Chapter 197 "Gravity" Lighting Settings

"You mean, let me let her go? What about what she did to me?" Zhang Hao was slightly angry.

He is pretending, he is not angry at all, he is just putting pressure on the visitor.

The visitor seemed to have been prepared: "As compensation, we will give away part of the property worth tens of millions. I heard that the old man likes calligraphy and painting very much. I have Zhang Daqian's paintings here, which can be given to the old man."

Zhang Hao then put down his angry face and softened his expression: "This is okay, but she cannot escape the punishment of the law and must be brought to justice."

"Don't worry, if she does such a scandal, we certainly won't protect her, and we can't. The evidence is conclusive," the person said.

"That's fine, I won't pursue the case. From now on, everyone can live in peace and don't provoke me for no reason." Zhang Hao agreed to the terms of the visitor.

Everyone got the result they wanted. The people there compensated Zhang Hao, and Zhang Hao gave up suing Mrs. Chen. The bottom line was that Mrs. Chen could not escape unscathed.

As for Chen Gege, he is still useful to the people there, but the people there don't want him to die. The reason why Zhang Hao is not allowed to prosecute is also because of this.

This was actually obtained by Mrs. Chen. In fact, she and Chen Gege started to play this game when the couple started to have conflicts.

The purpose was to separate Chen Gege and her children from herself, and she targeted them many times. She found that the previous methods of dealing with insiders did not work on young people like Zhang Hao.

They are not the same way of playing, nor are they the same system.

What is the system? To put it bluntly, it means abiding by the unspoken rules in the industry. At least as a woman who is a big director, you have to play, right?

But Zhang Hao is so innocent that he doesn't look like someone who works in the entertainment industry. He is so clean that he can't catch anything. Previously, he had secretly stumbled and drugged Zhang Hao in order to make Zhang Hao no longer clean.

Only by bringing Zhang Hao to the same moral level as himself can he use his rich experience to defeat him.

After many failed attempts, Mrs. Chen had already anticipated today's outcome, and then made these arrangements. She made clear cuts and preserved Chen Gege and her son, so that there would still be a future.

The day finally came, Mrs. Chen thought that bitch Zhang Yu should be proud because her son finally got her in.

In a private club somewhere in the capital, several big shots waved the women in their arms to get out.

"I have already talked with Zhang Hao, and he agreed to those conditions."

"That's good. We'll arrange for a lawyer to defend Mrs. Chen later. Remember, remind Mrs. Chen not to expose all those things."

"Understood, I will tell her."

There was silence in the room for a while, and then another person said: "We used to think that Zhang Hao was stupid and took the initiative to jump out of this circle and not play with us.

Now it seems that I have foresight!"

"The world is no longer ours now. With the entry of Internet media and capital, our right to speak is now much less."

"No matter what, we must not forget our contribution to the cultural world and the literary and art world. Everyone should eat and drink, and don't worry too much."

Not to mention what these big shots thought, after Mrs. Chen was sued, the matter was officially confirmed, and then more inside stories came out.

As for the grievances between Zhang Hao and Chen Gezi and Mrs. Chen, and even the old stories between Mrs. Chen and Zhang Hao's mother Zhang Yu, they are true and false, and there are noses and eyes.

Anyway, Mrs. Chen finally got in.

Zhang Hao does not intend to continue to pursue Chen Gege. After all, Mrs. Chen has resisted the blame. If he continues to pursue the case, some big shots will inevitably be involved.

When enough was enough, everyone tacitly agreed to treat Mrs. Chen as an outcast and forget about it.

This matter is over, and any further worries will be matters later.

These chores did not affect Zhang Hao's progress in filming "Gravity" at all.

In October, Wu Jing finished filming "Wolf Warrior" and made a cameo appearance in "Gravity".

When he came to the set, Wu Jing, who thought he was well-informed, was completely dumbfounded. He was fascinated by the tall machines and various devices.

"What is this?" Wu Jing asked, pointing to the light box.

"This is a light box designed by Yuegong Studio, used to shoot some difficult weightless scenes." Zhang Hao led Wu Jing to visit the set, and then introduced:

“The people at Moon Palace Studio all came from Industrial Light and Magic, and the original prototype of this technology was proposed by Industrial Light and Magic director Tim Wade in 2004.

We made some improvements and used them on set."

In fact, after Zhang Hao made various techniques, the filming process became simpler and not difficult. The most important thing is the actors, that is, the state of great power.

However, there are a lot of close-ups in the film, and the reflections on her eyes and helmet must be carefully considered to avoid blurring.

Bai Xia and Zhang Hao said that in 2004, Tim Wade, who served as special effects director, envisioned such a technology: designing a room with LED screens in the front, back, left, and right, playing corresponding pictures.

, so that the image of light reflected in the eye can be obtained directly.

