Chapter 721

The shots were not beautiful enough. In many places, the photographer couldn’t keep up with the actors, lost focus, blurred, and even made the actors run out of the frame. This is one of the reflections.

If you want to shoot that kind of unrestrained and unrestrained action, you have to go through the scene all over the scene, and you must not be like other martial arts movies, where every movement is dismantled, or the various shots are messed up. Cut everything through, and show the power of the characters through the combination of shots.

The feeling brought to the audience by real shooting and real filming on the spot is definitely not what post-editing can achieve!

And fighting must be fast and smooth!

But as long as you get up quickly, there will be extremely high demands on the photographer's photography skills and reaction speed-even though it must have been communicated in advance, even though it is a choreographed action design, the photographer must have foreseen the next scene in advance. After all the movements are done, and the positions are buried, it still won't work.

I am definitely not suitable to play Huang Feihong, the leading actor in this movie, this is the second reflection!

The main reason is that the height difference!

Li Qian himself is 1.86 meters tall, but most of the actors who can participate in martial arts scenes are tall at 1.75 meters, and 1.7 meters or even shorter is normal—don’t laugh , The more people who practice martial arts from an early age, the stronger their muscles and bones. Although it is said that people who practice martial arts are poor and rich in martial arts, people who practice martial arts are especially good at eating. Most of them are shorter in stature.

What's more, in fact, in the current era, adult men over the age of twenty-five are in their early 1.7 meters, which is the normal height of ordinary people. With the progress of society and the great improvement of dietary conditions, their height development is no longer comparable to that of the generation ten years ago! Everyone looks crazy, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, they are already 1.71 meters and 8 meters!

Therefore, a person who is 1.86 meters is fighting with a group of people who are about 1.7 meters in size. Just like in the scene just now, he quickly backed up and used his shoulder to remove the half-strength knife from the opponent. The idea is very good. Well, it will be very handsome when reflected in the camera, but I am 1.8 meters, and Guo Ziming is a little more than 1.7 meters. If you look closely at this shot, you will notice a little weirdness!

His shoulders were almost as high as his head!

This is just a sparring scene. Once there are more ensemble actors involved, the feeling of a tall man fighting several short men will become more obvious, and it will become more inconsistent when it is reflected in the camera!

Even if it is possible to adjust the camera angle and use photography skills to solve this sense of incongruity, on the whole, this solution loses more points, and it can be regarded as a solution that is not worth the candle.

Of course, the second reason is actually very important, because I am too tall, so some ground movements may be practiced, and you can also sway them casually, which is quite handsome, but when it involves more fighting situations , being tall, it became a short board instead-not flexible enough!

To put it bluntly, martial arts performances in film and television are still two different concepts from real battles in reality!

In fact, if you push back what happened in another time and space, you will also find that those superstars who eventually became stars are really not too tall!

Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Sammo Hung, Fan Shaohuang, Donnie Yen, Wu Jing, etc.

This is definitely not accidental, but the necessity of adapting to the performance needs!

1.8 meters is already the limit, and it must not be exceeded!

Between 1.65 and 1.75 meters, it's just right!

Short, flexible, and handsome!

If there is that kind of star with big arms and round waist, don't worry, it must be those American tough guys in Hollywood movies! They are all lumpy, and they look very strong at first glance!

In China, however, in Eastern martial arts aesthetics and personal combat, what is pursued is not an absolute sense of power, but the requirements for skill, speed, and sensitivity are more important!

Moreover, there is another point that has to be considered, and that is the problem of supporting the play with other actors.

I think back when Jet Li was filming, he often needed to use a special camera angle to shoot, and if it was a kiss scene, he might even need to put something under his feet, the purpose was to make him look not too short, so that he would not be damaged by his height. This is a kind of heroic image, but looking at it now, if there are more figures of about 1.73 meters in a movie, then there will be a person who is 1.86 meters and just look at the screen, it will be against the sense of harmony!

There is also the issue of the age of history. In China at that time a hundred years ago, the average nutritional level of the entire society was really difficult to produce a person who was 1.86 meters...

Well, in the next cast selection, this must be a point that needs extra attention, that is, the height ratio of characters in plays such as Huang Feihong and Liang Kuan should be roughly maintained at a similar level.

So... Based on the above, this short test shoot has yielded a lot.

First, Guo Ziming is smart enough and has enough comprehension ability. He is basically on the road. Next, he should be trustworthy; Thirdly, before the shooting of the film, the photographers are required to exercise collectively for at least two to three weeks, because in the next shooting, the actors have to climb up and down, which is very hard, and the photographers also have to work hard. You have to climb up and down to shoot. If you don't have good physical strength, you probably won't be able to make it!

