In the movie "Love Letter", the most impressive weather element is probably the snowing scene.
Including classic posters of movies, they also show the heroine raising her head in the snow. In the future, many people rushed to imitate the trend of taking photos.
Based on this point, Jiang Yuan, Fu Yunshen and others also took this important factor into consideration when choosing filming locations.
In the end, the shooting location was chosen in a remote city in China, a small town just under the snow-capped mountains.
On the plane, Fu Yunshen sat next to Jiang Yuan and showed Jiang Yuan some of the confirmed shooting locations.
"According to the shooting plan you gave me, I made plans and reservations for the main shooting locations."
"After you turn on the computer, you can start shooting immediately." Fu Yunshen handed over the tablet and showed Jiang Yuan the confirmed photos of the venue.
Pointing his finger on the screen, he flipped through the pictures one after another. They looked quite familiar. Jiang Yuan had browsed them briefly before.
It was just that it was too early for the movie to start shooting at that time, so Jiang Yuan could only confirm a general impression.
But now that filming was about to start, and the text in the script was about to be transformed into concrete pictures, Jiang Yuan became serious about staring at these picture scenes, and began to compare them one by one with the pictures he wanted to shoot in his mind.
When something came to mind, Jiang Yuan used an electronic pen to directly write annotations on the pictures, all of which were more detailed parts.
"We have found the first wave of extras and they will be in place on time." Wang Wen, who was sitting on the other side of Jiang Yuan, thought about it and reported the news to Jiang Yuan.
I accidentally noticed the annotation Jiang Yuan left on the picture, and was slightly shocked.
With the shooting location as a background image and the text annotations written by Jiang Yuan, Wang Wen felt that at that moment, a picture began to appear in his mind.
A very concrete visual language. At this moment, Wang Wen recalled some of He Jing's previous comments about Jiang Yuan, and his understanding became much more profound.
By constantly writing on the tablet, Jiang Yuan himself became much clearer about the upcoming shooting.
"Even the details of the costume have been set up?" Fu Yunshen took back his tablet and looked at Jiang Yuan's annotations, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Although the rough clothing matching was written in the script, the makeup code also matched the clothing based on this point.
But now what Jiang Yuan marked on the picture has been further refined, even down to the desired fabric texture of the clothes.
Suddenly, Fu Yunshen felt that Jiang Yuan was indeed suitable for doing multiple jobs by himself.
After making a rough plan, Jiang Yuan stopped at the right time, put on his headphones and began to relax with his eyes closed.
On an airplane, especially during a long flight, Jiang Yuan really felt that it was not suitable for work.
Not to mention that after the plane lands, you have to take a long and bumpy ride to the filming location.
Just commuting is enough to wear down one’s spirit.
Listening to the music playing in the headphones, Jiang Yuan quickly relaxed. After all, he already had more experience resting during flights.
Although it may not be very comfortable to sleep, at least the flight time is shortened a lot.
After waking up, it won't be long before the plane reaches its destination.
Jiang Yuan and others set off from the Magic City in the morning, and when they were about to arrive at their destination, it was already close to night.
However, I did enjoy the sunset over the sea of clouds on the plane. It looked very beautiful. Jiang Yuan also took a photo with his camera through the porthole to record it.
This is the first time he serves as a director and participates in the filming and production of a movie. Jiang Yuan also specially brought his own camera to record some behind-the-scenes footage of the filming process.
Looking at the first photo of this trip on the screen, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.
The flight arrived at the destination smoothly, and Jiang Yuan and others also changed into coats according to the local temperature difference.
After leaving the airport, Jiang Yuan and his group also met many fans who were picking them up.
There is no airtight itinerary, although the flight information of Jiang Yuan and others has not been exposed.
However, in order to prepare for filming, many staff members arrived at the location in advance to make preparations.
These news inevitably spread to the Internet and attracted the attention of fans.
