Preface
In the "fast food" rhythm of life, we gradually become impetuous.
And the only thing that can make us feel relieved and stress is watching movies and TV dramas.
People who watch martial arts dramas are hearty, suspense dramas have zero brain cells, and ancient puppet dramas make us have mixed grains.
It can be said that many directors have taken great pains to make everyone pay attention to their works.
Among them, special effects and special shots are indispensable, I thought it was all technology and hard work, but I didn't expect it to be artificially made.
Netizen: Isn't this shooting footage better than the original film?
At the beginning, in the era when technology was not too developed, there were often a lot of "five-cent special effects" shots, but at that time, we watched it with relish.
Just like in the old version of "Journey to the West", the "fairy breath" that Sun Wukong spat out when he rescued Tang Seng was shocked at that time, and thought of thousands of possibilities, but ignored the existence of the prop "smoke".
In addition, there are remakes of "The Legend of the New White Lady", in addition to the classic old version, there is also a version known as the pinnacle, that is, "Green Snake" co-starred by Wang Zuxian and Maggie Cheung.
With the fairy aura, the two goddesses are playing in the pool, and the two actors exude the charm of the woman to the fullest, which looks exactly the same as the "snake demon" who has really cultivated into the essence.
Of course, in addition to the acting skills of the two actors, another important point in the success of this play is that the props and environment are rendered very well.
But when I met the more "picky" crew, when I saw the live photos they took, I couldn't help but want to laugh, just take the bright moon in "The End of the World" There was a bathing scene in the heart of the bright moon, and with the switch of close and distant scenes, it gave people a dreamlike feeling.
But when the details of such a scene are revealed, the funniness is even more powerful than the sketch, I saw that there were several basins of hot water in the pool, and then completely relied on the reflector and post-production to achieve such an effect.
There is also Yang Rong's performance in "Zhong Kui's Monster Hunt", in this drama, there is a scene of Yang Rong taking a bath in the lake at night, and there are many sparkling fireflies around, the atmosphere is simply full, and it has become a dream picture for countless girls.
As everyone knows, except for the actors are real, the water is real, everything else is fake, late night and fireflies all rely on post-production special effects, and even the environment is fake, in a simple green scenery shed, there is only a bucket of water in front of Yang Rong for her to play freely.
In addition, the scene of horseback riding made everyone suspicious the most, at first I only knew that this scene must be fake, after all, it can't be that all actors learn to ride horses in order to film, but their shooting methods are varied.
I don't know if the director was inspired by watching the merry-go-round that children sat on or how, he actually invented a prop horse that is the same as the real horse, I have to say that if you don't look closely, you really can't see it, and the real performance can be regarded as 80%.
There are also people who even use it for the filming of horse riding scenes, a small cart, a large cardboard box, and a long cloak can create an image of a female hero galloping on horseback.
I thought this was fake enough, but I didn't expect it to be trivial in front of the crew who wanted to save money, and people didn't even show up for horses, focusing on a "new horse of the emperor".
At the beginning, the most popular was the horse riding scene of the popular actor Hu Yitian in "The Peerless Twins", in which he wore a white suit, coupled with delicate facial features and a focused expression.
Everyone was immersed in his heroic posture, but they only ignored where the horse he was riding, and in another play, there was no one to set off the atmosphere, the actor rode directly on the person, and the other person held the other side of the reins, and a simple horse was born.
In this way, I have to ask Li Yunlong to praise him, this brain hole is really not remembered by ordinary people!
And this is an ancient drama, when it returns to the modern drama, the indispensable means of transportation has also changed from riding a horse to driving, I thought that this kind of drama could not be faked, but I didn't expect it to be even more outrageous than riding a horse.
Because of the needs of the plot, the protagonist will always encounter some trouble when driving, or he will drive very slowly and leisurely, but whoever is followed by a grumpy master has already scolded, in order to ensure the normal shooting of this scene, the director team also used technology and manpower.
In the movie "Zodiac", in addition to the starring group, there is also an actor who has made many people unattainable with only a high-pitched leg that no one can match, and this acting skill can be rated as an acting textbook-level existence even now.
Because no one can surpass after this, after all, the people after them are not so strong, and they have begun to use "crooked brains", and there is an endless stream of prosthetic legs and prosthetic arms, which are strange and strange, and the fake ones have their own characteristics.
In order to save costs, prosthetics come in handy when filming these clips, just put it on the actor's upper arm, and a half-human and half-demon character is perfectly presented.
In addition, in martial arts dramas that were once full of fights, in addition to the fights between the protagonists, even the scenes of their martial arts cultivation are equally novel, but they never thought that their qigong was blown out by a blower.
and the fragment of Hu Ge riding a boat and playing the flute in the seemingly smoky lake in "Langya Bang" is also really dreamy, really like a poetic and talented ancients who came out of a book.
I thought that this picture must be real, the crew filmed the scene on the lake when it was foggy, but I never thought that this was actually done in the green screen, we don't know if this flute can be played, but it can be seen that Hu Ge's endurance to hold back and not laugh is very powerful.
To say that a good man should be strong-blooded, the princess hugging in the idol drama should have been a very beautiful picture, but I didn't expect that some actors had a "Lin Daiyu" physique, and even hugging the heroine had to be helped by a few people.
If those were really forced to fake shots out of desperation, then a clip of Chen Xiao in "Menghualu" is a bit ridiculous.
In that scene, Chen Xiao originally planned to fall into the valley and climb the mountain, but he didn't expect to go to the steep and rugged mountain cliff for filming, at least it would be good to find a small hillside, but he never thought that it would be a small hillside that was like flat land.
This clip is also known as ridicule, what an "abyss"!
and the new generation of actor Wang Yuan in the TV series, a gorgeous cycling transition has gained the love of many people.
But I didn't know that at the beginning of the transition, the bicycle had already disappeared, and the performance of the transition was not Wang Yuan's riding skills, but the cooperation of the camera teacher and the crew.
epilogue
In addition to these, there are many ridiculous pictures, which also allows us to see the other side of the actor from different levels, no wonder it is said that the actor is not an ordinary person, just with the editor's character who loves to laugh, the path of the actor is destined to have nothing to do with me.
Although it is a fake show, it can better see their dedication to acting, after all, not everyone can be as calm as them on such occasions.
