Later, we re-shot a scene after dawn where the old man bursts into tears after thinking that he had thrown away the puppet and exhausted all its power. After that, the main plot was basically finished.

All that's left is to shoot the scenes of Hyun Ji and the girls singing and dancing.

The dances were all rehearsed in advance, and minor adjustments were made based on the scene during filming, and the filming went smoothly.

After staying in Licheng for about three days, all the shots were taken. The group said goodbye to the Licheng Puppet Troupe and flew back to Lin'an.

The post-production time of the MV for "The Thread Play" took longer than the shooting time, mainly because of the special effects.

Whether it's a snowstorm or a fire in a ruined temple, especially the scene of puppets dancing in the fire, special effects are required, and they are not only 50-cent special effects, they are very time-consuming.

The team responsible for producing the special effects for the MV of "The Thread Play" is a domestic special effects company, Black Magic Dragon Special Effects Company. The special effects of many blockbusters in Lighthouse Country are also outsourced to them, so the level is naturally guaranteed, and the price is higher than that of the same level.

Foreign special effects teams are cheap.

But even so, many domestic movies are still too expensive, and every time they want them to spend thousands of yuan to produce tens of millions of special effects. Therefore, now they basically don’t accept domestic movies.

Beyond Tomahawk Entertainment.

Since "Escape Age" first cooperated with Tomahawk Entertainment, the two companies have formed a good relationship. Mainly because Tomahawk Entertainment is willing to spend money, and Black Dragon Special Effects Company is naturally happy to cooperate with them if it makes money.

Although the MV for "Silk Opera" was a small order, they took it out of consideration for their old partners. Moreover, even if it was just a few minutes of MV, the money they paid was more than some domestic blockbusters!

It took almost a week to make the MV for "Silk String Opera".

It lasted for more than four minutes and cost more than five million yuan, not counting Han Lan's appearance fee.

It can be called an example of a prodigal.

But the effect of the final product is still worth the price, a blockbuster-level visual experience!

After the MV for "The Thread Play" was released, many fans thought it was a trailer for Tomahawk Entertainment's new movie at first glance!

The video begins with a picture of a snow country, with snow falling all over the sky. The boy is walking in the cold wind, his face turned red and purple from the cold. The picture follows his vision and looks not far away, and the outline of a temple is outlined under the night.

, there was a faint firelight.

The young man unconsciously quickened his pace and walked towards the temple.

The young man's narration also sounded along with the subtitles and the prelude of the music: "Young Master Yu can see ghosts. I encountered a puppet in a snowy night at the temple. His hair was ragged, but he only held a puppet that was extremely well made. It was like a beautiful girl, painted with tears."

The full eyelashes make people feel pity..."

Following the boy's voice, the scene broke into the temple and saw the old man sitting in the corner.

And many viewers immediately recognized the puppet in the old man's arms. Isn't this one of the puppets that appeared in Han Lan's video before?

Then I don’t know who recognized it first, and the barrage suddenly started going crazy:

"This old man is played by Han Lan!"

"What the hell! Lao Lao Hei? Real or fake?"

"You're so strong, I didn't recognize him at first. His makeup and eyes look exactly like an old man who has gone through many vicissitudes of life!"

…

The video is still going on, and the boy's self-narration has gradually stopped with the prelude. There is no need for him to tell the rest of the story. The mv will be restored through pictures and singing.

The girl Xuan Ji's voice is very clear, which made many viewers shine from the beginning.

"Whoever laughs at someone who relies on their good looks to show off their power, how can they be compatible if they have no heart?"

The sound of ringing bells is crisp and clear, and the lights between the curtains are dim

You and I are the perfect match

…”

As the singing and the scene switched to the old man and the puppet in his arms, the audience watching in front of the screen basically realized it.

This is a story about a man and a puppet falling in love.

The close-ups of the puppets' faces that the camera showed from time to time really touched the heartstrings of many people.

The puppet's face is painted very delicately, especially the eyes that are very expressive, and the trace of a tear in the corner of the eye that seems to be there is even more affectionate.

Moreover, some film editing techniques were used in the MV, interlaced with close-ups of Hyun Ji Girl’s face. The puppet in the old man’s arms was carved and depicted according to Li Xinyu, the good-looking character in Hyun Ji Girl, and at this time the picture

She was also the girl who appeared in the film, with tears in her eyes as well. Coupled with the seductive look in her eyes, women, let alone men, could hardly bear to look at her.

The switching between real and fake scenes once made the audience mistakenly think that the puppet in the old man's arms came to life.

In the barrage, there is already the Awei mass grave.

As the song began to sing, the picture in the video also changed to the old man's memory picture. Just when the chorus came, the picture switched to the stage.

Two string puppets made to imitate Hyunhee girl danced to the music. The dance they danced was the same as Hyunhee girl's dance in the MV, so the music was perfectly on point.

In addition, the master who operates the puppets is really good at kung fu, and it looks like a real person dancing. Many fans even asked in the barrage if this was a CG animation special effect?

But no one answered them. It was because the special effects of this MV were of such a high level that they could no longer tell which was the special effects and which was the real scene. It was like the snowstorm at the beginning. Although many people guessed that it should be special effects, after all, they knew that the MV was

It was shot in Licheng, and it is impossible for it to snow in Licheng. But the special effects are so realistic that many people are not sure it is fake. Maybe Han Lan and the others flew to Siberia specifically to shoot this set of shots.

?

And the dramatic tone of the chorus, paired with the water sleeves of the puppets on the stage, is really beautiful!

Xuan Ji is a girl who studied opera. She has opera skills and her singing skills are quite high. They are no longer like a girl group that relies on their reputation to make a living.

Of course, their singing skills are not bad either. After all, when the trainees were selected, those who were not good at singing were immediately passed on.

Tomahawk Entertainment's idol group doesn't just mean you can get into it if you're good-looking, your singing skills and body coordination must all be up to standard.

Just over halfway through the video, the scene began to change into a memory of the old man performing everywhere with puppets when he was young.

Various fragmented memory scenes and scenes in the ruined temple of the old man holding the puppet and telling the young man about the past are edited together in a montage, presenting to the audience the decades in which the old man and the puppet have been dependent on each other.

All kinds of ups and downs are mixed together, and this puppet that has accompanied the old man for decades seems to have a soul.

In addition, Li Xinyu, the prototype of the puppet, is often shown in the picture to materialize the puppet, which also makes the image of the puppet fuller in the hearts of the audience.
Chapter completed!
