Li Yu was very interested in such a thing, and immediately asked: "What kind of lens is more suitable for our movie? If you can shoot such a classic lens, you will be the first to do it." Yuan Heping shook his head and said: "It's hard to say the specifics. Chinese Kung Fu is now more and more accepted by the West. Therefore, at this time, there are very few Kung Fu that Westerners have not seen. We want to make it real." "The classic thing is to find an action shot that really makes Westerners shine, and then use the rainstorm editing method to make the whole shot have a strong visual impact." At this time, Yuan Heping mentioned a relatively unpopular editing technique. As a director of literary and artistic films, Li Yu had naturally rarely heard of this editing technique. He immediately asked: "Heavy Rain Editing Method" , what characteristics does it have, and how can it help our film?" Although he has never heard of this editing technique, what Li Yu is actually concerned about is that in such a situation, what kind of impact can it have on himself? How helpful is the movie? If it is helpful, then it is not impossible to use it. Yuan Heping explained: "To give a simple example, the same is true for heavy rains in nature. No matter how heavy a rainstorm is, its true state is not a continuous water column as seen by our eyes. The reason why heavy rain creates the feeling of continuous water columns falling from the sky is because our eyes have an innate "defect", which is "persistence of vision." It is our own eyes that connect the raindrops one by one. Therefore, we will use "heavy rain like pillars" to describe extremely heavy rain. Because in this kind of overwhelming rainstorm, we can't see the raindrops clearly at all. What we see are just countless rain pillars "hanging" between the sky and the earth. That kind of visual shock is the real powerful impact that people feel. A visceral shock. The editing of movies sometimes causes the psychological effect of "a heavy rain like pillars" on the audience, because the effect requires such a powerful shock, especially when it reaches a real climax, pay special attention to this point. Especially in Chinese martial arts action movies, brave and fierce fighting movements and fast and intensive editing will form a continuous torrent of visual images, causing a strong psychological impact on the audience. It's as if an invisible hand reaches out from the screen into the audience's heart, grabbing the audience's heart fiercely. War or disaster movies are sometimes a common technique. In action movies, we call this editing method "rainstorm editing" or "storm-style editing". That is to say, by minimizing the time and space distance between shots, the film makes the originally single and intermittent movie shots form a fast, complete and continuous image narrative chain. This "iconic" editing syntax is exactly the aesthetic style of Chinese martial arts action movies. Among kung fu movies, this is a style unique to our country’s movies. " As a famous martial arts instructor, Yuan Heping naturally has two skills, especially when it comes to action movies. Li Eucalyptus frowned and said, "That means you need a suitable classic lens to be able to use such editing techniques, right?" Naturally, if there are no action scenes, then on a question like this, it is actually more like a castle in the air, and there is nothing anyone can do.
Yuan Heping nodded and said: "That's right, but it takes a certain amount of time to design an action shot like this, and it needs to be the kind of action shot that Westerners accept. This is very difficult to grasp. Mr. Ye is also a kung fu master, so what are his views on such things. " Ye Ming's kung fu is better than his. Yuan Heping can tell this at a glance. An expert can tell if there is one as soon as he reaches out his hand. Ye Ming has actually been thinking about this issue. He even said that when he arrived at the shooting site just now, he took a moment to ask what the system was like, classics, and what kind of action scenes can connect things. Classic action shot. The system gave an answer [Permeability, classics need to be passed down and permeated. Even if it is Michael Jackson's space walk, it does not mean that he was the first to create it. It just means that Jackson himself summed up the experience of his predecessors and added it. Innovating by himself and then carrying it forward has become his signature move. Therefore, inheritance is very important. It is suggested that the shot of the protagonist Neo dodging bullets in The Matrix is a very classic shot, which at least makes people feel amazing. However, without inheritance, this seems to be a step forward to the shot of dodging bullets. This shot It seems a bit abrupt. It is recommended that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon use dodge bows and arrows. Luo Xiaohu dodges the overwhelming bows and arrows in an instant, and then directly overturns five official officers by one person, establishing the core position of the big bandit leader. 