This star is from the earth

After filming "Extreme Man" [Prank Han Jue Special], Han Jue was not happy to return home, but just as their general manager Wang Zhi insisted, "It doesn't matter whether things are right or wrong, what matters is that you can learn from this matter." What did you learn from the incident?" Han Jue later had a replay discussion when he was playing mahjong with his friends-why do people like to watch this kind of prank videos?

"What else could it be because of a sense of superiority. Watching the people on the screen step by step towards the arranged trap, from the perspective of God, the onlookers spontaneously feel a sense of superiority from being outside the situation." Xia Yuan said.

"It's observation, but it's okay to change it to voyeurism. The production of this kind of theme is actually aimed at the weakness of human nature." Pei Qing said, "This society is either voyeurism or exhibitionism."

"Because it's funny." Jarrence's answer was as simple as his mind.

After Han Jue and Weng Nanxi's old relationship was exposed, the [Prank] video was the latest and only public face-to-face between Han Jue and Weng Nanxi. Every expression and movement of the human body is endowed with mental activity.

When photos of his predecessor and Weng Nanxi's travels were dug up on the Internet, Han Jue was really tired of looking at the carnival on the Internet.

Since the opposite was a large group of melon-eating netizens and Internet mobs, as long as Han Jue said anything other than an apology, no matter what, it would only make the incident worse. Han Jue was wronged and couldn't be willful, but he really couldn't bear this stuffy pot, so he found another way.

The way he thought of was to make a movie.

If the creation of "Network Lost Tracking" is to express the pervasive erosion of people's lives by the Internet, Internet violence, false online interpersonal relationships, and when everyone in the world is extremely connected due to the Internet, the relationship between people The barriers to communication have deepened.

Then "Dark Net" appeared purely because Han Jue wanted to scare everyone, telling everyone, "Your life may also be monitored by others." By the way, I would like to use movies to express the duality of technological development, which is convenient for life and also magnifies the evil in human nature.

The former makes people reflect, and the latter makes people fear.

"After I scare them, I will earn their money." Han Jue said.

Although the creative inspiration of "Dark Web" is very helpless, Han Jue was warned not to tell the media that way, and the exploration of issues in the film is not deep, and it is a real commercial film. But after Gu Yu read the script and listened to Han Jue's description of the film's presentation, he made a decision in an instant. He was going to use all the acting skills he had honed in the past two years to take the role of the leading actor and join the project. Because he understands that the good movie he has been patiently waiting for for two years is right in front of him.

There are two kinds of good movies. One is to make vertical films with connotation, style and expression, represented by literary films. The other is horizontal, broadening the artistic expression of films, represented by experimental avant-garde films.

In the history of film development, the creation of the two methods of "rich scene scheduling in a single shot" and "combining a single shot into a whole with a common direction through montage editing" has made the film truly a film that can undertake complex narratives. And an art form that expresses deep thought.

And Han Jue's new work, with a new narrative method, will have an impact on the traditional film format, and there will be two films at once.

Han Jue called it [desktop movie].

The scene scheduling of [Desktop Movie] tests the post-production "web design" ability.

The clips of [Desktop Movie] will be replaced by [Window Switching], so that the audience will not even realize the existence of the clips during the viewing process.

The cursor is like a hand controlling the viewer's attention.

On the screen, images, pictures and text can be presented at the same time, and all the information can be seen on the desktop at a glance, and the audience can discover by themselves instead of passively receiving information.

The psychological activities of the protagonist can be displayed in front of the audience through [type text] and [delete text]. ...

There are too many things that are different from traditional movies, which makes Gu Yu excited and a little nervous at the same time.

Will the market accept their pioneering film genre? Will the audience pay? Will the critics slam this "uncinematic" movie?

"Second time for the twenty-seventh game, three, two, one... start!" The slate snapped and was taken away, revealing Gu Yu's face facing the computer screen.

The fluorescent light from the computer screen was reflected on Gu Yu's almost plain face, reflecting the shaken eyes and struggling expression on his face. Gu Yu scratched his hair anxiously, shook his head subconsciously, and then said several times in succession, from light to heavy, from slow to urgent: "No, no, no..."

Gu Yu finally blurted out and shouted: "No! Because I lied to you!"

After Gu Yu finished speaking, his expression relaxed, and he was also taken aback.

The set was silent.

Gu Yu just looked at the screen silently, panting, and after a few seconds, he pursed his lips and pretended to smile relaxedly: "Really, this is actually just a prank, I made it up... Kate, you The expression just now was too funny. Ajie, are you confused? Haha..."

"Okay," Han Jue's voice came out of Gu Yu's earphones, "This is over."

Gu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and lay back on the back of the chair.

Another scene ended, and Gu Yu was almost familiar with the filming method of this movie by this time.

