China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 231 New Aesthetics of Violence

"Director Chen, you are very knowledgeable about martial arts movements." Liang Guohan said to Chen Jingxing with some surprise when he looked at the concept drawings and shot scripts.

Chen Jingxing smiled and shook his head and said: "I also like to watch many classic martial arts movies and action movies in the past, but I don't have any action design skills. It's just a visual concept of the fighting style of this movie. To really design the action, you have to rely on

You are old."

In fact, it is Chen Jingxing's re-enactment of some classic action scenes in the original movie. It is equivalent to a concept drawing of an action style. Of course, he does not intend to copy the specific action design. In his previous life, the action director of "The Matrix" was Wu Zhidao.

, but there is no shortage of good martial arts design talents in China, and Liang Jiaban is also a top martial arts team.

Liang Guohan was very curious about the famous young director in front of him. In fact, after receiving the invitation from DreamWorks, the price had not yet been negotiated. He couldn't wait to agree. The strange movie described by Chen Jingxing really aroused his curiosity.

Heart.

"So you want a hodgepodge?"

"That's right!" Chen Jingxing described with some excitement: "The protagonist can be directly instilled with all martial arts knowledge in the matrix, so the plot itself is a very interesting drama stage. We can take this opportunity to show a lot of

It is a kind of genre and kung fu, and can achieve an organic combination of traditional and modern and even surreal elements. It is a new packaging of the element of kung fu.

This is something that is difficult to see in other film and television works, and it will comprehensively upgrade the tension of kung fu expression, and the audience will also get a new experience of kung fu as an element on the big screen that they have never had before."

Chen Jingxing's positioning of the martial arts style of "The Matrix" is an organic combination of reality and surreality.

The reality is that he hopes that the action design of "The Matrix" can be disassembled, has logic, has moves, and can reflect the obvious aesthetic characteristics of Chinese Kung Fu, so he invited Liang Jiaban.

The surreal part is to match faster speed, more powerful force, and more violent blow.

Chen Jingxing, on the other hand, wants a combination of Chinese kung fu and the fighting style of "Dragon Ball". He wants action moves that are extremely entertaining, and he also wants the visual impact of power, speed and destructive power.

The fighting style of superhero movies in this world is popular with King Baquan. The movements of skilled and fleshy heroes are closer to fighting skills. Of course, they are also very handsome. They also have good skills and a sense of physical punches, but they are different from Chinese Kung Fu.

The difference is huge, and of course there are lessons for Kung Fu.

After listening to Chen Jingxing's brand-new violent aesthetic packaging of Chinese Kung Fu, Liang Guohan was still a little hesitant despite being shocked: "Martial arts and Superman...a hyper-realistic comprehensive enhancement of Kung Fu...can everyone really accept this style?"

As a lifelong martial arts fan, Liang Guohan welcomes any attempt to repackage kung fu or action scenes into popular elements and bring them to the market. This is also the main reason why he readily agreed to Chen Jingxing's invitation, but for Chen Jingxing

He still lacks imagination in the depiction, after all, most of his martial arts coaching work is in martial arts fantasy works.

In fact, he believes that the original version of "The Matrix" is flawed in this regard, or can be done better. The original version of "The Matrix" does not have enough impact. Although the action design is very good, it still gives people a sense of embroidery.

Of course, this is a movie from the end of the last century, and the visual effects technology is not very developed yet.

Chen Jingxing believes that the combination of the fighting style of "Dragon Ball" and Chinese Kung Fu can give birth to a violent aesthetic with real visual impact. In addition, he plans to use 3D cameras to shoot the entire process, with the dual blessing of 3D effects and the current level of visual effects.

He is confident that the audience will be shocked by the power and beauty of Chinese Kung Fu on the big screen again.

Although Liang Guohan has passed his 60s, his mentality is not conservative and he has no fundamentalist insistence on Kung Fu. In fact, any traditional culture or traditional skills that want to be widely recognized by young people in the new Internet era must be repackaged or even certain.

Any degree of pruning and distortion is indispensable. If you adhere to fundamentalism and insist on the "original flavor", the final result will be that the "authentic flavor" will be lost.

Let everyone realize that visual spectacles are not only earth-shattering, but also can present the impact of visual spectacles with the support of high-level visual effects and new aesthetic concepts.

Chen Jingxing seems confident about this: "In fact, doesn't the kung fu in martial arts works also have surreal elements? Qinggong is the biggest artistic surreal treatment, but the kung fu in martial arts themes integrates the traditional Chinese culture's concepts of ethereal, graceful, romantic and even oriental

Appreciation of unique soft aesthetics.

Especially after the first part, the protagonist has awakened his super powers in the matrix, which is basically equivalent to Superman in the matrix. The only one who can pose a threat to him is the pursuer who has also awakened to confront him head-on. The fight between the two

It's the showdown between Superman and Superman. The action scenes in the original movie are certainly exciting, but the impact is still far from enough.

Kung Fu, as a banner of Chinese culture, had a very glorious moment, but the craze for Kung Fu has long subsided in the world. Even in China, martial arts or fantasy works are becoming more and more perfunctory about action and Kung Fu, because the focus of the audience has been

This is no longer the case. The characters and plot are what the audience values ​​most. As for the action scenes, they are processed artistically and the whole slow motion process is fooled.

The surreal style that Chen Jingxing wants is somewhat similar to the fighting style of "Dragon Ball", a perfect combination of speed, power, sense of impact and destructive power. In the previous life, "Superman: Man of Steel" was closer to the style that Chen Jingxing wanted.

The kung fu elements of modern themes are integrated into the elements of modern martial arts, which enhances practicality while taking into account aesthetic appreciation.

The kung fu in "The Matrix" is futuristic and sci-fi kung fu, which greatly increases the speed, power, impact and destructive power. This violent aesthetic style is definitely a brand new version for the audience. Believe me, Liang

Old, using 3D technology to show it on the big screen will definitely have an explosive impact, and "The Matrix" will definitely be a milestone in kung fu movies in the future."

Liang Guohan then looked at the conceptual design drawings provided by Chen Jingxing for his reference in designing martial arts action styles, and sighed: "You young people should still dare to think and do it. If it is what you say, this "Matrix" can rekindle the

A wave of kung fu craze, me and my old friends all have to thank you."

Kung Fu fever?

Chen Jingxing shook his head slightly in his heart. The spectacle of "action scenes" is just one of the aspects of "The Matrix" that shocks the audience. Maybe times are different and the world is different, but Chen Jingxing is confident that even in this dimension, "The Matrix" will definitely transcend

It is a sci-fi work of the era that is much bigger in a sense than the four films he has made before.
