Whenever we ** TV series, we are always amazed by the costumes of the characters in the play, their clothes are exquisite, which makes people want to wear them in person, especially the Hanfu in those costume dramas is beautiful.
Netizens have said that the actor must feel very hot in such thick clothes, especially since some scenes are filmed in the summer, won't the actor be affected by heat stroke?
Sometimes we find that the camera doesn't always show a panorama, sometimes only close-ups of the upper body. This makes many netizens curious about the situation of the lower body?Why not use a full-body shot?
Only those in the know will know why the lower half of the body was not photographed.
This is because it is really impossible to shoot, and if it is filmed, it will be very embarrassing, and it can also make some actors lose face. In order to avoid controversy, the director could only choose to shoot the upper body.
One of the reasons many directors choose not to shoot full-body shots is that the season is not suitable.
Some scripts have scenes set in the summer, but the actual shooting takes place in the winter, so it's easy to reveal if you shoot a full-body shot.
For example, in the following **, the audience may only see a young and beautiful young lady who is full of energy.
A row of ladies wears short sleeves, which indicates that the plot takes place in the summer, but in fact the shooting took place in the cold winter. In order to cope with the cold, they were wrapped in thick cotton jackets on the lower half of their bodies.
If the whole body is filmed in the camera, then the padded jacket will also be exposed, which will destroy the coherence of the plot.
If the actress is only wearing a summer dress and does not wear a padded jacket on the lower half of her body, she may fall ill from the cold, causing the performance to be delayed or even unable to proceed.
This will not only harm her health, but also affect the progress of the crew, after all, time is money for the crew.
Many non-seasonal plays are not easy to film, especially in the summer, when playing the role of winter.
Some actors were required to wear heavy clothing and capes, and the weather at that time could be in the thirties and could cause heat stroke.
The director came up with a clever idea at this time: they only shot the upper body of the actors, because the costumes were usually one-piece, and the heat could be dissipated by lifting the skirt.
Beauty scheming was once all the rage in China, and the show was filmed in the summer, but many scenes were dressed in winter clothes.
Because the Hanfu itself is layered and very hot to wear, in order to avoid the actor's heat stroke and slow down the filming progress, they simply lifted a part of the skirt directly to ventilate the heat.
The most laughable thing is the following still, in the TV series, the two are talking seriously, but in the stills, they are both holding their skirts, which looks very funny.
The actors had to work hard after receiving their salaries, even dealing with out-of-season shoots. "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is almost always filmed in winter, but some scenes in the play depict summer.
In order to avoid revealing the stuffing in the play, the actor usually takes a block of ice before opening his mouth to cool the heat in his mouth, so as not to exhale the heat when speaking the lines, thus exposing the flaws of the season.
Of all the TV series, one of the most hilarious scenes is the horse ride. Many actors don't know how to ride horses, however, the roles they play require riding scenes. What should I do?The answer can only be a fake show.
There are many ways to disguise it, such as passing off a person as a horse and riding on the head of a staff member pretending to be galloping on the grassland, so the director can only shoot the upper body, and if the lower body is shown, the audience will see no longer a horse, but a person.
Some actors use fake horse props, on which they sit to imitate the movements of horseback riding, and pull horse props through a chute to make it look like they are running forward.
Some crews even lack props, and the actors can only rely on their own imagination. There was once a group of ** circulating on the Internet, showing that when Hu Yitian was filming, the scene required horseback riding, but there was no real horse.
He and the others behind him pretended to be a horse and swung together to follow the rhythm.
Many netizens were shocked by the wide spread of this ** on the Internet, and expressed that it was difficult to suppress laughter.
Some people questioned why the crew was so poor, and they were reluctant to make even a prop, which made them feel that the crew was insincere. In fact, many of the horseback rides seen online are fake.
Some scenes are distinctly stiff and unnatural, making it easy to see at a glance that they are fake;Other images may make you unaware of the flaws for a while, but you always feel that something is wrong.
