Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The crew members all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Cheng Peng smiling, looking relaxed, and humming "Return from Target Shooting". It seemed that they had a good conversation with Qiu Zhijie, and now the film could be shot normally.  Only Chen Shaoping is the darker one. I thought, Cheng Peng has agreed to that Sister Lan, right?  But yes, it would be a pity if he doesn¡¯t eat soft rice with his looks!  Zhang Meng took a breath and asked: "Xiao Peng, how was the conversation? What did Qiu Zhijie say?" This is a question that everyone on the crew wants to know, but Cheng Peng's answer is bound to disappoint everyone. He said calmly: "  If you have anything to talk about with him, I¡¯ll go over and beat him up!¡± The crew was petrified on the spot, so I went over and beat him up. Isn¡¯t that an understatement?  Do you not consider the consequences at all?  Zhao Linlin pressed her forehead, sighed longly, and said in a helpless tone: "Why are you so impulsive? What if they call the police?" Cheng Peng shrugged his shoulders, looking indifferent: "They have already called the police.  But Qiu Zhijie asked me to hit him, and he begged me. I was too embarrassed to refuse, so I slapped him casually. "Zhao Linlin almost vomited blood: "You are still kidding me at this time!  There's not much left, what should we do now?" Cheng Peng patted Zhao Linlin on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile: "Don't worry, the mountain man has his own plan!" He raised his head and said loudly: "The others should rest for a while, Mengzi, Lin.  Lin, Qinian, Shaoping, come here, I have something to discuss with you! "The beating was a blow to the entire crew. It was already troublesome, but the director also beat him up, so the crew had to stop working, right?  Cheng Peng saw Zhang Meng and the others looking sad, so he smiled and comforted: "Why are you all so dejected? Things haven't gotten that bad yet. Just listen to me first. We are only on the third day of filming, and the entire crew is already  I am very tired, and the shooting speed is not as fast as the first day. The shooting speed will become slower and slower, not to mention that Qiu Zhijie and the others are making trouble. This yard is a mud pit. Whether I can finish the movie if I continue to stay is a problem.  So we must leave here as soon as possible." Zhang Meng smiled bitterly: "We all know this, but what can we do now? We can't start filming again, right?" Cheng Peng smiled confidently and said, "There is a way.  , use a green screen, first capture the scene in the yard with a camera, and then set up a green screen in the studio for the actors to perform in front of the green screen. After the movie is finished, just combine the background and the actors together!  Zhao Linlin¡¯s head started to hurt after this ridiculous idea, and she shouted: ¡°Green screens are very expensive, our budget is limited, where can we have the money to do this?  " Of course Cheng Peng knows that green screen is expensive, but now there is no other way: "I am not afraid of increasing costs. The key is that the movie must be shot as soon as possible.  Don¡¯t forget, our destination is the Berlin Film Festival, and we only have a little over two months to go.  This year Berlin is focusing on the 10th anniversary of the abolition of apartheid in South Africa, and "Both of Us" is about communication and understanding between people, which is very consistent with this year's theme. If our film has a chance in Berlin, go to other film festivals.  It's hard to tell, so we have no other choice.  " Everyone nodded. Everyone knew this. Only Zhao Linlin was particularly helpless: "You are right, but what about the money?  " Money is indeed a problem, especially for young directors, Ning Hao, Lu Chuan, Zhang Meng, who among these young directors has never been troubled by money? Cheng Peng took a breath and said: "I have roughly calculated, using green  If you add one screen, it will probably cost more than one million yuan, but the cost will mainly be in the later stage. There is enough time to raise funds, so you don't need to worry too much. The most important thing now is to shoot the film first.  Qinian, you know the green screen thing best, tell me about it!  " Wang Qinian agrees: "The principle of green screen and PS cutout is the same. The cost is not as high as imagined. The high cost is the need for additional special effects. Our film does not require any special effects, and it is about 1 million.  " Cheng Peng nodded and said: "I will probably have to enter the detention center in the next few days. Qiu Zhijie thought that the crew would stop working when I entered and would not cause trouble for the time being. You just use this time to take pictures of the background needed for the movie.  Qinian, how long will it take to complete?  " Wang Qinian opened his lighting plan, made some rough calculations, and said: "The winter part of the movie is mainly cloudy. Today is cloudy, so just shoot it.  There are just a few scenes that require sunlight. For this, you have to set up the lighting first, and then photograph the background.  But it¡¯s not too difficult, and I should be able to finish it all tomorrow!  " Now Cheng Peng was completely relieved and solemnly said: "You are the one who knows the green screen best in the entire crew. The green screen is left to you. Everyone will follow your arrangements!  " "The layout of the green screen is not complicated, but there are strict requirements for green color. The green color used must meet the lighting requirements.Spectrum, only when the cutout matches the spectrum can the cutout be clean.  I don¡¯t know which domestic paint is suitable. It¡¯s best to order it directly from abroad, just use Rosco¡¯s green paint.  " "You and Linlin discuss these details.  Let me talk about other arrangements. We are pressed for time and the crew must not stop work. We have some scenes on the street that we have not shot. We originally planned to shoot them last. We used the past few days to shoot this part of the scene.  