Chapter 253 0252: He will carry the banner of show drama (3)
Xu Chenyi was very focused and serious throughout the whole process, but it turned out to be unsatisfactory. The connection between moves was not smooth, but it was much better than the same one.
Huang Tao saw that it was impossible to go east like that, so he made two adjustments. First, he split the moves and used multiple lenses to shoot them. Second, he rethought some good-looking and simple moves.
"Chen Yi, yes." Jiang Ge walked over, first praising Xu Chenyi's professionalism, and then said: "But, after all, I am not a professional action actor, and I can't give in to actions that are too complicated and difficult. Come on Wu."
There are many dangerous moves, martial arts moves, etc. that actors cannot perform well without special training. It is understandable to use professional stuntmen to assist them. Like Bruce Lee, who did somersaults because he did not look good, so he hired Yuan Hua to do somersaults. substitute.
Of course, don't go too far and ask a substitute to do everything. That will definitely not work.
Xu Chenyi did not jump into the trap. As an actor, he knew that if the action scenes of a show were not good to watch, the quality of the whole drama would be greatly compromised, so he said, "He knows about Director Jiang."
Jiang Ge patted him on the shoulder and said: "Qiu Zhen wants to do it himself. Wait until he finds me a coach and learns whether there is a chance."
Xu Chenyi nodded. It would be really difficult to learn something unsystematically.
Then, Jiang Ge took a loudspeaker from Huang Tao and said, "Take a rest for a while."
Then, he stretched his legs and pointed at Chen Qian who was not far away, and said: "Boss Chen, who invested in their drama, will treat everyone to drink milk tea. When the work is over at midnight, he will give everyone extra food."
"Yeah! Thank you, Boss Chen!"
…
For a moment, the set was filled with cheers.
Chen Gan waved his legs to everyone, smiled and nodded.
Jiang Ge then asked the show manager to call other actors to the set and tell them that they had a request.
The [Star Card: Cheng Xiaodong] in the leg can naturally make the best use of it, benefiting more system-bound artists.
"We asked, why did Director Jiang suddenly summon them?" Zhang Jun asked curiously on the way to the set.
"Is there something wrong with the script?" Lin Yu guessed.
"I guess not. After filming so many scenes, Director Jiang has never changed the script once." Gong Li replied.
"Will it be 'one-hour guidance'?" Gu Yao asked.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's spirits were lifted.
Django has always been on the set to provide guidance, but it is not a deeper kind of guidance.
Some of them had never participated before, and they quickened their pace with a little excitement.
In about a quarter of an hour, everyone arrived.
See you soon.
The core crew members gathered around, and Django started speaking in the middle.
"Some action scenes focus on fists and physical movements, and some focus on moves. In the picture, the whole atmosphere can be poetic and beautiful..."
…
"In addition to martial arts, action directors need to understand the entire scene and story, how to design the progression and some shots, and take into account the beginning and end of the entire action scene, and how to connect it seamlessly with other literary scenes so that the whole movie looks smooth. …”
…
"Creation requires something that is reasonable and unexpected. As the times develop, people's wisdom is also updated, and they also seek innovation when creating..."
…
After talking about the theoretical part, Jiang Ge took the scene just now as an example and redesigned and arranged it in Cheng Xiaodong's style, paying attention to every detail.
Huang Tao and his team on the side were all shocked. This new set of movements was elegant, free, and full of freedom. It was so beautiful.
Is that possible? Is that possible? Cheng Xiaodong.
In the mid-1980s, Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong came together. One had a superb imagination and was full of fantastic ideas; the other was an outstanding action director and designed many free and elegant fighting scenes.
The two worked together to create works such as "A Chinese Ghost Story", "The Swordsman", "The Swordsman: The Unbeaten East", and "New Dragon Inn", which brought the development of Chinese martial arts films into a new era. .
In the 1990s, martial arts films reached new heights, and Cheng Xiaodong's elegant fighting style was indispensable.
The story is not the same as the original martial arts story, but Cheng Xiaodong’s action style of flying into the sky, escaping from the earth, and defying gravity adds a strong freehand color to that martial arts story, and it also became a significant feature of martial arts movies of that period. feature.
In short, during that hour, Jiang Ge talked about the design of movements, the use of wires, the coordination of special effects, etc. Huang Tao and his team learned a lot from it.
Seeing that they were done, Chen Qian brought a cup of milk tea over, handed it to Jiang Ge, and said, "I'm so awesome, I even know martial arts."
Jiang Ge smiled narrowly and said: "How could he write "Xiao Yu'er and Hua Wuque" and "Xiao Bao and Kangxi" if he doesn't understand martial arts?"
Chen Gan held Dongba in his arms, recalled something, and said seriously: "It's not like that. I used to look like a weak chicken, and I was so weak."
Jiang Ge raised his eyebrows. On the surface, the physical fitness of "Django" seemed to be weak. He then smiled and said, "Do you know what 'pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger' means?"
Chen Qian put on an air of "He believes in me as a ghost" and said: "To be honest, martial arts and Xian Ai are both cultures and concepts that he likes very much. Seeing that I revived martial arts dramas and now Xian Ai dramas, it's very happy."
Jiang Ge was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, and said: "Strictly speaking, "Little Fish and Flower" and "Xiao Bao and Kangxi Xiao Bao" are not particularly outstanding martial arts dramas, but they are overhyped by those people on the Internet, but "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is different. It is definitely a drama that can carry the banner of famous dramas."
Chen Gan smiled and said: "Although he has not read the script and does not know what the story is, when he came here tomorrow, he saw that everyone was very serious and committed. Add in the 500 million investment, the cast and me, whoever said it was not good, he would be angry with him!"
Jiang Ge did a lot of homework before changing "Legend of Sword and Fairy", because tens of thousands of [Superstar Value] is not a small amount.
First of all, he had to make sure whether to shoot all according to the original version and whether to change it according to the game settings.
Because, when the drama was first released, the plot, characters, and acting skills were all complained by game fans.
Hu Ge was praised by game fans for his appearance that fits Li Xiaoyao very well, but his acting was exaggerated and superficial; An Yixuan's character was criticized for being too noisy and rude, and not having the temperament of a rich lady from a famous family at all; the character of Anu was considered too silly and sweet, as childish as a little kid; other supporting roles, including the Moon Worshiper played by Xu Jinjiang, the Drunken Swordsman played by Xie Junhao, Jiang Ming played by Wang Lujiang, etc., were all criticized. On the contrary, the original character Tang Yu Xiaobao was accepted by game fans, who thought that Peng Yuyan's performance was silly and very interesting.
