Crazy, 500 yuan also dare to make a science fiction blockbuster

Every lens in it has its own unique purpose.

And this is exactly Ye Heng's purpose.

Chapter 477 The Language of Movies

Three months later, Ye Heng's film was completed.

In the academy, everyone was sitting in the classroom, the curtains were drawn, and in the classroom, the movie they had filmed in the past three months - "Citizen Kane" was playing.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the movie, although in these three months, they had almost gone through the filming process of the movie, and they already knew the plot of the movie like the back of their hands.

But when they watched the movie from the beginning again, especially after they had mastered a lot of "skills" and "language" about the movie, the movie seemed a little different.

When the movie ended, Ye Heng looked at everyone.

"How did you feel after watching the movie?"

Hearing this, everyone in the audience immediately raised their hands excitedly.

After 11 full months of study, they have already deeply comprehended Ye Heng's various knowledge about movies.

Now they, per capita movie masters, have a new understanding of movies, and they all want to stand up and express their opinions.

"Christopher."

Seeing Ye Heng calling himself, Christopher stood up immediately.

"A large number of depth-of-field lenses are used in the movie, which makes the picture more varied and adjusted in depth, and greatly enhances the spatial tension of the movie picture."

"These meaningful depth-of-field shots make the audience's vision more realistic and require the audience to think more actively and even participate in the mise-en-scène."

……

Staff said a lot of movie-specific terms, and the others nodded one after another, seeming to agree with him.

Seeing this, Ye Heng smiled.

"Your interpretation of the film is correct, but other than that, if you go out of the director's perspective and watch this film, what do you guys want to say?"

Hearing this, everyone was suddenly stunned.

Get rid of a director's perspective?

A movie, besides the director's perspective, whose perspective is it?

The answer is simple, the audience's perspective.

"Think about it, an audience walks into a movie theater, and he has no idea of ​​the concept of the movie we just talked about, let alone why it was shot like this."

"So, what did they see?"

Everyone lowered their heads and thought about it, as if they couldn't give any answers for a while.

"The most straightforward and simple story."

Christopher spoke.

After thinking for a while, the others nodded their heads.

Not every audience will care about how these shots are used and what the meaning of these shots is.

For most people, what they care about is the story itself, how is the story, whether the story is exciting or not.

"Then I'm asking you now, if what the audience wants is the story itself, and not many people are willing to care about the language hidden in his shots, then is there any point for us to do this?"

"There is no one at all, no one at all, they don't know why the camera shakes like this, they don't know why the lighting is like this, does it make sense?"

The moment they heard this, everyone present was stunned.

They looked at Ye Heng with disbelief in their eyes.

It seems a little unbelievable that this world-class film master who personally taught himself the language of film, actually asked such a question.

Does it still make sense?

But is Ye Heng really asking this question?

"Does everything make sense? That sounds like something from a nihilist."

Ye Heng said with a helpless smile.

"But I'm not trying to lead you into a nihilistic philosophy, and I don't have that ability."

"I've been telling stories this way for almost 20 years."

"It's like a small language, a small language that was only read by me for a long time."

"It was a very uncomfortable feeling."

"It's hard for me to describe this feeling. If I have to say it, it's like a stranger in a foreign land screaming in his own language alone, but no one can understand."

"But in the future, I think such a situation should not happen, because you have inherited him."

"Today, I will teach you the small language I invented. It is not perfect and has many loopholes."

"But I really hope that you will pass on this language of storytelling."

"Even if no one believes, no one cares, please continue to tell him."

"And I hope that you can enjoy it and be happy to use this language to tell stories!"

"I know this is a weird request, but please try not to lose the 'sound' of the film."

After speaking, Ye Heng looked at the more than 200 students sitting in front of him, with unconscious sadness in his eyes.

The students were silent. They looked at Ye Heng in front of them with thoughts in their eyes.

After a long time, a student stood up.

Under the gaze of everyone, he raised his hands and clapped his hands in the silent and empty classroom.