Wrapping up their coats, even though the temperature dropped sharply, Jiang Yuan and others still preferred this kind of weather to the hot weather.
Or maybe everyone wants to cool down quickly when the weather is hot, and wants to warm up as soon as possible after the weather is cold.
At the moment, this city with an unusual climate is not in Jiang Yuan's tour plan.
Local fans rarely have the opportunity to meet Jiang Yuan.
So although there weren't many people coming to the airport, it still created a lively atmosphere.
Jiang Yuan just got off the plane and responded to the fans' warm greetings and shouts as much as possible.
After landing, Jiang Yuan and others were the first to go to the hotel to check in.
There was still a long way to go from the city to the real shooting location, so everyone decided to take a rest before setting off.
"Do you have a clue about the filming of the first scene?" While having dinner, or supper, Jiang Yuan and Shang Yan'er got together.
There is nothing to avoid suspicion, after all, the two of them had traveled alone before when they were recording "Yu Yu Hui".
Right now, because of the filming of the movie, we need to spend most of our time together.
"I'm not sure how to express that emotion." Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's question, Shang Yan'er shook her head.
This time the filming of the movie was based on a narrative approach with a different timeline, so Jiang Yuan did not plan to shoot in the order that He Jing strictly followed the script.
If you continue to follow that method, you won't even have time to change the actor's appearance, not to mention the time and cost involved.
Therefore, Jiang Yuan also plans to shoot according to the stories of two different timelines.
The first thing to prepare for filming was the timeline after the character Fujii Shu died. The first scene, which is the opening of the movie, is the scene where the heroine rises from the snow.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The famous scene in the classic movie poster also comes from this scene.
Knowing this, even if Shang Yan'er studied acting seriously and pondered the script, she was still not very sure about this scene.
"It doesn't matter, I'm the director anyway."
"When the time comes, just listen to my instructions and feel more. Maybe when you get to the set, your emotions will come naturally." Jiang Yuan comforted Shang Yan'er.
"And it was like this when I first started filming. I was..." In order to relax Shang Yan'er, Jiang Yuan also shared the situation when he first tried filming.
The rest time passed by in a hurry, and early the next morning, the entire crew set out for the small town where the filming was taking place.
The journey is long, but fortunately the scenery is beautiful. Looking out the car window from time to time makes me feel a lot better.
The thought of filming a movie in such scenery in the next period also raises more expectations.
After arriving at the filming location and settling in, the film's opening ceremony was completed that afternoon under the auspices of Wang Wen and others.
Fu Yunshen and others have to be more experienced in this area, and a few others can be considered sympathetic to Jiang Yuan who has so much work to do.
Some non-essential tasks were also taken over, which made Jiang Yuan breathe a sigh of relief.
The power-on ceremony went smoothly, no different from what Jiang Yuan had participated in before.
The biggest difference may be that Jiang Yuan's identity and the environment of the boot ceremony have become different.
The power-on ceremony was completed, and many videos and photos were taken and recorded.
The video was temporarily saved, but a few of the photos were selected and uploaded to the film's official blog account, which had just been certified. It was also revealed to fans that the film had officially started filming.
If nothing else, this should be the last update on the official blog before the movie is completed.
During the official filming process, information such as Reuters will not be actively released through the official account to avoid affecting the audience's perception of the movie after it is released.
The opening ceremony was successfully held. That night, Jiang Yuan, Fu Yunqing and others, as well as Shang Yan'er and other leading actors, also sat around and started reading the script.
After Jiang Yuan's hard work during this period, the movie script has a relatively complete final version.
By reading the script, everyone can have a deeper understanding of the story itself and their respective characters.
Except for Shang Yan'er, all those present were very experienced actors in this aspect.
The atmosphere of the whole script reading meeting was very good, and Jiang Yuan also participated quite a lot.
An important piece of news that was not disclosed at the film's launch conference is not a secret among the leading actors.
In addition to Shang Yan'er playing two roles by herself, Jiang Yuan also participated in this movie with one person playing two roles.
