The Director of Music Department

Shooting horror movies is indeed very different from other movies, and it may be easier to make a person cry, laugh, sad, etc. However, it makes people feel fear from the bottom of their hearts, but it is a bit difficult, even for the actress-level acting, it is not so easy to do!

Many people think that shooting a horror movie is very simple. It is really an illusion. The audience is the easiest to tell whether a person is really scared or fake.

But when shooting, it is difficult for you to control this emotion. Fear is the instinct of people, but it is really difficult for you to perform.

After all, when an actor is acting in a horror movie, he can't really use a chainsaw, right?

Therefore, it can be said that the most difficult part of making a horror film director is that on the one hand, it is necessary to tell the story well, on the other hand, it is necessary to render the atmosphere of horror through different methods in different clips!

The biggest problem for actors who want to perform well in horror films is that the performance of fear is far more difficult to control than other emotions.

There was a scene in which Reiko Asakawa was frightened. When the heroine was filming, she couldn't make it into the scene. Finally, Wang Yifan listened to a deputy director's suggestion and made a dead mouse before finally shooting the scene she wanted.

The story of "The Ring at Midnight" is definitely not complicated. Four students died bizarrely and reporter Asakawa was sent to investigate...

The context of the story is still very clear, and then the familiar videotape appeared. In the previous trailer, the content of this videotape was also released. It can be said that many people were motivated by that videotape. I came here because I wanted to see the sweat of the people from Toei Tsukamoto Oshima.

And this video tape combined with the storyline, coupled with the wonderful interpretation of Reiko Asakawa when watching the video tape, and the horror atmosphere rendered by the dubbing, etc., so that the audience who watched the video tape more than once suddenly realized that the video tape was watched by itself When I was watching it in the cinema, there were two completely different feelings, one kind of fear from the inside out.

The main storyline of the film can be said to be very simple and clear. The two-hour period is basically a story of a single mother looking for the perpetrator in order to relieve the curse of self and knowledge.

But in the process of watching, as the plot progressed, countless audiences in the theater held their breath, especially the previous videotape. When it first appeared, although there was also a dubbing to render the atmosphere, it actually still failed to reach Everyone's expectations disappointed some people.

It was the scene where Xiao Mu Shangwu was frightened. In fact, when this paragraph appeared for the first time, if it hadn't been for Xiao Mu Shangwu's desertion, he might not have been frightened.

As Xiaomu Shangwu said, he was scared because it was too sudden.

However, as the plot progressed, when this videotape appeared for the second time, the content did not change much. It was still a woman combing her hair in front of the mirror and pitying herself, but the direction changed, making the woman look back. When facing you, you can meet the eyes of the audience through the mirror. Although these changes are not big, the feeling is completely different.

Especially when the red-blooded eye suddenly occupies the entire screen, the hearts of all the audience suddenly shrank, a chill passed through the roof, and the back was sweaty...

This is the importance of atmosphere rendering.

Because of that little change, people will start to replenish their brains involuntarily.

In fact, Wang Yifan has always felt that the most terrifying thing is that Zhijinzi's weird smile. In order to take a good shot of this smile, Wang Yifan took more than 20 shots before selecting one.

Because he didn't know how to use words to describe that strange smile.

However, after being scared, there are still some people who are a little bit confused. Yes, the scene just now scared everyone into a cold sweat, but it doesn’t seem like Wang Yifan said before, after watching it, it might be scared to death. It may scare people to death.

Although this scene was quite scary, it was not so scary.

But soon the film solved the mystery for them.

When Sadako climbed out of the well and finally climbed out of the TV scene, many viewers turned pale.

Especially when shooting this scene, the picture of Sadako climbing is facing the camera, and under the 3D effect, it is like Sadako climbing towards the audience outside the movie screen!

"what!"

"what……"

Many people screamed on the spot, the screams on the scene rang into one, and some even cried out in shock.

At this moment, both the audience and the media reporters have long forgotten their purpose when they came. My head is full of the scene just now. Speaking of it, "The Ring of Midnight" from beginning to end, in fact, Sadako appeared for a very short time, less than a minute, and the whole movie is not like everyone saw before. Arrived. The traditional ghost scares people, but a kind of natural fear from people for the unknown.

Yuko Aso performed the most excessively, not knowing if it was intentional, the drink cup in her hand was frightened and thrown around, but it happened to hit Komaki Shangwu's head.

However, this time, Xiao Mu Shangwu was already scared, but he came again and fell directly to the ground in shock.

What's interesting is that in the whole movie "The Ring of Midnight", the scene of the dead can be said to be absent. It is only when Sadako's body is dug up. Even if Asakawa's ex-husband died, it was told from the side. It's a weird horror movie, a weird ghost movie. The horror is that it is the fear that comes from the bottom of my heart.

The real visual impact is actually not much, but as the plot progresses, the audience is drawn into the horror atmosphere created by the film.

When Sadako's body was found, the audience at the scene was also relieved. Some people who had never read the novel thought that the curse was lifted and the matter was over!

For example, Xiao Mu Shangwu, he has never read the novel "The Ring of Midnight". So he shook his head, wiped the non-existent cold sweat, disdainfully said: "That's it?"

And the second day in the film. It was the eighth day after Asakawa and her ex-husband watched the video, which was exactly seven days later. Takayama Ryuuji is still dead!

Now everyone knew that finding Sadako's body was not the real way to lift the curse!

Not finished yet? Quite a few viewers have a suspicion. People watching horror movies usually have an ambivalent mentality, that is, they are afraid to watch it, but want to watch it again. That's how everyone feels right now!

When Asakawa saw a head-covered man in the reflection of the video tape pointing to her mobile phone on the coffee table. Suddenly I realized why both myself and Takayama Ryuuji had watched the tape, but he was fine, and Takayama Ryuuji was dead, only to realize that those who had watched the video only had to transfer the video to others. You can lift the curse.

However, the four high school students who watched the video together died bizarrely at the same time, and because he forwarded it to Takayama Ryuuji for him to study, that is to say, he transferred the curse to him.

One life for another life! She finally knew that everyone who had watched the video tape could release the curse on her by forwarding it to others.

So Asakawa picked up the phone and quickly made a call to the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, telling him that he had found an important clue and forwarded it to him!

At the end of the dark road, the whole film is over!