This idea was extended and eventually became the two major pieces of hardware for the visual effects of "Gravity":

One is a full LED screen shooting device light box, and the other is a large LED screen to solve the problem of light reflection.

The area of ​​​​the eye is very small, and the accuracy of the picture is not high, so a low-pixel LED screen can still ensure picture quality.

Moreover, this kind of image and light effect collection is not only used in the reflection of the eyeballs, but also in other mirror reflection places, such as the aerospace helmet worn by Da Mi Mi and Andy Lau.

After the visit, Wu Jing officially made a guest appearance, filming his half of the scene.

The reason why it is half a person is because Wu Jing did not show his face in the whole process and only had one or two lines.

However, just a few minutes of such a simple scene took the whole morning away. It was Wu Jing's first time filming this kind of scene, and he couldn't find the feeling. After all, he was not like the big power who had experienced the feeling of weightlessness.

Another issue is the lighting issue. Because of the lighting, the special effects department and the lighting department studied it all morning, and they didn’t find the best solution until just before the lunch boxes were distributed.

"When I come here now, all my eyes are filled with LED screens." Wu Jing and Zhang Hao and Andy Lau started to vomit while eating together.

"Brother Jing, you're doing pretty well. I've been filming for almost a month and it looks like this every day." Da Mi Mi placed a piece of braised pork in Zhang Hao's bowl.

She specifically asked the production team to ask the restaurant to cook some of Zhang Hao's favorite dishes, and braised pork was one of them.

Unlike Zhang Hao, who was more gentle when eating, Wu Jing showed off his macho and tough-guy style. He ate at a lightning speed, finishing a bowl of rice in just two or three bites.

"Have you finished eating? Can I get some more for you?" Da Mi Mi asked.

Wu Jing waved his hand and said, "No, I'm full."

Working with Zhang Hao, Da Mi Mi unconsciously took on the role of a good housewife, taking care of the crew. She is also a producer, so this is within her scope of work.

Although shooting is very tiring and hard, when Da Mi Mi looks at Zhang Hao's huge workload every day, he feels that the hard work he has done is nothing.

In order to reduce Zhang Hao's burden, Da Mi Mi will also consciously help Zhang Hao handle some trivial matters.

Zhang Hao is also happy to see the result. After all, it is impossible for a big power to be a leading actor for the rest of his life. When he gets old, he will probably have to retreat to the second line.

In contrast, a director can always be on the front line of creation. When Da Mi Mi doesn't want to be an actor in the future, he can also become a producer, or follow Guo Xiaosi's example and change his profession to become a director.

But Da Mi Mi is not very interested in the position of director, but is very talented in management.

After lunch, Zhang Hao continued to shoot the afternoon scenes. Wu Jing's guest appearance came to an end in the morning, but he did not leave. Instead, he decided to stay with Zhang Hao's crew for a few more days to learn.

Wu Jing is also a director himself. In 2009, he directed and starred in the action film "Spike", and also created the famous scene of one against a hundred.

Unfortunately, this movie was not very popular and did not achieve much response.

This time Wu Jing directs and stars in "Wolf Warrior" again. He deeply understands the importance of director's work and of course he has to learn from Zhang Hao, the best director in China.

"Although the filming of the film has been started for a month, because no one has experience in large-scale space science fiction film production, even the team I brought back from Hollywood is actually groping forward." While directing the film, Zhang Hao explained to Wu Jing, the curious baby.

.

"For example, the setting of space light sources includes three main light sources, distant hard sunlight, soft light reflected from the earth, and occasional reflected light from the moon."

"Is there so much emphasis on lighting when shooting a movie?" Wu Jing asked curiously.

Zhang Hao snapped his fingers and said: "This is the key to the problem, which is how to create a true and credible story.

Don’t underestimate the problem of light source, it allows the audience to enter the perspective of the protagonist more and achieve an immersive feeling.”

In fact, in space, people face complete darkness and can only see part of the sun, part of the earth, and occasionally the moon.

But if it were really shot and produced like this, there wouldn’t be much to attract the audience to watch the nearly 100-minute film.

Alfonso Cuaron simply provided a plan in his previous life, and Zhang Hao followed it, which was to constantly change the light source.

Therefore, the lighting engineer of the crew needs to constantly deal with the properties of light according to Duke's requirements. Is the light very hard or soft? What is the reflectivity? What is the color?

These seemingly small details can create many different environments and bring many different experiences.

Simply, the crew had the space agency and astronauts who had actually been in space as guidance, and designed a suitable lighting scheme for the overall environment.

The spacecraft orbits the Earth once every ninety minutes, which means astronauts can watch the sunrise and sunset every ninety minutes.

Different background colors on the earth will bring different effects. For example, in Africa, the red and yellow land of Africa brings soft light.

Above the ocean, there is cold-toned light.

In the actual shooting process, just setting up the light source is a very interesting task. Although the whole shooting process is tiring, it is not boring.
