c883 Secret key to postponement
“You have to be more forceful when pushing the door. Just imagine that this is a huge stone door. You need to use all your strength to push it open. Let’s say one, two and three together. Wow, it’s hard to push it open. You want this feeling ”
On set.
Luo Xun commanded.
It is already a week after “The Secret of the Dragon” was launched. The official filming has begun, and the crew is very busy.
“This way.”
After Luo Xun spoke to the extras, he waved to the props teacher: “The iron block of the Flower of the Other Side is still a bit new. Roll it twice on the muddy ground to cover it with more dust.”
“OK.”
The props teacher nodded.
Then Luo Xun walked up to a camera, took a closer look, moved the camera position slightly, and said to the camera: “When you turn around and take a close-up of me, remember to give a deeper virtual focus in front to highlight my reaction. In addition, the color It’s still a little brighter, can it be darker?”
“It’s more difficult.”
The photographer frowned and said: “But it can achieve the effect you want. I’ll adjust it. If it’s too dark, it’s easy to see clearly…”
“Take your time.”
Luo Xun said with a smile: “After all, our effect is deep underground. It doesn’t matter if it is darker. Of course, the premise is not to blur the characters.”
“clear.”
After wandering around like this, Luo Xun began to discuss with the assistant director how to shoot his next scene: “I will act as an 18-year-old first. Our entire scene should be 18-year-old. When I saw Ding Sitian walking away, I I couldn’t get through it. I was in a dream, and there seemed to be a glass in front of me. I was so anxious that I bumped into the glass. At this time, I was going to look like my 40-year-old self.
“Then we score two shots.”
The assistant director said: “First shoot the real scene here, put the glass in front of you, turn on the lights, act until it hits, go back to the studio, change the background behind the studio, and act exactly the same.”
Luo Xun nodded.
Another creator said: “Actually, the only thing that needs to be paid attention to in this scene is the consistency of the two shots. In the movie’s timeline, it is already more than a month later. Director Luo bumps into him, but he also doesn’t move. Immediately change the makeup from the 18-year-old to the 40-year-old. After that, we cut the glass from the middle, and Director Luo starts the performance from this side, and the position and rhythm must be exactly the same.”
Luo Xun nodded.
If the movement is slow, it will be inconsistent, if it is fast, it will be out of focus, but if the details are well controlled, it will not be a big problem.
“Are you guys okay?”
When the conversation was almost over, Huang Bo stuck his head into the tent: “Are we ready to start?”
“Almost.”
Luo Xun stood up and said with a smile, “How are you feeling?”
Huang Bo waved his hands and looked indifferent, but Luo Xun knew that Huang Bo was injured during the filming last night, but since the other party acted like he was fine, he stopped being pretentious——
Filming.
Injuries are common for those who do a little bit of action, as long as there are no root causes of disease. Anyway, Luo Xun has been filming for so many years. Although there is no root cause of the disease, Luo Xun still has large and small scars on his body.
It’s all inevitable.
Huang Bo was injured in yesterday’s scene because he had to hang in the air for a long time. In order to let the camera follow him, he hung there like a toad. As a result, he twisted when he landed on the ground and had several red streaks on his body due to the pressure. print.
“but……”
Luo Xun smiled and reminded: “You will have a scene later on where you are running on a suspension bridge with a big gold tooth on your back. If that doesn’t work, let’s use a substitute. Anyway, the impact of this scene won’t be that big.”
“Not really.”
Huang Bo said indifferently.
Seeing that Huang Bo was still insisting, Luo Xun said no more. At this time, Xia Yu also put on makeup and waved from a distance: “Get ready to start shooting.”
…
The filming of the movie is long, but the release of the movie is short-lived. When Luo Xun was filming “The Secret of the Dragon”, his other movie was already in the second half of its release——
Yes.
The third week of the movie “Scorching Sun” has passed, and within three weeks, the box office of “Scorching Sun” has officially reached 900 million, just a stone’s throw away from the billion mark!
This box office…
Amazing so many people!
However, Luo Xun himself has some regrets. It seems that “Scorching Sun” will eventually have a box office of over 1 billion, but there is no hope that the total box office will surpass “Wolf Warrior”.
From the bottom of my heart.
Luo Xun still hopes that the box office of “Scorching Sun” can be higher, although the box office of this movie has far exceeded that of its previous life.
Having said that.
As his first directorial work, “Wolf Warrior” ended up with a box office of more than 1.3 billion. No matter for whatever reason, this starting point is already very high. The second film cannot surpass it, and it is also very high. Normal things——
Luo Xunru thought.
What Luo Xun didn’t expect was that several other investors were not willing to see “Scorching Sun” go down like this. Especially when there was no competition from popular movies during the same period, they were even more cautious –
They want to apply for an extension key.
Not to mention, “Scorched Heart”, which has no competition during the same period and is still not too bad at the single-day box office, is indeed eligible for a secret key extension, but it is unclear how much box office it will get after the extension.
What is an extension key?
To understand this, you must first know that movie copies are the “content of the movie”. What theaters get are encrypted digital backs. If you want to show the movie, you need a password.
This password is called the “key”.
The key contains the schedule information, which can control the release and withdrawal time. Generally, the validity period of this key is one month. If the movie needs to extend the screening time, the key must be re-made, which is the key extension.
In China.
The application procedure for key extension is not troublesome, especially for domestic films. The operation is actually relatively simple and does not require payment. Usually, the decision on whether to extend the extension will be made after discussing with the film company 5 working days in advance. After the decision is made, the new key will be uploaded to the Internet and notified to each theater. The theater can download it by itself to extend the offline time.
The real trouble is imported films.
The key extension of these imported films is often not so smooth. It is necessary to submit an application to **** and pay a certain service fee. The fee depends on the film, and there is a possibility of rejection after the application is submitted.
Of course.
Not all movies can be extended. Generally speaking, they must be blockbusters to be extended; secondly, they must have market appeal. For movies with obvious box office performance, who will extend your extension?
Finally.
Luo Xun’s “Burning Sun” has obtained the qualification for postponement. Although it may be a stretch to meet the criteria for postponement, it is still a good thing to have more box office revenue. This has made Luo Xun feel better about filming the new drama.
