"Director Li Qian's new film "Truman's World" is officially launched, which will tell an inspirational legend to the audience!"

"This afternoon, the much-anticipated comedy film "Truman's World" was officially launched in Jiangning, and director Li Qian and a group of actors and actresses were all present to reveal the biggest secret of the new film on the spot, "Truman's World" is a new comedy with brain holes!"

""Truman's World" Jiangning was launched, 1.6 billion director Li Qian set sail again, Deng Chao, Tong Liya, Li Baotian, Pan Hong, Jin Shijie, Zhang Wei, Lei Jiayin and other old, middle-aged and young actors joined together to create a classic comedy!"

"Li Qian innovates again, and the brain hole of "Truman's World" is kept secret", I want to give the audience the biggest surprise!"

......

After the press conference, hundreds of reporters present sent out news that was not nutritious.

The back and forth is inspirational, brainstorming, and there is no substantive news on the face.

It has been ten months since "I Am Not the God of Medicine", and "Truman's World" is also the movie that the audience has been waiting for Li Qian for the longest time.

However, after waiting for ten months, the camera was finally launched, but there was only such a little information, and the audience was not satisfied.

"What the hell is ??? all this news, no useful information at all?"

"I rubbed, the only thing I didn't know before was that "Truman's World" was a brain-seeking movie, and there was a list of actors, and there was no other superfluous information. ”

"If it weren't for the photos of the launch event, I would have thought it was fake news. ”

"It's really the worst journalist I've ever seen, and this information is a piece of. ”

"Isn't this the same as saying it in vain, before "I Am Not the God of Medicine" I knew it was a story about the pharmaceutical industry, "I Am a Legend" was a post-apocalyptic science fiction, and even the most mysterious "Moon" also knew that it was a story that happened on the moon, but what does this "Truman's World" have?

"These reporters are too wasteful, and they are very energetic in reporting all kinds of true and false scandals, and they are useless at critical moments. ”

"Don't say that, I know it's a story with the real world, not another world or something like that."

"Waste journalists, leave the group. ”

"I have to wait for the Chinese New Year file to be released, it's only been more than four months, with Li Qian's fast gunman speed, the filming will be completed in two or three months, and the post-production will be done in another month, and the National Day file will definitely be released. ”

"It's good that the National Day file will be released, it's two months early, so you don't have to wait so long!"

"It's impossible to have a National Day file, Li Qian and Ma Xiaogang have made an appointment for the New Year. ”

It's funny to say, the comedy director went to make a tragedy, but Li Qian changed careers to make comedy. ”

"I slipped away, there is no news about this movie on the Internet, I will go to the Xinzhou studio in two days to see, anyway, it is not far from my house. ”

......

The new film was launched, but this time it was not as loud as the first two starts, and the discussion was much quieter.

There really wasn't much useful information coming out, and there was no direction for discussion.

Comedy, brainstorming, inspirational, this can be discussed with a hammer.

He also scolded incompetent journalists.

The reporters were also helpless, they couldn't ask anything, and they couldn't help it, they couldn't tie up Li Qian and torture him.

Even if you want to, you don't have a chance.

You can't lead them astray from the beginning and report in the direction of the drama of the rich family's grievances, it will be similar to running a train with a mouthful of mouths.

However, two old men who grew up watching Truman, as well as Truman's parents, first girlfriend, and wife.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like an emotional movie, maybe Truman is not biological?

Is the first girlfriend actually the daughter of her biological parents?

That's not right, Jin Shijie and Wang Deshun are both men, not a man and a woman.

Could it be a little more complicated?

"Rub!"

Lu Chao in the hotel pondered all night yesterday, and he didn't come up with anything from the available information.

As a loyal fan of Li Qian and a professional entertainment reporter of Xinlang News, Lu Chao did not allow his information to lag so slowly, changed into a less eye-catching clothes, and took a taxi straight to the Central China Film and Television Base, wanting to find out.

......

And many eyes in the industry are also on the official launch of "Truman's World", which has invisibly increased the pressure and sense of urgency of major companies.

At the same time, the attention to movies is no less than that of fans.

Huang Zhongjun tried to sandwich Li Qian with two heavyweight blockbusters, "Zodiac" and "1942", the biggest reason is that this is a comedy.

Comedy requires talent, not only for directors, but also for actors.

As far as comedy is concerned, Ma Xiaogang obviously has more right to speak, Huang Zhongjun believes what he said, Li Qian doesn't have enough life experience, he can't make any classics, at most it's a good funny film.

And Ma Xiaogang, who was on the Chongqing set, also heard that Li Qian's new comedy film had started.

Although Ma Xiaogang, who claims to be a master of comedy, doesn't think Li Qian can make any good comedy, he still asked, "What is it about?"

"I didn't say it, it's an inspirational comedy, and it's also brainy and creative. ”

"Brain holes?"

