Chapter 1,264: Can’t Be Like Others

"Xiao Qiu, let's disperse first. We won't shoot today. Let's eat and rest." Chen Hao didn't realize that his state had affected the whole scene. He just focused more on the footage in front of him. It was only when he heard Qiu Yu's footsteps that he remembered to say a few words to let everyone disperse. He needed to think about where the problem with the footage was.

Qiu Yu didn't dare to say much. He responded and signaled that everyone could rest. The atmosphere of the whole scene and even the whole crew was frozen at this moment. Qiu Yu found that once it was time to shoot, he had no way to understand the boss. The boss on weekdays was a very easy-going person who had no temper with his own people. Only at work, he would become unpredictable, and you didn't dare to easily figure out his emotions. The only thing you could do was to follow orders.

Hundreds of people on the entire shooting site were silent when evacuating, and they were also cautious when moving equipment. No one wanted to touch this bad luck.

The main monitor Chen Hao got this time was placed on a van modified from a box truck, so he could work more conveniently and he didn't have to move back and forth. Sometimes he could use the time to move back and forth to think about how to shoot. As a director, he often relies on a flash of inspiration. Once you are in the process of expanding your thinking, you don't want to move. To put it another way, if you are thinking but have to change the venue, it is very likely that a random interruption will disconnect your thinking. What you were about to think of just now may have been missed, and you can't remember it at all.

The equipment was placed on the van, and a chair was specially fixed on the car for him. If he didn't talk and think about things, the car would move over there, and it had nothing to do with him. But that was usually the case. In today's atmosphere, the car didn't dare to move, and Qiu Yu didn't dare to let the driver drive back to the "office building" used by the crew.

In the huge area of ​​the Galaxy headquarters, there are many "office buildings" with different appearances. They are all two- or three-story buildings with very technological shapes attached to the outside, making them buildings that can be scanned by the camera during filming.

The interior is a large warehouse space. The entire first floor is open, and the second floor has a separate room that can be used as a warehouse. It can also be decorated anytime and anywhere to become a location for interior shooting. For example, in the open area on the first floor, you can build a few scenes of rooms in the house, and you can directly shoot some literary scenes here.

A more important function is to use it for the crew and for some separate projects of the company. There is no need to divide the area for you in the office building. It is just here. Any building is given to you. You can do whatever you want when you go in, whether it is an office meeting room, an indoor scene, or the core area of ​​a project. If the place is large enough, you can do whatever you want.

Yesterday, we specially arranged the route by car. We set out from the crew office building in the morning. The car drove out directly from the first floor. We should drive back directly tonight. From Qiu Yu to the crew members to the driver, no one dared to move around. They secretly watched Chen Hao. Every minute and every second was like torture. They had a premonition that the longer the time dragged on, it would be like the accumulation of dark clouds in the sky. When the time came, a big one would come out, and no one could bear it.

There was no problem with the picture, and the light was also very good.

The actors did not make any mistakes, and the action scenes were up to standard.

It seemed that everything was perfect, but Chen Hao just felt uncomfortable watching it. There was something that made him feel that the shooting was not enough. From time to time, he had to make up some pictures in his mind, and the feeling of the pictures was not good. There was also a feeling of insufficiency.

The sixth sense of human beings is very accurate when it is accurate. Chen Hao confirmed several times that there was no problem with the shooting, but why did he have a similar feeling, including the post-production special effects that he made up in his mind. Where is it?

Everyone gets stuck in a dead end. He felt that he was not being too stubborn. It was not that he had to strive for perfection until a hair was not beautiful in the camera. It was definitely a feeling that there was something wrong. It was not that this part was not shot well.

A gust of cool wind blew by, waking him up from his deep thoughts. He looked up in confusion, wondering why he was still here.

"Xiao Qiu, why didn't you go back!"

"Oh, okay, I'll go back right away." Qiu Yu responded and immediately signaled the driver to drive. Being an assistant is actually very difficult. You need to have good enough ability and good enough vision, and you also need to know when to say what. This is definitely not the time for you to explain. The most correct thing to do is to respond immediately. Don't feel wronged. It is obviously you who didn't say anything, so how dare we move? If you have similar thoughts, then you are destined to be unable to be an assistant or a close follower for others.

The car started, and Chen Hao subconsciously raised his eyes to look into the distance. Just this one look, like an electric shock, made him stand there. The uncomfortable place he felt before seemed to be cleared up all of a sudden, and he suddenly became enlightened.

"Stop!"

