In fact, compared to "Buried Alive", "127 Hours" is much more troublesome despite what Li Yi said, but in fact, it also depends on who is doing it.
After all, Li Yi works with top photographers, so that's no problem.
Of course, "Buried Alive" can be said to be a typical, small space, one-man show.
After the speech, Mu Qingqing and Li Bin each gathered a few classmates and began to save the script.
However, in comparison, "Buried Alive" actually has higher requirements for actors and is more difficult to shoot.
Because the space of "Buried Alive" is in an extremely small and confined space, it is definitely a huge challenge for the actors.
"127 Hours" has prototype characters in another world, and at least it was shot in a place with a relatively wide field of view.
Not like "Buried Alive"!
Soon, Li Bin and Mu Qingqing came up with the first draft of the script.
Li Yi will definitely compare it with the original version. It has to be said that the original version may have shortcomings of one kind or another, but it is indeed not something that these newcomers can compare with.
Therefore, Li Yi marked some key points, comments on revisions, etc., and then called them back to ask them to revise again.
In fact, it is normal in the film and television industry for a script to go through multiple revisions before being finalized. On the contrary, it is rare for someone like Li Yi to take it out directly and shoot it without any modifications.
As time goes by, the revisions of the two scripts are getting closer and closer to the version in Li Yi's memory. Of course, this must have a lot to do with Li Yi deliberately pointing in that direction. Although it is not a complete reproduction,
But the background and the like have been changed almost completely.
In fact, this is also a helpless move.
For example, "Buried Alive", it's really difficult to shoot it in a background like the mainland or Hong Kong Island.
In mainland China, to be honest, with a story background like "Buried Alive", even Li Yi couldn't get the script to pass the review smoothly.
And if those things are missing, the story will have big logical holes.
Therefore, it was eventually placed abroad.
By the same token, compared with the response speed of domestic alarm calls, there is indeed a big gap in this aspect abroad.
It is more in line with the setting of the movie.
As for "127 Hours", it is more suitable for local adaptation.
The result was no surprise, "127 Hours" took the lead in completing the script.
The crew and investment are endorsed by Li Yi, so the early preparations can be said to be a big gift from Li Yi to the new students.
If they were to make the preliminary preparations themselves, I'm afraid it would take an unknown amount of time.
It's different when it comes to Li Yi's team. It's just like using cannons to kill mosquitoes.
The male lead in "127 Hours" actually had some requirements. Li Bin wanted to invite Xu Hao, a famous domestic actor, to play the role. The reason is that Xu Hao himself is also a rock climbing enthusiast.
Although it is not necessary for an actor to have experience in this field to play such a role, at least if an actor has experience in this field, the performance will definitely be more natural.
If Li Bin invited it himself, Xu Hao might not be able to invite it due to Xu Hao's current status in the country. However, knowing that this was a work directed by Li Yi with a junior newcomer, Xu Hao directly accepted it without saying anything.
As a result, "127 Hours" started filming very quickly, while on the other hand, the script for "Buried Alive" had just been completed.
In comparison, the preliminary preparations for "Buried Alive" were much simpler, and the filming phase quickly entered.
But the difficulty of shooting is not the least bit difficult. The most important thing is how to move the camera in a confined space!
As a result, Li Bin took the lead in completing the filming of "127 Hours" in just one month, and with Li Yi directing the script, he avoided a lot of detours, so the subsequent editing also saved a lot of trouble.
On the other hand, "Buried Alive" is still being filmed in a bumpy way.
Beijing Film Academy!
"127 Hours" is the "graduation work" of the film school students, so the first screening was also held in the school.
Of course, this time we also invited some media and professional film critics to watch the movie together.
At the same time, students, teachers and leaders from the Beijing Film Academy were also present.
As the film's producer and investor, Li Yi will naturally not be absent.
In fact, the promotion of "127 Hours" has already started. Since Li Yi wants to support his juniors and juniors, he must be a good person and do it to the end. In this regard, he only talks about it.