…………

Although there were many problems in the trial shooting this time, after the shooting and the playback, Li Qian still seemed very excited—even if Guo Ziming started to find the feeling, it was simply that he found the next step before starting work. It is already a very happy thing to avoid problems that are inevitable but have not attracted enough attention before.

It is better to find out early, face it early, and find a way to solve it early than to sharpen the gun when the problem comes to an end!

After discussing with Guo Ziming for a few words, Li Qian discussed with Fu Xuelong and Song Yupin, the two photographers, about the position and follow-up during the shooting. How can we capture the wonderful fights of the actors during the filming process, make them well, and make them beautiful!

And Lu Lingxi and Sun Yuting also participated at this time. They are all professional, and soon they chatted about how to capture the shots in a fast-moving scene, and the chat was about you. Come and go, what a joy!

When this kind of professional issue was involved, Guo Ziming, of course, couldn't talk to him, so he simply hid aside, and after a while, he even walked to the set of tables and chairs placed in the open air, and walked back and forth in circles!

In fact, since yesterday, he has always felt that there is a fire in his heart. The feeling of "I seem to understand something" and "I will understand it soon" has been burning in his mind and heart. , Burning so much that he forgot to sleep and eat, apart from smacking Li Qian's demonstrations and explanations over and over again, he hardly had the energy to do anything!

Then, when he finally fumbled and worked out the set of sparring moves just now, especially when the three cameras were set up there, he felt as if a flash of light flashed in his mind. A flash of lightning passed - even though he played the uncool one, when Li Qian repelled his attacks time and time again accurately and smartly, when he himself ran over and saw the three cameras capturing All of a sudden, he felt his brain really exploded from the shots and pictures he saw!

Yes, this is it!

That's the feeling, that's the style!

So, when there was a lot of discussion about how photographers should chase after shots, he walked up to the Eight Immortals table alone, and walked around the table round and round. Walking, looking back and forth between the table and the four benches, at that moment, a sudden enlightenment came, and countless fighting moves that had been extremely proficient before, at this moment, quickly surrounded this place. The table unfolds!

Tables, stools, possible knives, guns, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks!

Oh, yes, there are umbrellas, and fists!

Countless pictures, countless people walking, stopping, and fighting in front of this table-scene after scene, this moment just kept flashing back in his mind!

Of course, at the beginning, their fighting movements seemed a little stiff, and there were even many old routines of hard bridge and hard horse, but soon, Guo Ziming fantasized that he was fighting with someone in front of the table at the moment, and the association in his mind came to him. The set of movements that he made up just now, unconsciously, he began to play gracefully - although in this kind of movement design, it is definitely necessary to greatly exaggerate the ability of one of them, even to the point of distortion!

Kungfu, agility, anticipation, etc., all have reached an almost inhuman level! That's why it's easy to abuse all the supporting characters and villains!

It's not martial arts, it doesn't have those ethereal flying around, but you have to admit that, to a certain extent, it is actually similar to the martial arts style of play!

In other words, in the 1970s, when people first saw the images of knights flying over walls on the big screen, many people were shocked!

And for the same reason, in the past martial arts movies, when have you ever seen such an extremely fierce and realistic battle like now? And the most important thing is that because of the action designer and the needs of the characters, the combat power of one of the opponents has been greatly exaggerated. A very real feeling to fight - my God! As soon as this kind of movie comes out, this guy who played the leading role will have to be named a grandmaster in an instant!

That's right, a generation of grandmasters!

After a while, Guo Ziming suddenly understood why Li Qian emphasized those few words again and again when he analyzed and dismantled it with himself!

Be unrestrained, be smooth, and have the demeanor of a master of "you are all native chickens and wags"!

All of a sudden, I understand!

He tried stepping, stabbing, punching, kicking, punching...it was too hard, and it still didn't feel right!

Changing his posture, changing his way, it seemed that someone was slamming into him from the side of his body. He suddenly twisted his back, missed the imaginary person, and raised his knee. This time, it would probably hurt a lot!

But he kept moving. He grabbed out his left hand and pulled it back suddenly. At the same time, he twisted his body again, raised his arm on the right side of his body, and leaned directly towards the opponent who would be caught!

This time, it was an imaginary backer post!

Although...he doesn't know how to do this kind of kung fu!

But in the imagination, if the male protagonist in the movie is so lean, it's just these two Sanshou, playing handsome and casual, but at the same time full of attack power!

Then, um, another enemy came here, but at this time the table should have been knocked open by the person just now, so a space has been vacated. This time, we have to let go, but we can't expect to have the strength to rebound Son!

"Hey... Guo Ziming!"

