In movies and TV series, we often see some shots with only the upper body, which confuses the audience. In fact, there's a reason why these shots only shoot the upper body. Let's reveal the secret.
can't hold it, today's boys don't even have the strength to walk with an actress who can't hold 90 pounds. In some costume dramas, because you can't hold it, you can only find another way. The actor is easy, and the shooting effect is also achieved. Hugging a princess seems like a lot of work, and most of the actors look ferocious after 2 minutes of hugging. Some people say that there are too many "virtual men" in the entertainment industry, but some people try to find that they still can't do it. When Lin Gengxin cooperated with Zhao Liying, Zhao Liying was only 88 pounds. The first link, the holding time is short, but it is actually okay. But once it's too long, you really can't hold it. The actors couldn't help but laugh too. The so-called boyfriend power is just a presentation under the camera switch, and the majority of girls should not complain that they can't hold your husband-to-be at the wedding scene.
Horseback riding is a difficult technical job. That year, it took nearly half a month for the crew of "Huanzhu Gege" to ride a horse. Riding a horse is also prone to falling. For a TV series, it's really not worth throwing the actor down. Therefore, the crew tried everything to create an atmosphere of horseback riding, but did not allow the actors to really touch the horses. When funds are insufficient, a Trojan horse can also be used. In the martial arts drama "The Peerless Double Pride", the male protagonist is flawless, leading everyone to gallop on horseback. The whole scene looks ridiculous and especially awkward. Of course, the audience can't see these scenes, and can only shoot the upper body.
The height is not high enough, and it is enough not to dare to shoot the lower half of the body. For example, earlier, when Wu Lei and Zhang Zifeng collaborated on "Midsummer Future", there was a practice of "splitting" in order to accommodate Zhang Zifeng's height. If the actor is too tall, he is in distress. Of course, it's also painful for an actor to be too short. When you meet a tall hostess, you also have to work on the props. Similarly, the heroine, who is less than 160 tall, will be embarrassed. Increase the wearing of shoes. The board is padded up. In order to express the "Su feeling" of intimate scenes, only the upper body can be filmed.
Due to the fact that the weather is too hot or special effects are needed, the upper body can only be filmed in the show. In the costume drama in the hot summer, the thick top has been put on, and the pants have been passed again, and I am really going to suffer from heat stroke. The summer modern drama is also unbearable. Of course, you must keep warm when shooting scenes in winter and summer. It is also to ensure the health of the actors. There are also some scenes, in order to match special effects and other needs, the lower body cannot be exposed. For example, the bathing scene. It's like this in the TV series. The actual shooting is like this. It is not easy for the actors to soak flesh-colored clothes in water.
To sum up, there are some shooting techniques that are okay. For example, the lower body of an actor needs to be kept warm due to weather issues, which is understandable to the audience. But there are also some that are due to the unprofessionalism and dedication of the actors. For example, they can't hold an actress or ride a horse. These issues deserve attention and improvement. I hope that future movies and TV series will be more authentic and professional, so that the audience can see more wonderful works.
