I remember someone asked Wang Jing again: "Is film your hobby!" Wang Jing answered directly: "No, film is my industry." In contemporary society, the artistic and industrial attributes of film are indispensable . I don't use the word commercial attribute here, I hope to use the broader concept of industry to cover the commercial attribute of film.
Since it is an industry, it will involve the entire production process, from the planning of a film, pre-production, on-site shooting, to post-production and marketing throughout the entire process. The formation of a mature film industry chain is often inseparable from the industrialization or routineization of a production process. Although I have not systematically studied Wang Jing's films, his works are sometimes rough, but his films are always produced in strict accordance with the industrialized production mode.
The following takes "Eternal Dragon Slayer: The Demon Sect Leader" as an example to briefly talk about the industrial attributes reflected in this film.
The so-called industrialization is mass production according to certain standards. Wang Jing's camera movement is very similar to Hollywood's star-led studio production model. It is the front and back shots that focus on medium and close-up shots, attracting the audience's attention with the face of a star, amusing the audience with playful lines, and basically abandoning the more abundant mise-en-scene in the meaning field. And when dealing with fights, the tricky shots and weird movements create a freshness on the camera.
In terms of music processing, some senior music masters in Hong Kong films are often responsible for making up for the lack of narrative and emotional tension. The soundtrack of this film is Gu Jiahui.
In terms of aesthetic taste, Wang Jing is completely close to the audience and goes to the world. Even Zhang Wuji is an ambitious and foul-mouthed man. Subversion of the righteous martial arts and sympathy for the rebels.
The plot handling is unbelievable, and it is simply the simplest hero growth model: learn peerless martial arts through the guidance of experts, and get cheats by chance.
In the processing of kung fu, the visualization is already obvious, especially the performance of Xuanming Divine Palm.
