Chapter 39

I'm going to be a professional in make-up examination. I'm depressed Let's have more recommended tickets.

Other people watched. With the help of Jessica chastan, Murphy removed the stannikon device, put the camera in place, and looked up at the temporary light on the ceiling

Sitting in front of the counter, Kerry Mulligan could not help patting himself on the chest, breathing out a lot of tension on his face.

For the first time, she didn't want to be interrupted by her own mistakes.

Murphy took a look at Kerry Mulligan and had a panoramic view of all this, but he didn't say anything. Kerry Mulligan's acting skills and talent were OK, but he was a real newcomer. He was also young, rebellious and sensitive. At this time, he should be more encouragement than pressure.

He decided to ignore Kerry Mulligan for the time being and solve the lighting problem of the temporary studio first.

In fact, from the beginning of the shooting, Murphy found that there was a problem with the lighting on the scene, but it continued until more problems were found, and then he stopped.

"John..." Murphy called his lighting engineer Douglas, "the lighting needs to be completely corrected."

With that, he took a look at Douglas and could only sigh that every cent is the absolute principle. The lighting engineer hired cheaply is really average.

As early as in the early stage of planning to check the venue, Murphy told him the precautions for lighting. When no actor appeared on the stage, it looked good through the camera lens, but after Kerry Mulligan appeared in the camera, the picture could not achieve the expected effect.

However, Murphy didn't get angry and didn't say much. After all, the shooting effect produced by the live lighting is not only related to the lighting arrangement of the lighting engineer, but also related to the change of the environment. The appearance of Kerry Mulligan in red on the set will also affect the color effect of the light.

"I told you before." Murphy held her chest in her hands, looked up at the main light hanging on the ceiling and the auxiliary light on the floor, and then said, "this movie we shot can be classified into the ranks of black movies! John, the light you're using is too bright and soft. "

The use of lighting in low-cost black movies like "fruit candy" is a profound and complex work, but it is extremely important for filmmakers and actors.

Due to the limitation of capital and technology, some filmmakers have created black films, but this does not limit their talents, which makes lighting become a very important role in black films.

Murphy once studied this aspect, so he chose this type of film as the beginning of the whole plan. Different from the bright light just seen through the camera, the dark light is the proper lighting for the film "fruit candy".

Douglas is not completely powerless. After a while, he pointed to a row of headlights on the ceiling facing the counter and said, "it should be better to change the setting of the main light."

In the "three light distribution" of the main light, auxiliary light and backlight commonly used in film shooting, the setting of the main light is usually the brightest, which is why it is called the main light.

"No, no, no..." Murphy shook his finger. Dissatisfied with Douglas Rice's proposal, Murphy went to the counter for a turn and said, "not only the main light, but also the auxiliary light. In addition, a little background light should be added appropriately."

The auxiliary light is usually set opposite to the main light to dissipate the shadow produced by the main light; the backlight is used to illuminate the outline of the whole scene and distinguish the subject from the background.

In this way, we can make Kerry Mulligan stand out in the whole scene and emphasize her identity as the heroine.

Seeing the helpless Douglas, Murphy sighed that the dark film should not only use dark lighting, but also the light should be hard enough, and said, "the main light can use halogen lamp, so that the main light will only be emitted from one point, the light will be harder, and the hard light can highlight the clear outline of the female main angle."

Lighting division Douglas obviously inexperienced, just constantly nodding records.

Murphy went to the side of the auxiliary light shelf on the floor opposite the main light, and said, "the auxiliary light is replaced by a frosted light bulb, which makes the light softer. It highlights the outline of the heroine and makes her more attractive."

The relative use of hard light and soft light can be said to be the symbol of black film lighting.

See Murphy finish, Douglas went to his toolbox, ready to debug according to his method.

"John, wait a minute." Murphy stopped him. After all, he was not sure whether these methods would work. He turned to old Lynch and waved. When he came, he said, "is there a stick in the shop? A longer stick will do

"Yes,"

old Lynch was dazed when he heard the series of technical terms just now. He felt that Murphy was not only insidious and mean, but also a person with real ability. At this time, he didn't shirk responsibility and called to a shop assistant, "bring the long stick of the back kitchen."