The [camera] was hidden from the scene, and Han Jue really used the lens in front of the computer to shoot - the resolution requirement does not need to be very high. In this kind of [desktop movie], the picture is too clear but it is a minus item. Most of Gu Yu was acting in front of one screen, and there were basically no actors in the opposite role. The other actors were locked in other rooms to prepare their respective parts. Everyone's progress was different, and Gu Yu's filming progress was the fastest.

There is no burst of inspiration, no collision of acting skills, only the voice of Xiao Zhou reading aloud lines in the left earphone to match the scene: "We should call the police... Take the computer, let's go to the police. I have a friend who is a policeman..."

Gu Yu listened to the voice and imagined the opponent's play.

Han Jue's instruction sounded from the earphone on the right: "Now look at the lower left corner of the screen, Ajie's position... yes, and now a message prompt pops up in the lower right corner, take a look..."

The eyes must be positioned accurately, otherwise you will have to start all over again.

Acting in front of a bright screen requires actors to use more imagination. It is not easy to follow the instructions and walk between entering and exiting the play. There are many close-up shots, and a slight flaw or distraction will provoke Han Jue to stop.

Although Gu Yu is not from an academy, he has also received training in non-real performances, and has two years of drama experience as a background, so he quickly adapted to the filming method of "Dark Net", which is completely different from other movies. But other actors, especially those who are not from majors, are especially painful.

After seven days, from the initial high morale to the present, some actors have shaken their hearts.

Like Millie.

Millie, who watched Gu Yu's performance, frowned slightly at this moment, worried.

As the filming progressed, her confidence in the movie declined little by little.

Millie was stuffed in by the company for her, and she didn't go through an interview. In order not to be treated differently in the crew, she made a lot of preparations in advance, preparing to fight to the death. She has read Han Jue's "Love Traveler in Time and Space", so she has great confidence in Han Jue, and feels that this turnaround can be fought. But when she arrived at the shooting scene, she found that most of her previous experience was useless, and she didn't even have anyone to act as a rival.

When acting, listening to Han Jue saying "he is waving", "look to the right", "sign language is over" and other prompts outside the stage, it was difficult to continue the performance, and Han Jue called to stop again and again. At first she was afraid that Han Jue would get angry, but Han Jue didn't scold him, but the prompt words became more and more simplified as he repeated it over and over again. She quietly asked the crew, and found that other actors were also very difficult to perform.

There are no similar works, no successful cases, it is completely an experimental film, Millie thought to herself: 【Is this movie really possible? 】

"The situation is very good." Xiao Zhou flicked the shooting watch with his index finger, seeming very satisfied.

Millie turned to look at Xiao Zhou, hesitated for a moment, and whispered, "Xiao Zhou."

Millie knows Xiao Zhou.

In addition to being the director's assistant of the crew, Xiao Zhou is also an actor.

According to the usual practice, he wants to fight for the role of the killer, but "Dark Net" has no killer, only the role close to the killer. Xiao Zhou played a guest role as a plan executor with a mosaic effect in front of the camera. one step closer. After getting the role, Xiao Zhou wore a black sweater and a hood all day long, with a perverted smile, saying that he was preparing for the role. It's a pity that because he was too perverted, Han Jue finished his role ahead of schedule, and he didn't care about Xiao Zhou's rhetoric that he wanted to play with Gu Yu.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhou raised his hood, wondering.

Millie was biting her lower lip to organize her words, but Xiao Zhou was not in a hurry and just looked at her.

Millie's face is exquisite, even among similar and fragile female stars, Millie's face is recognizable.

After organizing the language for a while, Millie asked, "Have you been in another crew?"

She heard that another "Internet Lost Track" filmed by [Tinder] is also a [Desktop Movie]. I really don't know where I got the confidence to make two experimental films in a row.

"Yes." Xiao Zhou replied.

"Is that the same filming over there? Acting on the screen?"

"Yes," Xiao Zhou nodded.

"How long did it take?"

"Twenty days."

When Director Sun filmed "Network Lost Track", the speed was very slow, and the actors were very unfamiliar with the shooting method. Director Sun was the director for the first time, and he focused on stability. Take the lines in the earphones. I also discuss the plot with Jack Jennifer every day, and the materials are well prepared. Fortunately, the production cost is low, and the company is not short of pocket money, so Director Sun can shoot more carefully and more. From Xiao Zhou's point of view, the shooting content that could have been completed in ten days took twenty days.

Millie nodded, and asked again: "How long will the editing take? Did you tell me?"

"Two years."

"Oh..." Millie nodded, her eyes widened suddenly, and she looked at Xiao Zhou, "Huh?! How long has it been?"

"Two years," Xiao Zhou said, "After Director Sun finished filming, the boss told Director Sun that he would be given two years to cut the film..."

Millie hurriedly asked Xiao Zhou: "Then how long will we be filming here?"

"One month." Xiao Zhou rubbed his chin, as if realizing something, "Twenty days of filming, two years of editing, 30 days of filming..."

Millie smiled and said, "That's the end."