For this reason, although the cost is not high, the attention is not low.
In fact, although "127 Hours" is a low-budget film and the work of a new director, no one dares to underestimate it, especially in theaters. Although it does not have the treatment of a blockbuster, it is still a relatively good film schedule.
But the details still depend on the upcoming debut!
"I heard that the idea for this movie was discussed with the students when Director Li gave a lecture at the college?" a media person asked curiously.
"Yes, not only this one, but also another one currently being filmed, "Buried Alive," was also a story that was born during that speech." The insider said.
"Tsk, tsk, Li Yi really stepped on the horse and gave him a ride! He did it all in one step! If this movie is successful, the enrollment of Beijing Film Academy this year will probably explode again!" You Zhongxi over there
The person is sour and down to earth.
"You can't favor one over the other. Let Director Li also give a lecture at our Chinese opera. Our Chinese opera is not bad at all!" said another teacher of the Chinese opera.
"How can it be that easy? The Beijing Film Academy is his alma mater, but it took many invitations before he was invited. Moreover, our acting department at China Theater Academy is not worried about not having good actors, but the directing department..."
"However, with this movie, it seems that Director Li Yi is setting a benchmark for new domestic directors."
"Who says otherwise? It is said that there is only one starring role, and the other actors' roles are very few. This kind of movie is indeed very suitable for new directors!"
"..."
Soon, the lights in the entire screening room dimmed.
Pictures began to appear on the big screen.
Li Bin's version of "127 Hours" is definitely different from the original.
And it has been adapted locally.
The opening hasn't changed much, it's still a message, and it still doesn't reveal too much.
Soon, the male protagonist played by Xu Hao packed up his tools and set off in his car.
He took a selfie with his mobile phone, and a "dangerous area" appeared in the lens. Entry is prohibited. Trespassing at your own risk!
But the male protagonist was not moved at all and even took out his mobile phone to take a selfie.
There was music playing in the car, and he looked into the camera of his mobile phone: "I just entered the canyon area. I was alone, listening to the music and enjoying the night! I was in a good mood!"
The car was driving on a rugged road, and soon he arrived at his destination. Someone had already set up a tent and lit a fire. Obviously, he was not the only one who had this idea.
The male protagonist played by Xu Hao spent the night in the car and set off on a mountain bike early the next morning.
Along the way, the scenery is infinitely beautiful!
Finally he arrived at his destination.
began his hiking adventure.
After taking only a few steps, he saw two female explorers.
However, through dialogue, the audience knows that they are actually lost and are not here to explore.
Xu Hao volunteered and offered to take them to their destination.
However, Xu Hao took them to take a shortcut, but there was only one disadvantage, that is, they had to cross the cracks in the rock wall.
The two girls were eager to try, and finally decided to try to cross the rock wall.
"You can bring us to a place like this and still say whether you are a professional?" one of the girls named Li Mei couldn't help complaining.
"No, actually I am an engineer, but my dream is to climb mountains and reach peaks!" Xu Hao said.
"Haha, that's great. My dream is to be a star. I also want my dream to come true!" Li Mei said while climbing hard.
"What if these rocks move?"
"They've been there for millions of years and won't move!" another girl said.
"It's very possible!" Xu Hao said.
"What?" Li Mei looked stunned.
"Really, there has been geological activity. I can only pray that the stone will not move today!" Xu Hao continued.
"Are you ready?" Xu Hao suddenly stopped and asked.
"As long as you remember one thing, everything will be fine!" After saying that, he let go and slid down towards the gap in the rock wall!
The two girls were so frightened that they screamed!
"Alan, are you okay?"
"what to do?"
The camera showed the male protagonist Allen played by Xu Hao. When he slipped to the bottom, he dived directly into the water and then swam upward.
When he surfaced, he shouted excitedly.
Hearing his voice, the two girls also breathed a sigh of relief.
He even sang a song down there, and both girls thought this was crazy.
