Directed by Cai Suying, starring Dong Chengming, Qu Aohui, Chen Yihan Estelle, and produced by Shanghai Seven Sages Film and Television Culture Media Co., Ltd., the sci-fi thriller film "Super Event" announced today that it will be released on September 22, and the official also released the "runaway version" pilot trailer and the "Super Sudden" final poster.
The film tells the story of a mother paralyzed in bed, a poor college student, who gains the superpower of being able to manipulate objects due to an accident. After experiencing many superpower experiments with his friend Ao Hui, Cheng Ming became confused about how to use superpowers, and used his superpowers to illegally profit and hurt others at the instigation of his friends. The unrestrained two play more and more fire, gradually moving towards an irreparable road of destruction, but with the double blow of the death of Cheng Ming's mother and the side effects of excessive use of superpowers, Cheng Ming suddenly wakes up, and finally regains his strength with the encouragement of his girlfriend Zi Lin, bravely faces everything and finally returns to love and hope.
For the first time, domestic science fiction films have tried the "pseudo-documentary" shooting method The special effects team of thousands of people has created the ultimate sense of reality
I believe that at the beginning of the "Super Event" movie, the first thing that attracted the audience was its unique shooting method, just like it was revealed in the trailer, in the shot, it was a handsome young man taking a selfie, and sometimes it would change into a different angle of other people or selfies or monitoring. It is reported that the main creative team of this movie "Super Event" used a new shooting method - the form of pseudo-documentary, which is also the first time that domestic science fiction films have tried the shooting method of "pseudo-documentary", which can be said to be another new attempt and visual upgrade.
As the first person to eat crabs, director Choa Soo Ying once said: "In order to increase the authenticity of the film and better mobilize the curiosity of the audience, most of the shots in the film have applied relatively difficult shooting methods, and at the same time, it is also hoped that the audience can resonate with their fantasies of superpowers through such a real restoration lens, and can live a super addiction." "Director Cai Su should use a rich lens language to explore the world of images endlessly, and at the same time bring a more realistic sense of substitution to the audience, and the form of pseudo-documentary believes that in the future dissemination, it is believed that the film can help more in the future dissemination."
And director Cai Suying, as the 3D supervisor of "Di Renjie's God Dragon King", in addition to the shooting method, the special effects are also very worth mentioning. This "Super Event" is not so much a visual feast, but rather a real VR special effects show, all kinds of special effects in the film are perfectly integrated into daily life, allowing the audience to experience all the moments of superpowers at close range, creating an immersive sense of reality, this sense of reality, is the special effects team behind it, regardless of day and night continuous groping, polishing, elaborate results, I believe that after the real release of the movie, it will definitely make the audience shout wonderful and exciting.
From a thousand faces to a thousand faces The theme of reality is expressed behind the "super power" event
In recent years, there have been many movies related to superpowers, especially hollywood's various "superman" and "hero" movies, but no matter which kind of hero, it seems that they are using the mainstream values of the West to brainwash the audience, using simple but rough ways to express the truth, goodness and beauty in the minds of the Western world, but in fact, for Asian audiences, in the Western story system, although we can feel the similarity, it is difficult to find a sense of resonance. "Super Event" is different from ordinary "super energy" movies at the beginning of the story construction, and from the trailer, he pays more attention to locality and grounding.
The story takes place in Cheng Ming, an ordinary poor teenager in Shanghai, and at the same time as a less "sunny" protagonist. Cheng Ming has his own bitterness - his mother is paralyzed in bed, all relying on his own desperate efforts to earn money, but also has his own limitations - his personality is somewhat cowardly, even some inferiority, he also has unreliable friends, and there are goddesses who can't catch up. At the first moment of encountering problems, he took the wrong path, and even caused unimaginable consequences. He is the epitome of the personality of each of us, he will shrink back when he encounters bullying, he will make mistakes when he encounters provocation, and Cheng Ming in the movie is more like us in another world, playing an ordinary ordinary person for us, struggling and confused when encountering setbacks and difficulties.
Behind the authenticity and grounding of the story of "Super Event" is the reflection of the creative team's keen observation of the real world, giving some ordinary people sudden changes, what will happen? Just like the question given in the trailer, when you have superpowers, what do you want? Do you want to know all the truth about the world, do you have the ability to control people's hearts, or do you use your superpowers to gain huge amounts of money and power? Through the film, the main creative team wants to express not only the change in the fate of the personality of the small people, but also the use of the actions of the small people to show the hidden aspects behind the society. It can be said that the main creative team uses a unique lens language and story perspective to depict a new world with thousands of faces, showing an endless exploration of what is true good and evil.
When the "super" starring meets the "super" content team to create the top cinema film standard
In fact, nearly three years have passed since the completion of "Super Event", during which the main creative team is still polishing the film, and hopes to eventually create a film with the level of cinema production, and the Shanghai Seven Sages Film and Television Culture that produced this film has also expressed its original intention for making movies: maverick, not in a hurry, not near profit, to do valuable, characterful, dignified, ideal image creation. Judging from the results, "Super Event" can be said to be an excellent film with both emotional tension, image expression and realistic indictment, but such an excellent film is naturally inseparable from the dedicated starring and first-class production team. Speaking of the main actors, Dong Chengming, Qu Aohui and Chen Yihan Estelle, three "super teenagers", also contributed surprising acting skills.
Dong Chengming, who played a poor boy in the film, was once well known to the audience by playing Luo Pan in "Reading Mother", and this time he played the male protagonist of the same name, who was introverted and not outward," which was a very difficult role to grasp, but ChengMing's degree of completion was extremely high, and I believe it would give everyone a lot of surprises; and Qu Aohui, who experimented with Chengming's "bad friend", had obvious personality contrasts and needed to have a strong performance tension, especially the final reversal, Qu Aohui's performance was shocking; and as the only female "super power" in the film, Qu Aohui's performance was shocking. Zi Lin's actor Chen Yihan Estelle perfectly expresses the beautiful qualities of the heroine who have both quiet years and rock solidity, and is the embodiment of the beauty and hope of the film. Throughout the film, all three of them have super-ability to complete the tasks given to the role by the main creative team, and give themselves the unique temperament of the character.
The intersection of reality and illusion, the game of good and evil, I believe that when "Super Event" is released on September 22, it will definitely give the audience a satisfactory answer.
