Zhou Shaoming looked at Avril Lavigne, who looked domineering, and couldn't help crying. In order not to undermine Avril Lavigne's kitchen skills, Zhou Shaoming had to hold back before praising Avril Lavigne's delicious food. Love Chunxing.
However, he didn¡¯t expect that Avril Lavigne would treat him so cruelly. Zhou Shaoming reluctantly took the chopsticks again and prepared to eat the food cooked by Avril Lavigne again.
Zhou Shaoming, whose hands were trembling a little, felt really hard to stomach the seemingly fragrant food.
"Forget it, you go upstairs and have a rest. I'll ask someone to cook some food for you again." Avril looked at Zhou Shaoming who was very embarrassed. When Zhou Shaoming's chopsticks were about to pick up the food, Avril still couldn't bear it and stopped him. He stopped Zhou Shaoming's actions.
Zhou Shaoming suddenly felt that he had failed. As a director, he could not perform the play well in front of Avril Lavigne. Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and said calmly: "No, in the next movie, I want to be both a director and a director." Actor, my acting skills are almost in ruins. I can¡¯t even hide it from our Avril Lavigne.¡±
When Avril heard what Zhou Shaoming said, she felt angry and wanted to laugh. She responded: "When did you have acting skills? Your acting skills are not as good as mine. You should be your director."
Avril shook her head, Zhou Shaoming glared at Avril, "Actually."
Avril looked at Zhou Shaoming who had no intention of putting down his chopsticks, and quickly cleared away the food on the table, "Stop it. Go upstairs and have a rest now." If it was an ordinary family, Avril knew that this meal might last until the end. I will be very happy, but the other party is Zhou Shaoming, who is the director.
¡°If you¡¯re not a director, you have to be superior to others, but at least after working hard for a day, Avril doesn¡¯t want Zhou Shaoming to eat such a meal. Although I feel very sad, I have to throw out the meal with my own hands after putting so much effort into it.
Zhou Shaoming hesitated for a moment and didn't want to say anything else, because Zhou Shaoming knew how bad Avril's mood was, and Zhou Shaoming no longer wanted to say anything to stimulate Avril.
Zhou Shaoming went upstairs and began to take a short rest.
The real-life shooting continued. Facing the empty set, Zhou Shaoming gradually got used to communicating with the photographer Tom. Shooting without actors felt boring at first, but gradually Zhou Shaoming also felt a different feeling.
The hard work is worth it. At least Zhou Shaoming has begun to have a deeper understanding of this type of film. As a director, Zhou Shaoming has a deep understanding after shooting it himself.
Zhou Shaoming seemed to see a sown seed. This seed could not help but be Kung Fu Panda. Thinking of this, Zhou Shaoming's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Breakthroughs in box office performance are what Zhou Shaoming has always wanted to achieve. He thought Iron Man had reached the peak of his life, but Zhou Shaoming discovered that it was just a small breakthrough as a director. There are more wonderful things to create for yourself later.
Zhou Shaoming, whose thoughts began to wander, smiled.
Tom saw a smile on Zhou Shaoming's face even after taking a short rest, and couldn't help but wonder: "This guy doesn't even sleep well, what is there for Zhou to be happy about?"
Of course, Tom couldn't understand what Zhou Shaoming was doing. In fact, Zhou Shaoming wasn't completely sure, because Zhou Shaoming didn't know whether such a movie could break the box office results that Hollywood has always created. As long as Kung Fu Panda is a success, Zhou Shaoming is confident that with such a movie, he will refresh the box office performance of "Titanic", the highest-grossing movie in Hollywood.
Zhou Shaoming is of course excited. During the filming and production period, he has learned a lot of things he didn¡¯t know. As a director, he has enriched his experience in this area.
As the production team of Kung Fu Panda continues to enrich the characters in the movie, from the protagonist to the appearances of several major characters in the movie, each character is made vividly.