Ma Xiaogang smiled disdainfully, this is what Li Qian has always been good at, and in terms of creativity, he also admits that Li Qian is better at it as a young man.

But what is comedy?

It is relying on the story and core to resonate with the audience and make them laugh from the heart, and creativity is not fundamental.

also made comedies with the mentality of making other movies before, and Ma Xiaogang was more relieved.

With a wave of his hand, he energetically asked the crew, who had only taken a two-minute break, to continue to work, "Okay, it's almost time to rest, get ready, continue!"

......

Another master of comedy, Zhou Xingchi, was also watching the news about Li Qian's new film at this time.

As the best comedian and director in China, Zhou Xingchi is very interested in Li Qian, a director who made realistic movies that sold 1.6 billion yuan, but switched to comedy.

However, he was disappointed, there was no useful information on the news, and he still knew nothing.

Shaking his head with some pity, Zhou Xingchi continued to be busy with his work.

There are not too many directors who pay attention to Li Qian's new films, and there is hardly any director who will not pay attention to the new films of 1.6 billion directors.

To everyone's disappointment, though, so far, they don't know anything about the movie.

......

Li Qian, who is in the center of the industry, knows nothing about the care of the outside world, and in order to watch the movie at that time, the necessary secrecy is still needed.

After the start-up press conference, Li Qian was not busy shooting, this time there was enough time, and the construction progress of the location may not be able to keep up with the filming schedule.

At least the whole city searched for Truman's footage at night, that big panorama, and then it would definitely have to wait for this side to be completed.

In the evening, I continued to meet with the creators to discuss the filming later.

The difficulty of filming this time is actually not small, and the biggest difficulty is the camera in addition to Deng Chao's performance.

There will be a lot of footage from the monitors in the movie, allowing the audience to enjoy the movie from the perspective of the camera in the show, which can better reflect the realism of the story and also show that Truman lives in an unreal world.

In the finished film, many of these shots will be slightly occluded at the four corners to highlight the realism.

Panorama, long shot, medium distance, close-up, almost every kind of lens is used a lot in the whole film, and the scene scheduling and lens scheduling are complex and changeable.

However, standing on the shoulders of giants, all this is infinitely simplified, and this time, in addition to the storyboard, more than a third of the shots are focused on storyboarding, and sufficient preparation has been made.

The crew, which was ready to go, started work early the next morning after breakfast.

The crew of 200 people, as well as the extras of more than 300 people, gathered in the square in the center of the Central China Film and Television Base.

There are a lot of group performances in the movie, and the group actors also play group performances in the movie, but you don't need to reveal anything to them, just explain what to do.

And some group performances that have repeatedly left the country have found some professional actors in the Jiangning Drama Theater and various theaters, which is equivalent to following the group actors.

The first day was filmed at the beginning of the scene where Truman went to work, and the square in the center of this small town, as well as the surrounding area, had been arranged with a very lively atmosphere before Li Qian came.

There are various storefronts on the roadside, and there are many street vendors, all kinds of people and vehicles are ready.

As the executive director, Guo Fan, with seven or eight assistant directors, is explaining the next scenes with the group actors.

Li Qian was also talking to Deng Chao, "Brother Chao, remember what I told you before, just the various qualities of Truman, kindness, politeness, enthusiasm, intelligence, nostalgia, cowardice, timidity, no assertiveness, different occasions and time periods, appropriately show the characteristics that should be possessed." ”

"I understand that at the beginning when Truman did not have doubts, life was carefree, kindness, politeness, warmth, and cheerfulness were the key.

Deng Chao nodded, after such a long time of research, he found that he and Truman also have some similarities, he has the advantages and disadvantages of Truman, he is not small, but sometimes he is cowardly.

"There is nothing difficult in this scene, the steps are brisk, the face is always full of sincere smiles, and when you meet people, you are very casual and enthusiastic, just like a friend for many years. ”

Deng Chao got the script in early December, and now in mid-April, more than five months, it's time to eat it thoroughly, Li Qian briefly talked about it.

There are more group performances, and the preparation time is longer.

arranged a group performance and tried the audition, and almost an hour passed.

Guo Fan raised the loudspeaker, glanced at it, and announced loudly, "Okay, unrelated personnel leave." ”

"The fifth scene, one shot at a time!"

"Let's go!"

At the sound of the order, three seconds later, the entire street was moved according to the previous orders.

Li Qian sat on a chair and stared earnestly at the five or six monitors in front of him.

Not only are there many actors, but there are also many camera positions, and five camera crews shoot with five cameras, which is not counting the panoramic view of aerial photography.

This is still less, after all, Li Qian can avoid unnecessary waste.

In the monitor, all kinds of people start their day, some students carry school bags to school, some office workers eat breakfast while walking, and some elderly people go out for a walk and buy groceries.

