Feature Shows Extravaganza

There are many classic episodes of Jack.

In addition to Unforgivable Life, there is also The Monster Messenger and the Boy, one of the three major issues of the Showa era.

This is a show that exposes the ugliness of human nature.

The Metzians from the universe made an emergency landing on the earth in their spaceship. After sealing the monster, they rescued the young good boy from the earth. The two of them lived together as father and son day and night. Due to the pollution and erosion of the earth, the people of Metz are getting weaker and need to return to their hometown as soon as possible.

In order to help him, Liang excavated the spacecraft buried underground every day. Because of his unusual behavior, he was suspected of being an alien by the children and adults around him, and was bullied.

After Xiang Xiushu learned the truth, he decided to help Liang and the Metzians. But the surrounding residents are worried. They said: If even the MAT team members don't help us, what should we do if aliens do evil?

So, they decided to strike first. Get rid of this threat before the aliens cause damage. They captured Liang, and the Metzians didn't want Liang to be hurt, so they took the initiative to show up and shouted: Let him go! I am the alien!

Gunfire rang out and the Metzian was shot.

The Metzian died, and the monster sealed by him was able to escape. People dispersed in a hurry, and some people shouted: What are the MAT team members over there doing standing there stupidly? Go and destroy the monsters!

This is the first time Xiang Xiushu refuses to transform.

He had the idea of ​​abandoning the mission. If he was such a human being, why would he need to protect him?

But after being awakened by Zoffie, he gritted his teeth and transformed into Ultraman Jack, destroying the monster in one fell swoop.

The satire in this episode is so poignant that even children, not to mention adults, can reflect after watching it. As a classic Showa drama, Tsuburaya also made a sequel to this story in Membius.

Ultraman during the Showa era was filled with a large number of screenwriters' thoughts on environmental protection, anti-war, human nature and theory of good and evil. In terms of plot alone, it can be called the pinnacle of fantasy tokusatsu dramas.

This is Tsuburaya!

You can accuse him of being unsatisfactory and seeking death, but when it comes to his attitude towards his works, Tsuburaya can definitely be called the conscience of the industry.

To give the simplest example, it is also a Showa work. Can the level of special effects between Guiman and the first Kamen Rider from the same period be comparable?

Leaving aside the special effects, let’s just talk about the area of ​​soundtrack that is easily overlooked. Guiman invited Fuyuki Toru, is the effect of Uncle Wang's Song bad? The knight music of the same period, apart from the opening theme, the interludes basically have no sense of existence.

Than the opening song?

From the music aspect, we can see how thoughtful Tsuburaya is. This is not to belittle the knight. The work is excellent, but Aunt Dong is stingy!

Speaking of which, Uncle Wang's Song is also magical. This song has played from Showa to Heisei, running through more than a dozen Ultraman works, and can be called the guest king in the Ultra music industry.

There are countless versions!

Although it has been adapted many times, as long as the familiar melody plays, the audience can laugh out loud. Uncle Wang is here to guest star again!

This song was born during the Guiman period and is a team song written by Fuyuki Toru for the MAT Team. Probably because both Tsuburaya and the audience liked it, the attendance rate was extremely high.

It was not easy for Meng Lang to copy this classic single. After all, he just kept saying Uncle Wang, Uncle, Uncle and that was it! By the way, Uncle Wang has them all, and Aunt Wang can’t let them go either!

It’s the same song anyway!

This is the first choice for cost-effectiveness! Spend money to make a song and you can use it countless times. It’s a real profit!

Besides, it doesn’t cost much.

About half a year ago, Pengda Film and Television invested in Li Tianming Music Studio, accounting for 62% of the shares! Although you have to pay, it is definitely cheaper to use the left hand instead of the right hand!

When making music, spending money is a trivial matter. The biggest fear is that money is spent but the results are not satisfactory.

Fortunately, the requirements for tokusatsu dramas are low!

As long as you make a good piece of music, you can immediately make many variations to meet your needs. Especially Ultraman's soundtrack, as long as you listen carefully, you will find that the songs are actually the same, just with different variations.

Jack's score is expected to be completed in May. Before that, Meng Lang needed to complete Jack's transformation special effects.

Transformation shots are difficult to shoot!

Because you need to figure out how to use the existing transformer to design a satisfactory effect. Then think of ways to use technical means to realize the design blueprint.

Jack's transformation device is a bracelet!

The transformation steps are roughly as follows: raise your left hand, touch the bracelet with your right hand, and make the red gem face the camera. The red gem emits light, and the transformed person is bathed in the light. He raises his left hand and looks up at the sky. The camera cuts to Jack's appearance.

This transformation is quite simple!

At least it is simpler than the new generation. After all, even if you are taught the transformation process of the new generation, you may not remember it.

Seniors are still more comfortable!

No matter what the transformer is, just pick it up and use it. There is no need to perform a set of military boxing and recite any strange spells.

The most enjoyable one is definitely Showa Rogue.

Especially the original version of Showa O, except for Beidou whose transformation was more troublesome, everyone else was quite neat and tidy.

You can go watch the Super Eight Transformation. The three brothers waited until their hair turned white, and Beidou's transformation has not yet ended...

Meng Lang liked the knight's transformation very much.

Especially the Heisei Knights!

He even felt that the essence of the Heisei Knights lay in the various fancy transformations. Maybe when many people watch Knight, they don't care what the plot is about, they just watch it for the transformation.

Emperor Chong’s transformation made the audience wet!

But if you like it, you definitely can't do this with Jack's transformation method. Putting aside everything else, where can Jack find 20 seniors?

Let’s play with the bracelets honestly!

The super bracelet has been strengthened by Mengzi, and now the level of bugs has skyrocketed. If he's handsome even when he transforms, wouldn't he become PD's biological son?

No, it needs to be weakened!

The way to cut Jack off is, of course, to cut off his transformation funds. Not to mention becoming ugly and vulgar, at least it should look unremarkable.

Just give it light effect!

There is no background blur, and the gemstone sparkle is the effect of using a flashlight. The transformation light effect is made of cheap light particles, and the enlargement effect is captured by the camera from far to near.

Not to mention, it’s awesome when combined!

Don’t be dissatisfied, even though you are trying to save money, you are not sacrificing quality. I learned this trick from Tsuburaya, so how could the effect be bad?

Besides, he transformed more than once!

There are also many transformation shots, especially the transformations in special scenes, the effects are definitely different.

And it can be improved later.

After editing the film, you can add some glare or increase the brightness. Anyway, it’s only a shot of one or two seconds, and it doesn’t cost much to fill it all up.

This is not making a movie!

If it were a theatrical version, Jack's transformation would definitely be better. But TV dramas are limited by TV resolution, so there is no need to be too detailed.
