"Where is Fanny?"

"After I sent her home, she became sensible. Knowing that I had work, she asked me to take her home first and treat her to a big dinner later in the evening."

"Good girl."

"Yeah, by the way, what do you think of this?"

Lu Ze and Lu Ze walked behind, chatting quietly. It could be seen that Mickey was relieved by his daughter's understanding and support. He smiled and got closer to Lu Ze, pretending to be cautious, and then

He took out a brooch from his arms. It looked like it should be gold. There was only a small gem inlaid in it. The shape was simple and unique, and it was very suitable for a little girl to wear.

"Yes, you should have bought one for your daughter a long time ago. It is more reliable than boxing gloves. When a girl grows up, clothing is always more important than toys."

"Learned, learned."

It was difficult for him to get approval from Lu Ze in terms of fashion. This time he received Lu Ze's praise, which made Mickey even more confident. He put his big hand on Lu Ze's shoulder and patted it a few times to show his relief. His steps were swaying, and he probably left

You can fly to the sky if you step on your right foot, or if you step on your right foot and your left foot.

The theater on the third floor is a bit small, with only twelve seats, and no 3D equipment has been installed. As a movie company, it is really a bit pricey. However, Mickey and Lu Ze have no intention of continuing to upgrade. After all, only Lu Ze usually finds some old people here.

Watching movies passed the time, and few others, including Mickey, came to watch.

Because the equipment is still mainstream equipment in the past few years, all operations are still relatively cumbersome. If you want to study a movie or pull out the film to learn, it is more appropriate to play it second by second on the computer. In the theater, it will drag on.

The slow pace makes it difficult to watch the movie patiently.

But even though it is a bit cumbersome, time has added a lot of added value to it. Starting from the earliest hand-cranked video recorders, each updated iteration of the equipment has been displayed in the display cabinet, occupying about half of the space on the third floor.

, the remaining space is occupied by tens of thousands of film reels, which can be used and watched, reflecting the development process of world film art.

Most of the collections here are worth a scrap if they go into the hands of ordinary people, but for filmmakers, they are treasures that can bring tears to their eyes. Even the amateur director Griezmann can't help but admire them.

I closed my eyes and stood in front of the wall, staring at the somewhat broken masterpiece, the first edition printed poster of Chaplin's "City Lights".

He was in a trance and couldn't control his right hand. He slowly raised it and placed it gently on the walnut wooden photo frame, carefully stroking the tree lines that washed down like a waterfall.

Times will subtly change people's position and mentality. As a filmmaker, in fact, the movies shot today use shooting techniques that were born a long time ago. It is difficult to make any innovations. As for special effects such as 3D, they are visual effects.

, rather than a new way of using lenses.

Forty, fifty years ago, or even nearly a hundred years ago, the filmmakers at that time were innovators, creating creators who could expand space and time. However, the current filmmakers are stepping on the footsteps of their predecessors. Every step is

We are walking on the path trodden by our predecessors, and the filmmakers at this time are all successors.

Most of them are carrying and learning. After time passes, they can't help but miss it, and miss the shock and wonder when they first saw a new shooting technique.

"My grandfather used to be a film courier in a movie theater. He once had such a poster, and he once said that he would keep it as a family heirloom. But since his death, I have searched several times and can't find it."

Lu Ze and others did not answer the question and stood quietly behind him, waiting for him to recall his youth. Because of this, his sadness did not last long, and he was taken by Kesha to the equipment hall to put his works.

Lu Ze and Mickey were the first to sit down. There was not much communication between them. They were sitting in the emperor's seat and playing with their mobile phones. After a few minutes, the screen was turned on and all the surrounding lights were extinguished. The two people who came back from the backstage sat on the floor.

With Ze and Mickey.

There was no investor, so naturally there was no title. The scene went directly to the main film, but Lu Ze's first sense was not very good. After only three seconds, he frowned.

The picture was too shaken. It swayed east and west twice, making people dizzy. Although Lu Ze knew that this was a movie with a cost of only 10,000 pounds, and a handheld camera was used throughout the whole process, PTZ is commonly used.

Today, even if you record a short video, it will not shake like this.

This was not a distaste for the movie, but simply a discomfort with the picture. Out of respect, Lu Ze didn't say anything. He just looked at Mickey and Kesha beside him, both of whom also frowned.

As the male and female protagonists began to communicate, the story line began to unfold. At the same time, it also proved that this was a pseudo-recording film. It is understandable that this kind of film uses irregular camera shake, because you have to take into account the era in which the script is set, and the pictures.

The old Nikon camera that flashes by in the camera can basically determine its age in the eyes of knowledgeable people.

Between 2005 and 2010.

Then came the scene where the male protagonist showed his face and placed the camera. The male protagonist was played by Griezmann who came to the house with the film.