After shouting "Stop!", Qiu Yu, who was also standing in the box, quickly signaled the driver to stop. The car driven by Kang Yan and Chen Gang, who were following behind, also stopped. Those who had been following him for a long time were fine and had calm expressions. The crew members who had just started filming with him frowned secretly. What happened? Was there a problem?

Chen Hao got up from his chair, jumped out of the car, and looked at the sky in the distance.

It was the time when day and night alternated. The sun had just set. A crescent moon was not bright in the sky, and there were faint stars. The night gradually enveloped the hills in the distance, and they gradually became blurred in sight. A hill also lost its beauty during the day, and only the grayness covered by the night remained.

The uncomfortable feeling was caught at once, and the required flash of inspiration was just like this. He sat in the box, and both sides were open. When the car moved, he looked up and glanced, and his sight happened to see the roof position. From the angle where he was sitting, he just saw the intersection of the interior roof of the car and the sky.

The two had no connection at all, but it happened to be the position where Chen Hao was sitting. When he looked over, the two had a connection.

Suddenly, the change in sight brought about a change in visual experience. When Chen Hao felt that there was a problem during the filming, it was still daytime, but at this moment, the sky had darkened. This change brought him the flash of inspiration he needed most.

Then, he got off the car to see the changes in the sky and the hills and hills in the distance that had darkened and could not be seen clearly. The scenery was completely different from that seen during the day.

All of a sudden, he felt uncomfortable with the two images in his imagination and in reality, and found the root cause. No wonder he felt uncomfortable, that's why.

From the first day of the crew's establishment, Chen Hao wanted to shoot a big production. Although he took the traditional science fiction route, he hoped that he would be different from ordinary people and could shoot a different feeling.

The uncomfortable feeling came from being the same as others.

The sky and the forest were the same. These backgrounds outside the mission battle performance were the same as the pictures we saw in reality, and these were exactly the root of the problem.

Chen Hao had previously imagined the pictures of computer special effects editing in the later stage, but he still subconsciously imagined the state of our current starry sky.

The real scenes shot before were part of the real scenes that were deliberately built, but they did not run away from the scope and combat area that our conventional cognition of special forces operations can cover.

The first big scene shot at the beginning of the show was the landing operation led by Chen Hao's team. They landed on a planet with life civilization and fought with some human-like ruling creatures here.

Some of the creatures in combat are dressed up as humans and props, and some rely on computer synthesis. All Chen Hao's previous discomfort came from this.

The starry sky he photographed is the starry sky of the earth, and the mountains and hills he photographed are the structures familiar to everyone on the earth. Of course, no one knows what other planets look like. What do we want when shooting movies? What we want is to let the audience enjoy an audio-visual feast, to bring more stimulation and appreciation to the audience visually, that is what he wants to do, and that is what he can do differently.

A very simple change of thinking.

When shooting the starry sky, can there be two moons, can the sky be different from that on our earth, which can exceed the audience's imagination and surprise them, and can also stand within the scope of shooting technology that we can control?

When shooting battle scenes, why are the stones like that, why are the hills and hills exactly the same as on the earth, and can't the mountains on other planets be tall and majestic? Or on that planet, there may be no mountains or trees, and naturally grow a different kind of creature, is it okay?

A hundred things can be done with one thing. After clearing the blockage in your mind, you can watch the previously filmed materials again. You don’t need to worry about the special effects added later, but if you look at the various action scenes of the actors in the picture as a whole, minus the sense of technology brought by the equipment, who would know that you are shooting a big-budget science fiction film if you take this clip out alone?

“Let’s go back and have dinner. Shooting will start at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning, and there will be a meeting at 4 o’clock in the afternoon. All screenwriters and main creative staff involved in the production are required to attend.”

It has always been said that the people below will run around for a word from the superiors. It is also thanks to Qiu Yu’s long time with him that he knows that geniuses generally have some unique weird tempers and weird behaviors. This is still normal. If they really want to hold a meeting tonight, will you cadres come?

Chen Hao was in a very good mood. When he arrived at the cafeteria, his mind was full of things to do with filming. In everyone's eyes, he quickly filled a large plate of food, ate it with big mouthfuls, and left quickly. He immediately summoned two computer experts in post-production special effects and told them his idea. Soon he got the first version of the idea confirmed. Very rough computer special effects were added with different effects, and then he watched the filmed materials, from uncomfortable to comfortable. He didn't know about other directors, but for him, the approval of this idea was enough to make him excitedly punch the air.