Guo Ziming was immersed in the thoughts of extreme freedom and was very excited. He was stunned when he heard this, and turned his head to look, but it was the girls he saw when he first arrived at Li Qian's office this afternoon.

Well, it looks like there can be a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old, so beautiful and delicate that it is outrageous.

"My uncle asked me to tell you that the backer post you just made must not be used! He said that Huang Feihong was a great master, a Confucian hero, and a famous doctor. He has a benevolent heart, let alone you. That move just now, even if he can do it, he will never use too heavy a hand against ordinary enemies!"

Guo Ziming was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and immediately turned to look at the group of people who were still discussing over there.

In the crowd, Li Qian just happened to look over and nodded at him slightly.

Guo Ziming smiled at Li Qian and nodded, indicating that he understood. But at the same time, he couldn't help thinking: "He's chatting with people over there, and he's still paying attention to my movements!"

But after thinking about it, he still reacted quickly, nodded at the girl slightly, and said with a smile, "Thank you, I understand." At the same time, taking this opportunity, he subconsciously looked at her a few more times.

In fact, it is no wonder to him, this girl is so beautiful, and she is just sixteen or seventeen years old, just about to be released, she looks so seductive!

Of course, he knew that the relationship between this girl and Li Qian must be unusual, otherwise she wouldn't be so comfortable sitting on the sofa in Li Qian's office and reading magazines. uncle"! Therefore, no matter how beautiful the other party is, he just glanced at her, and then quickly looked away!

People who have been in this circle all year round often have amazing intuitions - some girls, even if she is an ordinary person, as long as she is too beautiful, she is definitely not something that ordinary people can covet. If you don't look a few times, you might be able to avoid a disaster!

This is something that can be mastered naturally after being in this circle for a long time.

But at this time, the girl's face was full of curiosity, and she asked him, "Hey, are you my uncle's apprentice? Are you a newly signed actor by the company?"

Guo Ziming didn't expect that the girl would take the initiative to talk to him. He was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he quickly smiled and said, "I really want to! But I have a master, so I don't have such a blessing!"

After a pause, he explained with a smile: "I didn't sign up to Minghu Culture either, I just came here to ask Director Li for some advice, and I came to learn from him!"

Then he took advantage of the situation and asked: "I heard you called Director Li Master Uncle?"

The girl raised her face triumphantly, "Well, he is my uncle!"

Guo Ziming smiled and nodded when he heard the words, but didn't ask further questions.

However, the girl clearly enjoyed the look of envy that flashed across his face.

"My uncle is very good, right? He can write and do martial arts!" She said proudly.

Guo Ziming smiled and said: "That is! Search all over the world, how many leaders can there be!" Then he said: "You are his nephew, you are really enviable!"

These words went straight to the heart of the girl.

So, she smiled contentedly, turned around and ran back.

…………

After this discussion, it was hearty.

Especially Fu Xuelong and Song Yupin, they are really going to be photographers in the next shooting, and Li Qian is very happy to see that they are all very rewarding and insightful.

When Fu Xuelong and the others went to pack their things, Li Qian called Guo Ziming over, chatted a few words, and encouraged him to go back and make up a few more sets of movements. Of course, Guo Ziming quickly nodded in agreement.

After everyone had packed up their things and walked into the building, Li Qian said, "Don't be in a hurry to leave after work. I'll treat you. Let's find a place to chat while eating!"

Then he turned to Guo Ziming and said, "Ziming, you come with me too! Let's have a good chat!"

Guo Ziming was overjoyed when he heard the words, and was about to agree, but the girl who was so beautiful suddenly said, with a dissatisfied and complaining tone, she almost stamped her feet, "Master, it's agreed to invite me to dinner tonight!"

Immediately, Guo Ziming swallowed the words back.

Li Qian didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Then you come together at night, okay? Order your favorite food!"

Guo Ziming watched the words and expressions from the sidelines, and found that the girl seemed to hate Li Qian's coaxing tone. At this time, he even stomped his feet angrily, "Master! You promised to invite me to dinner!"

She bit the words "invite me to dinner" very hard.

Li Qian was a little embarrassed, with an unhappy expression, "Yiyi..."

Guo Ziming hurriedly said: "Director Li, I think this is the case. My mind is very messed up, and all kinds of actions are messed up. In this way, I am not in a hurry to waste time on your meal. Please allow me to go back and think about it for two days. I think I have roughly understood your request, allow me two days, I have to stroke it by myself!"

Hearing this, Li Qian hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said with a smile, "Alright!" While speaking, he patted him on the shoulder, "Come on! The paragraph you made up just now is very good! Just follow this path!"

"okay!"
