This guy Guo Fan once worked as a director for Travel TV, which is also the position that Ha Wen held back then, so he thinks that he is a bigger film director than a variety show director. Talk about
This is his personal opinion, but it's not completely nonsense.
As we all know, there is a chain of contempt among the types of work in the entertainment industry. Among them, the status of actors is not high and they are highly replaceable. A few decades ago, during the state-owned studio period, the status of screenwriters was quite high, no less than or even higher than directors. , this is because many of the screenwriters at that time were famous writers, and those movies were adaptations of the screenwriters' novels.
If the screenwriter doesn't nod, it's useless for the director to be anxious, because I won't film for you.
Now there is a reverse trend. The screenwriter is a dog screenwriter, and the director has maintained his status and improved slightly. The actor's status has soared. According to this trend, it may be turned upside down in the future.
When it comes to the director's profession itself, the lowest level is definitely advertising directors, and the highest level is film directors. The status of variety show directors is not much better than that of advertising directors.
In terms of status in the industry, Ha Wen is not as good as Fang Dao. Much of her aura is brought about by the CCTV platform.
Let’s talk about the crew of “Twelve Zodiac Signs”:
Fang Yi is very popular in China. In recent years, he is undoubtedly the number one among the younger generation. He seems to be not much worse than his eldest brother. However, when he arrived in old Paris, he discovered the fame that his eldest brother has accumulated over the past few decades. It's far beyond what he can catch up with.
The crew chose the Château de Chantilly for filming, which is a French national castle. After renovation and reconstruction, it houses one of the largest museums in France, which contains countless rare treasures.
Ordinary tourists who want to come in for a visit must make a reservation one month in advance. Generally, outside crews are not accepted for filming.
But the eldest brother, Cheng, was very proud. He wanted to get the permission to shoot, so he put up yellow strips around the castle, announcing that he had occupied the right to use the castle during this period.
When the crew was filming the first day, a large number of local French people came to watch the show. The number was so large and noisy that the crew was frightened:
There are a lot of nationalistic guys here in Europe who often attack those who speak foreign languages for no reason. They just beat up those who are alone. You must know this if you have studied abroad.
For example, black musicians were beaten in the street by the police in Paris, and Hollywood sweet girls were beaten beyond recognition in London...
While the crew was preparing to call the embassy for help, they sent a local French actor, the roller-skating stuntman Lao Jean, to find out what the folks in his hometown were saying. Lao Jean came back, wiped his sweat, and said:
"Jackie, they're coming for you."
The eldest brother Cheng Na was a veteran, and his expression relaxed at that time: "If you want to sign, you have to wait a little longer, I can't write it."
Lao Rang ran to send a message again and came back after a while: "Jackie, they are willing to wait for you and help you maintain order, but you can't let them go. You really have to give them an autograph... I think you must at least sign it." Ten or twenty, okay?"
Big brother Cheng: "OK, no problem."
The first scene today is shot by Fang Yi, and it is his martial arts scene. Since "New Three Kingdoms" three years ago, Fang Yi has not filmed a fighting scene for a long time. This time he practiced martial arts like crazy After the recruitment, his fighting style was very different from that of his elder brother Cheng, and closer to Jet Li in his youth.
Sharp, beautiful, elegant. Speaking
Martial arts instructor Yuan Baye described Jet Li: "He is not the most powerful in kung fu, but he must be the most beautiful in his movements."
The bamboo pole fight in "Once Upon a Time" fully embodies this martial arts style.
Now this scene is about Jackie's team running to a French castle to steal a copper head. They were discovered. Everyone was panicking and had to split up. Professor Guan, played by Fang Yi, was left alone and was raped by three white, rough-haired men. They blocked the toilet, and in order to vent their anger, the big men closed the toilet door, laughed, and prepared to beat him.
Then I was shocked to find that Professor Guan took off his suit jacket, slowly folded the cuffs of his shirt, and smiled sarcastically at them through the glass mirror of the sink: Apparently Professor Guan confirmed that the environment was safe and started to act seriously.
"action!"
Fang Yi, like a cheetah, jumped out directly, and struck the big man in front of him with his knee in the lower abdomen. The man cooperated with the movements, and his face turned pale. Fang Yi moved his right elbow to the man's chin again, and only heard a crack. With a sound, he killed one of them with a deadly blow.
After landing, he turned around and kicked his shin, and was hugged by another person. He struggled to get close to the edge of the sink, stepped on it, turned over violently, grabbed the big man's head and knocked it on the ground...
Fang Yi was still about to make a move when he suddenly heard:
"Click!"
What's wrong?
He looked at his eldest brother Cheng with confusion. Fang Yi's whole body was slightly stronger than usual due to the exertion of force and congestion.
The eldest brother Cheng pretended to be frightened by him and took an exaggerated step back: "Wow!"
"I have a plan."
He stopped by to touch Fang Yi's muscles and said with emotion: "I was so fast when I was young. I am really strong, no worse than others!"
This is the first time that eldest brother Cheng has seen Fang Yi doing a slap scene with all his strength.
People in this industry can tell their physical fitness by just watching people perform a few moves. For example, when you stepped on the wall and turned over in the air, not many people could do this move beautifully.
Requires particularly strong core strength.
If it doesn't work, I can't do a single movement, and I can't turn around at all.
He said: "The people in the family class have always said that you are very talented. I thought they were being polite...it turns out you are really good and it is because of our professionalism."
"Excellent."
Fang Yi was still at a loss. No matter how good this was, he wouldn't stop playing and say it again.
The eldest brother Cheng ran to touch the glass again and broke it with all his strength. Chen Xunqi quickly said: "Brother, sugar glass! I can't break it."
"Is there any more information?"
"Yes, yes, we have prepared a lot, which is definitely enough for you."
Sugar glass is not glass, it is a film and television prop that replaces glass. Its main ingredients are sugar, corn syrup and water. After the raw materials are formed and dried, the appearance resembles glass.
With it, actors can perform some special actions, such as punching the glass, hitting the glass with their heads... Because of the hot-melting properties of sugar, the edges that should be sharp after being broken will shrink and become smooth, and condense into small pieces, which protects the Actor's skin.
Of course there is still a risk of injury, but it won't be as serious as a knife cut.
The eldest brother Cheng had a constipated expression on his face. This expression was very familiar to Fang Yi. He often saw it at Jiang Wen's place.
This is what it means to change the play.
Soon he called Fang Yi and Wu Zhi Chen Xunqi together: "It's fast, it's too fast."
Lifting his chin to signal Fang Yi: "He fought beautifully, but it ended too quickly, just like dealing with random soldiers... This is a very important fight scene for us. It's very refreshing. I want to add a little more violence." , which requires Fang Yi to play slower."
What does that mean?
"If you are too fierce, you won't be able to express the element of violence. You need to fight a little harder and more quickly, so you will make the best use of everything, drown your opponent in the bathing pool, and break every door. The glass of the sink...you have to be a little more brutal and have your shirt torn, because you are very muscular and you have to show it to the audience."
"I think this would be very interesting." Brother Cheng tried his best to explain using his limited vocabulary.