】 At this moment, the system simulated a scene for Ye Ming. Luo Xiaohu came galloping on horseback, dismounted, and when he walked in front of the crowd, he raised the scimitar in his hand to clean up the officials, but what greeted him was an overwhelming barrage of bows and arrows. At this time, Luo Xiaohu used evasive movements, avoiding the overwhelming barrage of bows and arrows, while dashing towards the official officer in a dashing way. At this moment, it was when Yuan Heping asked Ye Ming. Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his brow with his hand and said: "Actually, if you want to find a shot of a scenic spot, that's not to say there is no way. It just means that you can find it." It’s just a condition that runs through everything. As long as there is such a condition, the movie will have a strong sense of identity. Only when there is a sense of identity, the box office will naturally increase.” Yuan Heping is actually very clear about this method, but if he wants to find such a sense of identity, it cannot be found in a day or two. At this time, Yang Ziqiong said unceremoniously: "To put it nicely, it is not easy to find a sense of identity. Bruce Lee conquered the West with close combat, and Jackie Chan conquered the West with dare to fight and dare to fight." After conquering the West, the remaining people are still a little bit behind. If you haven’t been to Hollywood, you won’t realize how exclusive it is there.” Although Yang Ziqiong's words were a bit aimed at Ye Ming, she was actually right in her last sentence. Hollywood is a place that seems to be very free and open, but it is very hierarchical and has clear barriers. It would be very difficult to carve out a bloody path. Yang Ziqiong is someone who goes to Hollywood to shoot movies, so her views are relatively objective. In fact, Yang Ziqiong didn't believe that Ye Ming could come up with any good ideas at all, so he mocked Ye Ming unceremoniously. As for Zhang Ziyi, she actually thinks this matter is quite difficult. Yuan Heping has no solution. Can Ye Ming have any clever tricks? Doesn’t it mean that Ye Ming is superior to Ye Ming in terms of martial arts instruction? But after all, Zhang Ziyi felt that she wanted to act opposite Ye Ming. If she said she offended Ye Ming at this time, no matter what she said, it would be of no benefit to her. Therefore, even if Zhang Ziyi was not convinced by Ye Ming, she did not say anything. Ye Ming didn't seem to be angry because of Yang Ziqi's words, and said with a smile: "I'm not talking about this in general. Generally speaking, Hollywood looks down on any film company outside the United States, but I'm talking about a shot, as long as it's Say what you have done is good enough, and with this feeling that Westerners will recognize it, Western audiences will recognize it, and Hollywood will naturally recognize it. It is possible for Hollywood to do the right thing with anyone and any foreign film company, but They will definitely not have trouble with the box office. I think bows and arrows are a better sense of identity. Whether it is Eastern or Western historical wars, bows and arrows are no strangers in front of the movie camera. Therefore, bows and arrows are a good Carrier." Ye Ming's words immediately caused a period of silence. Ye Ming was right. There is no barrier between bows and arrows, whether in the East or in the West. They are all weapons recognized by them. In some movies, bows and arrows are used, which is also a very common scene. It is even said that the weapon of Sagittarius among the Western constellations is the bow and arrow, so it can be seen that the bow and arrow has penetrated deep into the bones of Westerners. At this time, Li Yu's eyes suddenly lit up. Bows and arrows, yes, bows and arrows are indeed a good carrier. He immediately said excitedly: "This is a good idea, Mr. Ye, continue." At this time, Ye Ming thought for a while, expressed his general meaning, and finally said: "Think about it, in the storm of bows and arrows, Luo Xiaohu swayed with the wind like a swaying tree branch, and it was shown in slow motion. , Luo Xiaohu was able to dodge all the bows and arrows, what an exciting scene it was."
When this lens was brought up, Li Yu's eyes suddenly lit up. It was indeed a good idea, but then he became a little disappointed: "What Mr. Ye said is good, but if you want to really shoot, I'm afraid you have to use With special effects, it’s very difficult to dodge bows and arrows.” In Li Yu's opinion, this is an impossible task. Therefore, in order to achieve such an effect, special effects must be used in such a situation. And it was said that Hollywood’s powerful special effects team would be used. It is impossible for an ordinary special effects team to complete such a task. But using good special effects will cost you money. at this point. It made Li Yu very worried. (To be continued)
