- "The Death of Film - Author: Ye Wei
Nowadays, everyone who makes movies knows that a digital revolution is taking place.
There was "Blair Witch" in ancient times and "Fragments of April" today. They proved that using digital technology, you can do a lot of things at a very low cost. For a filmmaker, there is nothing more wonderful than this, unless You have a very rich uncle, otherwise it¡¯s impossible not to fall in love with digital technology.
The law of nature is that when something is born, something dies. From black and white to color, from silent to sound, the story of the changing times of the movie is happening again. Film is dying, and digital technology is the killer, and there are a lot of accomplices.
I admit that I am one of them. I used the second-generation digital camera Sony HDC-F950 to shoot the short film "Dancing Angels" and I am shooting new footage for the remake of "Wedding Day". It makes me sure that I We are really in the 21st century.
You no longer need to review dailies, and you won¡¯t be driven crazy by film dust, scratches, and minor flaws. You don¡¯t have to wait for development to see the real effect You can even use the time you would have spent changing film and checking the camera. Get more sleep. ¡ª¡ªDirectors in the 21st century are still very tired.
The accomplice in this murder that is rarely noticed is an actor.
Actors are even more obsessed with digital shooting than directors, because they no longer have to worry about wasting film. The sizzling sound of the film running like Satan's whisper has disappeared, and the huge psychological pressure has also disappeared. They can devote themselves to their heart's content. NG, the days of holding back a sneeze during a performance are over.
The boundary between rehearsal and shooting is becoming more and more blurred. You can leave the camera on during the rehearsal stage and start shooting at any time.
Katharine Hepburn is really a great actor with great foresight. What she said, "It doesn't matter whether you can do it or not, I don't think you need any special talent to perform" has been realized in the 21st century. The actresses are at ease on the set. , just like they do at home, they are already "performing" without hearing anyone shouting Action. If you say Good-Take, she will be surprised and say: "Did I act just now?"
"Don't worry, your performance just now was very real, much better than when you were acting."
But the biggest murderers are the golf-playing bosses, who charge US$5,500 for one hour of film, US$135 for one hour of digital tape, and the flash drive is used repeatedly! They have caught up with the good times, but they still scold, scientists are all bastards, how much money would I have saved if I had invented it earlier!
No one can escape this digital revolution, you have to face it. When film dies, we don¡¯t have to feel sad or afraid. Regardless of film or digital, they are just tools for us to tell stories. As long as the heart of telling stories remains unchanged, the excitement of movies will continue.
I asked my good friend AnnaSophia Robb, a now 10-year-old film actress, ¡°Have you tried them all, do you prefer shooting digitally or on film?¡±
She said: "Shooting on film."
"Why? "Dance of Angels" was shot digitally."
"My information is wrong."
¡°Hahaha!¡± George Lucas laughed happily as he read the movie version of the Los Angeles Times in his hand at Lucas¡¯s office at the headquarters of Industrial Light and Magic in San Francisco!
Well written, well written! He especially liked the last joke. It was so funny. In the digital age, film crews still shoot on film. They can only hire actors by lying to children and saying that they shoot digitally. But after the children tried it, they fell in love with "shooting on film"! It was decided that he would use this joke to make fun of "unearthed cultural relics".
Ye Wei, that kid, really has his own opinions on digital technology.
As mentioned in the article, everyone knows that the digital revolution is coming, and the advantages of saving money and convenience have been talked about enough, but few people have talked about its impact on performance, and Ye Wei said it very reasonably, "The camera ¡°No film inside¡± is liberating for actors.
He has this realization after making a short film, which shows how talented he is as a director. He is really destined to have this job.
It¡¯s not just Lucas who applauded this article.
In Los Angeles, Robert Zemeckis, who is still busy with the post-production of "The Polar Express", also nodded and praised, "Young man, there is one more thing that I haven't mentioned yet. CGI technology may kill the performance. Computers can do better than real people." What to do when the time comes?¡±
Those actors who have tried both kinds of filming also agree with the statement of "The Death of Film", which is indeed the case!
And film supporters, even the most staunch defenders, cannot deny what this article says. This is a sad fact, and the numbers are getting more and more prosperous.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡The taste is all due to the humorous writing style, easy-to-understand professional details, and impressive viewpoints. Although there is no in-depth discussion, it is suitable for the reading needs of Times readers, and it is simply a pleasure to read.
The most amazing thing is that the author is a 16-year-old boy, no doubt A! To be more precise, A!
"Brother Wei is really good at writing articles! Like the word Leisurely used here, wow, if I were to write it, it would be Roam. It's awesome!"
"If I were to write it, it would be Easy."
"Haha, Bud, did you understand the last joke, or did AnnaSophia really say that? Hahaha!"
Today, Lev and his friends¡¯ morning reading was rarely the same as Lily¡¯s. At the same time, she was also reading ¡°The Death of Film¡± on the school bus. She had read it several times since home.
In order to become an excellent journalist, in addition to reading books and newspapers, she will also contribute articles to the school's "Spectrum" and other publications from time to time. For her age and grade, those articles are outstanding and have been widely praised by teachers and classmates. , a feeling of being on a higher level than others.