This is a character that has never been revealed at the press conference, which makes some fans who have read the original work feel strange.
Hiroko Watanabe later found Jiang Yuan and planned to star in the movie herself as Wan Wan Lei Qing.
It's just that I will make a big change in the makeup, so that the two characters will look quite different.
As a result, Jiang Yuan's participation in the movie has increased.
During the entire script meeting, Jiang Yuan and Shang Yan'er also occupied the largest number of speeches.
During this process, Shang Yan'er also demonstrated her excellent line skills as a musical actor.
In the dialogue and narration of the actors, a complete story was also deconstructed and flowed in the hearts of all the creative staff on this night.
It is clear that the time spent reading the script is not too long and will not exceed the time of one movie.
But everyone seemed to have truly spent a long time with the characters in the story.
At the moment it ended, everyone had an intuitive feeling that the movie seemed to be finished.
Until he was about to take a break, Fu Yunshen was still sending messages to Jiang Yuan, saying that he felt that the crew this time was different from his previous filming.
It seemed that some kind of soul had been condensed, and a wave of news bombarded Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan replied to several messages and found that he couldn't reply at all, so he simply chose to ignore them. He just hoped that after the filming officially started, Fu Yunshen could channel his enthusiasm into the production of the movie.
Since the next day was the official shooting day, everyone rested very early to recharge their batteries and prepare for the first scene.
Jiang Yuan had previously thought that he would be too excited to fall asleep easily. With this in mind, he went to bed early and the time it took to fall asleep was unexpectedly fast.
After a dreamless night, Jiang Yuan arrived at the set early in good spirits.
The entire crew is composed of many staff members, which can be regarded as a huge organization. They arrived at the scene early and started operating in an orderly manner.
As a director, Jiang Yuan also took the initiative to greet the staff of various departments and confirmed the details before starting to put on makeup and styling.
Before the shooting started, everyone prepared for a long time.
Jiang Yuan also specially walked up to the photographer and asked the photographer to demonstrate the camera and express the kind of lens feel he wanted.
Then I found Shang Yan'er who had already done her hair and changed into clothes.
Jiang Yuan was already amazed when he saw Shang Yan'er's makeup photos, which showed a big change from his usual image.
In Fu Yunshen's words, just by looking at this look, she has the temperament of a heroine in a literary film.
Jiang Yuan thought it was somewhat appropriate.
When he came to Shang Yan'er, Jiang Yuan also explained to Shang Yan'er the psychology of the character who would be filming the scene later.
After analyzing Shang Yan'er from a psychological level, Jiang Yuan was still worried that it would be too abstract, so after thinking about it, he just lay down on the snow and gave Shang Yan'er a personal demonstration.
After explaining everything that needed to be explained throughout the scene, Jiang Yuan relaxed and sat in front of the monitor.
Looking at the typing screen on the screen, Jiang Yuan took a deep breath and picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand, "'Love Letter', first scene, first shot, action!"
This was the first time he shouted this, but Jiang Yuan had already simulated it many times in his mind.
In addition to cameras capturing what Jiang Yuan saw, there were also studio employees holding cameras to help Jiang Yuan record this moment.
Jiang Yuan didn't notice anything and just stared at the screen attentively.
Looking at the movements and expressions shown by the photographer and Shang Yan'er, they all fit the picture expected in my mind.
Although it was Shang Yan'er's first time to perform in front of the camera, Jiang Yuan's instructions just now were obviously well digested and showed in front of the camera.
In the snow, the scene of Shang Yan'er standing up, slightly raising her head and closing her eyes was captured by the camera, and Jiang Yuan could not help but clench his hands.
Then he showed a bright smile and shouted "Ka".
It’s done. Just looking at the picture, Jiang Yuan felt that both this shot and the movie poster were complete at this moment.
The first shot of filming was successfully completed in the snow, and the subsequent filming began to proceed as planned.
