After rehearsing several times, the actors became more skillful in their performances and the operation of the rocker arms became smoother.

It's time to take a photo!

Zhang Ran picked up the step-by-step phone and issued an order: "Each group is ready, and the real shots are started below!"

As Zhang Ran's command rang, the arm operator controlled the boom and slowly supported the car model into mid-air; the photographer aimed the camera at the car model in mid-air; personnel who were unrelated to the shooting exited the shooting site, and the crew prepared to take the official shooting.

Zhang Ran took a deep breath and said loudly: "Now we are officially shooting, turn on the filming!"

"Play the board!"

"start!"

As the command to "start" sounded, everyone in the crew entered the state and began to shoot formally.

The rocker arm began to rotate and slowly turned towards the camera from a distance. The two rocker arm operators carefully controlled the speed of the rocker arm and kept moving at a constant speed. The car must be at a constant speed, one at a fast and one at a slower time, which is a car accident.

This lens does not require radio, so Zhang Ran did not look at the monitor at all. He stood directly next to the camera and directed loudly: "Continue to turn the rocker arm, pay attention to controlling the speed! Start to drop, drop!"

"Very good, keep dropping!"

"Stay on speed!"

The rocker arm continues to rotate, and while it is rotating, it is also slowly landing. During this process, the photographer concentrates on controlling the picture, making the camera's picture at its best.

The rocker arm quickly landed on the ground, and the car model stopped steadily on the ground. Cui Xinqin opened the car door, walked out of the car, walked towards the camera lens, and then passed by the camera and walked out of the picture.

"Stop!" Zhang Ran shouted, with excitement in his words.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhang Ran. Whether this shot could pass must be concluded by him.

Zhang Ran played it back and nodded with satisfaction. The actors were moving in a very accurate manner, the performance was good, and the overall effect was excellent. He stood up and announced loudly: "Very good, this shot has been done!"

Shooting—

All the staff at the scene applauded. Everyone knew that this shot was very difficult to shoot. If the speed was not controlled well, they had to start over. Unexpectedly, it passed in one go.

To be honest, Zhang Ran prepared a day for this scene and planned to complete these scenes in one day, but he didn't expect that it would be finished so quickly. Thinking about the crew that was messy when filming micro-films before rebirth, Zhang Ran had to sigh that it was easier for professionals to use.

Zhang Ran looked at the time and it was only eleven o'clock. He immediately found the producer director: "Call Yang Zhi's parents and ask if Yang Zhi can come this afternoon. If possible, film Yang Zhi's car collision scene in the afternoon!"

...

"Hello, uncle director!"

Looking at the little girl with a comb in front of her, Zhang Ran nodded with satisfaction. The girl had big smart eyes, a slightly baby fat face with dimples that were faintly visible, and smiled would give people a sweet feeling.

"Don't call me uncle, call me brother!" Zhang Ran touched Yang Zhi's little head, pointed at Hu Jun beside him, lowered his voice, and said, "Those who are very old are called uncle, do you know?"

Yang Zhi shouted obediently: "Brother Director!"

Hu Jun next to him said with a look of embarrassment: "Isn't this good, director? Then aren't you going to call me uncle?"

Everyone around him laughed, only Zhang Ran was stunned.

Yang Zhi immediately said to Zhang Ran: "Director brother, I also call him brother!"

Zhang Ran was so happy that he touched Yang Zhi's head: "This kid is so smart, so well-behaved!" Then he bent down and said: "Yang Zhi, when you grow up, you will take the college entrance exam, take the Peking Film Academy, and take the class, okay?"

Yang Zhi tilted her head and said, "I want to take the entrance exam for Tsinghua University and become a scientist when I grow up!"

Zhang Ran laughed: "This kid has ambition. It's good to be a scientist, so you can work hard! But if you want to be an actor, you can take the exam for our Beijing Film Academy and our class!" As he said that, Zhang Ran stared at Yang Zhi and said seriously: "Okay, let me tell you what we are going to shoot today!"

...

In "Prisoner of Time", the little girl was hit by a car several times. If she was hit in one way, it would appear monotonous. Therefore, Zhang Ran designed several actions for Yang Zhi to be hit.

In fact, there are many ways to shoot a car that hits a person. The simplest way to shoot a TV series is. When a person runs into the middle of the road, a light hits a person's face, and then a "ah" scream, and then the sound of a car brake, the next shot will fall into a pool of blood. The filming method of a movie is more complicated, especially when shooting a more realistic effect. Generally, it is combined with seven or eight slitting lenses to create the effect of a car crash.

Zhang Ran plans to complete it through one shot, showing the entire process of the little girl being hit by a car in one shot, without dividing the shot, so that the sense of reality is the best. Because the more realistic the shot is, the greater the impact on the person's heart. Of course, to achieve this effect, you can only use green screen to shoot and then synthesize it later.

