"Long Moon Ember Ming": Three major shortcomings that cannot be saved by acting skills

The magical fairy drama "Long Moon Ember Ming" finally carries the thousands of expectations of fans to start broadcasting, starting from the official announcement of the file, the trailers, tidbits and posters that change every day really adjust the audience's appetite, Luo Yunxi followed "Runyu" and then wore "Immortal", "Devil", "War" three lives of cause and effect, Bailu jumped the city tower after "Shiyi", Chen Duling performed the vicious villain for the first time and many other gimmicks occupied the hot search list early.

In addition, the exquisite service road, the perfect integration of Dunhuang elements, and the unique immortal group portraits all let people see the intentions of this drama, and attracted many passers-by to be extremely curious about this drama without fan filters, and the popularity exceeded 10,000 on the second day of broadcasting, and it became the fastest rush among similar dramas.

From the results of the first few days, it seems that "Long Moon Ember Ming" will undoubtedly become one of the annual hits, and Youku finally won back a city with the show, but when the long-awaited passion gradually returned to the dullness of daily drama chasing, both fans and passers-by inevitably tasted some unsatisfactory shortcomings from it, although no drama can be perfect, but the shortcomings of "Long Moon Ember Ming" are a little too obvious, so that even if the actors' various acting skills are online, they still can't hide from everyone.

Embarrassing hot search

The first hot search after the start of "Long Moon Ember Ming" turned out to be not the plot, but about the figure of the male protagonist Luo Yunxi, and even took out "Runyu" for a walk, this hot search really made Luo Yunxi's fans very unhappy, even passers-by seem to be inexplicable.

Luo Yunxi's thinness is indeed famous in the circle, but it is precisely because this thinness makes him closer to the character image, the demon god is already in a gloomy shape, and the cold light in Luo Yunxi's deeply sunken eye sockets also appropriately interprets the demonic nature.

Reincarnated back 500 years ago, the humiliated Tangtai Ember has not had enough to eat since he was a child, and he can still be blown by a thin wind, and Luo Yunxi at this time is also very suitable for the original work. However, netizens were very worried and shouted Luo Yunxi to eat, so that the main owner had to send two Weibo responses in a row.

In addition, there are several demon gods compared to each other, and the smell of gunpowder in the comment area is bursting, I don't know what the intention of this entry is when it is released. There is also a comparison of the length of actors in the first eight episodes, and this hot search itself is full of the taste of war, whether it is to satirize the crew or target an actor with ulterior motives. Even instigated the actor's styling problem, looking like he couldn't wait for two fans to tear it.

In short, the discussion of the plot since the beginning of the broadcast is far less popular than these strange questions, and these embarrassing hot searches have gradually made passers-by increasingly bored, if there is also a marketing component in it, it is really a snake.

Cheap makeup

The makeup of the costume fairy drama pays attention to natural and thin, and in order to pursue the beauty of the picture, it is inevitable to use filters to soft light, but the makeup of "Long Moon Ember Ming" really makes the audience a little incomprehensible.

The first is the self-adjusting filter function given by Youku, and as a result, screenshots of various strange colors appear on the Internet. In fact, it is not necessary, the fairy drama was originally not a person, the filter as long as it is not strange that the audience is basically acceptable, and it can also make the picture more beautiful, but many close-up close-ups simply do not have filters, resulting in the actors' crow's feet are clearly visible, and the barrage can only be jokingly explained that the fairy is quite grounded.

In addition to the filter, what makes the audience more uncomfortable is the actor's makeup, and they all shouted whether the crew had no money to hire a makeup artist. The first is the eyeliner that is clearly visible to all members, this almost novice eyeliner method has not appeared on the screen for many years, even if it is to show the magic, most of the use is smudge painting, how can it not be a line and rush.

The makeup of the actors is generally heavy, the problem of floating powder in close-up shots is clearly visible, and even the heroine has appeared in different eyeshadows in both eyes.

The angle of the male protagonist's sword eyebrows is too high, reminiscent of "Goku" in the comic "Dragon Ball", and the overly obvious shadow also makes Luo Yunxi's face appear thinner and longer. On the contrary, the eyebrow shape of the white deer descends, causing the whole person to look very unenergetic, the color of the eyebrow smudge is too intense, and the shadow part is not clean enough, resulting in some close-ups not clean enough and lack fairy air.

The second female Chen Turin did not have many scenes in the early stage, but as soon as she appeared, she felt very swollen, most of her scenes were crying scenes, obviously there were traces of not touching up makeup in time after the play, and the makeup obviously did not play a role in modifying the face shape, Chen Duling was thin enough, but she drew a round face. In addition, there are too bright and uneven lipsticks for the male protagonist and male duo, and the scribbled finish at the level of the supporting actor's photo studio, all of which make the audience feel blind to exquisite clothing and jewelry.

The late scrawl

"Long Moon Ember Ming" is in a sense airborne Youku, and the announcement is only a week in advance, probably it should be on the shelves with cards, so hurriedly raised up can't help but make people wonder if Youku has suffered heavy losses because of this hit drama that has run away from home and has not returned so far, and has to come up with a killer tool to stabilize its position, so that the post-production is so sloppy.

On the first day of broadcasting, the audience found that the actor's lip shape and dubbing were seriously inconsistent, but this is not that the actor was unprofessional to deal with "one, two, three, four", but indeed changed the lines in the later stage, but the original lines did not seem to touch any red lines, so the magic change made netizens really scratch their heads. Some netizens analyzed that it may be for the progress of the plot, and when editing, they found that they could not echo before and after, and had to change their lines to make the plot smoother.

When it comes to the plot "Long Moon Ember Ming", it is really not procrastinating at all, and even a little too anxious, the character's mentality changes extremely quickly, and there are not too many misunderstandings to make people worry, and the development of the situation is also changing rapidly, making people feel that they can't miss any shot, otherwise they may not understand it later. In the tidbits, there is a section filmed that the male and female protagonists are married for the first time as mortals, and Bai Lu laughed when he walked the scene, saying that this paragraph is only 0.2 pages, which is not enough for her to play.

From the demon god general to the heroine, it took 500 years to change her life against the sky and change her life in just 10 episodes, and it took only 10 episodes to complete the opening and directly open the copy, which is a little too fast, and even makes people feel like watching the drama at double speed, and even the actors' lines seem to be accelerated. Although the copy of "Ordinary Floating Life" in the original work is the main play, whether the introduction in front of this is too hasty, it is no wonder that the original fans complain about the magic change of the drama version.

Of course, this may be a helpless move of the film side, it is reported that when the show is established, it is not allowed to do the upper and lower parts, and when the later review is submitted for review, it is strictly compressed to less than 40 episodes, and the 34 episodes finally presented should be edited many times. But it is clear that the final result is not so satisfactory, and the many restrictions of mainstream trends on fairy tale dramas may be the main reason, but if the script and editing can be optimized, can these problems be avoided.

But overall, "Long Moon Ember Ming" still lived up to expectations, especially the wedding of the God of War and Sangjiu after the copy was opened, whether it is the role of picture color, the fusion of Dunhuang elements reflects the ultimate oriental aesthetics, and the emotional development of the male and female protagonists first marry and then love has also become a key attraction. Although some flaws are unavoidable, it is still a work of conscience after all, and it is worth chasing the annual hit.
