Coquettish Rebirth

After some in-depth discussions, after discussing with Jia Hongjian, Spielberg and Jia Hongjian finally decided not to hire a better editor.The main reason for making this decision is that there is basically no one in this world who can cut the love clips in line with Nolan's cold and fast front and back clip style without enough material!To put it bluntly, how many people in this world can make love episodes into a grim style?If love doesn't include breaking up, revenge, framing, etc., how can it become cold?

After all, love needs to be warm, how can coldness be love?So when it comes to this matter, we can’t blame the lack of good editors in this world to cut it. After all, this thing was shot by Nolan, and the materials he gave were made according to his style, or they were cut like Jia Hong. Gradually, the emphasis on love disrupts the overall structure of Nolan's films.Or, it can only be said that it was cut according to Nolan's style, but if it is cut according to Nolan's style, no matter how this love story is cut, it will be strange!

So, in the end, the question becomes whether to destroy the overall style of Nolan's film.So why did Jia Hongjian and the others choose to finally maintain Nolan's film style?It's very simple, because this is Nolan's film!Not someone else's film!The so-called suspects don’t need to use people, since Nolan has already been used, since we have already spent a lot of money to shoot the movie, and we are waiting for the post-production, then we might as well just keep Nolan’s reputation. This style, after all, Nolan's historical situation has proved that his ability is possible.Even for a powerhouse like Spielberg, if he doesn't know how to shoot love scenes.It doesn't mean they can't make a lot of money, right?

If you want to modify it, then you have to find another director to overthrow it all and re-shoot it.Because even if the actors are brought back to make up the show, it is very likely that it will be impossible to shoot love scenes that can match the previous and subsequent scenes.So if you want the love segment to be in the same style as the whole film, then either you have to make the love segment the same as the other segments, or you have to make the other segments the same as the desired love segment—that is to say, you can directly recreate it. Find a director to overturn everything and shoot it all over again.

And if you do this, the overall investment is too big, and it will hurt Nolan too much!Didn’t Jia Hongjian have thought about it before? Since Nolan has shortcomings in filming love scenes, he can make the movie box office in his hands exceed one billion dollars worldwide, so Jia Hongjian must win over him well. Nolan.Then why is it necessary to find another director to replace Nolan and push all the filmed materials to rework?Isn't this contradictory?

So at the end.After discussing with Spielberg, Jia Hongjian decided to hand over the film entirely to Nolan, or to make the overall style into Nolan's style.After making such a decision, Nolan was very anxious.Or a little flattered.He never thought that he could be so favored!Now he is actually just a little famous.It's just a director who has proved his talent a little bit through a literary film.He hasn't proven himself in the commercial market, after all, he hasn't even made a movie with an investment of tens of millions!But, even in this case.Jia Hongjian invested him [-] million yuan to make a movie, and when his own shortcomings were accidentally exposed in his movie, Boss Jia was still willing to believe in him and hand over the style control of the entire movie to him. To him, what kind of trust is this?

To be honest, Nolan himself finds it unbelievable. He even thinks that if he is Jia Hongjian, if he finds out that such a rookie director is not as good at making love scenes as his boss, he will never be generous. The future of a film with an investment of [-] million US dollars is handed over to such a small director!After all, this is money, this is business, this is an investment of [-] million US dollars!Isn't it always said in Hollywood that a business is a business, and you can deny your relatives for the sake of business?It's not that the director of the film company can still call a well-known big star a brother or brother, or even treat him as his own father, but a second later, when the big star is no longer famous, the boss of the film company will just pretend not to know him Is this the former big star?Why did Jia Hongjian look nothing like the legend?

Nolan thinks that this may be because Jia Hongjian is Chinese—in his eyes, China is a very mysterious oriental country, and the people there seem to be living in the 19th century, while the people of the 19th century Even the western ones are more loyal... Well, he didn't think Jia Hongjian was an old fashioned thing, but he said that Jia Hongjian perfectly reproduced many virtues that Europe and the United States have always advocated before—like humility and humility. Trust is like commitment like loyalty, these things are also virtues in Europe!It's just that many people don't implement it now, but everyone will not deny the virtues of these things!

Of course, at the same time, Nolan also felt a great trust - a trust worth [-] million US dollars or even [-] million US dollars or more!He knew that if Jia Hongjian hadn't hired him to make this film, if he had found some other good director, then he might have paid Jia Hongjian an investment of [-] million U.S. dollars, and then [-] million U.S. dollars. box office!So speaking of it this way, isn't Jia Hongjian giving up the possibility of earning [-] million US dollars at the box office and choosing to believe in Nolan?How could this not make Nolan feel a heavy trust and a heavy burden on his shoulders?