I'll leave it to you, Mengzi!  " Zhang Meng nodded heavily and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely take the picture!  "  Cheng Peng walked out of the detention center, raised his head, and let the sun shine on his face. The autumn breeze blew by, feeling fresh and cool. I finally came out. The free air is so refreshing! "Hey, what are you pretending to be?  Sculpture?  He was only detained for seven days, but it felt like he had been detained for seven years!  "Zhao Linlin's voice came over. Cheng Peng turned around and saw Zhao Linlin standing on the roadside with a relaxed look. It seemed that the crew was doing well, so he smiled: "This is called living like a year. In fact, I just want to feel the mood of being released from prison.  , I am an actor, maybe one day I will play a prisoner released from prison.  How is the crew going? Has the green screen shooting started?  " "We just finished filming the scene on the street yesterday. Everyone is busy in the studio now, just waiting for you to go back and then officially start filming!  " Cheng Peng became excited when he heard this. He was so depressed during the past few days in the detention center that he even dreamed that he was filming: "Okay, let's go quickly. His hands are itchy after not holding or touching the robot for a few days.  !  " After riding for nearly an hour, Cheng Peng and the others came to the Beijing Film Studio. He used to come here often when he was playing a small role and received a lot of looks. Now that he is here as a director, he feels like he is returning to his hometown in glory. " In the studio  The green screen has been set up, and the entire green screen is completely arranged according to the frame of the yard. Where is the door, where is the wall, and where is the step, it is all very accurate. This way, it is easier for the actors to understand where they are when setting up the green screen.  I am very satisfied with this. It really takes professionals to arrange it. If this kind of framework is not set up well, the effect in the later stage will be greatly reduced. "The Promise" is a typical example. There is a bull-running scene in the movie, which makes people feel like it.  The cows inside are all flying on the ground, which is because the early frame was not set up properly. But the most difficult thing about the green screen is not how to arrange the green screen itself, but the lighting, because the lighting of the green screen requires the arrangement of special lights for the green screen.  When lighting the green screen, the light must be even and the brightness appropriate, otherwise the cutouts will not be clean in the later stages. At the same time, the actors must be lit according to the natural environment, which means that the light on the actors must be consistent with the future.  The replacement background must match, the direction of the light must be consistent, and the brightness must be consistent, otherwise it will look inconsistent. If the background to be replaced has sunlight, it will be even more troublesome. The lighting must not only simulate the position of the sun, but also the position of the sun.  Consider the color of light. Because the reflection of clouds in the air is different at different times, the color of the sun is different. For example, the color of the sun is bluer at noon, while the color is redder at sunset. Cheng Peng is very happy.  He found Wang Qinian himself, otherwise he would never dare to take the risk of green screen shooting. If ordinary lighting engineers were used to set the lighting, the final result might be the same as Huace's version of "Dragon", which is a typical example of green screen lighting failure.  Before Cheng Peng came back, the photography, recording, and lighting were all ready. Now the actors only needed to touch up their makeup and the crew could officially start filming. This was the first time that Tong Lixi performed such a performance in front of the camera. Cheng Peng felt that it was necessary.  As a reminder, I asked: ¡°Yaya, how do you feel?  " Tong Lixi looked around at the green screen around him and said, "It's green, it feels a bit weird to act here!  " Cheng Peng comforted him: "This is the same as the physical training you usually do. It's the same state during the skit, but the stage is painted green.  Acting in this kind of drama requires imagination, just imagine it as a real scene!  " Tong Lixi raised his face and said with some pride: "I didn't say I couldn't act, I just thought it was a bit strange that such a level of performance can't help the smart Yaya!  Cheng Peng laughed, applauded her, and said: "Very good, keep it like this, go and touch up your makeup quickly, we are ready to officially start filming!"  "When the two actors finished applying makeup and arrived at the designated location, Cheng Peng picked up the walkie-talkie and began to issue commands: "Every team is ready, we are starting to shoot.  " "Turn on the computer, hit the board, and start!  " Jin Yaqin walked forward with a cane, her tone was a little indifferent, but also a little arrogant: "If I let you live, you can live there. If I don't let you live, you can't live there. What rights do you have!"  Why don't you go to the telephone office and install a phone?  " "If I move away, it will be your wish!  ?Tong Lixi was a little angry. This old lady was so unreasonable.  "What's the matter? Let's make friends!" The old lady said in a very relaxed tone.  "Why don't you let me draw a line?" Tong Lixi was really angry. She stood in the shadows, looking a little helpless.  "Stop!" Cheng Peng shouted, with a smile on his face and nodding in his heart, Yaya, your acting is getting better and better!  After confirming that there were no problems with the sound and photography, Cheng Peng announced loudly: "The performance was very good, this one passed! Attention, all groups, prepare for the next one!"
