Disaster Artist

This scene can be divided into two parts. The first part is the perspective shot of the side profile. The real difficulty lies in the cooperation of the actors in one shot.

With Artest as the core, how to design the timing of the opponent's appearance one after another, how to complete the fight in a narrow space, and how the picture will not appear too routine or too fake, how to keep the cooperation between the martial arts actors true in the routine, And make sure the shot is smooth and natural.

At the same time, the combination of special makeup such as blood plasma and wounds with the actual fighting action, do not expose the clues in the documentary-style footage of the end, and even need to show a sense of reality, which is undoubtedly even more difficult, after all, after the actual combat , unforeseen accidents may occur.

finally!

This time the shooting was perfect, and everyone on the studio set held their breath and stared at the shooting that was going on in front of them.

Even at a certain moment, I forgot that this was the shooting scene, immersed myself in the adrenaline bursting with blood plasma, and immersed myself in it.

Action, perfect; cooperation, perfect; blood plasma, perfect.

The ballet-like footsteps of Artest and Jiang Tao are also perfect, truly showing the picture-scroll artistic beauty of the side profile shot, as if witnessing the creation of a pair of oil paintings.

Next is the second part. The difficulty of this part is even higher. The difficulty lies in the tacit cooperation between Chen Mu and the actors.

From the first day of entering the crew, the camera team has been working with the martial arts team to discuss how to use a close-up pseudo-documentary to present the realism and impact of the first perspective——

How should the photographer's footsteps keep a distance, and at the same time, how should the action actor's martial arts design the action, and how can the cooperation of the two sides not go wrong?

Of course, this is not one shot to the end. You can use multiple different angles to completely capture the entire martial arts scene, and then create the "breathing" of the scene through the control of editing points in the later stage, but the premise is that the photographer's lens must have rhythm. And rhythm, the actor's fight must have the angle and composition.

Difficulty, more than one or two points.

Chen Mu, staring with all his attention, held his breath, he could even hear the sound of his blood gurgling, as if ten thousand horses were galloping ready to break free.

Chen Mu likes such challenges, and every cell in his body is cheering, constantly challenging his own limits and seeking breakthroughs.

near.

closer.

From the corner of his eyes, Chen Mu was always observing Artest, who was gradually approaching the end of the corridor on the right.

On the one hand, he is observing the timing of his cutting into the camera, and on the other hand, he is observing the rhythm of Artest's action scenes and slowly adjusting his breathing.

Closer again.

Artest and the camera slowly approached at the same time, and then Chen Mu slightly bowed and took two steps forward, keeping parallel to the camera track, slightly lowering the center of gravity of his body, maintaining a stable state, as close as possible to the stability of the track shooting, to ensure that the picture can be seamless Convergence to facilitate post-editing.

Tread.

Tread.

Artest was getting closer, Chen Mu carried the camera and started to move laterally, cutting into the lens one step ahead of time, pulling the perspective from far to near.

The corner of the corridor was close at hand, Artest's footsteps paused for a while, and he could see two long knives rushing through the air, forcibly pushing his upper body back, barely avoiding the **** disaster.

At the same time, Chen Mu stepped forward boldly and resolutely. With a lunge, his figure was already drawn in close-up mode at a constant speed. He came to the oblique back of Artest's right shoulder and captured the doll at close range. On the side of his face, he seemed to be able to feel the ups and downs of his breathing.

Whoosh!

Swinging the long knife horizontally, Artest leaned back and bent over to complete a 180-degree circle; only to see Chen Mu's camera flipped in his wrist, sinking, turning, and circling with Artest's movements, taking small steps. The pace adjustment ensures that he can keep up with Artest's every move.

On the monitor, Lu Qian could see that the screen followed Artest's movements rapidly, but the camera still remained clear. He could see the dazzling long knife and the dazzling street lights, and even the mildew on the ceiling. Spots and water spots.

From the smoothness of orbital shooting to the subtle shaking of breathing to the movement of handheld photography, the seamless cooperation of the camera crew makes the entire shot flow smoothly and smoothly, not only creating the illusion of one shot to the end without the slightest sense of inconsistency, but also as if entering a Tai's brain usually drills the viewing corner into the tree hole step by step——

Of course, for the second half of the shot, Lu Qian didn't plan to take it to the end. After the transitional part was over, he would use neat editing to create a sense of breath in the shot.

As for whether it can successfully achieve the effect expected by Lu Qian, it depends on the shooting skills of Chen Mu's handheld camera——

In the next second, Artest could see that he straightened his waist again, swung his baton continuously to complete the sweep, and set off the enemy on his left who was trying to step forward.

At the same time, the dagger has been walking continuously in a "Zhi" shape, rushing forward like a poisonous snake spitting a letter, making three marks on the enemy's chest on the right hand side, and then the left baton stabs straight at the throat.

Puchi.

A thin layer of blood plasma sprayed out, and the guy backed away after the shrill screams.

Artest's movements didn't stop. He drew a circle with his left hand and swept the other guy's head. He slammed a stick on the other guy's head, and turned his body 360 degrees in the air. The pressure fell heavily with the pull of gravity.

Then, there is no sound.

Lu Qian stared at the camera lens, the focus of his eyes was completely focused, he could clearly describe the trajectory of Chen Mu's lens movement, ensuring that every scene would not lose focus, while Artest's movements could stay on the golden line, Show the lines of Artest's martial arts movements.

Like a dance~www.wuxiaspot.com~ graceful and light, crisp and neat, full of strength bursting out of the muscles, every move can deeply feel the rhythm of the dance.

The most important thing is that the biggest taboo of pseudo-documentaries is that when the camera lens is in high-speed motion, violent shaking may cause physical discomfort, just like seasickness. I want to vomit, of course, Chen Mu is no exception.

However, when Chen Mu's shot is in high-speed motion, the focus is still not blurred, and the rhythm and rhythm are highly unified, as if the audience is immersed in the scene. Even if the stomach rolls, it may be thrown to the scene by a temporary burst of adrenaline Behind the head, completely immersed in the camera.

That feeling is really wonderful, as if you are riding a roller coaster, and the surrounding scene is magnified in an unprecedentedly clear and magnified way.

Involuntarily, I followed the picture and followed Artest to breathe, feeling the intense tension of the blood.

puff.

puff.