The birth of these characters also allowed Zhou Shaoming to reduce a lot of repeated shots in real-location shooting, which may be a waste of resources, but generally speaking, Zhou Shaoming can still bear it.
If this is not done during filming, Zhou Shaoming may face delays in filming this movie, which will also prevent Zhou Shaoming from successfully releasing the movie this year.
Even if this is done, time still seems very rushed, and Zhou Shaoming cannot guarantee that the film will be released by the end of the year, but Zhou Shaoming still hastens the filming work.
Two months have passed quietly, and the filming progress is still tepid. Faced with this high-tech movie, Zhou Shaoming was very meticulous in every aspect and pursued perfection to the extreme.
Maybe some staff members think Zhou Shaoming is a little too sexy, and there is no such thing as perfection, but heThe director, Zhou Shaoming, doesn¡¯t want to see his work have a side scene on the screen. This would be a waste of money.
How many people worked hard to complete the movie.
If it were a real-life performance, there might be some unsatisfactory effects on the camera because of the flesh-and-blood human body. However, the Kung Fu Panda movie is completely a cartoon, all drawn using computer technology. Coupled with the real presentation of the shots, this movie can be perfectly shaped.
¡°If there were such scenes appearing in front of him one after another, not to mention the audience, not even Zhou Shaoming himself would forgive himself.
One day two months later, Zhou Shaoming was still filming at the film and television base, and had taken the shots to the production team for correction.
The protagonist Abao was constantly designing the movements on the computer. Zhou Shaoming, who was sitting aside, instructed the staff: "Let Po turn around and the smile on his face will be brighter." Following Zhou Shaoming's guidance, the staff revised it again , Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up, "That's it, let's compare."
Suddenly, several trucks came to the door of the film and television base. As the staff kept busy getting out of the truck and starting to move the oil paintings on the truck, the staff at the film and television base were all stunned.
"This is a film and television base, how come there are so many oil paintings?"
For a time, a large number of oil paintings came in, making it difficult for many workers to understand the situation.
Seeing such a scene, Zhou Shaoming had a smile on his face. After two months, more than two months, it was finally completed. At this time, Zhou Shaoming became a little excited.
Zhou Shaoming, who had been worried about the progress of the filming, stood up instantly and ran toward the door when he saw this scene. This morning is the best news Zhou Shaoming has heard in the past two months of filming.
In the production team, people often nag Zhou Shaoming. It doesn¡¯t matter if he is a tyrant on the shooting set. Unexpectedly, the production of the film is even more hateful than the tyrant. How can there be such a director who makes people make pictures that already look good over and over again? .
Watching the movers carrying the oil paintings into the film and television base, Zhou Shaoming breathed a sigh of relief. This has always been a problem that Zhou Shaoming has been worried about. The problem is not that these oil paintings are related to the filming of the beginning of the movie.
But is this kind of shooting appropriate for this movie? If appropriate, you can also choose this shooting mode for the subsequent lenses.
However, the use of scenery and computer stunts has been greatly reduced, allowing the audience to experience the film more realistically, thereby shortening the distance between the film and the audience.
If the animation was purely made using computers, then Zhou Shaoming would not have to go to such great lengths. In the early stages of filming, more than 200 relevant people were invited to complete the film. What a huge group this was.
How much effort does it take to manage such a large team? Benjamin, who used to seem very relaxed when filming movies around him, has dark circles under his eyes every day, which makes Zhou Shaoming feel a little distressed.
"However, Zhou Shaoming firmly believes that as long as the difficult days in the early stage are over and everything is sorted out, things will get better in the future.
The oil painting shooting part is still in the experimental stage. If it is ideal, Zhou Shaoming will not hesitate to start the later shots and add oil painting shots to make the film more charming.
At the same time, it is about increasing the progress of completing the film. Zhou Shaoming is actually in a dilemma.
