My movie scared the global audience to tears

"A Quiet Place" is a work with an amazing setting. It creates a monster that is extremely sensitive to sound, so that the entire movie is almost silent in the early stages.

This is a very interesting setting, because its theoretical core is to deprive the character of part of his perception, so that the audience can have a sense of immersion, so that like the character, they have to hold their breath, thereby further increasing the sense of immersion.

Many horror movies use many scary background sounds and music elements to create a scary atmosphere.

But this movie goes in the opposite direction. Not only does the characters save words like gold, but even the background sounds are sparing, creating a tighter, more advanced horror and depressive effect.

The more important reason why Song Qi chose Jiang Hai to film "A Quiet Place" was to promote the Shimen City Zombie Theme Park, because the new gameplay he designed for the Zombie Theme Park is sensory deprivation.

As he said before, Shimen City is not suitable for a theme park because the local escape room stores have become ecological and the entire city has become a large theme park.

Under such circumstances, building a new theme park is undoubtedly a thankless task.

Even if a theme park is built, the most likely scenario is that a siphon effect will occur. The theme park will rely on a purer, more professional, and more interesting model to attract a large number of tourists, and the profits of other stores will decrease.

In order to increase profits, each store will start to find ways to attract tourists and enter the involution mode.

This is obviously a very unhealthy ecological model, just like when corrupt officials appear in one place, one gets fatter and the rest loses weight.

The only way to solve the problem of involution is to innovate and seek change.

Therefore, in order to solve this problem, Song Qi designed a new gameplay for the Shimen City Zombie Theme Park, which is sensory deprivation.

He designed two sensory deprivation methods, one is sound deprivation and the other is visual deprivation.

The so-called sound deprivation is the use of technical means to allow tourists to enter silent mode and play games.

For example, a decibel meter is placed on tourists to monitor the sound produced by tourists. When the sound exceeds a certain decibel, an alarm will be triggered and the tourists will be eliminated.

This kind of gameplay can set up a large venue, let tourists wear decibel meters to go in and complete tasks, and then the staff will play monsters and wander around the venue.

In this way, you can see the tourists who should have been screaming and running away in other places, like quails, pursed their lips, held their breath, and tiptoed around the venue. The scene was still very...

Interesting.

The so-called visual deprivation is even simpler, just blindfold the tourists.

Song Qi also arranged a movie for this game mode to promote it.

That movie is called "Bindfold Your Eyes", and the model is similar to "A Quiet Place". It also sets up a special monster, similar to Cthulhu, who will go crazy and commit suicide if he sees it.

die.

The same is true for this visual deprivation game mode, which allows tourists to blindfold their eyes and enter the venue to play, and monsters can be equipped with monitoring and eye-catching equipment to determine whether tourists have seen the monster.

The feeling of visual deprivation can be more exciting and more difficult than sound deprivation.

Although people with hearing impairment will have their lives affected, they can still maintain a basic normal life.

However, people with visual impairments have a much greater impact on their lives, making it basically difficult to maintain a normal life.

Ordinary people will worry about falling and falling even if they just take a few steps with their eyes closed. You can imagine the fear that blind people live in.

Therefore, the gameplay of this mode will definitely reduce the difficulty in the actual design, such as asking tourists to wear gauze eye masks that can see the image of the model lake, or setting rules such that if they stare at the monster for more than two seconds, they will be out of the game, etc.

But that's all a story for another day. What he has to do now is to film "A Quiet Place" first.

After reading the script of "A Quiet Place", Jiang Hai fell in love with it immediately.

"This book is so to my liking! It's like it was tailor-made for me!"

These are his original words.

Jiang Hai doesn't like the grand themes of space, galaxies, civilization, and war. Instead, stories that show ordinary people's survival and family emotional struggles will interest him more.

After preliminary location scouting, Jiang Hai and Song Qi actually found a suitable shooting location in the scenic area in the northern suburbs of Beijing.

In this way, Zhen Zhen no longer has to follow them everywhere, and they can even guarantee that they can go home after filming every day.

So, in early May, filming of "A Quiet Place" officially started.

There are not many special effects scenes in this movie, and the scenes are mainly concentrated on a few actors.

Especially the mother played by An Qin is definitely the core of the movie's emotional explosion, and the requirements for her acting skills are also the highest.

In the following time, Song Qi and An Qin devoted themselves to intense yet relaxed shooting.

The reason why it is tense yet relaxed is because the shooting process is relatively easy. I basically shoot for half a day and then call it a day.

The reason for the tension is that Song Qi and An Qin spend a lot of time on the road every day, and it takes six hours just to go back and forth by car.

So Song Qi simply bought a medium-sized RV to catch up on his sleep on the road.

But due to irregular work and rest schedules every day, he and An Qin were still tired and exhausted.

However, this just fits the character's status, which is actually an unexpected surprise.

In this way, after three months of shooting, the entire movie was finally completed.

Jiang Hai plans to release this movie on November 1.

It’s not that he’s afraid of being on the Spring Festival block, it’s just that the National Day Golden Week is a popular period for science fiction movies, a bit like the mid-year blockbuster for horror movies.

It was after Jiang Huai came out of the eleventh slot that he became famous. Jiang Hai chose this schedule because he obviously wanted to prove himself.

But the time has come to early August, and if you want to release it in the eleventh time, you have to hurry up.

Special effects are a minor issue. There are not many special effects shots anyway. With Miracle Studio, it can be done in minutes.

The editing was also easy to handle. Jiang Hai and Song Qi worked closely together and successfully completed the film in early September.

Soon, the review results came out. The film was approved for broadcast, but the rating given was a limit of 15.

This is a very high rating, just one step short of reaching adult level.

However, considering some of the plots and scenes in the movie, it is understandable that it was rated Rated 15.

The promotion of the movie only started on the day the movie was finalized. The day the promotional information was released, it caused quite a stir on the Internet.

The promotional information was officially released from Jiang Hai's personal account and JAC Studio.

Originally, most netizens were not very interested in Jiang Hai's new movies. Compared with Jiang Huai's, Jiang Hai's movies can be distinguished by clouds and mud.

But after the movie's promotional poster appeared, netizens were immediately shocked.

The male and female protagonists in the poster are actually Song Qi and An Qin!