Last year, she also talked to her mother about wanting to write articles and reports for some fashion magazines and newspapers to exercise her abilities.
Her mother thought that this job would not interfere with her growth, so she said it would, so she contacted her because she was "Phil Collins' daughter" and was featured in the British versions of "Elle-Girl" and "Seventeen" magazines. If you are interested, ask her to write some articles, including some personal mood diaries and experiences in Los Angeles.
She didn't expect it to be so easy. If she wanted to do it, she felt that her writing skills were not good enough. If she could get it published, she would just rely on her father. So she hasn't published the first article yet. She planned to improve it before submitting it. 16 You can open a personal column when you are old.
After falling in love, there was not enough time, so the matter stopped unconsciously.
Nowadays, there is a big gap compared with Weiyi. Her articles have become the complaints of ordinary teenagers!
His writing style is so calm and confident that it may not be described as elegant, but arrogant, showing off his knowledge and talent, and of course his humor. Words are charming, and they are just as charming as he is.
"I have to work harder!" Lily said in her heart, not only happy because of this article, but also mustered up the energy to not fall too far behind!
You must start a column when you are 16 years old! 17 years old at the latest
She looked at the students on the school bus. They only laughed and laughed, and had no concept of career dreams. It was a bit comforting This kind of mentality cannot be spoken out.
¡¡
On Monday, the crew of "Wedding Day is Coming" continued to work. In their free time, everyone was circulating the "Los Angeles Times". After reading it, they all gave a thumbs up and said to Ye Wei, "It's so well written!" Gia was no exception. She added: "You should use this rehearsal shooting method, because you behave exactly like the actress you said."
"Good idea, give it a try!" Ye Weiguang accepted the advice.
¡¡
"That guy's article was published, and he really has some writing skills"
No need for Tracy to say it, Lovett also knew that he was reading this damn newspaper! The gloomy face is actually very weak.
He felt that the enemy was about to succeed again. Although this move was not as sensational and effective as hyping up scandals, it was in line with Ye Wei's public image. It only had a positive improvement and no negative effects at all. Articles don¡¯t have as long a production cycle as feature films and short films. One article per week gives fans something to pursue. Once this kind of dating inertia is formed, Ye Wei¡¯s popularity will not lose quickly and can be sustained until the release of the next video work. .
Since the fan base of that boy has changed a lot, it is not just ignorant teenagers, but also those who like professional and technical people, so this will not dull them.
It will be more eye-catching if there is a controversial article from time to time.
¡°We don¡¯t need to hype up a ¡®young couple¡¯, we just need to open a column in the newspaper! Don¡¯t worry, my article is well written!¡±
The boy¡¯s confident words rang in his ears Damn it! Lovett crinkled the newspaper between his teeth.
"That's it? Don't you want to continue?"
Tracy¡¯s words came out of the earbud again, and he could only remain silent. There were not many tricks he could use. If their hands and feet were not clean, they would get into trouble.
¡°And he has a lot of work to do. Suppressing Ye Wei is a personal grudge, to keep his reputation and Willis¡¯s ace client, and to embarrass Brian¡¯s camp, but he is very busy! Not even a penny of income from suppressing Ye Wei could be brought to him.
what to do? How could you crush this kid to death so quickly?
"I have to think about it, I have to think about it"
¡¡
On April 6, the day after "The Death of Film" was published in the newspaper, Brian called Ye Wei and excitedly told him the latest news!
"According to the results of their reader survey system, your article was the most popular article in yesterday's movie edition! More than 20% ahead of the second place! People like you!"
"Wow, that's really good!" Of course Ye Wei was happy about this.
"They invite you to continue to contribute and publish your second article in the movie edition next Monday. If you have good results for three consecutive weeks, the top five will be enough, and you will be given a fixed column!"
¡°Cool! No problem, I have a lot to say, and I¡¯ve already thought of next week¡¯s topic, ¡®The Era of the R-Rating¡¯!¡±
"You write well and pay attention to the scale, but Leslie will check it, so just write it. If you write a column, I don't know if you are the youngest columnist in the Los Angeles Times, but it will definitely be news !¡±
"I will make it happen, just call it 'VIY Says'." Ye Wei said confidently and firmly, not only for fame, but also to earn some royalties!
He told his family and friends the good news. Everyone was very happy. Anna smiled proudly and said, "Yi, it's all thanks to me. You will make up my jokes in the next issue!" He was surprised and thought of something: " Great idea, this will be a selling point! Fun AnnaSophia in every issue!¡±
"Haha! Look at me, I've done something amazing again, I'm a winner!"
Anna came to Los Angeles to visit him for a few days at the end of March. Now she is in Toronto to play "Samantha: An American Girl's Vacation" and is even busier than him.
On Wednesday, April 7th, the crew of "Wedding Day is Coming" continued to go out to the "Paradise" Griffith Park. They found a green lawn with a wide view and deers. They added a little scenery and put on soft lights. It looks like the Garden of Eden, and all the scenes of "Paradise" are completed in this largest park in Los Angeles with an area of ??17 square kilometers.
Today, the set welcomed a big shot, Nicolas Cage!
