In fact, after arriving in Dongguan, Shen Changlin unconsciously felt guilty...

It's normal. I know how much he weighs!

If you ask him to criticize a movie, he can criticize it for half an hour without repeating it, but now he is directing it himself.

There is a mountain between the camera and the camera!

If you have perfect theory, you can shoot shit, and anyone can do it on paper.

Have you not seen Mr. Roden, a big shot in film theory? He is extremely knowledgeable and talented. He looks down on A Mou and is a master of all kinds of poetry recitals. In words, he is the most awesome. He is much better than Mr. Bi. , Teacher Bi’s writing also contains the most basic respect for the film industry and sincerity for the art of light and shadow.

Teacher Luo went on the show himself and brought a movie called "Bad Movies: A Dangerous Way to Win Treasures"...

Facts have proved that the effect of watching from the outside is completely different from doing it inside.

The simplest example is a marathon.

Everyone knows how to run a marathon, what the route is, and where are the supply points, but if you really run it, you will definitely be blind. If you are asked to finish it within the specified time, you will be completely dead...

but…

The project has been decided and the sponsorship money has been collected, so we have to shoot!

The assistant directors are really awesome. Every time Shen Changlin has an idea, they can immediately draw the shot...

The more this happens, the more anxious Shen Changlin becomes...

He also has a bit of a temper. Of course, he doesn't lose his temper with others. Instead, he often locks himself in the room and discusses shooting with photographer Han Qiming. The discussion lasts all night, and he even started smoking!

Shen Changlin also secretly asked Han Qiming what the director would do during the official filming. Han Qiming told him honestly, "The director's job is to sit behind the monitor and see if the effect you want is achieved." Wondering how you can make the picture better.'

Feel…

He's just a supervisor!

No, the director's job can't be that simple!

So he became even more anxious!

Han Qiming told producer Li Xiaoping about these strange things, and Li Xiaoping took the time to chat with Shen Changlin.

I learned that he was worried that he was not capable enough...

He smiled and comforted: "You are a director, not an artist! I think a commercial film director is more like a CEO, who needs to direct a large group of people to complete a project."

"As long as a director is proficient in any of photography and screenwriting, he can meet the basic requirements of this profession. The most critical thing is his own execution and management and coordination abilities."

"A good director, when he uses capital to bring together all kinds of outstanding talents, will definitely give full play to their role and turn his own macro blueprint into concrete images on the big screen."

"This is enough!"

…

The Rays take "Big Shot" seriously...

This year's National Day release, Enlight's big production "Fist of Fury" lost again!

Liu Weiqiang + Chen Jiashang + Donnie Yen, and it was the IP of "Chen Zhen", but it actually lost to "Tongtian Empire"...

Moreover, Xu Ke has collaborated with Guangguang before.

This is very irritating!

Not only that, Donnie Yen also publicly questioned the distribution capabilities of Raytheon on Weibo, saying, ""Chen Zhen" is not a good film from an overall film perspective, but it is not a bad film either. If it were distributed by Huayi Brothers, "" The box office performance of "Detective Dee" and "Chen Zhen" are likely to be adjusted!"

He has a basis for saying this, because in Hong Kong, the box office of "Fist of Fury" exceeded that of "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven"!

The light's response was vague.

He said, "Movies are inherently regretful art..."

However, it is an indisputable fact that "Fist of Fury" was not as good as "Tongtian Empire" at the box office, and its reputation was not as good as "Sword Rain".

There is also some controversy within the company about the schedule of "Painted Wall". After all, the film will be released in September next year, and the National Day release that follows must win, and it must win beautifully.

In the past two years, the films produced by the Xiangjiang team have had mixed reviews.

Maybe it would be safer to go to "Big Shot"...

Under this premise, Li Xiaoping must of course ensure that Shen Changlin can film "Big Shot" with peace of mind...

As for Shen Changlin’s directorial skills…

Is it important?

Storyboarding, the work of the assistant director;

Camera positioning, lighting, photography, photography direction, and lighting direction;

Action, martial arts instruction;

Props, makeup, and lunch boxes are all other people's work.

What does a director do?

The director is actually a translator, responsible for expressing the things in the script through the lens and the entire scene and the actors. The entire arrangement of this scene is the director's job. Therefore, if the story looks awkward to you, this means that the director is not qualified. If you look at It's cool, that means the director is awesome.

As for the directors talking to the actors about the scene, in fact, most of them don't know how to talk about acting skills. The acting skills are all professional actors. You only need to communicate with the actors what the scene needs to be like.

This thing is really no more difficult than talking about cross talk...

When making movies, the most important thing is money and people. Without these two things, nothing can be done. Shen Changlin lacks nothing, so why can't he be a good director?

And Li Xiaoping really thinks Shen Changlin is good, because in addition to the preliminary preparations, he can express some ideas and actually shoot, and rarely interferes with other people's professional work. She trusts these people very much!

This...isn't this enough?

…

Not enough for Shen Changlin!

He once wrote about China Entertainment and quoted a sentence that classified directors:

A great director is not only an all-around film artist, but also a philosopher, thinker and film innovator. This talent and opportunity are not available to everyone;

Excellent directors, skilled film craftsmen, they are good at using film methods to tell stories. This story is not great, but at least it is complete and solid;

Competent directors and skilled filmmakers have basic directorial qualities. The works they present may not necessarily be great, but they are fairly complete and will not have fatal flaws.

Well, just in these three categories, if you are not even qualified, then you are not worthy of being a director!

You see, in his eyes, a competent director must also be a skilled filmmaker!

What skills does Shen Changlin have?

In fact, he underestimated himself. The most important thing for a director is his judgment. You shot several shots in one shot, which one is the best?

This director has the final say!

And Shen Changlin happens to have this condition, because he has seen it!

Also, he has a good personality and will not interfere with the opinions of professionals. Unlike Lao Jiang, everything on the crew has to be done by himself, including the innermost costumes of the actors - as Chen Chong said.

Of course, Lao Jiang is awesome...

Shen Changlin is because he really doesn't understand...

In fact, returning to the essence of film creation, a work contains nothing more than director, picture, sound, performance and other major aspects.

Forget it, Shen Changlin stayed in Dongguan for a whole month anyway, making preliminary preparations!

Until the end of October, he had to go back to BJ. The post-production of "33 Days of Love" was completed, and Shen Changlin needed to confirm it;

The crew of "Xiu Chun Knife 2" has also started preparatory preparations;
Chapter completed!