"Come on, believe me, come down and take a look!" Xu Hao shouted from the lake in the canyon.
"Believe you? I'm going to kill you! Oh my god!?" Li Mei couldn't help but said.
"Forget it, let's give it a try!" said her companion Chen Ou.
Then she let go first and slid down the crack in the rock wall.
After emerging from the water, she was also pleasantly surprised. Apparently this was the first time she had seen such a beautiful scenery.
She immediately called her companions to come down.
After coming down, they even wanted to do it again.
I also plan to take pictures with my mobile phone.
Because this experience, this situation, this scene, is simply amazing.
In fact, at this moment, many viewers couldn't help but marvel, and some even asked: "Where was this filmed? Isn't it so awesome?"
They quickly did it again and again and filmed it.
Xu Hao did not lie to them. He quickly had enough fun here and everyone left this wonderful place.
Head towards their destination.
Before parting, the three of them took a photo together.
Added each other as friends!
Then he once again embarked on an adventure alone.
Along the way, he took many photos and walked through the canyon walls.
However, the accident still happened.
While climbing, a stone came loose and fell. His right forearm was pressed by the boulder and he could not move!
The camera gave him a close-up of his face. He looked at his right hand that was caught between the boulder and the mountain wall, with a confused look on his face.
At this time, the camera showed his arm being suppressed, and the title of the film also appeared at this time, "127 Hours!"
He tried to move the stone away, but the boulder was trapped in the rock wall and could not move at all.
He wanted to pull his hand out, but he couldn't do it even with all his strength!
At this time, the audience in the theater was also stunned.
Because, to be honest, many people found the first few minutes of this movie a little confusing.
At first two girls showed up, thinking something would happen, but then nothing happened, and he went on the road alone again.
So when the accident happened, the audience was briefly stunned for two seconds. They didn't expect the accident to happen so suddenly.
Xu Hao tried all directions and methods, pushing, pulling, bumping, and dragging, but the boulder still remained motionless.
In desperation, he even hit the boulder with his body over and over again, but everything was in vain.
"grass!"
"Horse rider!"
"Get out of here!"
...
Words of national curses came out of his mouth, and as time passed, he gradually began to become a little manic.
Here, the sky and the sky are not responding, and the earth and the earth are not working.
Although you can see the sky when you look up, you can only see a small patch of sky!
Suddenly he thought of those two girls, who might not be able to go far, and started shouting the names of the two girls just now while looking up to the sky.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But the only response to him was an echo.
Confidence no longer exists, there is only despair!
After calming down again, he took out all the things he had on him and placed them one by one on the boulder in front of him.
Trying to find a way to save myself.
The first thing he thought of was his mobile phone!
But when I took out my phone, I found that there was no signal at all!
He couldn't help but cursed the operator!
The audience below couldn't help but complain: "Didn't you say you can make emergency calls even if you don't have a signal?"
"You're wrong. You can make emergency calls without a card on your phone, but it's really cold without a signal!"
"so?"
"certainly!"
"Then isn't he really completely cool? But, wouldn't there be no signal at all in a place like this?"
"It's normal. Do you think the operator is really that awesome? This kind of place is deserted all year round. Who would set up a base station here?"
At the same time, in the picture, Xu Hao looked at the things in front of him.
He picked up a multifunctional knife.
Little by little, he chipped away at the giant piece that was in contact with his stuck right hand, trying to use a knife to create a little gap.
However, after trying for a long time, my hands were extremely sore, but it was of no use at all.
As a result, the house leaked and it rained all night, so the knife accidentally fell down!
The knife fell, and Xu Hao was confused again. He couldn't help but cursed again: "Fuck!"
But at this moment, there is no point in complaining.
The knife can be said to be his only life-saving straw at the moment.
He illuminated it with a flashlight, then used a climbing rope to hook up the knife with great effort, and began to continue chipping away at the stone.
However, it had little effect because the broken knife was too dull.
After working on it for a long time, I couldn't cut much at all.
