Disaster Artist

"Attention! All units, please pay attention!"

Shasha, Shasha... Lu Qian's voice came from the walkie-talkie, all the busy staff stopped and looked in the direction of Lu Qian.

Lu Qian's position is a little farther.

When shooting a movie, the actors are performing in the scene, the cameraman and lighting engineer are on the front line to capture the picture, but everyone else needs to keep a distance, mainly for the movement of the cameraman and the actors, evacuate the crowd and keep the venue spacious , then how should others work?

The sound engineer hides in the corner away from the camera and captures the live sound through the sensitive radio microphone:

First, you need to make sure that the actor's dialogue can be included; second, you need to ensure that noise is eliminated as much as possible - although the soundtrack can be adjusted in post-production, the live shooting also needs to be as natural as possible.

So the sound engineer is always curled up in the corner with his sound-isolating headphones, and if he doesn't pay attention, he may completely forget his existence.

What about the director?

The director is often not "on the spot", and keeps a certain distance from the shooting site, watching the entire shooting through the monitor screen, including details such as the lens picture, lighting effects, actor performances, etc., and then controls each group through the walkie-talkie to make adjustments.

In other words, everyone is closely responsible for their professional work, but the director needs to be distanced to coordinate the overall situation.

As for mastering the overall style and habits, then it depends on the director.

Some directors tend to eliminate all distractions. Not only will he move the monitor further away to give himself a separate space, but he will also cover the monitor with a black curtain. It creates a viewing environment similar to a movie theater, and eliminates the interference of surrounding light and sound, and is immersed in the picture.

Some directors tend to integrate into the scene. While watching the shooting through the monitor, they will also watch the scene dynamic, adjust the shooting details anytime and anywhere according to the scene conditions, and even play on the spot according to the situation of the day, modify the picture in their minds, anytime, anywhere. Accept the shock of inspiration.

Lu Qian was more inclined towards the latter.

But whether it is the former or the latter, the position of the monitor needs to be kept at a certain distance to avoid interfering with the framing angle and line of the shooting scene.

With the sound of Lu Qian's voice, all the eyes of the crew gathered in the same direction.

In the hustle and bustle, Lu Qian could clearly feel the difference—

Before "unfriending", the entire crew was less than 20 people, and the shooting space was two floors of the villa; but now, the entire crew has more than 100 people, and the crew alone has as many as 30 people, and then There are more than 70 actors, including stand-ins and group performances. More importantly, the shooting space is a fourteen-story apartment building that includes a playground.

This feeling is like cultivating an immortal.

The coverage area of ​​the brain’s consciousness instantly expanded tenfold or twentyfold, and naturally, the energy expended also increased exponentially.

Lu Qian realized that his attention could not completely cover all corners, and the excitement of challenging the limit was a little nervous and a little excited.

"People always say that movies are dreaming, and imagination is the only limit."

"In the next period of time, I hope to present the dream that I constructed in my mind, a dark, violent, bloody, but exciting, wonderful and graceful dream, but I need your help, obviously relying only on myself. The power of the man cannot accomplish such a feat."

"Welcome to the world of movies, let's do some magic."

"The Raid" is already Lu Qian's second feature film, so he's not unfamiliar, but facing such a huge crew, the whole feeling is still different. For a while, thoughts surged in his mind, and then Lu Qian felt it. , The arrogance of pointing the country in the midst of chatting and laughing burst out like this.

Simple words, but inadvertently make people's blood boil—

Using magic to create movies, some are secondary, some are youthful, and some are beautiful.

"Hoohoho!"

Su Ziyi was the first to start screaming and howling, and then the others also responded, beating pots and pans and making noises in response.

Chen Mu couldn't help rolling his eyes, expressing his disgust: Don't only middle school students believe in middle school students? This is so stupid!

However, the smile on the corner of Chen Mu's mouth still rose uncontrollably. He also realized this and forcibly suppressed the smile, but his mood was still high.

Then, Lu Qian's voice came from the walkie-talkie.

"There are still thirteen minutes until the sunrise, very good, all units are ready."

"We have rehearsed many times for the first scene to start. Everyone should keep their attention and ensure the quality and efficiency of the shooting as much as possible. Don't miss the sunrise time, otherwise you have to do it again tomorrow."

"All in place!"

Outside the crew, the reporters were still hustle and bustle at the front of the blockade, and they could vaguely see the scene where the crew was preparing for the first scene. The rustling discussion sounded like a breeze.

In the crew, everyone has already entered the battle preparation, one by one with high fighting spirit, gearing up to start shooting.

The night seems to be getting more and more intense. Not only is there no sunlight, but you can also feel that the overwhelming darkness is swallowing the surrounding temperature. The world has escaped into a cold, and entered the darkest world before dawn.

Then-

A halo of light appeared at the junction of the sea and the sky, rich, chaotic, deep, quiet, with a little mystery, like a sleeping giant beast, but its steady breathing was making a thunderous sound. Mo Youlan was also infected with vitality, and he really breathed.

For a short period of time before and after the sun rises or sets, the ambient light is very low, and the whole world is full of rich blue tones, exuding a mysterious and profound magnificence, and words are simply not enough to describe the 1/10,000th of the light. , known as the blue hour, which is also known as the perfect photographic moment.

Lu Qian had been waiting for this "blue moment", trying to capture the thrilling moment of dawn.

Shhh...

The entire crew was silent. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

"'Raid,' August 21st, first scene, first attempt."

"Start shooting!"

After receiving Lu Qian's instructions, the voice of the field record cut through the sky, breaking the silence and officially announcing the start of the "raid".

Then, you can see Chen Mu sitting on the track, making sure the camera is stable and running smoothly, aiming the lens at the dark blue at the end of the world, like a natural documentary, using the lens to condense this moment into eternity, faintly, just Can feel the lens breathing.

Listen, that is the sound of the "giant beast" sleeping soundly.

Slowly, Chen Mu slowly pulled the camera back along the track, and pulled out a wide perspective. Little by little, he could see a row of SWAT officers lurking in the right corner of the camera, fully armed. There was no sound or movement, and it blended into the night silently.
