Chapter 126, post-editing

In the editing room, the editor was still asking questions.

"Are you sure this was filmed by putting a portable camera on your head?" The editor exclaimed: "Is it one of your chickens? Or is it a pigeon? This is too hard to believe."

"Haha! Indeed, birds like chickens or pigeons are really natural stabilizers, but I can't hold a chicken and interact with Taeyeon, right?" Wang Taika said with a smile.

"That's true..." The editor continued to look at these materials and couldn't help but sigh: "Then this technology is really incredible!"

The editor looked at Wang Taika and the camera, and still couldn't believe it: "You didn't really film it holding the chicken, did you?"

Wang Taika shrugged and was speechless.

The editor's question is not nonsense, but has scientific basis.

In the field of photography, people have worked hard to "anti-shake". Not only do photographers have to develop an "iron hand", but people have also developed various specialized anti-shake equipment. For example, mechanical anti-shake heads, also known as Steadicams

.

However, no matter how high-end artificial anti-shake technology is, it will still have flaws. So some people think of an eccentric solution. It is back to nature, pure and natural, low-cost, simple to operate, and has outstanding effects. Then

Just... tie it to the chicken's head.

Not just chicken heads, but also birds. Among birds, "anti-shake" on the head is a very common phenomenon.

For example, those pigeons that "nod" while walking. They are not trying to achieve the most swaying rhythm, but to keep their heads stable for most of the time while walking, and then quickly change to the next position.

Because birds are very sensitive to spatial changes, as long as there is a slight displacement of the head, they can sense the change in the relative position of the object in the field of view and make corresponding adjustments. The head of a walking pigeon is "stable"

The "period" displacement can be controlled within 0.5 mm, and those bird species that particularly rely on spatial judgment, such as hummingbirds, kingfishers and kestrels, will have even higher "anti-shake performance".

It is generally believed that the stable head of birds is to maintain a stable line of sight. In the animal kingdom, this is actually a very common phenomenon. When individual animals are in a certain visual environment, they often instinctively lock the center of their field of vision.

At a certain point or object.

Keeping the gaze steady is good for an animal's survival, because by eliminating the interference of a wandering gaze, it becomes easier to distinguish a real moving target, which may be a lunch, a malicious competitor, or a car.

A menacing predator.

If you turn your head left and right, you will find that your eyes will probably not follow the movement of your head slowly, but will jump from a stable point to the next point.

Therefore, humans actually have the same mechanism to adjust their vision stabilization, but humans' "visual stabilization" relies more on the flexibly rotating eyeballs. In birds, because of their dependence on vision for flight, their eyeballs are so developed that they almost occupy the eye sockets.

All space within the bird's eye, and at the same time, their eye movements are restricted. So when birds want to adjust their sight, they have to rely on their flexible necks.

Many years ago, when Wang Taika first learned that chicken heads were shock-proof, he became very interested in this. Unfortunately, it was impossible to shoot on the heads of chickens or other birds.

Later, when Wang Taika was in the wild, he could only think about Song Xiangcai except for shooting. However, living like this for a long time also became depressing, so Wang Taika remembered about the earthquake-proof chicken head.

Then Wang Taika seemed to have found a new game. He spent three years observing birds and learning how birds turn their heads quickly. The hard work paid off, and he finally developed such a stable ability that is comparable to cheating. Although it is more stable than cheating.

Not as good as a bird, but no one should be stronger than him. This time it finally came in handy.

We get a lesson from this story, that is, as long as you work hard...ah!

The truth is that there is absolutely no more boring person in the world than Wang Taika. He actually spent three years learning how birds turn their heads quickly! He is simply insane!

Oh, yes, Wang Taika is actually crazy!

After the editor finished reading the footage, he looked at Wang Taika with a half-smiling expression.

You can tell at a glance that they are all sensible people. Wang Taika then said: "Look, if these materials are edited..."

The editor waved his hand: "Well, although it's embarrassing to say this, I am only the editor of the seventh filming team. Although this material is obviously the company's work, it is not part of my job. Although I also admit that

The shots were great, but I didn't want to find more work for myself."

"I know what you mean." Since Wang Taika is here, how could he not have a perfect plan?

Speaking of which, the company was really cheating, giving Wang Taika and Li Suyuan the opportunity to shoot a variety show, but essentially the two important tasks of filming and editing actually fell on Wang Taika. Li Suyuan is just a writer and doesn't understand these things.

Now that Wang Taika is getting busier, he realizes that time is tight. In addition, he hasn’t edited for a while, and his skills are really a bit rusty, so just to be on the safe side, Wang Taika came to the post-production editing room of the seventh filming team.

.

As a film crew with a clear division of labor, the relationship and division between various departments are very strict, and they must not go beyond the boundaries. Because there will be no rewards for doing more, but if you make a mistake, you will get a lot of trouble.

.

The same goes for the editor. These are extraneous matters, so it’s better to ignore them. Although these shots are interesting, he also has some ideas that he wants to try. But everything cannot be based on challenging the system. Which is more important?

Light and clear at a glance.

Wang Taika didn't intend to make the editor so obedient. Reading the material was just his first step.

"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you your name yet?" Wang Taika was so anxious about the film that he even forgot to ask for your name.

"Oh, hello, my name is Liu Zongxi." The editor smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Wang Taika's hand.

"Hello, I'm Wang Taika. That's right, I understand your concerns." Wang Taika said: "We are filming the seventh team, and we are currently in charge of a functional variety show, so it is really not a good habit to meddle in other people's business.

When I come here this time, I don’t intend to be a hand-in-hand and ask you to help with editing for free. As the PD of this variety show, I now officially invite you to join the film crew of "Clenched Fist: Taeyeon's Holiday" and serve as the general post-production team."

"So, how many later stages are there in total?" Liu Zongxi asked.

"If you join, one." Wang Taika saw that Liu Zongxi was about to change his face and said quickly: "But don't worry, these are all false. The most important thing is that I will broadcast part of it from the funds as your extra

The cost of editing.”

Liu Zongxi blinked: "How much?"

"Each issue is one-third of an issue of a functional variety show. With a small film crew, this is the limit!" Wang Taika gritted his teeth and said, feeling heartbroken. Because the money is not actually from the budget, but from Wang Taika.

Taika's part of the remuneration was paid in reverse by Wang Taika.

How could the company pay for this program if it is so under-appreciated? From the very beginning, the company had obviously left the editing to Wang Taika and did not assign post-production to this program.
