that it's time for Hollywood to speak out for those trees, and the film conveys this message vigorously. ——The dubbing lineup of the film
"USA Today"
is outstanding, and the 3D visual effects are also very exciting. The film is truly entertaining while conveying the message of environmental protection.
——
Although the movie "USA Today" downplays some of the darker elements in the original work, it still successfully conveys the theme through catchy songs, interesting characters and bright pictures. ——The behind-the-scenes production of
"USA Today" is adapted from the famous children's literature "The Story of Old Reis" is adapted from the famous children's literature writer, [Dr. Seuss]'s original work of the same name, which has been adapted into TV specials, audiobooks and musicals . It was the first time this classic book was published in 1971. When it comes to adapting this masterpiece, the film's producer [Christopher Mairedandre] said frankly that it was extremely difficult. Because although the team of "Despicable Me" is escorted by the team, this 45-page children's book carries many topics about environmental protection, conscience, morality, atonement, love, and ideals. It is difficult to turn it into a movie. The degree can be imagined.
Christopher Mairedandre said: "The challenges of shooting "Despicable Me" and this movie are not the same. Shooting "The Story of Old Reis" is technically no problem and difficult. This is how to adapt and restore the story of Dr. Seuss. Although this story is relaxed and lively, it has a very serious theme from the core. Therefore, when telling this story, you can’t be hippy and smiley, nor can you Casually, because such an attitude is not suitable for this theme. Of course, I don’t want to take this film too seriously, but I will add a lot of comedy elements, exaggerations, etc., but this is not A comedy. In Dr. Seuss’s novels, he has mixed all kinds of imaginative elements-such as artificial nature, various allegories and surprising stories, etc. How to organically integrate these into the film In the movie, it has become a difficult problem. Moreover, the most important thing is to show rich emotions in the movie and create two opposing roles of good and evil. If you want to directly compile the original work of Seuss into a movie, then 20 minutes, the story Let’s just talk about it, so we can only expand this story from another angle. We wrote a lot of plots after the end of the novel and used it to enrich the content of the movie.”
Compared with the original, the movie has been adapted in several places. , Changing the structure of the story, adding or rewriting the characters, talking about the reasons for such rewriting, Christopher Mairedandre said: "In order to facilitate our storytelling and make the film more reasonable, we made some changes to the characters. . These changes will not damage the theme and tone of the original novel, but are only set for the convenience of our filming. It should be said that Dr. Seuss’s novel is a product of pure imagination. We also used a lot in the movie I use pen and ink to realize these images in my mind, and hope that our work can be recognized by everyone."
The behind-the-scenes team of "Despicable Me"
The film’s behind-the-scenes team is extremely powerful, coming from the original team of the highly acclaimed animation "Despicable Me". Similar to all kinds of peculiar animation works, this animation also has all kinds of whimsical elements. Film director Chris Leonard said: "Although the theme of this movie is a bit heavier, we did not make it into a heavy movie. The film will also have bright colors, heartwarming plots and cuteness. During the filming process, we had a long discussion, the purpose is to shoot this story with a fresh look. In the process of screenwriting, we added a lot of love and adventure elements to the story These contents are the most enjoyable and exciting in the
movie .” For cartoons, finding a suitable dubbing team can get twice the result with half the effort. Remember the grunt in "Despicable Me" with a weird accent? This is the magic of its voice Steve Carell. In this movie, the voice actors hired by the producers are a collection of big names, not only [Zac Efron], [Taylor Swift] and other new-generation stars, as well as [Ed. Helms] are rookies in comedy, and there are also veteran comedians like [Danny DeVito]. Speaking of the cast of voice actors, Christopher Mairedandre said: “It’s great, each of them’s voices are in line with my expectations of the characters, and their performance gives the characters a sense of vitality and realism. Especially Ted, voiced by Zac Efron, and Old Reis, voiced by Danny DeVito. The voices of these two actors perfectly fit the character and psychology of the characters. This is no exaggeration. dubbing work is impressive, but also very pleasantly surprised. "
