Help design the fight scene

The shooting of a movie is not based on the progression of the plot.

If the filming is based on the plot, the entire crew may fall into a cycle of going back and forth between several locations.

Take the drama "Sword of Heaven" as an example. Due to the limited budget, the entire crew will only shoot in two locations.

Yes, it's that simple.

The entire 90-minute film was shot in only two locations.

Among them, the scene of Dapeng Bay, a rocky island, will account for one-third of the entire drama.

And of this scene, which occupies one-third of the entire drama, 80% belongs to He Jin.

Among them, in these scenes, there will be most fighting scenes.

As mentioned before, the budget of this film is very small, so I basically don’t think about post-production special effects.

The fantasy film turns directly into an action film.

As for why he would discuss it with He Jin.

He Jin nodded, expressed his apology again, and then walked to Liang Yaoming's position.

"I'm really sorry, I haven't done many fighting scenes and I didn't grasp the intensity."

Because I have practiced martial arts myself, I feel that I can actually do those moves myself.

"You go ahead! I'm fine with that!"

When he decided to make the martial arts scene more difficult, he found that he couldn't design very good moves on his own.

Even if he had practiced martial arts, he would secretly complain endlessly at the end of the day if he kept doing various movements with the wire attached.

However, that was the original plan.

So it was impossible to discuss it with him.

In fact, the crew also has Wu Ma, who is experienced in action scenes.

Half of the reason why he works as an action director part-time is because he wants to make more money, and the other half is due to budget issues.

At noon, the sun was just right, a breeze blew from the sea, and a faint smell of the sea poured into my nose.

The reason is very simple. In fact, Liang Yaoming himself is not proficient in action design.

Fortunately, he had the foundation after all, so Liang Yaoming was very satisfied with the various actions he performed.

It is precisely because there are many things to do.

However, if you get more salary, you will naturally have more things to do.

Just now, when the two were filming a fight scene, He Jin accidentally kicked Liu Xun in the waist.

Director Liang Yaoming shouted there.

And because during an action shooting, He Jin actually came up with an action design that satisfied him. When shooting subsequent action scenes, he would discuss this matter with He Jin.

In fact, simply speaking, she is very beautiful when she swings the sword, which is brought about by her own charm.

But according to the setting of the script, the sword-making girl Honghua is a being who can make even wolves and monsters fearful when she carries the divine sword called Wu Gou.

With that kind of budget, it is simply impossible to hire a professional martial arts instructor or even a team of martial arts masters.

In just two days, his attitude towards He Jin was completely different.

This scene is basically an action scene. The shooting started yesterday. It is only now that the scene has been completed.

Zhou Huimin doesn't have many fighting scenes, but there are several. The one shot today is the first one.

Liu Xun said to He Jin.

He knew the strength of his own feet. Although the kick did not use all his strength, the kick was still heavy on someone, let alone an old man.

His original plan was to simplify the fight as much as possible, that is, to simplify it into the kind of action where the protagonist casually strikes a few times with his sword and the opponent falls to the ground.

But he had very few roles, and after filming one scene on the first day, he left the crew and went to film other scenes.

He Jin apologized again.

He couldn't hold back his strength at the time, so the kick was a bit heavy.

Following Liang Yaoming's click, He Jin and Liu Xun walked towards the rest area with sweating profusely.

When he watched movies before, the martial arts actors in the movies were so majestic that they looked so exciting.

When he first joined the team, He Jin was doing absolutely everything wrong in his eyes, but now, when he was designing moves, he would call He Jin over to discuss it together.

But when He Jin showed for the first time a Kung Fu foundation that only professional martial arts actors possess, he immediately changed his strategy.

"It's okay, it's all work. In our line of work, accidents are inevitable. You don't have to worry."

And the fighting scenes of this film basically depended on He Jin, the male protagonist, so during the subsequent filming, He Jin realized the difficulties of filming.

Liu Xun said with a smile.

When he dances with the sword, he looks like an ordinary person who doesn't know any martial arts. Every slash and slash looks limp, without any strength at all.

The film's funding of 1.5 million yuan, after deducting the bulk of the actors' remuneration, staff, equipment, film, renting the filming location for another part of the film, and even his director's fee, the budget is already very low.

She couldn't even perform a simple sword swing.

"Uncle Xun, I'm sorry just now, please don't worry!"

Speaking of which, although Zhou Huimin has filmed a lot of movies, the action scenes are really bad and give people a headache.

Then when it comes to action scenes, he has to design the actions.

But two days after the filming of "Sword Goddess", He Jin suddenly felt bad.

On the crew, he not only had to watch the filming in person, but if there were problems with the plot, he also had to find ways to make changes immediately.

The next scene is a fight between Zhou Huimin and several wolf monsters.

Therefore, after He Jin showed his ability to design movements, he immediately put aside his previous prejudices and took the initiative to discuss the action design of martial arts dramas with He Jin.

He planned to design the action scenes to look as good as possible.

Zhou Huimin is wearing a red ancient dress, looking innocent and cute.

"Click!"

After she demonstrated it once, not only did He Jin feel a headache, but even Liang Yaoming had a headache.

Unlike when he first joined the team, he was in high spirits, but after two days of filming, he was so tired that his back ached.

Liu Xun (Liu Xun is the one who plays the ninth-grade sesame official eunuch) rubbed his waist and said with a smile:

As he walked, He Jin apologized to Liu Xun.

"You have really heavy feet, kid. You almost knocked my old bones apart."

Therefore, he could only work part-time by himself.

Fortunately, he is used to making martial arts films with Tsui Hark, such as "Once Upon a Time in the Sky" currently being screened, which he has contributed to.

The scene just filmed is about Shi Zhongyu, played by He Jin, coming to heaven to fight with Wu Tian and his party in order to save the red flower cursed by Wu Tian.

Secretly, he even had the idea that if I were to do it, I could do it.

With his previous experience, it is not that difficult for him to be the martial arts director of this fantasy film.

In other words, he received three salaries by himself.

"OK, He Jin, good job!"

"He Jin, come here and let's discuss the scene with Honghua!"

By the way, Liang Yaoming is not only the director of this movie, he also serves as the action director and screenwriter.

Even if she is not strong enough, she definitely has some martial arts skills.

But looking at it now, if it were filmed, it would really disrespect the script.

"I'm sorry, I rarely shoot action scenes, so my moves may be a bit bad!"

Perhaps she felt a little bad, so Zhou Huimin smiled sheepishly.
Chapter completed!
