Chapter 303 Eighth Master's Assassin
Secondly, the shots and editing are in line with the audience's viewing habits of mainstream movies. The speed is neither fast nor slow, and the rhythm is relaxed.

Make sure to watch it as easily as possible. Forget about the camera arrangement and focus on the action and fighting content, so you won’t feel tired after watching it.

Moreover, his action design does not rely much on other factors, such as juggling tables and chairs, camera shaking, wires flying all over the sky...

It is a well-behaved fight, all of which are fusses about the body of boxing and kick kung fu.It is such a well-organized martial arts style that can be better loaded into movies with other themes.

Just like a master carpenter with an easy-going personality, he will make whatever you want him to make, and he will make whatever you ask him to make. He has no so-called upholdings or eccentricities of his own, so everyone loves to find him.

The more pretentious point is:

The highest good is like water, water benefits all things without fighting.

That's why Cheng Long and Donnie Yen can only make their own movies, while Yuan Baye can make everyone's movies.

They can only make a film dedicated to fighting, and then fool around with a theme to deal with it.But Yuan Baye can make literary films, comic films, science fiction films, philosophical films, main themes, CCTV's four classics, and B-level films...

He has no signature of his own, no so-called master of a generation, he is just a craftsman, and it is precisely in this way that he does not use his own concentration to achieve the real master of motion design.

After a bad temper and a bad temper fell out, he asked Ba Ye to come to rescue him, and he was able to shoot without saying a word. The filming still looks good, and he can still catch up with Sammo Hung's style before.

There is only one abstract feature: to ensure that the audience can clearly see the reason for each punch and kick, and to determine a chain of offensive and defensive interactions where you punch and kick.

Other than that, you can do whatever style you want.It can be fast and fierce like Killing Bill, or it can be slow and beautiful like a night banquet, it can be exaggerated to fly to the sky and collapse like kung fu, or it can be fine-knitted to fight there like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and hackers empire……

In terms of hard skills, no one is inferior to anyone else in martial arts on Hong Kong Island, after all, they have been mixed for decades.The difference lies in their different aesthetic appeals, which lead to objective results.

Just like abstract painting and realistic painting, the basic skills are the same, but the most marketable works are often realistic and slightly rendering.

Ding Cheng summarized Yuan Heping's action scenes in just six words:

understand,
Nice to see!
The so-called understanding, the tricks used and the key points of the attack, such as turning the fingers and other anti-joint force, attacking the softest parts such as the armpits and waist...

The magnitude of the strength and the direction of the fall are the most basic consensus of human beings, which can resonate.

Only when the audience can understand and believe can they empathize and be involved.

It is so cool to watch that every action scene is a shot flow that accurately reflects the action and vividly renders the action.Shots and editing are based on allowing the audience to understand the action and action logic as much as possible.

At the same time, there are renderings and exaggerations on this basis, so that the audience can enjoy watching and watch it vigorously.

Use popular action elements and focus on recombination.In other words, the mainstream feature film narrative mode is reflected in the action scenes.

Smooth cause and effect chain, clearly let you see.The speed is neither fast nor slow, and the content is neither too much nor too little.Repeatedly switching offense and defense, two-way see-saw strength.The gold content of the process is high, and there are many tricks in life.Mirror language is plain and vivid, never fancy.

The final result is that the audience will follow the fighting party, and when encountering every move of the opponent, what should they do with the character?
In "Fearless", Li Chengjie was locked in his arms by a strong man several times stronger than him, unable to move. The rhythm paused here, and he was struggling hard...

The audience followed his situation and wondered what to do. Later, they dug into the ribs of Hercules with their hands. The enemy was forced to let go of the pain, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

He is the reconciliation of romance and reality. Romance is an extension of reality, an exaggeration, which can fill people's regrets about boring reality. Watching movies is a psychological carnival.

And if the scale is not grasped well, the sword will be deviated, and the audience will be separated from the willingness to be deceived, because too fake and too true will make the audience feel annoying.

There are a small number of audiences who are obsessed with exaggerated styles, there are also a few audiences who are obsessed with martial arts realism, and there are also a few audiences who are obsessed with a certain style.

Therefore, Yuan's action films that do not go to extremes and are quite satisfactory cater to the aesthetics of the vast majority of audiences.

What I appreciate more is that it refuses to organize content with things other than fighting, and hardly relies on dramatic plots, specific cultures, and certain aesthetic styles.

Focus on the business of fighting and try to keep it as pure as possible.Discover the beauty of the details of the action itself, and shoot the competition itself in an orderly and unique way.

Once the characters fight against each other, they will fight fiercely for a long time, the scene is closed, and the actions are coherent. All action elements must participate in offense and defense.

Even if dance and acrobatic movements appear in his action scenes, they are definitely no longer themselves, but are split into factors and become necessary movements in the fighting chain.

This kind of action design that is closely related to the martial arts can be grafted into other movies at will.Any style combined with it will not be blunt or conflict with its original "distinctive style".

For sci-fi movies, fly high, for cult movies, spray more blood and beat harder, for comic-comedy movies, keep the action simple and exaggerated, for classic martial arts movies, keep the action saturated and rich, and if you want something aesthetically pleasing, keep the pace slower. soft.

Cheng Xiaodong's return to realism, Yuan Kui's films in Hollywood, Donnie Yen's Ip Man series coincide with his...

It fully proves the audience's natural desire for martial arts movies!

In today's big film industry, more and more proficient and creative film language cannot replace Kung Fu action itself. Foreigners' obsession with our Kung Fu must be an obsession with real Kung Fu.

Because they don't understand the so-called martial arts culture, and they have seen a lot of humorous juggling, not to mention special effects.

In the end, only logic and linear narrative are the kingly way, and what can bridge cultural differences is also the common experience of human beings in actual combat.

Fist to the flesh,

The sword sees blood,

one trick one style,
Realism!