"This is my girlfriend."

Griezmann, who was sitting next to Mickey, explained softly that it was a low-budget movie after all, and it was common for all the actors to be cast by relatives and friends in order to save costs.

"Your girlfriend is very beautiful."

"Thanks."

After Mickey and Griezmann had a simple communication, everyone's attention returned to the movie itself. Although the picture looked a bit rough due to the limitations of its own equipment, the editing technique was excellent, without any sloppiness, and the plot moved forward smoothly.

Expand.

This is a very slow-burning movie. From the first night when only the keys fell on the ground, the horror atmosphere has just begun to emerge, and it still needs a lot of horror elements to set it off.

In this way, it is inevitable to have a character to take on the task of seeking death. This is the limitation of horror movies. Other styles of movies generally use events to lead characters to develop plots, but this type of supernatural movies

People are needed to trigger events to occur. This is also why most horror movies are the same. From the perspective of viewers with rich movie viewing experience, they can clearly deduce the story to be told below.

Therefore, supernatural movies always give the audience a sense of déjà vu as if the protagonist is mentally abnormal. If he were a normal person, he would have been able to run as far as he wanted if he knew there were dirty things around him. Who would dare to admit death and come forward?

Getting close?

But there is no way, no one is seeking death, and this story cannot unfold. Unless we break out of this thinking circle, design an unsolvable horror mode, or make a fuss about the lens language and the design of scary scenes, otherwise it will be very difficult to

It’s hard to escape the label of being cliche.

At present, it seems that "Ghost Chronicles" is still considered to be in the category of old-fashioned. Only the pseudo-real record is interesting. If it cannot do this, it will be difficult for Mickey and Lu Ze to be interested in watching it.

.

However, as the plot unfolded, the psychic arrived, the male protagonist committed suicide and bought the tools of the Immortal to prepare for summoning spirits, etc., Lu Ze and the two saw some clues.

The control of the rhythm is really good.

Every night that comes, this terrifying atmosphere will become more intense. This gradual and small step of promotion makes Mickey interested. This shooting method has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it can bring the audience into it, but the prerequisite

The story is inherently interesting, but if it is an uninteresting story, the audience will only feel that it is too long and boring, making people feel sleepy. But no matter what, being able to master this rhythm is enough to prove a director's skills.

This made Lu Ze wonder why Griezmann used this recording format to shoot this film.

Because the plot is slow-burning, he needs to find another point of interest for the audience as a motivation to attract the audience to continue watching. This point of interest is a bit difficult to talk about, but both men and women will be interested in it.

Peep, explore, desire.

We are peeking into the life of a young couple. Even if they don't do anything messy, it is enough to arouse curiosity. What about adding some supernatural events? For many people, it is not very exciting.

But he can also watch it with interest, which is the brilliance of Griezmann.

Of course, there are many people who don't have this interest and are not interested in other people's lives at all. For such people, this story will seem much boring, but it doesn't matter. After all, as long as a movie made with more than 10,000 yuan can attract people

Once a small number of people are interested in it, the movie will be able to recoup its costs or even make a profit.

The story is still going on. After the fifteenth night, the plot begins to get a little scary. The four people communicate less and less, and they are all focused on watching the movie. But Lu Ze knows in his heart that Mickey next to him probably wants to be told.

say.

Someone was scared, and that was the coward next to him.

Because of the different cultural differences between China and the West, the points that can trigger fear are also different. Even if this film is a bit rough for film practitioners, as long as it fits real life, it will always scare some people, even if you are a professional.

exception.

Mickey unconsciously stretched out his hands and rubbed them on his trouser legs, probably to wipe away the sweat that was pouring out. His eyes were a little dodged, but he would bravely look directly at the video the next second after dodging. It didn't matter how obsessed he was.

, there is no way.

Who made him want to buy this movie?

On the contrary, Lu Ze and Kesha were a little uninterested. It was indeed because this thing could not scare the Chinese people. It would probably work if they had a fair face, a money-eyed mouth, and some blush on their face.

On the twenty-first night of the movie, when the heroine was pulled directly from the bed by something invisible, Lu Ze clearly felt Mickey trembling next to him, but before he could laugh, the phone in his trouser pocket suddenly vibrated.

.

"Call me back when you have time."

The text message said this. The sender was his second brother. Lu Ze was confused for a moment, and he was afraid of being delayed by something urgent. He gently poked Kesha, who was about to fall asleep, with his elbow, and squeezed out a little space to pass.

He quietly left the broadcast room and quickly walked to the conference room before dialing the number of his second senior brother.

"What's wrong, second brother?"

"Daze, I have something to ask for your opinion on behalf of the master. The master is in a meeting right now, so he asked me to call you. It's like this. The leader of your group is about to retire due to illness."
