In the warehouse where everything has been arranged, small searchlights are lighting up in the depths, and the lighting engineer is lighting up.
The guy in a suit and ties with his hair crossed crossed his legs and sat with his back to the searchlight. Behind him, to the left, to the left, and in front of him were all the younger guys in suits and ties who were in a state of preparation.
Chen Baixiang sat in a chair and was tied up, silent and waiting to act.
The operator grabbed a piece of film in a hidden bag, put it into the film box with a little trembling skillfully, left a loop, and loaded the film into the camera for testing.
Johnnie To and Sir Du are using the viewfinder to check the scenery and lighting in the shot.
Cheng Xiaodong and Sir Cheng re-examined the artificial scenery at the scene, such as the opening scene of forcing a confession, the scene of pouring props and cement, and Ah Cheng standing outside the warehouse taking cigarettes and posing.
While he was posing, on the other side, the boys were taking the cement buckets to the elevator, pulling them out of the warehouse and putting them on the ship. Then in the sea breeze at night, the freighter started to sail, riding the wind and waves... All of them were in suits and leather shoes or white shirts, black
Boys with ties walked on the deck and pushed cement buckets into the sea.
The scene of the cement bucket being lowered into the sea and hitting the water surface must be shot with an underwater camera to make it more visual and impactful.
When filming, it would only be a bucket filled with heavy objects, but what is shown in the post-production cuts is to force a confession, fill the cement, put the bucket into the boat, roll the bucket and throw it into the sea, with water splashes filling the air.
Ah Cheng, played by Zhou Runfa, is cold and cold-blooded throughout the whole process, showing the coolness, sharpness and cruelty of the ruthless brother in his small emotions.
If you want to play the kind of person who has no regard for human life and tramples on the law and the world, the smaller the gestures and the "big eyes", the more shocking the performance will be.
For a good actor, explosive power is crucial.
In The King of Comedy, Yin Tianchou rehearses the script with Du Juan'er in his arms, crying and reciting his lines while having big snot dripping on Du Juan'er's face. It's an explosive force, but not many people can act well with nonsensical aura. The Hong Kong film and television industry has tried many times to cultivate a successor to Xing Zai, but has been unable to do so.
Liang Chaowei, the undercover agent in the original Infernal Affairs, saw that everything was bright and he was about to usher in a new life, but he was shot in the head by A Dong. Even without the soundtrack, the explosive power of his eyes was very good.
That's the eye scene that's close to a static explosion.
Zhao Donghuai grabbed the big speaker and walked to the side of Fa Zai who was sitting on the chair with his legs crossed. He smiled and said, "Afa, you have been preparing for a month or two. The smaller the range of your body movements for the explosive power of the opening scene, the better."
, the dynamic burst is also very expressive."
“But it’s better to make it more appealing and vivid in recent years.”
When an actor performs an angry scene, throwing a cup or smashing the TV are all dynamic outbursts. The audience can easily feel your anger from these actions and know that you are losing your temper. However, this kind of outburst is far inferior to ordinary walking and sitting quietly.
, showing a look that wants to kill someone, which is more profound and intense.
Ah Fa immediately put away Erlang's legs and stood up, laughing sarcastically, "Director...director...I..."
Zhao Donghuai frowned, "You are the eldest brother, a eldest brother who is ruthless and unscrupulous in accomplishing his goals. Even your boss, Uncle Pei, was afraid that you were too ruthless, so he arranged for your confidants and wife to be undercover agents to monitor you.
”
"You can't do it in such a panic."
Zhou Runfa, "..."
Those who don’t know think that the director is telling the story carefully??
Zhao Donghuai said again, "Come on, come on, the first scene of the new play, I invested 5 million, real money. Although making money is not that difficult, don't let it get stuck when you start it. Too many lines are unlucky."<
/p>
After saying that, he patted Ah Fa on the shoulder and went to tell Guan Lijie, Zhou Xingxing, Liu Qingyun and others.
He only has one request: you are the little guys who are part-timers, you must be handsome when you stand, and you must be cool when you go, clean up the society's insiders, fight for the acquittal of the big leader, and perform with a ruthless and fierce flavor.
