Chapter 799: The Church and the White Dove
"Are the bloody heroes all edited by Mr. Wu?" Billy Christo asked curiously.
"It's not." Wu Yusen shook his head and said, "A lot of them I have edited myself, but more of them are good if I master the style."
"Then Mr. Wu, how did you master it, did you tell the editor how to cut?" Billy Crystal asked again.
Wu Yusen shook his head again: "I have mastered the style when I am shooting, I just need to ensure that the editor cuts out my ideas."
"How did you do that?" Billy Crystal didn't understand what Wu Yusen meant.
Wu Yusen had to explain in detail: "For example, when the editor Zhou Yanfa turned around and shot, I shot three angles when I filmed, one was a high angle overhead shot, he turned around and jumped up, the first angle of the machine, see him turn around and shoot, the other side angle, also a turn to shoot, three angles.
If you remove the head and tail of each clip, it's a continuous movement, three different angles, but only one turn. But when I put these three together, when I put them down, when the head and tail are not removed, it becomes three is a repetitive action, turn it, overhead shoot it, turn this piece, I said it's very good-looking, and it's very chic, I said that's it, no need to cut it, and as a result, this lens is used, this way of editing, it becomes a classic, this is my style, my editing method.
After the bloody duo, many movies began to imitate it, using this technique."
Billy Crystal was surprised and said, "How did you make such a trick that everyone imitated so inadvertently?"
Wu Yusen nodded proudly: "Yes, many of the innovative techniques we use in making movies, you often jump out of them inadvertently, or in some experiments like this." In some activities, some directors have asked me, and I said that if you use it in different places, it will have different meanings. “
"Mr. Wu, you said that you are very emotional when you make movies, and many classic shots are shot inadvertently, so what do you think about inspiration, and how do you grasp the feeling you want?" As the conversation deepened, Billy Crystal became interested in Wu Yusen, a great director from Hong Kong, who really became interested.
Although he is also an insider, it is the first time that he has such an in-depth understanding of film production and editing, and has such a face-to-face discussion with such a big director.
"That's what I think about inspiration, as a director, you have to try it when you inadvertently think of a point, maybe the result is not as good as you think, but it may be that a point that will become the only real shining point of your film.
Take me as an example, I pay a lot of attention to the inspiration and feeling of the scene, there is a scene in the bloody duo that is made by Zhou Runfa, in the dragon boat race, down a person, he drives a boat to a beach, he is a killer, he has a high degree of vigilance.
That scene is where there is a killer in ambush and he wants to hit him. At that time, I always thought that if he went ashore and looked up and the killer was over there, it would be fine, and that's how it usually works.
But I don't think it's glamorous enough, and it seems too ordinary to shoot Zhou Yanfa like this. Later, I thought, if the other party is holding that gun and has a sight, if there is a reflection, it should reflect it, but this killer, in order to let the other party know, how to find that someone is lying in ambush on it, does he have any surprised expression, pretending to be a false alarm.
Later, I thought about it, put on sunglasses for him, and then he took off the sunglasses, and put a pair of them to the side, the killer was on the mountain, and the lookout with the gun, the reflection, reflected in his eyes, and the lens could show the shrewdness of the killer. These inspirations were all conceived on the spot.
So I said to my team, you have to keep your eyes open, and all of a sudden I was passing by a tree, and I think it's beautiful, and help me carry it, and they carry it over quickly.
In Hong Kong, those peasants in the countryside are very fierce, if you cut down a tree from them, they will cut you with a knife. So with my play, the working group is more difficult. So often, sometimes, there are some tricks that come out of inspiration on the spot. “
"What do you think about the holy dove, Mr. Wu, how did you put the last gunfight in the church, where there are so many white doves representing peace?" Billy Crystal asks what is common to everyone who has said to have seen the bloody duo.
Regarding this question, Qiao Feng and Wu Yusen have communicated before and decided how to answer, so in the face of this question that many people want to know, Wu Yusen did not pause to think this time, but smiled directly: "Filming this scene, I know everyone must be very curious, how did that pigeon come about."
That's what I think, I think as a killer, what kind of inner world does he have, what kind of feelings, how should I describe such a killer, to shape.
Because he is not an ordinary killer, he is a person, what he does may not be recognized by everyone, what he does, there are right and wrong, but in our moral society, he is a wrong person, but he is very lonely, no one understands him, no one is willing to forgive him. “
"I can't understand it that way, although the killer in the bloody duo is not allowed by law, he is actually a person with his own bottom line morally." Billy Crystal pondered for a moment and said with good words.
"Yes, although it is called a killer, in fact, this killer is equal to the ancient swordsman on our side.
In fact, I shoot killers, for example, when I shoot "The True Color of Heroes", I am filming the story of a swordsman, and I am filming the story of a killer, and that killer is using a gun, which is equivalent to us swordsmen using swords.
He has nowhere to go, no one will be able to understand him and will accept him. I say the only place where there is a church. He can find a peace in that place, he can feel it, someone can accept him, so the hero's nature will be like that."
Brother Pony in the true colors of heroes and Xiao Zhuang in the bloody duo are actually the same kind of people, and they are not accepted by others.
Although Brother Xiao Ma has a good brother and a good big brother Brother Hao understands him, but Brother Hao who came out of prison obviously wants to reform himself.
So, he and the pony aren't all the way anymore.
Pony is thinking about getting back what he lost, and Brother Hao only decides to come back for the sake of his family and his good brother.
The starting points of the two are fundamentally different.
Under the theme of the hero's true colors, the pony had to die.
Only heaven belongs to ponies.
