What surprised Nolan?He was amazed at Jia Hongjian's improvement in editing skills!To be honest, Jia Hongjian had cooperated with him before, so could he not know how good Jia Hongjian's skills are?In the past, Jia Hongjian's editing ability was indeed good, but he still had a little bit of "craftsmanship" when he really said it. Why did he say that?Because Jia Hongjian's editing sometimes has individual points that professionals like Nolan can see a deliberate editing, that is, they can't let the industry fully focus on the story and pay attention to other places. A little cathartic enough.Of course, this is not to say that the editing is bad. In fact, if a good editor is out of sync with the director's thinking, this kind of thing will happen!

Generally speaking, ideally, the director and the editor share the same direction in terms of values, have the same level of aesthetic standards, and communicate very well, so the result will be that one plus one is greater than two.At this time, the editing style of the film perfectly matched the type, texture, and atmosphere of the film. It not only fulfilled the function of storytelling, but also complemented each other in terms of atmosphere and emotion.You don't need to know the inside story of this movie to know that it is a project in which the director and editor cooperated very tacitly, and its interior is one.This combination of director and editor can be called the "soul mate" type.When people in the industry see a film that makes people forget the highlights of editing and are only attracted by the story, when professionals become the most purely attracted audience in the theater, instead of watching it with the eyes of their peers soberly When using various professional techniques, what you should encounter is such a combination of gods and couples.Of course, the requirement is that both of them are of a high enough standard, if the two bad guys are in perfect harmony.There will also be a wonderful harmony. For specific examples, you can refer to various bad movies in the United States and even all over the world. Make people laugh or cry!

The second situation is that the director is very sure about his project.The degree of completion of the film is also very high, and the editor is skilled, familiar with the use of techniques, and has a good understanding of the genre. Even if it does not completely match the director's direction from the heart, he can fully complete the director's idea.Such examples can be seen from many Hollywood blockbusters. Even professionals, when they don’t know who made the film and who edited it, can see a very strong director and a good level of teamwork by watching the film itself. editor.At this time, most of the scenes and plots in the movie can see the traces of the previous design.The editing restored his intentions very well, but it was still not seamless enough.This kind of film looks like ordinary people will be very involved, but professionals seem to have less of a feeling of fully substituting, but will also notice some things like professional skills in the film.There is no other reason, it is the lack of chemical reaction in the collision of ideas between director and editor.But this is also a rare good combination, which can be called the five-good family type of "the husband sings and the wife follows".

The third situation is that the director is not sure about his film, and the degree of completion is not too high.But it's not too strong, and I will accept the editor's suggestion.Check and make up for the mistakes and omissions in the early stage, and even re-arrange the story in a large structure.This kind of film generally shows that the material in the early stage is very rich, but there are problems in choosing and choosing. The whole story line is rebuilt in the later stage, and many dialogues of the characters are even changed.The scenes of many plays have been changed, and the background stories of the characters have been rewritten. The final film may still be good in the eyes of ordinary audiences-it still tells a story vividly and vividly.But in the eyes of professionals, it is obvious that something is wrong!To give a nasty example, it's like if a person is bad.Cut off parts of several cows, and then sew them together to form a cow. If the stitched parts are covered with mud or something, ordinary people may see it as a complete cow at a glance, that is, a cow lying on the ground. on the ground.But in the eyes of professional farmers and even butchers, there is something wrong with this cow, it seems a little disharmonious!It's like putting together several cows!This is the sinister vision of professionals!

Even some audiences who like movies and have watched a lot of movies, when they see a good movie, they always feel that something is wrong-"Why didn't the director make this scene a little deeper?" "If The back of that woman walking away is longer and the emotion will be fuller." "When he said this line, it was very touching, but why did the picture cut to someone else's face" - in fact, when you feel this way, it is a senior The audience subconsciously realized that it was a little different from other good movies, and they just encountered such a movie.Those little regrets are like well-made patches. Although it is still a well-fitting dress, it is always found that it has been patched when you look carefully.Such a combination can be called the "half way couple".Although it is also a harmonious family, there are always regrets in the past, and I wish I could not see each other when we were not filming.

Like the third situation, it already makes people feel a little pity, but in fact, this kind of "halfway couple" is just a little friction, life is still harmonious, and they can live together, which is still happy!The remaining "couples" are even more disharmonious in their lives-if the reason for a project is not to "arouse something in people's hearts", it is not because the director has hidden it in his heart for decades and finally A certain sentence or a certain feeling or a certain confession to shout out to the world is just a "bureau" or a certain task-may not be limited to any political task, or it may be a commercial task.Maybe a director is not interested in such a script with such a theme, but he wants to make money, so he accepts such a story. In many cases, the relationship between the editor and the director is just a gamer.

What are bureaus and tasks?These two words may only have such subtle meanings in China, and it is difficult to describe them in one word.Some of them are good, and they can achieve the point of "halfway couples", which makes people feel that they have not done enough, but they can still be watched, and the stories are still interesting.But at other times, some movies make people wonder how they came to the world. Are those investors, producers, directors, producers, and actors all big idiots?of course not.It is very likely that the way these projects appear is for the purpose of making money—some want to make money, some want to be famous, some want to play with culture, and even want to... use some unknown money to invest in such a movie , Lied to be the box office, through paying taxes to turn the shady money into the money that can be seen.Those who want to play with culture are rich, those who want to make money are famous, and those who want to be famous are considered educated, and such a game is completed.There is no awe and obsession with the movie in it, even if the participants are all well-known in the industry, they cannot change the inherent flaw of this project-that is, no one really loves it, everyone just loves what it may bring thing.

If the director is not the organizer, then both he and the editor are here to do a job.Even though all of them have professional ethics, in the process of work, what they think is good, beautiful, and what they need to insist on is often violently interfered and obstructed.Sometimes a long monologue by an actress who is horrible has to be left in, and sometimes other characters who are okay have to be cut - just because these things get in the way of what the creators wanted.In this case, work becomes boring.All you have to do is finish the job quickly, take the money and leave.On the contrary, the director and the editor seem to respect each other in this situation, and no one competes with each other.It’s as if a group of people were digging for treasure, and there were crowds of people waving red flags, slogans and slogans flying all over the sky. Everyone seemed to be full of energy, but everyone knew it but never mentioned it—what was buried deep in the ground was not treasure, but bones.

If you really want to explain it in a way that ordinary people can understand, then the director is making up a story, but the story he made up is fragmented and completely disassembled.What editing needs to do is to control the way such a story is told. In fact, the real storyteller is the editor.So it's actually a weird thing that the real storytellers are not as well known to the general audience, and even the best editors aren't as well-known as the best directors.But in fact, what the best directors hand over to the best editors is just a bunch of fragments. It is the editor who reorganizes and tells such a story bit by bit according to the audience's perspective and from an angle that the audience can understand!So to be honest, the director is like the "original work" in many comic works, that is, the script script, while the editor is the "comic", that is, the person responsible for drawing the text into pictures!

It can be said that the editor is the most important person under the production for whether such a film can have a good box office or not!Of course, except for the stars.But even if you have a big star, but encounter a bad editing, then this must be a bad movie!Why is it said that the editor is the most important person under the producer?To put it bluntly, the editor is a person who is familiar with consumer psychology. He is the account manager who is stationed in the production unit, and he also has the final right to modify it!Only he can make various modifications to the products coming off the production line according to his own understanding of consumers. Doesn't such a person have great rights?Isn't such a person important?Putting such a person in other fields is definitely one of the most important roles in a company!It is estimated that various companies poach each other to poach this kind of person, and this kind of person is not well known to the audience in Vanity Fair like the film industry!
