"Director Wu is really amazing."

In the No. 1 hall of Beijing Cinema in the Light and Shadow Era, Yu Yi, Yuan Hong, Zhu Yawen, Jin Sha, Tang Yan, Yang Mi and other contracted artists of the Light and Shadow Era sat together, watching "Interstellar" being shown on the big screen, and couldn't help but exclaim with emotion.

The experience of an IMAX 3D movie is truly extraordinary.

Even if everyone is an industry insider, they have entered the cinema to experience this novel movie when "Avatar" was popular, but when they see "Interstellar" again, they will still be shocked by this novel movie-watching experience.

The touching story, the future world of science fiction, the beautiful Anne Hathaway and Liu Yifei, each of which can trigger a lot of discussions among them.

Of course, no matter how these topics unfold, they will always end up skewed to the next two films that the company will make.

"Hey, will "Soul Ferry: Yellow Springs" and "The Legend of Shushan Xianxia" be filmed in IMAX 3D at that time?"

"I don't know, the company hasn't released any news about this."

"If only it was shot in IMAX 3D, the audience would definitely want to go to the cinema!"

Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin chatted in a whisper.

After "Avatar" set off a 3D wave, there have been 3D movies and IMAX movies in China relatively quickly, the former such as "Monkey King", and the latter such as "Tangshan Earthquake"

But IMAX 3D movies have not yet appeared.

At present, the most popular is the 3D blockbuster "New Dragon Gate Inn" made by Xu Laowei.

As the annual masterpiece of Bona Films, "New Dragon Gate Inn" has been highly concerned by the industry and the media since its preparation.

Xu Lao Wei is a very bold person, and he likes to try new things very much, so he can be said to be the James Cameron of the Chinese film industry.

At that time, when the domestic film special effects technology was still very immature, he boldly tried the mature movie special effects in Hollywood and filmed a "Legend of Shushan".

Before "The Legend of Shu Mountain" was completed, Stephen Chow's "Shaolin Football" claimed to have used more than 400 stunt shots, thus becoming the most Hong Kong film.

Compared with "The Legend of Shushan", "Shaolin Football" is obviously a small thing, and Xu Laowei's "The Legend of Shushan" uses a total of more than 1,600 stunt shots, which can definitely be called "unprecedented" among Hong Kong films.

Last year, Xu Laowei made a more mature special effects blockbuster "Di Renjie: The Empire of Heaven", which had its world premiere in Venice on September 5, and the mainland was scheduled for September 29, barely staggering the schedule with "Interstellar" for half a month.

There is no way, "The Empire of Babel" was finalized by "Interstellar" first, and after "Interstellar" was finalized, Huayi once considered changing the file, but because "Interstellar" was finalized too late, it was hurriedly finalized half a month before the release, and the withdrawal of "Babel Empire" was a little too urgent at this time.

Sometimes, the release of the movie is to earn a momentum, and once that anger is vented, the follow-up may not be able to be brought up again, so Huayi can only bite the bullet and not withdraw the file, just bet that "Interstellar" will be released in two weeks and take off!

And Xu Laowei doesn't worry about this, his mind is already on his new movie.

On July 7, it was reported that the 2010 version of the 3D martial arts blockbuster "New Dragon Gate Inn" was officially named "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", and the original start time of June was changed to October.

As soon as this news came out, it caused quite an uproar.

In the face of various speculations, Yu Dong, president of Bona Films, had to stand up and say that the postponement was mainly for 3D.

This time, Xu Laowei's "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" will not only be made into a 3D movie, but also shot with an IMAX stereo camera to do IMAX 3D!

In order to establish a mature 3D team and base in China, Xu Laowei has spent two years learning from overseas teams, challenging the major incurable problems of 3D technology, and finding scientific and reasonable solutions.

Therefore, the test time for 3D shooting was extended, from the original 1 month to 3 months, plus the time reserved for Xu Laowei to promote "The Empire of Babel", it was postponed to October and then started.

As soon as this news came out, it exploded on the mainland Internet.

It took three months to test the 3D shooting effect with real knives and guns, which is the first case in China.

Even Wu Yuan didn't do this when he was filming "Interstellar", but just tried shooting for three or five days, and then started filming directly.

Of course, this is also the reason why Wu Yuan has made a lot of 3D movies in his dreams, and his experience has long been accumulated.

Although it is known as a "test shooting", the workload and manpower and material resources invested in the test shooting are almost the same as making a real 3D movie, and he is reluctant to spend 3 months on the test shooting, which is relatively double the shooting cost.

That is to say, Xu Laowei really has no experience in the shooting of 3D movies, so he can only exchange money for experience, burn money to run in the 3D team, and spend real money to master and skillfully use IMAX stereo cameras.

However, even this Xu Lao Wei was afraid that he would mess up because of his inexperience, regardless of the fact that "Tongtian Empire" and "Interstellar" were half of the competitors in the same period, he also came to the premiere scene today, and asked Cheng Long and Chen Kun to match up and ask Wu Yuan how to make IMAX 3D movies.

Wu Yuan of course recognized the behavior of a great director like Xu Laowei who was so brave to try and eat crabs, and he didn't have any intention of hiding it, sitting with him, watching the premiere, and discussing with Xu Laowei on the picture in the movie.

How to use IMAX stereo camera to maximize its advantages, some differences between 3D movies and 2D movie shooting techniques, how to stand when the actors are walking, can better show the 3D stereoscopic effect......

"Director Wu, there are so many directors across the Taiwan Strait, so you have experience in shooting IMAX 3D movies."

After listening to Wu Yuan's unreserved tips and small details for shooting a large number of 3D movies, Xu Lao Wei said strangely: "If you have time, you can come to the "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" crew to explore the class, and give me on-site guidance." ”

"Hey, I can't talk about pointing." Wu Yuan waved his hand and said humbly: "I just made a film, learn from each other, learn from each other." ”

"You mainland directors love to be humble." Xu Laowei said nonchalantly: "Backwardness is backwardness, in terms of 3D film shooting, you are a top director in Hollywood." ”

"Except for that Cameron, now that your Interstellar is an IMAX 3D movie, it's not wrong to say that you're the second person in this field."

"I'm sure I'm going to learn from you with an open mind."

Old Monster Xu is very generous, what do you say, and once again won Wu Yuan's favorability value.

It's much more enjoyable than chatting with hypocritical directors who pretend to be sophisticated.

Wu Yuan also said without hesitation: "I will definitely visit the class if I have the opportunity." ”

"Zhou Xun and Chen Kun are friends I met before I became a director, and if I have time, I will definitely visit your class."

"Then I'll just sit and wait for Director Wu to come to your door." When Old Monster Xu heard this, the folds on his face burst into laughter.
