I Just Want to Copy Books in Peace

Hiding in Southeast Asia for the past few days to shoot, Du Caige was able to temporarily not face the indiscriminate bombardment of the media, and was able to steal a moment of leisure.

Although there are still reporters who are familiar with him calling him and wanting to do a phone interview, Du Caige said that he was busy with filming and had no free time to chat, so he would not be interviewed for the time being.

The incident of Xin Wan, at present, seems to have a considerable negative impact on the crew.

Anyway, when she had an accident, she was an actor in the "Wulin" crew.

This will also give the audience a bad impression of "Wulin".

However, the new media department of Dream Dream Interactive Entertainment will naturally work hard to try to eliminate adverse effects.

Although the investment in this movie has been withdrawn by Dream Dream Entertainment, Du Caige is also a major shareholder.

However, these negative effects cannot be eliminated in a short period of time.

What is even more criticized is that when Shu Yihuan started filming "Wudang" before, the director and the four main actors have all left the crew now.

How strong the original creative team was!

There is Shu Yihuan, a major director who can rank among the top five contemporary domestic directors no matter how he ranks.

There are two movie stars and two movie queens.

The lineup is so strong!

Therefore, everyone has great expectations for "Wudang", thinking that it may be a masterpiece that can be remembered in film and television.

However, after the actual shooting, the crew continued to expose negative news.

For a while it was a conflict between the director and the assistant director, and for a while it was a funding issue.

Then the creators left one by one.

It was Shu Yihuan who first said that he left because of physical reasons.

Then Liu Chi didn't want to cooperate with Du Caige and chose to leave, and then Qu Hong also followed Shu Yihuan's new film.

Then a few days ago, Luo Hengzuo withdrew because he couldn't get the male lead.

Now that Xin Wan has an accident again, it can be said that her acting career is basically over.

In the future, it will be a bad actor, and it is unlikely that there will be a chance to turn over.

In the eyes of outsiders, this crew is really troubled!

At present, the entire creative team has been replaced.

Take a look at the current creative team.

The heroine Xu Qingya, the second female lead is temporarily vacant.

Actors Liu Pengfei and Jiang Youxi.

At least in terms of reputation, it is not a star and a half worse than the original.

Is this movie really worth going to the cinema? Many viewers are naturally skeptical.

At first, everyone was optimistic about "Wudang", but now they are more optimistic about "Wulin".

Even if they don't say it, they still feel that Hemingway's investment of hundreds of millions is going to be wasted.

Of course, Hemingway was rich, and it was nothing to lose a few hundred million.

Of course Du Caige didn't see it that way.

Who said that this movie will lose money?

Who said that Xu Qingya must be inferior to Liu Chi?

The actors under his opponent still have confidence. Eh, except for Liu Pengfei.

Liu Pengfei is still in retreat, and he doesn't know if this guy can play well.

As for the original role of Xin Wan, Yan Yuanyi had to go back to China and choose an actor.

If the movie really can't catch up with the summer season, then there's no way.

In short, we still have to keep improving and make a good movie, and we can't put the cart before the horse just to catch up with the schedule.

...

In a seaside manor, the crew is busy working.

Du Caige was repeatedly checking the settings of several cameras and constantly making fine adjustments.

Action guides Su Yun and Zhao Zhekun took the time to explain to Jiang Youxi and Xu Qingya, kicking their legs and raising their hands from time to time to demonstrate.

Although the crew was busy, it was orderly.

In fact, when Xin Wan's incident was just exposed, the crew panicked.

At that time, the crew had just arrived in Southeast Asia and had not yet started filming, when they heard the news, it was a bolt from the blue.

Because this event is destined to cast a thick shadow over the prospects of the movie.

Everyone is stressed, confused, worried, anxious.

However, Du Caige immediately took measures to compress the shooting time. Originally scheduled for a 7-day shooting task, he requested that the shooting be completed within 4 days.

This made everyone in the crew so busy that they didn't have time to think about it.

The effect is very good, but the heart is calmed down.