The applause was so calm, but in that calm, there were the most intense emotions in the world.

Another student stood up, and they stood up one by one. The applause continued, and the sound became brighter and echoed throughout the classroom.

Ye Heng looked at the students in front of him with a smile on his face and tears in his eyes.

At this moment, Ye Heng can be sure of one thing.

He will die, he will die like Professor Cheng, he will die like Chu Yixi.

But after his death, the world will not lose anything because of his death.

The group of people in front of him will become the new life of the film industry.

Use the language he "stolen" from that world to feed the film industry in this world.

They will know how to tell a story, not only to tell a good story, but also to tell it in a unique language.

The smile on Ye Heng's face became wider, the burden on his body seemed to disappear, and his whole body became more active.

He pressed his hand and signaled everyone to sit down.

"There is still a month to go. During this month, I will not talk about your knowledge about how to make a movie."

"I'll tell you about the history of cinema."

"Those who are not interested in this can also rest in the dormitory."

"Don't worry, I won't deduct your credits." After speaking, Ye Heng smiled and left.

And everyone was stunned in place.

Regarding the history of film, although there are many directors here, I am afraid that none of them can correctly tell the time when film was invented.

However, people always have a special fondness for history.

And the one who will tell them about the movie is this man known as the "King of Movies", who tells stories in his own "language". Who can resist such doubts?

Chapter 478 Feel Their Feelings

"Does anyone know when the first movie was born?"

In the classroom, Ye Heng looked at the students and asked.

Everyone showed a dazed look, then shook their heads.

"Does anyone know the relevant knowledge, or some small topics?"

Then Sergio raised his hand.

Ye Heng nodded, motioning for him to speak.

"I've been in the film industry for many years, so I have some rudimentary knowledge of this stuff."

"It is said that it was probably at the beginning of the 20th century, that is, around 1900."

"Thank you, Sergio."

Ye Heng asked Sai Qiaoer to sit down, and then continued to talk.

"Actually, the birth of film, or the birth of film as I know it, was much earlier than this year."

As he spoke, Ye Heng wrote down a series of numbers on the blackboard.

"January 1895, 12."

"At least five years earlier than 1900."

After seeing Ye Heng's answer, Christopher immediately raised his hand.

"Teacher, please forgive my recklessness, but can I ask, how did you determine this time?"

Everyone looked at Ye Heng, even though Ye Heng was an unprecedented genius in the film industry.

But in 1895, Ye Heng obviously didn't seem like someone from that era, and it's unlikely that he would know such a problem.

Ye Heng smiled and nodded, "The spirit of seeking knowledge is commendable."

After speaking, he opened a large iron box at his feet.

"Actually, I just happen to have some evidence."

With that said, he took out an old-fashioned projector.

In addition, there is a film box and a stack of old newspapers wrapped in plastic bags.

"These are some old news, and it took me some trouble to find them."

Having said this, a smile appeared on Ye Heng's face.

He lied about this, in fact, he didn't spend much effort at all.

He asked people from the new era to help him find the news of that era. When Bai Qiguo heard that Ye Heng was looking for it, he opened up the treasury and copied all the news that could be found throughout the year for Ye Heng. ordered one.

And after confirming the news that Ye Heng needed, they sent the relevant news directly to Ye Heng.

These old newspapers with a history of more than a hundred years!

Everyone was eager to try, as if they all wanted to go forward and take a look at the newspaper.

But Ye Heng didn't get what he wanted. Instead, he continued to talk while assembling the machine.

"But instead of watching the news, let's take a look at what the world's first movie is like."

With that said, the machine was almost assembled.

And everyone's faces were also full of shock.

First movie! ! !Leaving aside its content, this name alone is enough to brag about for a lifetime!

"Pull down the curtains."

Ye Heng yelled, and everyone pulled up the curtains with ease.

Soon, the classroom was pitch black and became a screening room.

Then Ye Heng started to play the movie, and a countdown timer appeared on the screen, which was added by Ye Heng himself.

"3."

"2."

"1."
