[US Entertainment] Top Hollywood directors

After class, Claire got into the school's editing room and took out her own low-quality film.This is the film she originally prepared for her graduation project - "Inhuman".Accompanied by Dawn Collins from the editing major.Originally, there was a month to prepare for editing, but with the current situation, it seems that I can't wait any longer.After hearing that Claire wanted to audition for Spielberg, Dawn was very supportive of her.

Holding the "semi-finished product" in hand, it seems that the post-production can only be compressed to one week.Only in this way can we catch up with the registration.

Originally, the money for this movie was the funds declared to the school, which was not rich.In such a tight situation, the selection of materials has become the primary issue.

What type of film is the best?If low cost and high quality are considered, then everyone will not let go of the option of horror movies.

Her choice is also very close to this theme-thriller doomsday movie.

There are so many post-apocalyptic films, she has to think of a way if she wants to shoot something new.

The film tells the story of the doomsday of human beings after being devastated by a catastrophe: a pair of surviving father and son struggled in the ruins where thousands of households were sung by Xiaoshu ghosts. It happened inevitably.In order to protect his son, the father has been pushing the trolley in the supermarket and leading him towards the sea in search of hope of survival.However, despair overwhelmed them countless times, the father's physical strength was exhausted, and the son's chances of survival became smaller and smaller.

The father's cough became more and more serious, and his leg was injured, and he finally collapsed. The son, who was in panic, followed his father's last words, took the diarrhoea, and walked to the road alone.A man with a wife, son and daughter took him in, and the boy was embraced by a woman who appeared. The image of women appearing as redeemers in literature reappeared, and human beings finally saw the hope of rebirth at this moment.

Although Claire searched all around, she couldn't find a suitable filming location until she finally settled on a suburb in Pennsylvania.

Even if it is a collaboration between actors, screenwriters, editors and other school graduates, there will be no salary and no overhead.But there are many other expenses, such as extras, make-up, camera, lighting, etc., after saving everything that can be saved, this is not a small amount of expenses.Generally speaking, Claire's crew has been filming tightly.

In order to record a single wind sound outdoors, instead of mixing the sounds of birds, sirens and motors, the sound engineer can only use unidirectional microphones.

The film was only selected to be low-to-medium, and it has a sandy feel when presented on the big screen.This would have been fatal for a normal movie.This will not only make the film appear inferior, but also reduce the audience's interest in watching it.

The super16mm film is used to reproduce the feeling of looking at old photos and recalling the past. The graininess of this film is very different from the graininess of digital production.

Its particles will move, presenting an anthropomorphic texture. In terms of color, it also has a very special performance. Some magenta and green are added to make the film have a mixture of warm and cold colors, unlike ordinary photography with a complete spectrum. It's like the effect of the early Ekta reversal film.

This is not a mistake of her choice, even, it is her deliberate intention, slightly adjusting the contrast and saturation will achieve a desolate, dark and suffocating effect.

Not only will it not be inferior to high-quality film, but it will turn that bad effect into a kind of breath-destruction, which fits her theme very well.

After four hours, the two finally adjusted the light perception of a movie.

But this is only the first part, and it will be changed according to specific scenarios in the end.

"Okay, this paragraph, this paragraph", "Go to five frames here, it's done here", she said to Dawn: "Wait, you can't cut here..."

Dawn threw the mouse aside: "Brother, this paragraph is too long."

Every time she made a move, it was like cutting flesh, she couldn't help sighing, indeed, a director needs the help of a good editor.

The help of the editor will allow the director to jump out of the small situation and observe and discard it macroscopically.

It's like Watson and Holmes.

To be honest, she really didn't want to give up any of them.After all, this is her "expression".

Claire looked uncomfortable, and every cut was painful.

Seeing that a lot of work has been completed, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at it now, if this continues, the original tape of more than ten hours will be reduced to less than two hours.
