Chapter 810 It's just a test of the water!
Li Zhifan is really standing too high, so the public's expectations for him are also very high.
So Li Zhifan said, "The shooting of "Avatar" is very simple." He doesn't really think that the filming technology of this movie is not difficult, but on the contrary, it is very difficult. At least many technologies can only be completed by Hollywood special effects teams. The purpose of saying this is to reduce everyone's expectations.
When everyone's expectations are reduced and they feel that the movie "simple" shot will no longer copy the previous height, the movie will only bring a stunning feeling after it is officially released.
If you let everyone look at this movie at the highest level, it will easily lead to a gap in the viewing experience and cause various destruction.
In addition to the sentence "The filming of "Avatar" is very simple", Li Zhifan will also make various uneasy actions in the future, secretly contacting all self-media and public accounts to create the illusion that "this is just an ordinary and simple movie, Li Zhifan's test work when he first entered Hollywood."
It's so cold that it's so cold!
When Li Zhifan sighed this sentence, he really felt that he had climbed too high. After all, among the Chinese stars around the world, he was the first to enter Hollywood and stand in this position.
...
Two weeks later.
The casting work has been completed, and the online voting activity of the heroine has also ended.
The first place in the vote was a Hollywood actress named Emma Fanning. Although she was born in Brazil, she was an absolute white girl with both French parents.
Emma Fanning's experience of winning the first place was also very thrilling. She almost fell out of the top 30 before, but after advancing, she went smoothly. Finally, in the first five in the final battle, she won the first place with a big score and a big vote.
As for Liang Wei, who had been struggling to vote before, she was eliminated when she advanced to the top 20, which is a pity.
However, Li Zhifan still sent her an invitation letter to participate in a small supporting role in "Avatar". Unfortunately, her agency directly refused and believed that this was a disgraceful appearance.
Since the character has been selected, the shooting date has also been put on the agenda.
Unlike the theater release version that audiences in different worlds think of, Li Zhifan is going to shoot the 178-minute extended version of the second round of the show, because the release version is not the most perfect display of "Avatar". Only the 178-minute extended version can be called an epic movie.
The 178-minute version of "Avatar" can almost be drawn from the category of science fiction films that have been despised. Specifically, the difference from the 162-minute theater version. In the 178-minute full version, the plot added is much more than the "better than nothing" Neville-style **, but also many small details that complement the story coherence. Large paragraphs include hunting scenes and memories of the old Neville school, while small paragraphs include some shots.
Especially in the full version of the hunting scene, there is a creature that has never shown its face in the theater version, and can cut off the special effects creatures that spend time and energy like this, especially the huge amount of money. Li Zhifan admires the original director Cameron very much.
In another world, "Avatar" brings far more than just the titles of "highest box office movies" and "epic blockbusters with excitement effects". It prompted global theaters to upgrade their equipment on a large scale in that era. This was a benign exhibition, and it also led to the subsequent large-scale production of imax-3d movies, and even formed a routine.
In this world, in the current era, cinema projection equipment has far surpassed the imax-3d standard, and has released the 32k giant screen, the highest-level movie system.
However, imax-3d is still a standard commonly used in cinemas, and many cinemas also generally use 8k giant screens.
After "Avatar" is released, it is expected that the four standards of 3d, imax-3d, 8k giant screen and giant screen will be adopted simultaneously around the world, giving viewers more choices. In some theaters in North America that have 32k giant screens installed, William Entertainment can also provide them with exclusive film sources.
The advantage of this multi-standard release is that audiences can enter the theater many times to watch different standards, and at the same time, they also achieve the goal of box office growth.
Other directors are making movies, for fear that their movies will not be watched by the audience, for fear that everyone will complain if they don’t see them seriously.
But Li Zhifan did the opposite. He uploaded his photos on Kuaibo and IRS regularly and at regular intervals every day. Sometimes he posed with the actresses on the set, sometimes he drank coffee in a coffee shop on the corner, sometimes he read books and poses in front of the hotel balcony, and even took photos with the male actors filming together in the men's bathroom.
Anyway, it gives people a feeling of being unemployed. During the two-month filming period, Li Zhifan returned to China and held two concerts.
Li Zhifan's global tour has not yet ended, but there are only a few final events left, and they will all end within this year. However, I don't know that it will be the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month until the next tour starts.
In short, the feeling that Li Zhifan currently gives people is no longer like he was very busy when filming the "Infernal Affairs" series and "Wolf Warrior" before. No matter how he looks at it, he looks like a very idle person.
In fact, it is not easy to create such a leisurely look, especially when you are very busy, it is not easy to pretend to be relaxed.
With his successful creation and the fuel of online self-media, the expectations of "Avatar" are really declining.
"Li Zhifan is making a feature film this time!"
"It is said that all the content of "Avatar" was filmed in the studio and there was no outdoor scene."
"Avatar is a story about a human falling in love with a mutated leopard girl in the forest, and the male and female protagonists don't have to go to the forest to shoot. After filming in front of the green screen, you will be done as soon as you do the special effects in the later stage."
"I heard that "Avatar" is a science fiction film between humans and aliens. The heroine is an alien human landing on Earth. The two of them finished all the content at the male protagonist's house. Finally, the heroine took the spaceship to pick her up and left the earth."
“…”
The rumors became more and more true. Although they were different and they didn't even understand the specific content of "Avatar", each of the self-media said it was full of noses and eyes, as if they had really interviewed Li Zhifan.
In this case, the heartache of netizens and movie fans is foreseeable.
However, as movie fans gave the excuse of "Challenging Hollywood live-action movies and trying out the waters", the public gradually accepted the setting and tone of "Avatar will not be a great movie", and their popularity has also dropped day by day, gradually being replaced by other new things.
Chapter completed!
