"the get down" is a show you can't miss.
As the chief director and executive producer of this play, Baz Luman, like his previous works, has a very obvious mark of him-
luxury/crazy/romantic/desolate
, and in terms of music selection and camera design, there are very clear lines. The embodiment of the director's style. It's a musical TV series that seems to blow your entire pores and keep climaxing.
And the interesting thing about this show is that he made the restless NY of the 70s retro to the extreme.
The drawing of the CG background, the combination of historical video materials and actual shooting materials, and the performance of the development history of hip hop are all perfectly presented through the system of youth films (in other words, the recent Netflix dramas are all teenage protagonists).
In addition, the director strictly follows the style of musicals and designed the opening music storyteller to connect the series, and the end of each episode is almost a long-term presentation of Manhattan and kisses (roofs, fire stairs, etc.), which will remind you of " The attic of the Moulin Rouge, the black trumpet-playing staircase in Gatsby. The aesthetics of the chief director has been thoroughly implemented.
At the same time, the show also has dazzling editing. For example, in the small bar, Ma Lian sang the triple time and space editing after set me free for the first time, which not only disrupted the time and space, but also disrupted the songs, and directly brought up a remix version. , and this section begins with a soul song piano accompaniment. (Probably the first time someone who likes Jay Chou listens to "Turkish Ice Cream")
This clip of jumping in time and space is also jumping in time and space in the heart, such as the kiss between Rumi and Thor.
In addition, the character creation is also out of tradition. Each main character has three to four facades (E, Shaolin, Ma Lian, Uncle Cisco, Annie, etc.), both integrity and selfishness and pride, in a bunch of flat supporting characters It is easier to see struggle and hesitation. The performances of many young actors are even more surprising.
The first episode was filmed by baz himself. It took 90 minutes to complete, and if it lasted for 30 minutes, it was considered a pit. Congratulations.