Cars, electric vehicles, bicycles, the three main means of transportation, and there are also shared cars, electric vehicles, and bicycles that pass by on the streets.

Even skateboards.

However, compared to the slow and busy life in the early morning, the monitor at this time is not tense at all.

Even if someone is walking and eating breakfast with a briefcase, they all look like they are not going to work, but just hanging out, and they are not worried about being late at all.

There were also people stopping to chat on the side of the road, and some people buying breakfast at the breakfast shop.

It's not what any city center should be, and everyone lives at a very slow pace.

In fact, the surrounding area is full of two- and three-story buildings, and there is no sense of oppression in a big city, but all the buildings are full of modernity, and there are contradictions everywhere.

A few seconds later, Deng Chao appeared in the camera, wearing a slightly loose suit with an equally relaxed expression, holding a briefcase in one hand and casually inserting the other hand in his pocket.

I walked and trotted two steps, but I didn't run for the fear of being late, I was purely happy.

On the way, I occasionally met someone I knew to say hello, and when I passed by a Wallace fast food restaurant, I was stopped by two group performers who looked a little similar, and they asked him very enthusiastically about the insurance business.

One of them pressed Deng Chao's shoulders and made him lean against the wall, and the camera slowly advanced at this point, giving the wall a special shot.

Next to it is the Wallace fast food restaurant, and on the wall is a huge poster, with the words Wallace and some hamburgers and chicken thighs and the like.

The close-up shot lasted for more than two seconds, and Li Qian received 10 million in these two seconds, and he will repeat such a shot later, more than once.

This is the deliberate behavior of the program team in the movie, and it is normal for variety shows to place ads.

changed to the usual movie, such a slightly blunt implantation is awkward, but in this movie, after watching it, you will suddenly find that it is so!

Deng Chao also subconsciously turned his head and looked at the hand pressed on his shoulder, in the same situation, Truman had encountered it many times, and there was something strange in his eyes.

Deng Chao began to explain the insurance business to the two, and the two people on the other side also listened attentively.

After speaking, the two of them left with a smile on their faces that I would consider, and said that they would go to Truman to buy insurance in two days.

"You must remember to come to me, there is a discount for the twins!" Deng Chao shouted with a smile from afar, and he was a professional insurance salesman.

"Okay, click!"

After filming, Li Qian immediately shouted to stop and picked up the walkie-talkie, "Two teachers, when you mention that you still have something to say goodbye, the teacher who is close to the camera must have an obvious thinking action, because this is all designed, and the purpose of your conversation is just to let Deng Chao stop here, for the close-up advertisement of the poster on the wall." ”

It takes a very deliberate performance here, in fact, there are a lot of deliberate performances in the whole movie, and the two group actors stopped Deng Chao deliberately, achieving the purpose of advertising, and it is also deliberate to leave.

are all veteran actors of the Jiangning Troupe, although I don't understand why Li Qian, the director, did such a deliberate advertising placement, but there is nothing to say, just perform according to the director's requirements.

The first shot was shot four times, followed by a close-up of the two of them.

There are not only many close-ups of Truman in the movie, but also many close-ups of group performances.

It's an overhead shot that looks like the two actors have become short and depressed, deliberately highlighting their insignificance and comicality.

This kind of obvious close-up from different angles is to show the characteristics of the characters most directly.

The front scenes are all slightly simpler, but the group performers don't know the content of the movie, especially the professional teachers of the troupe, and sometimes they don't have the deliberate feeling of performing.

Overall, it went well, I took three shots in the morning, and I had lunch when I arrived.

Lu Chao, who was mixed in the group performance, also lined up to receive the meal.

In order to find out, he came to be a group performer before dawn early in the morning, although he had recruited enough when he came, but he still bribed an assistant director in charge of the group performance and successfully became a group performer in the crew.

"Whew, it's okay!"

After passing the test in the morning, Lu Chao breathed a long sigh of relief, and hurriedly took the boxed lunch and hid to eat it, for fear of being seen by Li Qian.

Although I am not sure if Li Qian recognizes himself, after all, he has done an interview before, and it will be embarrassing if he is recognized.

While eating, Lu Chao was also thinking.

He didn't shoot a few shots in the morning, but he made a big discovery.

For the sake of advertising placement, the first shot was so blunt, as a passing group performance, he felt particularly unnatural when he passed by.

Moreover, there was also a shot of Deng Chao greeting a person on the side of the road, and it was clear that there was a camera position that gave a close-up to the logo of a car next to him.

Three shots, just two ad placements.

Li Qian, you have fallen!

Lu Chao sighed, and was a little depressed with his meal, but he didn't expect Li Qian to start learning from Ma Xiaogang in this film.

It's the same as "If It's True, Don't Disturb", it's all implanted for the sake of implantation, I really don't know what Li Qian thinks.

As a loyal fan of Li Qian, Lu Chao is heartbroken!
