(ps: Today’s update is almost too slow. I’m thinking of gradually resuming daily updates, but it makes me tired!)
In the film room and on the screen on the editing table, more than twenty hours of footage of "Train to Busan" have been cut and rough cut during this period to complete the preliminary improvement of the plot structure and the allocation of footage.
Classified, the silent scene moved slowly over time, and finally settled on the warm shot of the zombies meeting Sung Yuri and Kim Soo-an (the proud daughter), rushing forward like a stream on the rocks, and the two remaining people looking up at the sky.
The angle of the camera changed from an overhead shot to an upward shot, allowing the sunlight to fall right on the two people, creating a backlighting and shadow color effect. The light ratio and color matching seemed to draw a rainbow after the rain in the eyes of the two people.
The five people in the booth, including Lin Chengxun and Zhang Dongjian, stared at the screen without blinking. They all looked tired, but their eyes were full of excitement that could not be concealed.
I don’t know how many years have passed in the film room. Lin Chengxun and Jang Dongjian are okay. They don’t stay in the film room day and night for editing work like the other people. They just come early and come back late. Apart from the tiredness on their faces, they don’t have anything special. Zhang Dongjian is still the same
The fengshen and handsome Peninsula male god, Lim Sung-hoon is still the diamond king in the Peninsula directing world.
But the rest of the people were different. There were visible earwax and food stains on their clothes. Even the slim editor with long hair had his beautiful long hair stiffened. Lin Chengxun suspected that he could knock it on with his hands.
It will make a "bang bang" sound.
But even so, the editing work of "Train to Busan" will continue. After the initial cut and rough cut, there will be re-cut and the final cut to determine the release effect. Unlike TV series, movies only need initial cut, rough cut and re-check.
In order to achieve the review effect for release, the final cut, also commonly known as the final edit, is the top priority.
Lin Sung-hoon is also one of the few Peninsula directors who has final editing rights. Although Peninsula's final editing rights are not as precious as those in Hollywood, it is also the watershed between first-class directors and big-name directors.
Of course, due to the special investment environment of Lin Sung-hoon's "Train to Busan", he did not get the absolute final editing rights and needed to compromise for the investors. Ultimately, for the sake of commercial value, the director's cut of "Train to Busan" will definitely be released.
Blu-ray disc.
Zhang Dongjian frowned as he looked at the final warm-colored shot on the screen. After this period of editing (editing) work, he has benefited a lot, whether it is the film structure of "Train to Busan" or
It was the understanding of the plot and story that refreshed his outlook on life.
But now he has a question. A whole page full of cold shots ends with an obviously warm shot. Will this be too abrupt and cause discomfort to the moviegoers?
Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and asked his question directly.
"Discomfort in terms of perception? Warm-colored lens." The man with long, flowing hair and a full head of tangled hair raised his greasy, bumpy face and glanced at this public property of the peninsula, and said "Hey" with disdain.
Even if the takeaway you ordered during this period is delicious, you can eat the food indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately.
This playful snort hit Zhang Dongjian in the face, but he swallowed it abruptly.
In the film industry, no matter how high an actor's status is, it is difficult to compare with a well-known director. And no matter which country's film industry, top editors are always scarce, even rarer than top directors. It can even be said that one
Top editors can even completely affect a movie's status in film history, such as Walter Murch's "The Godfather" trilogy, "Apocalypse Now", and Guy Ritchie's "Two Smoking Barrels"
”, the latter’s narrative structure deeply influenced filmmakers in the following years.
The status of top editors in the film industry is evident.
So even if Jang Dong Gun is so famous in Peninsula, he has to bear this ridicule.
"Don't just look at the camera images, but combine the shot structure, plot and story, as well as the emotion of the scene. What is this superficially warm shot about?" Lin Chengxun coughed a few times to help Zhang Dongjian, and then explained in a persuasive manner,
Sometimes it is a great sense of satisfaction to be able to reveal all the painstaking efforts in one's works to others.
Zhang Dongjian stared at the frozen picture on the screen for a long time without blinking, but his eyes were still foggy. Warm-colored lenses are warm-colored lenses. Could it be that if he watched it twice more, the temperature would cool down?
Lin Chengxun still agreed with Zhang Dongjian's nature that if he understands, he understands, and if he doesn't understand, he doesn't know how to ask directly, so he stopped trying to keep it secret and explained to Zhang Dongjian:
"The sound montage of gunshots is not shown, and the scene you see now of the sun rising is certainly colorful and full of warmth, but what about the plot of the movie at this point? The sun still rises, even if it is only shining
ruins."
The sun will still rise, even if it only shines on the ruins!
Zhang Dongjian chewed these words in his mouth, and his eyes were as distracted as those editors wished. He even thought more about how the major events in the Peninsula entertainment industry were during the filming of "Train to Busan".
It ended in a ridiculous way, the suicide was not a suicide, the witnesses disappeared, the evidence disappeared, the case was postponed, but so what, the sun still rose the next day, but the dead people could never live again, and even
The truth cannot be revealed.
The sun still rises, shining on the ruins.
Zhang Dongjian fell silent. He had always thought that it was ridiculous to feel the same way. Unless the needle pricked him, he wouldn't know how painful it was. But now, infinite sadness emerged in his heart.
"Still warm?"
"Cold, bone-chilling cold." Zhang Dongjian opened his mouth and replied, pulling on his collar irritably and gasping for air.
"Hey!" The greasy face with long hair chuckled again. He squinted his eyes and looked at the rainbow in the eyes of the two people on the screen. In his own words, this was the scene. Lin Chengxun played it very coolly.
It feels like the whole scene is like Lin Sung-hoon, the main creator of the movie, hiding under this colorful sky, looking at the ignorant person on the other side of the camera with a cold smile on his lips, laughing loudly, mocking wantonly, turning the movie into the palm of his hand
Hit them hard in the face, and feel very happy in my heart!
It is precisely because this "Train to Busan" does not have a sense of ritual shots, but is full of a strong sense of ritual, that he agreed to be Lin Chengxun's deputy in his professional field, and poured his greatest passion into it.
Enthusiasm for work.
"Okay, let's all take a good rest in the next few days. I happen to be busy with something. Of course, I don't mind if you all volunteer to work overtime." Lin Chengxun smiled and took the lead in opening the door of the pull-out room and walking out.
