Chapter 161 Detail Control

Xu Yinghua analyzed Jiang Yunyan: "Swallow itself has a world-weary attitude towards the world, so he made a foreshadowing that he had committed suicide in the past. In fact, there are many emotions in this regard. I hope that what you can present is It's not a particularly healthy state, and it's a bit out of touch with reality."

"To put it bluntly, the mental state is a bit like a frightened bird, fragile, easy to be broken, and the image of a woman who is easy to be smashed to pieces. You should study more."

Turning his head and smiling at Ding Cheng: "Why is the character Yu Guowei so persistent in finding the murderer? What is his motivation?"

"For Chinese people, especially those of that era, it is very important to seek a sense of existence within the system."

"At that time, we yearned for a higher level of power, and we were actually seeking a sense of social security and the realization of self-worth, so it was a unique thing."

"This is something I am very sure of. For example, the desire setting of the Coen Brothers is often money. The driving force of the crimes of "Fargo" and "No Country for Old Men" is all money. I don't think this problem existed in the 90s. People 20 years ago The only desire is to seek protection within the system and yearn for a higher status.”

"Old Yu is actually an inconspicuous part, but he has a little bit of power, and he is very satisfied with the enjoyment and pleasure of having power."

"For example, in the small world of the security department, I feel very complacent. This kind of people is actually very common in that era. This is the core motivation of the characters."

Ding Cheng nodded. This is the third cooperation between the two, and it is also a suspenseful crime theme. They have long been familiar with it.Asked directly: "Most of the script is a rain play?"

"I think rain is the real natural atmosphere, which has an oppressive impact on people's hearts, lives and interpersonal relationships."

"Snow is more like an illusory externalized thing. In fact, it blurs the boundary between reality and illusion, and there is a sudden element in it."

"The two snow scenes actually have a feeling that fiction has invaded reality, making you wonder what kind of space you are in. Don't you think that the first snow scene is even a bit absurd?"

"In the last scene, the reality turned into a huge stage. I think the symbolic meaning is stronger."

Xu Yinghua enjoyed the process of sharing with the actors and said: "It is still closely related to the atmosphere of the story. When people feel the most torn and tense, using a heavy rain can especially convey the tension between the two."

"Especially the pattering rain is very realistic. This is the feeling in winter here. It makes people feel very bored and can never finish the feeling. There is no need for heavy rain, and the gloomy atmosphere can still be conveyed very accurately."

Ding Cheng nodded secretly. For the director, in addition to establishing a narrative style, establishing a visual style is also very important.If you want to have a distinctive image feature in your work, then you need to capture something unique in the atmosphere.

The rainy environment is very consistent with the atmosphere of this play, and it has a special and unique sense of customization.

"Two ALEXA Minis, the lens is mainly MP..." Liu Yingjian, the main creative director, said convincingly: "Actually, I originally wanted to use ALEXA SXT plus MA, because the budget did not support it."

"Mini is the best choice when shooting action scenes. Before, there were several domestic films that used Mini as the main engine. We have also tested it, so we are very relieved about Mini."

"Have you seen the "Arrival"? I thought it was amazing and bold at the time, using a very soft and low-contrast dark tone to present a science fiction film?"

"In my opinion, it is actually a literary film with strong emotions, or it expresses thinking about the meaning of life through the shell of a science fiction film, and it actually talks about the courage of life."

"Because when the image is softened, the viewer's visual psychology will be delicate, and emotions will be conveyed more easily. I think our script has the same temperament. This kind of tone looks dark, but actually presents a rich level of detail in the dark part .”

"I'm going to test it at a suitable sensitivity. I chose ISO640, overexposed +1 stop in the early stage, and then pressed back to the appropriate brightness in the later stage..."

Don't look at Lao Liu's usual laughing and joking, he is absolutely unambiguous when he meets work, a typical technical madman.

Xu Yinghua nodded, and asked back: "How to solve the rain play?"

"The rainproof of the equipment must be the first consideration. Zhao Yonghui, the cameraman of the A camera, has strong hands-on skills. He found a plastic film on the Internet and used a plastic sealing machine to make several rainproof covers by himself. Does not affect heat dissipation."

"We can also wrap the machine with plastic wrap, especially when we are on the top of the cannon for several overhead shots. In order to prevent the rain curtain from forming in front of the camera, we can hold the umbrella at an angle to guide the water flow out of the picture..."

"Some camera positions simply use plastic sheets to seal the machine and people together. The rain screen must not be used, and the Mini has no 24V voltage output..."

"At that time, those who take pictures and move lights will be equipped with small leather pants with integrated water shoes, and then put on a long thick raincoat, and toss in the rain and mud casually, just like playing!"

Everyone roared with laughter, Ding Cheng liked this feeling very much, everyone worked together, just wanted to shoot good works.

Later, Lian Jiang Yunyan was also infected, and put forward a lot of constructive opinions on the role, and kept discussing with the director and herself, and the relationship became more and more familiar.

Even set the makeup in advance, stand in front of the camera and go through the scene several times to see if the color is okay?
Liu Yingjian pointed to the screen and explained: "Because in the past, in order to obtain very delicate dark parts when shooting film, it often required overexposure, and then suppressed the image in post-production. This time I plan to adopt a similar shooting method."

"I found that it is completely acceptable to adjust the ALEXA Mini's exposure of one stop to the normal visual experience, and there is no loss of highlight details, and the dark parts are very clean. Do you see that the details of your expressions are also rich?"

“Slowly open the light hole in one shot until the picture is overexposed by five stops, and then match the brightness of the picture to evenness in post-production, so that a visual effect of slowly changing depth of field can be obtained without the actors and the camera moving… "

Ding Cheng is very satisfied. For an actor, the camera is the best partner. If you have the opportunity, you should learn more, so that you don't overwhelm yourself with art.

"Get more 18K-Par headlights over there, and try to diffuse light..."

"You guys scattered the four headlights from the second floor outside the window with a white cloth..."

"Indoors, the diffused light simulated outside the window is the main light, and a few people went up and set up the ceiling frame to diffuse soft light to brighten the effect of rain..."

To say that Xu Yinghua's entire team has strong execution ability, it can be seen from the shadow chasing the murderer, if there are conditions, they must go, and if there are no conditions, they must create conditions!

This is very different from Ding Sheng. They are all male dramas. Ding Sheng pays more attention to the blood and impulse in his bones, and doesn't care too much about technology.

And Xu Yinghua pursues perfection in details, likes to consider cost performance, and always wants to get the best results with the least investment, which Ding Cheng appreciates very much.

Good directors are not made with money.
The effect made by others with [-] million,
I can handle it with 5000 million,

That's called bullshit!
Watching others work hard, I have to enter the state, and close the door to study the state of Yu Guowei. As a post-[-]s generation, I have not passed through that special era, and I can only understand the spiritual world of people at that time through videos.