Everything was ready, the actors were in place, and after returning to the position and movement at the end of the previous shot, Du Caige shouted, "Start!"

Jiang Youxi and Xu Qingya immediately fought.

In this section, Huo Linger asks Wang Chao for advice in the plot. Try to restore the kung fu used by Feng Yuxiu when he killed people, in order to speculate the identity of Feng Yuxiu.

The action design of this section is also one of the most thoughtful actions by the screenwriters, Zhao Zhekun and Su Yunhua.

For the other fights, as long as the designs are good-looking and the fights are exciting.

And this part of the fight has a clear purpose, and it must match the lines.

For example, the screenwriter wrote, Wang Chao said, "This move 'to attract the sparrow's tail', the way to exert force is Wudang. As for which faction Wudang is, it remains to be discussed. I think it should be the Songxi School or the Yisong School. .Although the other factions also have this secret technique, but there are subtle differences in the way of exertion."

So when Zhao Zhekun and Su Yun are doing action design, they can't design randomly, they must design a trick to attract sparrow tails.

But it can't be the same as the sparrow's tail that everyone sees at ordinary times, so it won't show the cleverness of this secret technique.

They took great pains to design this action.

Take a few days to design a few short movements.

The actual shooting, but ten seconds.

"stop!"

Du Caige looked at the monitor intently.

In this scene, he arranged 5 cameras.

There are 2 fixed cameras, one orbital mobile camera, and two handheld cameras.

Shoot this scene from different positions and angles, and finally cut out the best visual effects through editing.

In the eyes of others, this is just a piece of embroidered legs, and the effect is very ordinary.

But in his mind, the appearance of a film can already emerge.

After watching it several times, Du Caige announced: "This one is good, let's keep one first. Let's adjust the camera position and take another shot to see the effect."

Naturally, no one can disagree.

When shooting action movies, the choice of camera position is very important. The same fight, shot from different angles, the effect is completely different.

Take the simplest example.

Early kung fu films, such as Bruce Lee's version of "Jingwumen", were shot with wide-angle lenses, and the scenes looked huge.

During Bruce Lee's challenge to the Hongkou Dojo, the Japanese stood in a circle on the outside, constantly moving and jumping around, like a pen.

Then they rushed up one by one, and were knocked out by Bruce Lee with one punch and one leg.

The audience has questions, why do they rush up one by one and use this fueling tactic instead of swarming?

When the camera is given to Bruce Lee, it can be clearly seen that the rest of the Japanese are standing on the periphery and become the background board.

Are these Japanese idiots? Don't know how to swarm?

of course not.

It was the limitations of the shooting skills and shooting concepts at that time. If there were too many people involved in a fight, it would be easy to have problems with cooperation.

And if one person has a problem, faster or slower, it will cause the entire lens to be scrapped.

If you shoot a group of people swarming up, that shot may not be shot well for many days.

So I had to do it as a last resort, let most of the little guys act as background boards and deliver dishes one by one.

However, after the shooting skills improved, there were different ways to deal with this kind of multi-person fight.

For example, in Cheng Long's films, sometimes there are more than a dozen villains chasing the protagonist.

Such shots are handled in an orderly manner, busy but not chaotic, exciting and exciting.

How is it handled in Cheng Long's film?

It is through the ingenious setup of the camera that only the protagonist and one or two villains are shown in the camera at the same time.

After the protagonist Cheng Long defeated these two villains, one or two other villains appeared from the edge of the camera.

At this time, I switched to another shot of the camera to show this new fight.

And the previous villain, and other villains who are ready to enter, they are outside the lens of this camera.

The effect of the final editing is that the perspective is constantly changing, Cheng Long is constantly moving, running, and constantly defeating the villain.

Here, two people were knocked down from the front, and then two people attacked from behind at the same time. He immediately turned around and kicked them down, and three people attacked from the side... The whole scene was very tight, and the rhythm was very tense, fast, and intense.

This is to show the wonderful fighting process by skillfully setting up the camera positions and then subtly editing the pictures taken by different camera positions.