That's right!Nolan swore secretly that Mr. Jia must not lose money, or even make Mr. Jia less!Must let Mr. Jia earn [-] million box office or even more!Only in this way can Mr. Jia not lose the box office, only in this way can he be worthy of Mr. Jia's training and trust!You must know that when he was still an unknown little director, before "Memory Fragments" was released, it was Jia Hongjian who overcame the opposition and agreed to let him direct the current film!This is definitely a kind of cultivation and a kind of trust, and he, Nolan, will never allow himself to disappoint or lose Mr. Jia!

So, in the next few days, this Nolan is almost at the end of the day when he has a little bit of Dayu's control of the water and never enters the house!After the material was shot here, what should have been done was to contact the post-production special effects producer.Then give them the film clips that need special effects, and then tell them what effect is needed in what place, and the general concept of how to make the dynamic picture.Then, the special effects producer will give a shot script. Simply put, it is to show the director the effect of the computer special effects they think of through simple drawing to see if the director is satisfied.If you are satisfied, then you will enter the real special effects production process and start making special effects frame by frame.

And in this case, how did Nolan go through the house three times without entering?To put it simply, Nolan himself is relatively old-fashioned.He doesn't like special effects in movies.And it's not good at making big scenes!In fact, he is a director who likes to be a little fast spirit, and he likes to be a stern style. He can't play big scenes!If you use historical movies to compare, Michael Bay, an incompetent director who was evaluated by film critics as being able to blow up.In 98, they spent 1.4 million US dollars to shoot "The End of the World".That is, the one in which Bruce Willis plays an oil rig worker who is transported to plant a nuclear bomb on an asteroid that crashes into Earth.Compared with Nolan's later "Batman - Beginning of War", which is the first part of the "Batman" trilogy, the investment is similar!Although there is a gap of 5 years, there is a factor of currency depreciation.But how big is Michael Bay's scene?And in the first step of "Batman", what kind of big scene did Nolan spend so much budget on?

It can be said that Nolan spent all his money on setting up the real scene, so he had no money at all and didn't have much creativity on how to make a big scene, which led to such a result!So in the process of filming the "Batman" trilogy, after Nolan discovered his shortcoming, in order to exercise his ability and experience in cooperating with computer special effects, he thought of making "Inception" into such a What a look!It was only then that I thought of verticalizing the street, and using this visual effect to match and unify his style, so that he can also create a big scene!

But now, under the stimulation of Jia Hongjian's trust, Nolan didn't even say that after finding Pixar under Dreamworks who was in charge of special effects, he just talked about what style he wanted, and then let the people below Go get a storyboard.He directly started to create the storyboard script by himself, he just wanted to try out various big scene ideas through painting first!He wants to repay Mr. Jia with a big scene, attract more audiences with a big scene, and repay Mr. Jia with a high box office!

He still remembers the comic-style storytelling method Mr. Jia said before—for example, when Tang Seng was surrounded by sand thieves, he kept preventing Monkey King from appearing, and then let the robbers kill them with knives. When rushing towards Tang Seng, I changed another lens to shoot Sun Wukong eating sand dates and so on in a far away place, then got up slowly lazily and pretentiously, and then flew into the air with a sudden jump, which even caused a super shock. Sonic boom!Finally, when the robbers' knives were only [-] centimeter away from Tang Seng's head, Monkey King arrived!When the monkey came over from the air, it didn't hit the ground, just like a baseball player holding a golden cudgel and hitting the sand thief who was about to hit Tang Seng with a home run!Then it suddenly fell to the ground, and when it landed, it was like a one-ton big iron ball hitting the ground, directly smashing out a big hole in the ground!

The scene described by Jia Hongjian is very similar to the storyboarding method of comics. It can be said that the rhythm of the whole scene is quite well grasped!Before creating a sense of tension and suspense, and then when the danger is approaching the most critical moment, Monkey King descends domineeringly, and that kind of refreshing rush is really admirable!Movies generally seldom use this kind of splitting method, but it is used more in comics, because the images in comics are not coherent, and there is no music to set them off, so they can only maximize the impact similar to freeze-frame images!

This kind of thing is not familiar to Nolan, and now, in order to be familiar with this style, in order to be able to do a better job in the big scene to match Mr. Jia's creativity, how many American and Japanese he bought back? My comic book, I keep reading comics all day long and learn the storyboarding method, and then I keep drawing the storyboards!It can be said that because of Jia Hongjian's series of actions, Nolan actually started researching and learning how to make big scenes almost 10 years earlier than in history!