¡°More than three thousand oil paintings are all here, Zhou, can you see if they meet your requirements?¡± Art director Raymond came to Zhou Shaoming and asked what Zhou Shaoming meant.
Zhou Shaoming opened his eyes wide and looked at the vivid pictures on the ground. He couldn't help but sneer. He didn't expect that just shooting the first shot would require so many oil paintings.
In fact, even Raymond doesn¡¯t know why Zhou Shaoming used so many oil paintings. These were created by more than 20 outstanding masters. Is Zhou Shaoming crazy?
Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath. At the moment when more than three thousand oil paintings were placed in front of him, Zhou Shaoming felt that he had created the dream-like atmosphere.
It's an immersive feeling. In fact, as a director, Zhou Shaoming used to watch actors filming movies, and sometimes he would think that the actors are really good. If he can get into the role quickly, he will enter the story and enjoy it. to show their charm in front of the camera.
What is that immersive feeling like? Zhou Shaoming sometimes wants to find a script that allows him to make a cameo.
However, there has never been such an opportunity, and now Zhou Shaoming seems to feel a little like this.
"Dreamland, Raymond, thank you so much, without youHelp, I don't know how long I have to wait. "Zhou Shaoming didn't want to wait until the end to finalize this shooting method.
Later, wait until everything is produced, and then try this shooting method
, if the results are not good, it will be a lot of trouble to revise the policy at that time, so Zhou Shaoming must complete this attempt as early as possible.
When three thousand oil paintings were placed in front of Zhou Shaoming, Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath. It was such a shocking scene to see so many works in reality.
"Dream?" Raymond was very puzzled. "Zhou, what are you going to do?" Raymond only knew that Zhou Shaoming was using these oil paintings for filming. Raymond tried his best, but couldn't believe what he wanted to do with so many oil paintings. What was photographed? Is it just a dream? Zhou, do you really have money and nowhere to spend it?
Raymond couldn¡¯t understand. If this was really the case, considering the hard work he had done before and after, he should get a higher salary. Idiot Zhou, you are really crazy. For a moment, there were stars in Raymond's eyes, unable to describe the Zhou Shaoming in front of him. Is the person standing in front of him really the famous Hollywood star Zhou? Is it the week to stand for the Oscar for Best Director?
Zhou Shaoming was a little excited and said to Raymond: "At this time, I really can't say anything. Let me shoot it. When you see the picture, we will make a judgment. Even I don't know about such shooting. , what effect will it have?¡±
Zhou Shaoming said with some self-deprecation: "If the effect is not good, then I will decisively give up this shooting method."
According to Zhou Shaoming¡¯s words, three thousand oil paintings gathered at the shooting site, and many people stood at the scene at the same time, looking at many pictures. In fact, Zhou Shaoming had discussed the order arrangement with Raymond many times before, otherwise he would not have so many oil paintings appearing in front of him at once.
In the past two months, Zhou Shaoming and Raymond communicated frequently with the oil painting masters. Their hard work finally paid off. After repeated communication and discussions, this huge project was finally completed earlier than expected.
Zhou Shaoming was a little excited, "Tang, are you ready?"
Tom, who has been cooperating with Zhou Shaoming for some time, signaled OK, "Everything is ready."
Zhou Shaoming looked at the camera and said, "Tang, don't worry about my film, just start shooting to your heart's content. I want to see all the oil paintings here appear."
Tom became a little excited, which made Tom feel a little unable to adapt. Tom had gradually lost his passion for shooting such static things. Tom didn't understand why Zhou Shaoming was so excited, "Okay."
The camera kept panning in front of the more than 3,000 paintings arranged. Since the room itself could not accommodate all the oil paintings at once, the oil paintings needed to be moved during the shooting process. The staff preparing on the side were ready to do it at any time. live.
Zhou Shaoming finished watching the footage and said, "The next set of pictures."
Tom was still shooting as before, and Zhou Shaoming kept looking at the oil painting in front of him. At this moment, Zhou Shaoming was looking forward to whether this set of shots could meet his requirements after being produced.