The stick was quickly sent to an intern in the crew.No matter how well we had imagined before, we couldn't find out the problem without shooting on the spot. Murphy totally rejected the lighting plan, overturned the lighting layout of the shooting site in the coffee shop, and the boom played a role at this time. A working light bulb was fixed at one end of the boom, and the position could be changed at any time, so that we could detect the object from different directions before lighting The lighting effect of the scene.

An inexperienced director, leading a group of staff who also lack successful experience, will inevitably take a lot of detours in shooting.

The lights haven't been set yet, and noon is just around the corner. According to the agreement signed between the crew and old Lynch, lunch and drinks are provided by Milton cafe for free.

If you work hungry, it will affect your work attitude. Murphy doesn't believe that these people can work hard without food.

At the end of the morning's work, let the crew have dinner first. When Murphy had a free lunch, he was a little anxious because of his mistakes and was in a slightly better mood.

Making mistakes means wasting time; wasting time leads to over spending

"Free lunch, my favorite."

"It means I can save a lot of money," says Kara Firth, who sits at a coffee table eating fruit salad across the way

Carla Firth looked at her salad without looking up. "You're going to die."

"I don't want to," Murphy's words with a touch of helplessness, "no money people can only choose."

As the morning went by, he was even more skeptical that $300000 would be enough.

Originally, Murphy had regarded his ability as low enough and estimated that he might encounter enough difficulties. When he really started to operate, he found that he was still too optimistic. It took several hours to solve the problem of lighting alone

Think of here, Murphy's face more or less appeared a little sad.

Carla Firth looked at him, put down her spoon, took out a tissue, wiped her mouth, threw another one to Murphy, and said, "I've been promoted to vice director of channel 6, still in charge of the news business."

Murphy looked at her in surprise. Is the promotion too fast?

"Congratulations." He said.

"Yes, I should thank you." Carla Firth put her hands across the table. "Without the bill road incident, I might still be the director of the nighttime news department. You helped me open the road."

Putting down the knife and fork, Murphy picked up the tissue and said, "how are you going to thank me?"

Finish saying, deliberately change into strange eyes, up and down looking at Carla - Feisi tall graceful body.

"I don't have a supervisor position here." Carla Firth doesn't like it at all. As the old saying goes, "I need someone who is energetic, responsible and adventurous."

Murphy thought, "if my project fails, I'll think about it."

Carla Firth shrugged and said nothing more.

The people on the opposite side helped her a lot, and she appreciated him very much. There was a certain friendship between them, which prepared a way for him.

Murphy knew that, and Carla Firth knew that Murphy understood what she meant.

They gradually became silent, only occasionally making some eye contact. On a table not too far away from Murphy, a pair of bright eyes would look over from time to time.

Kerry Mulligan sat in a high back chair, dug up a spoonful of beans, put it into his mouth, and swallowed it without chewing a few times. James Franco, sitting at the same table, immediately reminded him, "Hey, eat slowly, be careful to choke."

"You're in charge!" Kerry Mulligan did not stare curiously at James Franco and asked the intern on the left, "Paul, who's that woman?"

"Which one?" Paul Wilson didn't understand who she was talking about.

Kerry Mulligan winked, "the man sitting opposite Murphy."

Paul Wilson shook his head. "I don't know him either."

"I know." James Franco said, "I know her."

"Who is she?" Kerry Mulligan couldn't help wondering, "is Murphy's girlfriend?"

"No..." James - Franco belittled without trace, "Murphy all the money invested in our film, now is a poor man, which woman will be stupid enough to see him?"

"That's Murphy's pursuit!" Kerry Mulligan argued, "dare to pursue their own goals regardless of everything."

James Franco showed a slightly sarcastic smile, "ha ha..."

Kerry Mulligan immediately stares at him. "I don't want to talk to you anymore."

"Hey, honey," said James Franco discontentedly, "don't forget, I brought your lunch box for you, and I prepared the water you drank in the morning for you too..."

"I didn't ask you to do it!"

Before he finished, he was interrupted by Kerry Mulligan, "if you don't want to do it, no one forces you.""I'm going to get ready." She jumped out of her chair and went to the makeshift dressing room.

Seeing off Carla Firth, Murphy announced the start of work in the afternoon. There are still many difficulties.
