Is the scene of animal training and confrontation wonderful? marvellous.
Is the scene perfect? not.
From an objective point of view, the creation and presentation of the atmosphere of the whole play really produced a soul stirring effect; But it is also undeniable that there is still room for improvement in the motion capture performance of the four doubles——
From the perspective of the overall situation, lanli easily controls the overall situation, and fully interprets the confrontation between each other, the traction of the aura and so on. This kind of beast intuitive basic performance has no difficulty for today's lanli. The whole process is to enjoy it, and even make minor adjustments in the performance process, The last extension and change of eyes is the extra content.
However, it is obvious that there is still room for improvement in the advance and retreat of opponent play. The four actors can feel the influence of lanli's momentum. Unfortunately, their on-the-spot reaction is still lacking. They can't grasp the opportunity to infiltrate the characters and give the intuitive reaction of animal instinct a more ferocious and direct presentation effect. Their hesitation destroys the primitive brutality of Velociraptor.
Opponent play is often the most intuitive comparative effect, which is good or bad, which is better or worse, at a glance.
Four actors in the performance skills and talent level of the short board, or exposed; But fortunately, this scene is a picture of motion capture technology. Compared with facial expressions, eye emotions and other human details, what we need to capture more is the action and manner. We use body movements to show the emotional ups and downs of the characters, which is also the best part of the stand in actors. They can still keep up with the rhythm of the performance.
At this time, Lan Li is completing the communication of the performance.
"As far as possible, we should peel off human thinking and respond to Owen's scene control in a more primitive and direct way." Lanli expresses his emotions simply by body movements.
"Because it's an instinct. They have established a connection with Owen. Owen can interpret their emotional changes, and they can also interpret Owen's body language, which shows such a situation: because of Owen's body language changes, they can turn their attention from Owen's skull to his eyes, and complete the communication; But they still can't get rid of the hunting instinct of using Owen as food. "
With lanli's explanation, the core of the whole performance and the context of change become clear.
Brad, everyone says that Langley is a talent for acting.
It's very easy to praise Lan Li. Anyway, there are so many articles and comments on Lan Li; But it's not easy to really understand the excellence of lanli, because now lanli has entered a higher level, and the performance aura, performance skills and so on can only be meaningful but also unspeakable.
Today, a relatively simple and direct performance scene makes the four actors feel the control of lanli.
At this time, Samuel could not help smiling when he looked at lanli. He recalled his worry before shooting - he was still worried that their increase in play might take away lanli's aura, but now it seems that there is no need to worry at all. No wonder lanli has always been a understatement.
Langley seemed to notice Samuel's sight and turned around.
Samuel grinned and asked, "blue, can blue read Owen's body language? What is the level of his understanding ability? In my opinion, Blu thinks Owen is not a threat because of the huge difference in size; But Blu also knows that Owen can communicate with himself, so is he willing to treat Owen as food? "
"I think it's a gradual process, remember? Our film is still very long. It's just the first communication between Owen and blu. " Langley's teasing made Samuel laugh directly.
"In my opinion, Blu is like a 12-year-old and 13-year-old - or a 16-year-old and 17-year-old. The specific setting can be more detailed and clear. In fact, he can read a lot of things, but it's not completely clear. Then he is rebellious. Sometimes he just wants to conform to his first idea, but sometimes he can control himself."
Langley's explanation makes Samuel gently jaw up, he needs a little time to digest.
"Lanli, hey, lanli!" Waiting and waiting, only to find that Lan Li and the actors have chatted, Colin finally can't help but take the initiative to come over.
Colin also stood on the outermost layer of the cage, looked at the actors who were "locked in" and said, "I want to discuss with you, can we overturn the remake of this play?"
As if worried about Lan Li's anger, he quickly explained, "it's not because I'm not satisfied with the content of the performance. On the contrary, I think the confrontation between you is very good and wonderful! Beyond imagination! I want to switch the panoramic view to present the overall feeling, just like the game of go. You know, we can see the placement and match of all the pieces, and present the whole dragon. This also means that the relationship between your horns can appear on the screen, and the tense and exciting atmosphere must be very wonderful! "
With that, Colin got excited.
"Not only the panoramic view, but also we can move the camera 360 degrees, just like the Oriental movie, that is, the Hong Kong martial arts movie, which presents the confrontation situation from the surrounding perspective. The martial arts posture of lanli has a special feeling, which mobilizes the relationship between Owen and the four Raptors, and does not need to switch short shots to create rhythm, It's the rolling and rolling of the camera to show the relationship between each other. It's really exciting
Colin was about to jump. He was spewing about the inspiration in his mind. At last, Langley had to interrupt him, "calm down, calm down!" It's like training the Velociraptor, "Colin, first, we need to maintain the photography style and editing style of the whole film; Second, we can't spend too much time on the play. Be careful not to procrastinate. Rhythm is still the most important task. "
It's clear that Colin is a director, but in the end, he needs lanli to control the situation? What's going on?
But it's not so strange to think that Colin is making a long film for the first time.
"Oh, oh." Colin nodded repeatedly, as if he had been hit, muttering "I think it's good" and then stood in the same place and seriously conceived, "otherwise, we'd better shoot with panorama and scheduling to see the effect. I think this kind of rendering effect is more atmospheric and more exciting than editing and splicing. We can't waste your wonderful performance, Isn't it? "
Without waiting for Lan Li to speak, the four actors behind him nodded and looked like marmots. They couldn't wait to express their positivity one by one, because it could increase their performance. Naturally, they couldn't wait.
But Colin looked at him: he needed him to nod. Although Lan Li told everyone that Colin was the one who really made the decision for the crew, the actual situation is also true; But Colin would still subconsciously ask for lanli's opinions, and everything would be done by lanli.
Langley still didn't refute Colin's enthusiasm, nodded his approval, and then added, "Colin, are you going to use panoramic or medium view to compose the picture? If the depth of field is different, we need to adjust our position, make full use of the surrounding environment, and create a sense of the picture, otherwise it will be self defeating. "
Lanli is not a director. In this respect, he is not a professional; However, due to Edith's relationship, lanli still has a basic aesthetic for photography composition. Coupled with years of performance experience, he also knows that the work of director is not as simple as recording performance with camera lens. There are still many details to be worked out. In turn, he puts forward more requirements for actor performance, so he still needs to communicate with Colin.
That's what Colin is good at. He nodded repeatedly, "yes, yes, let's first use the rocker camera to capture the picture, see how the picture feels, and then arrange the position and movement. This scene needs to readjust some positions." With that, Colin can't wait to turn around and get busy.
Although it's time to overturn all the shooting content, Colin is not depressed at all, but is eager to try.
In the crew, you can devote yourself to your work, and any post can find your own fun. This is the most wonderful part.