"Be enthusiastic, Tom, don't you seem to have eaten?" Zhou Shaoming said jokingly to Tom who was filming.
Tom was stunned for a moment, and asked while taking pictures: "Zhou, why are you taking so many oil paintings? It makes me dizzy."
Zhou Shaoming narrowed his eyes and said: "I want to turn these more than 3,000 oil paintings into the opening scene of my movie, and let the masters' oil paintings weave into a dreamlike beginning of the movie to attract the audience's attention."
Tom felt dumbfounded and said: "Using a work that the masters took more than two months to complete, just for the sake of a beginning, no, Zhou, you are too extravagant."
Zhou Shaoming stretched out his hand and said: "It's this kind of expression, luxury. Thinking of our extravagant actions, we create a visual feast for the audience. Tang, tell me, as a photographer, do you want the audience to see you shooting?" This work made my blood boil with excitement, and I felt like I was dreaming. After watching it, everyone in the audience applauded for this work, and audiences around the world applauded this movie."
Tom was stunned. He had gradually become accustomed to shooting in still scenes. Tom, who had been silently contributing in the background, had gradually forgotten this passion. His job was to follow the director's words and shoot the shots the director needed.
As for the enthusiasm and excitement in his heart, Tom has long forgotten it. Maybe Tom has never forgotten it, but as time goes by, Tom can no longer remember it.
But at this moment, Zhou Shaoming seemed to have awakened the eager mood in his heart again, letting the already gradually blurred passion ripple in his heart again.
Zhou Shaoming looked at Tom who was in a daze and said: "Good, you are finally real"I have heard your inner thoughts. At this moment, you should express yourself to your heart's content. This is not what I, as a director, require, but a desire in your heart. Use your hands to express this excitement. Let¡¯s record all the passion with a camera. Soup. "
Although he understood, he was still a little hesitant after all. The calm Tom's eyes returned to the camera again!
nbsp;Tom did not respond to Zhou Shaoming, but gradually the expression on Tom's face completely changed, and he looked at the camera with a look he had never seen before.
"I want to do something better with the oil painting on the far left. No, it's to the left, not to the right. The angle is a little more inclined. Okay, that's it."
Avril heard the sound of the filming scene from outside. Zhou was still like this today, but his voice seemed to be very hoarse. It was over. This guy Zhou seemed to be too focused on filming and really didn't know how to protect his voice.
If Zhou Shaoming were to be a singer, he would definitely make the whole audience vomit to death, because if you treat your voice like this, you can imagine how unreliable the songs he sings will be.
Fortunately, I came here today to visit Zhou, otherwise I would have been deceived by him, saying that shooting for a day was boring and that I didn¡¯t need much guidance from me. Fortunately, I packed some lozenges to protect my throat.
"Zhou?" Avril came to the shooting and saw a man constantly directing the scene. Avril frowned a little curiously. Who is he? How could he possibly be doing Zhou Shaoming's job on the set?
Tom came back to his senses, looked at Avril Lavigne's appearance, his mouth was watering, and he stammered: "Avril Lavigne."
"Who are you? Where's Zhou?" Avril saw something strange about Tom in front of her!
After listening to Avril's words, Tom thought of Zhou Shaoming and looked around. Tom had the idea of ??fainting on the spot, "Holy shit, this guy Zhou actually fell asleep." The confused Tom suddenly felt as if he had been deceived. .
"Zhou, wake up, why did you fall asleep like this? What should I do if I catch a cold? Where is Ben?" Avril shook Zhou Shaoming's body.
Zhou Shaoming looked like he still had something to say. Zhou Shaoming, who was still sleeping, couldn't help scratching his head and said, "Is the shooting finished?"
"I am Avril." Avril felt dumbfounded when she saw Zhou Shaoming who had not yet woken up. (To be continued.)