If you do it well, you will achieve great success and the big leader will be happy. Ding Qing (Wan Ziliang), who appears to be ranked third, is actually the biggest competitor for the next leader, the better.
Hello, big brother, you have a bright future.
Immerse yourself in it, and the purpose of doing things is to get a promotion and a salary increase, win wealth and beauty, and reach the pinnacle of life!
When one person attains enlightenment, a chicken or a dog ascends to heaven.
Even if you are playing a chicken or a dog, you still have to create a flavor.
After a while, after rehearsing without turning on the camera, Zhao Donghuai sat behind the optical viewfinder, glanced left and right, and gestured to the scene staff.
The scene manager decisively took the drawing board and said, "Shot No. 1 in the first scene, first time, Aikesh!"
"Pa!"
With the sound of Aikesh and the clapboard, the actors who were originally stationary came to life one after another, and the cameras on the track also came to life.
Chen Baixiang, the opera spirit, possessed him and screamed. This scream was the scream of someone who had been tied up and his mouth sealed... He had eight points of the charm of the previous performance and teaching by Mr. Hong Scorpion. Old Chen is a good actor. The camera only focused on Chen Baixiang after screaming for a second.
What follows is a close-up of the actor showing his face. In the close-up, Mr. Chen is screaming, struggling, and looking miserable in a special costume. We are not worried that he has the comedy atmosphere of being beaten by Wu Sangui in Xing Zai's version of The Deer and the Cauldron.
During the struggle, an over-the-shoulder shot moved from Chen Baixiang's face to his shoulders, and then to the second actor, a close-up of Zhou Xingxing, who was wearing a white shirt, a black tie, his hair parted three-quarters, and his hair combed back.
At this moment, the relationship, location, identity and other backgrounds of each other can be determined through the language of the camera. In the future, the audience will know after watching the camera that Chen Baixiang was kidnapped and abused, and Xingzi was the perpetrator.
While Xingzai played his fingernails with one hand impatiently, he glanced at Chen Baixiang coldly, turned around, and the camera also moved with Xingzai's line of sight. In the distance, he was sitting under the searchlight, with his back to the light and his face blurred.<
/p>
On the left and right, there are eight people in black suits or white shirts, standing straight or with slightly slanted legs. Their faces are all blurred under the searchlight. Wu Zhenyu is standing sideways, and his younger brother is taking out a cigarette.
When Lao Wu came, Xingzi stepped back with a hammer.
Wu Zhenyu stood in front of Chen Baixiang, whose face was covered with blood and swelling, and slapped him, then squatted down, took out a cigarette, and calmly lit it, "Director Cui,..."
At this moment, one of the two small searchlights behind Afa and others suddenly went out!
Wu Zhenyu is still reciting his lines and continues.
Zhao Donghuai grabbed the big speaker fiercely, "Click!!"
Does turning off the lights have a big impact? Two small searchlights can clearly reflect each person's body shape and standing posture, but the face is a bit blurry in the black shadow. If one light is turned off, most of them will be black. p>
What about the overall picture effect shown in the camera? Nowadays it is all film, and it can only be seen after it is developed later.
But I also want to know what kind of sudden deviation in the style of painting it will be.
With two lamps lighting like this, what Zhao Donghuai wants is a cold, dark temperament, and one...
For lighting, each scene must measure the light brightness, color temperature, etc., and then the art director plans the style, temperament, etc. of the film and slowly discusses them.
A group of actors who were concentrating and concentrating all relaxed one after another, and all of them broke away from their state, and then?
Zhao Donghuai stared at the lighting team, a lighting engineer also commonly known as the lighting master, and two assistants, and stared at them for two minutes.
When the atmosphere became more and more depressing, he smiled and said, "Uncle Zhong, right? Many people call you Master Zhong, the old lighting engineer of Shaw Brothers..."
"I've said it before. If you have any opinions, you can raise them. I'm a reasonable person."
Deng Ye Zhong pointed around excitedly, wanting to explain, but the more anxious he became, the less sure he knew what to say.
It's all a misunderstanding, and it must be an oversight.
Even if he wanted to test something and look for an opportunity to steal money, this would not be the time to do it. It would not be him doing anything. The easiest way to test and break through would be to use props directly.