Among all the collision methods designed by Zhang Ran, the easiest thing to take is that the little girl walked to the middle of the road and suddenly a car rushed into the picture on the side, knocking the person out of the picture; and the most difficult thing is that when she was hit, the person rolled in the car a few times and then rolled out of the car.

Zhang Ran and the others planned to film the simplest way to crash first. Yang Zhi was too young and had no experience in acting like this, so she had to give her an adaptation process.

The way to shoot this kind of lens is very simple. Yang Zhi ran towards the large green cloth upright. When she ran halfway, she made a tilt backward action. In the later stage, she was cut off by the green background and merged with the camera that was galloping by the car, making people's bent backward next to the front of the car. The car drove forward and the person also moved forward, and a shot of the scene being knocked out of the car was completed.

The filming officially began. Yang Zhi controlled her stride and ran towards the green screen with a sweet smile. After two steps, she leaned back and made a tilt back.

"This shot has been done!"

The tight-down camera will be difficult. Yang Zhi will be hit by the car and then roll down from the car and fall to the ground without moving.

The props team pushed out the props needed for shooting. A flatbed cart was placed on it. Simmons had two beds of cotton wool on it, and a huge piece of green cloth wrapped the cotton wool and Simmons.

Zhang Ran pulled Yang Zhi to her and explained to her: "Wait until you go forward, then the uncle of the yard will push the car to hit you. When you hit you, you go to Simmons, then roll down, lie on the ground without moving. Do you understand?"

"I understand! But, brother of the director is a trolley, not a car, can it be taken? " Yang Zhipian looked at Zhang Ran with a puzzled look on his face. He couldn't figure it out. It was a trolley, how could it turn into a car?

"Of course, I'll tell you what's going on after the filming is over. Now I'll show you a demonstration and see how I did it!" Zhang Ran walked to the center of the venue and asked the two yard workers who were responsible for pushing the cart, "Be ready, I'll go forward, and you'll push the cart and hit me!"

"Okay, director!" The worker was ready.

Zhang Ran took two steps forward, and the farmer pushed the cart to hit Zhang Ran, and hit his leg. Zhang Ran fell directly on Simmons, rolled twice, and then landed on the ground.

Simmons put on his body and felt soft when rolling on it. When he fell off the car, his elbow hit the ground, which hurt a little.

This is a problem, the little girl must be careful not to fall.

Zhang Ran called Yang Zhi over, gave some guidance, and asked her to rehearse. The car was Simmons, and it was covered with cotton wool. It was very weak. Not only did it hurt when it fell on it, but it felt very comfortable. The little girl rolled around on it, and she had a lot of fun.

After rehearsing several times, Yang Zhi was taken to put on makeup after she became proficient in her movements.

Zhang Ran explained to the two cart workers, then exchanged opinions with the photographer with the storyboard, and determined the camera again. The others were also busy, preparing for the actual shooting.

"Zhang Ran, can this work? The rehearsal just now didn't look very real!" Zheng Dongtian felt that the rehearsal effect was not very good. I won't mention the rolling speed and height. The key is that the whole movement doesn't look very natural.

Zhang Ran smiled. It is normal for an old filmmaker like Zheng Dongtian to have doubts about the effect of green screen shooting before he saw the real effect. In fact, as long as there is enough technical support, green screen can create a magical effect beyond imagination. This kind of collision shot is so simple that it cannot be simpler!

Zhang Ran smiled and comforted: "Teacher Zheng, don't worry, there will be no problem. This is a very simple technique, just leave it to the later stage to handle it, and it will definitely be done."

Zheng Dongtian frowned when he heard this, worried that Zhang Ran would go wrong: "Special effects are good things, which can create magical effects, but we cannot make special effects for the sake of special effects, so it will be out of the essence of the movie!"

"Thank you for your reminder, I will keep this in mind!" Zhang Ran nodded, and he agreed with Zheng Dongtian's words. More than ten years later, many viewers complained that Hollywood blockbusters are becoming increasingly ugly. The reason is that many special effects blockbusters, in addition to shocking special effects, stories are often thin.

Zheng Dongtian didn't say much. He knew that Zhang Ran was a smart person, and smart people didn't need to say too much.

Yang Zhi quickly put on her makeup and stood in front of the green screen. The relevant personnel of the crew were quickly in place and were ready to start the actual shooting.

Zhang Ran grabbed the microphone and shouted loudly: "Each group is ready! Start!"

The camera lens faces Yang Zhi from the oblique side. From this angle, the street will be a diagonal line, that is, a diagonal composition. This composition has a strong sense of depth. This composition is often used in large scenes. Zhang Ran adopts a diagonal composition mainly to capture the entire process of people colliding.

Yang Zhi ran forward happily, and the two yard workers pushed the trolley and hit her directly, hitting her. Yang Zhi fell on the cart, rolled around, then rolled down from the trolley, lay motionless on the ground.

"Stop, the performance is great!" Zhang Ran picked up the microphone and shouted. He was very satisfied with the performance. This child is really good and has a talent for acting!
Chapter completed!
