Not to mention the ups and downs on the Internet, after intense filming, "The Dark Knight" was finally announced in Chicago, but such an early completion also gave Li He some ideas.Post-production is undoubtedly the most time-consuming and tedious part of the film."
The Dark Knight" is proud of Li He's familiarity with the original plot and knows what kind of effect he wants, so the progress is quite fast.In addition to retaining the theme core of the film, Li He has made a lot of localized adaptations of the film, the most important of which is the action scene.I have to say that Nolan is not good at filming action scenes, what he is good at is using exciting film plots to bring the audience a sense of tension, such as the chase scene in Mombasa in "Inception", which is tense to watch, but the action scenes are really a mess.And Li He's improved action scenes are not as bells and whistles as kung fu movies, nor are they like street fights like Nolan's films.You must know that Wayne learned martial arts in the Warriors League, and every move and style is a practical fighting skill.Li He asked Lin Feng, the action director, to design a set of movements, which combined Xingyi boxing, sanda, taekwondo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, etc., a set of movements is simple and direct, fast and sharp, and the fight is both ornamental and does not feel bells and whistles.Chen Kun has been working hard to learn, but the intense action scenes are all completed by two stuntmen who are about the same size as Chen Kun, and no one can see them with masks anyway.After the film was completed, Li He devoted himself to post-production, but the problem was that he asked Hans Zimmer to make the soundtrack, and he sent two versions of the soundtrack to Li He's dissatisfaction.happened to be in Chicago, Li He asked the crew to return to China first, and he and Tang Qianqian went to visit Hans Zimmer under the leadership of Jaanna Cruz.But before that, Li He first went to the headquarters of Warner Pictures and met with Warner executives."
Introducing, this is Bryant Lee, our valued partner, and his lover, Katherine Don.Bryant, Catherine, this is Warner Pictures President: Doug Walter. ”Hank Herman introduces the first few people to each other."
Hello, Mr.
Li......
Ms.
Tang.""
Hello, Mr.
Walter, I prefer to be called Director Li.""
Hahaha, hello, Director Li, come and sit ...... us" Several people sat down one after another, and the charming female secretary withdrew from the office after having coffee."
Did the shoot in Chicago go well?"
Doug Walter asked.Li He nodded and said: "It's going well, thanks to the assistance of Warner Pictures, the Chicago City Government gave the crew the green light, and the film was successfully completed the day before yesterday." ”"That's good, Hank and I are both huge fans of Batman and can't wait to watch it in the cinema."
Doug Walter said he's looking forward to it."
Hahahaha...... you're so polite, Batman is one of the highlights of next year, and we'll definitely give it our all."
Li He said with a smile."
Speaking of which, Bryant, are you interested in being the director of Justice League?"
Doug Walter asked.Li He was stunned, he didn't expect Doug Walter to mention such a thing, so he shook his head decisively and refused: "No, Mr.
Walter, my plans are already full, I'm afraid there is no schedule." ”Doug Walter also said casually, and when he saw Li He's refusal, he didn't insist, and instead asked about the filming of "The Dark Knight", in fact, most of the situation Jaanna Cruze had already told Doug Walter, but from the creator's point of view, it can help Warner Pictures know the specific situation of the project."
The whole film was shot with an IMAX camera developed by a company in Huaxia, although it is slightly different from the IMAX camera in North America, but it is already the most cost-effective camera we can use."
Li He briefed the two executives on the situation: "The film will be released in 2D format, and it will be better viewed in giant screen theaters and IMAX theaters. ”Tang Qianqian also said."
Don't have a 3D format?"
Doug Walter frowned.Nowadays, any movie that does not have a 3D name is embarrassed to be released in theaters, and even bad movie companies like Netflix are all in 3D, because 3D ticket prices are higher."
There is no need, the film is mainly shot in real life, unlike "The Avengers", which requires a lot of special effects production support, the 3D effect is very good, and the production of "The Dark Knight" into 3D has little to do with the viewing effect of the film in addition to raising the ticket price."
Li He said.Doug Walter and Hank Herman looked at each other and said, "What you said is also very reasonable, so be it!"
”"What are your plans for your next film after this project is over?"
Hank Herman asked.Li He thought for a while and replied: "I will probably rest for a while, and then go back to preparing for a space science fiction film......
Doug Walter's expression moved: "Are you interested in handing it over to Warner Pictures to produce and distribute?"
”Li He had a question mark on his face: "Haven't you been involved all the time?"
”"I mean everything, come to Hollywood to develop, leave it all to us, you just shoot the film, and we will take care of the rest for you."
Doug Walter's tone was seductive, as if Warner Pictures was the charity film company that helped Lee He.But don't say whether Warner Pictures will support Li He, even if it supports Li He, switching to Warner Pictures will not have any good results.is as strong as Spielberg and James Cameron, and he has to bow his head in front of these film company giants, how much voice can he have as a director from China?
So Li He decisively refused: "I'm sorry, Mr.
Walter, after all, I am a shareholder of Penguin Pictures and Light Pictures, it is impossible to get rid of them and work with Warner, and my basic cards are in Huaxia, and it is impossible to come to Hollywood to develop like director Ang Lee." ”"That's a shame......
Doug Walter regretted, "Either way, we respect your choice." ”After chatting for a while, they declined Doug Walter's invitation to lunch, and Li He and Tang Qianqian went to Hans Zimmer's residence.After Li He and the two took their leave, Hank Herman asked G.
Walter, "How is it?"
Feels good, right?
”Doug Walter nodded: "He is a person who acts in line with his goals, he is never disturbed by extras, I invited him to come to Hollywood, this opportunity is pie-in-the-sky for the entertainment industry of that country on the other side of the Pacific, but he is very calm and doesn't care." ”"He also understands his position and will not be affected by long-term interests, after all, Hollywood is the Hollywood of Jews, and it is too difficult for Orientals to integrate here."
Hank Herman said."
Don't talk about that, Hank, how long have you been a VP?"
Doug Walter asked.Hank Herman thought for a moment and said, "It's been almost six or seven years!"
”"Then congratulations, you're about to be promoted to president of Warner Pictures."
Doug Walter smiled......
