Speaking of the best Asian films, Japanese films were once the premier leaders, masters and masterpieces took off, and for a long time they were the spokesmen for Asian films in the eyes of the outside world. Later, with the sudden rise of Korean films, a large number of works focusing on realistic themes were acclaimed and sold, and for a while, there was no difference in the limelight, and there was a great momentum of Japanese films falling behind the throne of Asia. When the two competed for dominance, the Indian films that had always been classified as different have made rapid progress over the years, while retaining traditional characteristics, boldly introducing advanced ideas and technologies from Europe and the United States, which can be called three days of not seeing, and will be impressed.
<h1>In fact, in addition, on the distant Persian plateau, there is another force that cannot be underestimated, that is, Iranian movies. Don't look at the domestic fame is not so loud, but there are many good films. "A Parting", "Little Shoes", "Taxi", "I Grew Up in Iran", "Sparrow Song" and so on, all of which are popular masterpieces. Not to mention the world's greatest master, Abbas Kiarostami, is a national treasure of the Iranian film industry. </h1>
In addition to making the eyes of the majority of film fans feast their eyes, such a wealth of genres and well-made film works is not a good way for ordinary people thousands of miles away to understand a country, after all, there are many channels and many roads, and it makes some sense to listen to it darkly and listen to it at the same time.
For a long time, people's impression of today's Iran has always been mixed with a little mystery, counting and counting is nothing more than a few keywords, the real "rich oil" oil, the theocratic Islamic regime, the anti-American vanguard who shouts and kills all day, and the black veil on the heads of women.
So what does Iran look like under the veil? Let's take a look at the Tehran Taboo, the story of the film is very clear, telling the story of three Iranian women.
A child who was imprisoned because of her husband's drug use had to take care of a child who could not speak alone, but because her husband did not approve Huaihuai, he could not divorce, and under the embarrassment of life, he had to live in prostitution, and exchanged his flesh for some meager living expenses, until later he was forced by life to fight hard, but it was willow and dark flowers.
What does a seemingly happy middle-class woman have to do with finding a job, but because her husband refuses to agree to sign a letter of approval and cannot get the opportunity to work outside, what does this have to do with her child who has been aborted twice and a baby in her belly?
A young beauty from out of town, can't help but have sex with young musicians, but because of the loss of virginity and caused a lot of trouble, how to deal with the upcoming wedding, and how to face a series of conspiracies behind the wedding, the young girl is almost desperate.
Three women of different backgrounds in such a country full of sexism, malfeasance and ubiquitous theocratic taboos, the pressure of life can be imagined, especially if you still want to have a little personal thought. The lives of the three women constitute the three main lines of the whole film, from the beginning of the parallel to the intersection of fates because of a residential building, and then began to cross-narrative, and finally the climax of the whole film comes from a prank-like phone call, and all the contradictory dark lines laid out in the last ten minutes burst out violently, however, the final ending is not as easy as a joke.
Just as the tone of the film is clearly dark from beginning to end, this is really not a story that can make people happy. Dark, depressed, resentful, and unable to resist the urge to smash everything hit the mind from time to time, but there was nowhere to start. If the audience in front of the screen is still like this, it is not difficult to imagine what the people living in the local area should do.
The film was filmed for this part, and people had to clap their hands. It seems to be a light weight, but in fact it is light and heavy, and it can be seen that the director's skill is quite extraordinary. Not only is the story well written and acted well, but the shooting techniques are also unique, which is worth mentioning.
For reasons that are well known, such a film on this subject obviously cannot be filmed in Iran on real location, and even releasing it in real scenes will be a very troublesome thing. Fortunately, now that the film technology is very developed, the mountains do not turn, and the director has chosen a special form of expression such as animation to carry the storyline. But unlike ordinary cartoons, "Tehran Taboo" captures live action through green screen technology, and then uses rotoscoping technology to complete post-production at computer manufacturers, and after combining the two into one, it is presented to the audience in front of the big screen.
So what is green screen technology?
The full name of the green screen technology should be the green screen deduction, which can be simply understood as keying. The actors perform in front of the green screen, the camera shoots the relevant actions, and then processes them in the computer, cutting out the green of the background and replacing it with other backgrounds that match the plot.
So why do you have to use green?
First of all, it has to do with photographic equipment. Because red, green and blue are basic colors, they can be used in theory. Because there is a certain correlation between the shooting object and various colors, and there is a certain proportion of collection quality between different colors, as we know, the content of the film is expressed through people and some events, so how to accurately identify people is very important for completing a movie, and green is a highly saturated color, compared to other colors, it is more likely to form a color difference, and it is easier to track objects and locate. And in post-production, it is more convenient to distinguish from other colors, and it is easier to "cut the picture", so now it is generally green.
Of course, in addition to green, there are other colors to choose from, such as blue, corresponding to the blue screen.
Blue is the complementary color of human skin, and it is also very easy to achieve separation cutout with a blue screen as the background. Generally speaking, in Asia, the blue screen is generally used, while in Europe, the green screen is generally used. Mainly because most of the Europeans have blue eyes, if the blue screen is used, the eyeball part of the actor in the post-keying is difficult to deal with, and it will lead to a significant increase in cost.
Why shoot with a green screen?
The main reason is the cost savings.
Compared with expensive live-action shooting, green screen technology is cheaper and more affordable. Shots that used to require a complete studio and even an out-of-location shot are now green screens where the actors can focus on the action in front of the background wall, and the rest is left entirely to the post-production team. This not only greatly saves production costs, but also can dismantle the original step-by-step work into several parts to go hand in hand, and get more in one fell swoop.
For example, a considerable part of the cost of the demon cat biography (good places are very good, bad places, still very bad) was spent on the 1:1 field construction of Tang city exterior. If the green screen technology is adopted, it is believed that more banknotes can be spent on more needed blades, such as the polishing of the story, and I believe that it is beneficial to the overall quality of the film.
Final question, since the green screen technology is so good, can it completely replace live-action shooting?
There is no uniform standard answer to this question. The public is justified, the mother says that the wife is reasonable, and all kinds of controversies have not stopped. Generally speaking, live-action shooting is more realistic, but the green screen can bring the audience more visual experience, and at the same time has an overwhelming advantage in terms of cost performance. Therefore, for a long time in the future, I believe it will be a way for real scenes + green screens to coexist, and how to choose depends on the amount of funds invested in the film and the actual needs of the plot.
However, one thing that needs to be emphasized is that the green screen technology only solves the background problem, reduces the cost, and avoids some unnecessary risks brought by the actor's personal battle, which does not mean that the acting requirements for the actors have been reduced. On the contrary, for the actors in front of the camera, it is actually more difficult to perform in front of a green curtain than in the real scene, because the necessary reference materials are missing, and at the same time, higher requirements are put forward for the mobilization of the corresponding emotions, the proportion of subtle actions, and even the cooperation of the partner. This is why many domestic traffic flowers relying on "cutout" + "PS" on the top, and the performance of fresh meat always gives people a feeling of being like a wooden chicken and walking dead, in the final analysis, it is not the fault of the green screen, but their basic skills are not hard.
Back to the film itself.
In the form of cartoons, almost white painting techniques, the Iranian under the veil vividly displayed on the screen, almost a pair of Tehran style paintings, but it is about Tehran taboo Tehran Taboo, is to say, can not not say, dare not say Tehran taboo Tehran Taboo.
Finally, I really don't understand a point, why do Iranians sell an artificial hymen, they have to add a MADE IN CHINA?