For this kind of fake horseback riding scene, most of the audience is rejected. Only some fans will keep praising their idol in the comment section, saying that he is very handsome on horseback.
One of the reasons why the director of the equestrian show only shoots the upper body of the actors is that the crew has limited funds, and the other reason is that some stars don't know how to ride horses at all, and even if they know that the most similar scene of the character requires horseback riding, they are not willing to learn to Xi, but want to complete the shooting in a simple way.
However, it's not like there's no real horseback riding show in the entertainment industry.
For example, in a scene in the TV series "The Condor Heroes", the famous fairy sister Liu Yifei needs to ride a horse, and her upper body and riding movements are very standard, showing a heroic posture, so that the audience can deeply feel her chivalrous spirit.
Wu Lei became popular on the Internet last year because of a horseback riding scene, and the shooting at that time was panoramic, and the audience could clearly see that he was riding a real horse and wearing simple clothes, but he still revealed the brave temperament of his youth.
* When it comes to TV dramas, we often envy the actors of Xianxia or martial arts dramas because they are able to fly. However, we ordinary people know that humans can't fly.
So, what makes us feel like these actors are really flying?The answer lies in the clever use of green screens and props.
This is also one of the reasons why the director only shoots the upper body, such as this picture.
In the TV series "Three Lives and Three Worlds", Bai Fengjiu is in a flying state when he escapes from the enemy, but the actual shooting is to create this flying atmosphere by relying on props and using a platform that can be moved.
In the setting of martial arts plots, some people have deep internal strength and can blow away the surrounding leaves with one palm, and the shooting of this kind of scene is not suitable for the use of panoramas, because the scattering of leaves requires the assistance of the staff.
The staff wore blue costumes and held large hair dryers, creating a heroic atmosphere for the leaves to make it easier to pick them off later. The purpose of this is to create a better effect for the actors.
Many TV dramas will use green screen technology to present some scenes that are difficult to appear in real life, especially in Xianxia dramas, green screen is the most widely used.
Therefore, the scenes such as Tiangong that we saw in the ** TV series are not real, but are presented through the synthesis of the green curtain in the middle of the scene.
Do you remember the crying scene when Yang Zi became popular on the Internet before?
In a TV series, she may appear in various scenes, but in reality she is just standing in front of a green screen while filming, pretending to have various different scenes.
At present, many TV dramas are idol dramas, and in order to create a sweet atmosphere between the male and female protagonists, some romantic scenes will be deliberately designed, among which the princess hug is a crucial action.
A successful princess hug can quickly highlight the emotional drama between the main actors and create a romantic atmosphere like a pink bubble.
Not all actors can interpret the scene of the princess hugging, some male actors often post fitness photos on Weibo, but in real life it is difficult to pick up an actress who weighs less than 100 pounds.
What if you can't move the actress?One solution is to use props.
In the play, you may see the male protagonist walking sweetly forward with the female protagonist in his arms, but the reality may be that two staff members are holding the female protagonist while the male protagonist is just making a holding motion.
Directors don't dare to shoot panoramic shots lightly these days, because if there is a flaw, the audience will immediately notice it.
Some people think that such a princess hug looks very fake, but the actual situation cannot be ignored, and some male actors are too fake. However, there are also some successful cases of princess hugging.
In the process of filming a drama, Bai Jingting directly picked up Zheng Hehuizi, the scene was a panoramic view, full of a sense of fate, so many viewers were fascinated by it and became fans of the two CPs.
This scene is very atmospheric and impressive.
Sometimes the reason why directors choose to shoot only the upper body of the actor is not because they don't want to shoot the whole body, but because of the constraints of realistic conditions.
Many actors now rely only on props to complete their performances, and they don't pay attention to improving their acting skills.
Since they have chosen to become actors, they must treat it as a profession, after all, any job requires hard work.
