Disaster Artist

"Wow...this shot...it's really hard to imagine how it was done half a century ago? This..."

The sea breeze sent a low-pitched sigh next to him, and the praises of astonishment and amazement overflowed between the lines, and then Lu Qian could feel a gaze cast from the direction of the source of the sound, unable to suppress his excitement and excitement, as if he couldn't wait to share his own Found in general, eager to try.

"Right? Can you believe this is an old movie from half a century ago?"

There was a shallow smile in Lu Qian's eyes, and he couldn't help but get excited—

In the classic masterpiece "Fright", the shot scheduling and emotional impact of the bathroom assassination near the end are undoubtedly the most widely circulated clips. Countless professional or amateur filmmakers have analyzed the composition of the entire shot and even Become an integral part of your film professional program.

However, the shots that the other party is sighing at this moment is not that group, but a group of shots that are widely ignored by people, because the shock of attention is focused on the story and ignores the impact of the shots themselves——

This is the scene where the detective falls back downstairs after being assassinated on the second floor.

Lu Qian was a little surprised that someone could notice this group of shots, and then whispered.

"This isn't the first time director Hired has used a similar approach."

"He first installed moving rails on the stair rails, shot an empty shot of going backwards down the stairs, and then went back to the studio, with the actor playing the detective sitting on a special seat, backed by a curtain, on the screen The footage just shot was shown, with the crew rocking the chair and the actor sitting on the seat making gestures to show the feeling of falling back.”

"At the same time, another set of cameras was set up to shoot this scene, which eventually resulted in the footage we see now."

Apparently, a full half a century ago, the means of filming were still relatively barren, but Hired still found a way to get the effect he wanted.

Even if you already know the production process behind the film industry, in essence, film is the art of dream-making, which means that everything is false; but when you really see this scene on the big screen, you can’t help but sigh How admirable is the whimsy in Xue De's mind.

What's more than Lu Qian?

The voice next to him also exclaimed, "Really or not? How did you know? This is too powerful, right?"

Boom boom.

The other party remained seated and moved over little by little to prevent their conversation from affecting other people. Although the beach cinema was disturbed by the sea breeze, the noise has actually become a part of the movie viewing, and the whispering discussion does not matter. But they still need to observe movie etiquette.

Lu Qian put his finger on his lips and made a gesture to lower his voice, "Shh, just because of a friend's curiosity."

In fact, Lu Qian's predecessor just simply liked movies, and he didn't have a clear understanding of the behind-the-scenes of film production. The reason why Lu Qian knew these behind-the-scenes stories was because of Lin Hanzhou.

Lin Hanzhou likes to watch old movies, and also likes to ask Lu Qian questions, including shot scheduling and composition, and of course the impact of editing points on narrative and perception.

It is precisely because of Lin Hanzhou's curiosity that Lu Qian read more information and learned more about the film without realizing it.

It is worth mentioning that after the "raid" became popular, the discussion about the realism and shock of the film has not stopped. After the film went offline, "World of Light and Shadow" wrote a special feature, which opened at the Weihai Film Festival. Published shortly before.

They mentioned a very important thing. At the moment when computer special effects have become omnipotent, filmmakers often hope to create more vast and magnificent effects, so they are out of reality and break the theory to shoot all kinds of incredible shots, but Correspondingly, the "pain" of the audience will also go offline, and they cannot experience the shocking effect in the picture with empathy.

Then, in order to shock the audience, the producers had to go even more outrageous.

In this way, it fell into an infinite loop, which is also the bottleneck encountered by superhero movies after the rapid development in the early stage.

However, "Assault" has returned to its down-to-earth position, starting with reality and bringing a new experience to the audience: the heroes on the screen will be tired, injured and on the verge of death, fist-to-meat fights will bleed, fracture and die, The grandeur of computer special effects is excluded and stimulates an instinctive response.

This is also the fundamental reason why the movie can break the shackles and fight a **** road——

The market misses this truth.

For Lu Qian, a large part of the realism of the "raid" comes from the experience of horror movies. Undoubtedly, Xi Xuede's film has inspired a lot of inspiration.

After more than a century of development, movies have already formed a complete system. The advanced and top-notch technology really allows directors to dream freely; but the core hidden in one "dream" after another has never changed. However, it is still about people themselves.

"The camera of this scene deliberately missed the picture of the mother, just to cover up the truth of the mystery?"

"Well, at the same time the director is also distracting the audience with the constant dialogue to avoid noticing that."

"Ha, but I really watched it too many times, and finally found it."

...

"I love the lighting in this scene."

"I think the whole depth of field and lighting is more interesting."

"Depth of field?"

...

Rushingly, in a few words, Lu Qian and the stranger beside him exchanged opinions, but Lu Qian was not used to this way of watching movies.

Because in the movie theater, keeping quiet is a basic etiquette, and it is a respect for the movie and the audience; only in the professional class of the film school, when the teacher needs to analyze the lens, he will keep talking and discussing.

Therefore, the conversation between the two was also very restrained. When the point was reached, the whispering sound was torn into countless pieces by the roaring sea breeze in the blink of an eye.

Despite this ~www.novelmt.com~ When the movie was over, Lu Qian was still a little embarrassed, so he stood up and apologized to the audience next to him. As a result, he turned around and found that the stranger beside him was doing the same. , bluntly apologize.

Judging from the reactions of the surrounding audience, they were completely unaffected. The first reaction was, "Why do you apologize?"

"Because the two of us, like megalomaniacs, were endlessly adding commentary tracks to the movie," the stranger said quickly.

Such self-pitying words made the people around them burst into laughter, and some even said half-jokingly, "If I knew earlier, I would have moved closer to listen to the lecture." Others laughed happily again.

Then, the stranger turned to look at Lu Qian, "I'm very sorry, you must be very troubled. You are self-righteous in the movie theater analyzing the shots. Such behavior is completely a true portrayal of megalomaniac."

The smile in Lu Qian's eyes also surged involuntarily, "So, are you accusing me? If so, I will accept it all. I swear, I can usually hide this arrogance better."

As soon as they came and went, the two of them both laughed.
