderful pictures I need." ”
