"Avatar" is the product of technological innovation, which has pushed commercial films to the stage of higher cost production and more magnificent pictures, and has also advanced special effects technology by a big step. At that time, it was the focus of the topic since its release, and the whole world was discussing the magic of James Cameron.
At the award level, the new film products promoted by money and technology are not the progress of the entire big movie industry. This may be an important factor that it did not win the favor of the Oscars in the end.
"Legend of the Galactic Heroes" also uses big special effects and is also invested heavily. Even in terms of the amount of capital, it is still several times that of "Avatar". At this time, no one will calculate a complete Galaxy headquarters left.
The real reason why Chen Hao's shooting is recognized is that he has always insisted on "reality", returning to the essence of the movie as much as possible, and using the machine in our hands to shoot those fascinating pictures with the lens. Even during this shooting, Chen Hao invited many old photographers to come out and let them carry the camera and rely on hand-steady to shoot the pictures in the film era of the 1980s and 1990s.
Many people were dismissive at first. What era is it now? Whether it is stability or picture clarity, we can do the best. What do we need to shoot with a machine? Drones can shoot.
When the picture is really shot, when those old photographers who have been gradually forgotten by history present their works and compare them with the most high-tech technology.
If it is just to shoot a documentary, then there is no doubt that the latter's technical advantages have laid an absolute advantage.
But if it is a propositional composition, especially to give the director what he wants, old is not necessarily outdated. Sometimes seeing someone's hands are so steady that they can follow the actor's action scenes and shoot a long shot, the picture is definitely art.
Some Chen Hao wants to pursue a realistic shooting effect, and he really needs these people to shoot what he wants. For a scene of gunfire and rain of bullets, for better effect, have you seen a photographer in his fifties carrying a camera and running with Chen Hao, shooting the pictures after the explosion?
The slight shaking that truly conforms to the life form looks more exciting than electronic equipment that is stable and motionless.
The entire "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" also uses a lot of retro shooting methods, especially in the outdoor scenes, which have some effects that make those green screen studios in Hollywood ashamed. More than a decade ago, when the audience saw the effects of those special effects blockbusters, they were shocked and completely stunned by the pictures. After watching them, they came out of the cinema and praised the pictures.
Today, more than a decade later, it seems that if there is nothing new or new creativity in it, the audience is no longer willing to buy it. Series movies such as superheroes require new technology and new feelings in each episode, otherwise even if the audience relies on feelings to buy it, it is destined to be impossible to keep giving face.
More high-tech and more special effects make the production cost of movies higher and higher. In "Transformers", you can't feel that there are actors performing, and the whole film is full of flying robots. It's okay to watch one, but if you watch too many, you will feel that this is not even a popcorn movie.
Movies still have to have their attractive features.
The increase in film costs will not increase much at the actor level abroad. The 20 million club has reached the top. At most, you can get a few million more to increase your fame. It will not be a huge pressure for the entire investment. If you are a famous actor and feel that you are worth more money, no problem, we recognize your value, but the salary is only so much. If you think you can do it, then bet and give you a share of the box office.
The cost of special effects is too high, and many movies cannot afford to make them. Except for some big IP movies, it is difficult for new movies to emerge. It is still a cost problem. You can't get so much investment, and the investors don't have much confidence in your script. You are like a superhero who can invest hundreds of millions of dollars at once. Can anyone invest so much money in a new theme? If you don't invest enough money and can't get the current mainstream blockbuster pictures, this will form a dead end.
The Oscars awarded this year's best film to "Legend of the Galactic Heroes", which is equivalent to affirming Chen Hao's role as the helmsman. A best director is not enough, only the best film is qualified. He has promoted the development of movies to a certain extent, and provided enough scripts for those new scripts, new directors and investment departments, and found a new direction.
You can also make a super special effects blockbuster that shocks all the audience.
All of this has a blueprint and a direction to learn.
Giving it the best film today is to tell the world that this direction is feasible. Chen Hao's film is not only the world's No. 1 box office in film history, it also leaves a small piece of pure land for the world film industry. Those things that were once considered outdated have ushered in another spring.
Chen Hao stood in front of the microphone, in the middle of the stage, facing everyone on the scene, facing the billions of viewers around the world transmitted by the camera, and shook the trophy in his hand vigorously: "I will always come, try my best, do what I should do, and don't let everyone down."
"Believe me, don't hate me, wait for me!"
Believe that I will make more movies, don't hate me for making better movies, wait for me to come back with the best movies.
Nine words, amid the applause of the audience, this year's Oscars ended with his nine-word declaration. The true feelings shown at the last moment also touched many people, and the ambitions shown in those nine words also ignited many people. Spielberg admitted in a subsequent interview that his creative feeling was ignited by Chen Hao. He was ready to take out a script that he had prepared for a long time. If he looked back and forth, the timing of filming might never be ripe. He set up a crew to expose all problems during filming and really solve problems during filming. Such a movie will have more personal charm, but with it, the risks increase exponentially.
Young people are not afraid, so what are we old men afraid of? At the end of our careers, don’t we dare to do something that we are not sure of?
Chen Hao was not idle either. In an interview that night, he also frankly stated his filming plan. In addition to several films that have been planned, he will also make an action movie with an investment cost of less than 100 million yuan. All action scenes will be completed independently by himself, and all action scenes will not be shot or edited. All in one shot. I want to be crazier than Bruce Lee back then, and I want to ignite the action movies of the entire new century.
I will use the simplest shooting method to shoot the most popular movies.
If there are still some people who doubt this declaration, the news revealed by several major insurance companies in the world a few days later will really shock the world.
PS: I wish you all good health and good fortune in 2019 in advance. Believe me, wait for me, I will be better next year!
