Akihabara Pioneer Road Chapter 244: 【Into Slap Island! ]
This is the first time the film festival committee has encountered such a situation!
Actually, all the pre-arranged movie viewing plans were disrupted and had to be readjusted!
The reason for the incident is a work of the "Animation Department" participating in this film festival.
Originally, the screening halls arranged by the film festival organizing committee for this work were all temporary viewing venues such as small theaters and bars, because after all, this is an animated short film of less than half an hour, and the production team has also started from Having never been on the stage of an international film festival, the audience of this work was taken for granted in a limited number of frames, and it did not have high expectations from the conference.
However, it is such a work that was originally expected to end the viewing activities in obscurity, but is only a fleeting work of "green leaf type" participating films that "focus on participation", but it is like a supernova with a big explosion, causing The great shock of this film festival!
First of all, since its premiere, all the screenings of "Voice of a Far Star" have been strongly sought after by movie fans, arousing unprecedented enthusiasm. The small theaters, small bars and small venues originally arranged by the organizing committee were full, far exceeding the actual number of moviegoers that could be accommodated.
Furthermore, in the distress report sent by the "victimized" theaters to the IFFAM Organizing Committee, without exception, it was mentioned that after each screening of "Voice of the Far Star", the audience strongly protested against the theater. Turn on the lighting while the credits are playing. And what's more, almost everyone is still sitting respectfully in their seats, listening to the ending song and watching the rolling subtitles with relish, which will last until the final film is put to the beginning.
Moreover, everyone will keep applauding in unison even after the movie is over, at least five minutes, and one long one even lasts for half an hour! This is not over yet, while applauding, the audience will shout in unison according to a certain rhythm, "Xinhai-cheng! Xinhai-cheng!" Let the staff feel strange and terrible, as if they are in some ancient mysterious tribe, performing some kind of crazy and terrifying cult ritual!
The gang asked the theater staff where they could sell derivative products related to this movie, such as posters, models, script novels, original art albums, soundtracks, cultural shirts, towel quilts, mugs, keys. Chains, as long as there are objects that can be related to the movie.
At first, the organizing committee also held the attitude of "Let the wind and waves make you, I will stand still" for this kind of report. Thinking that no matter how popular it is, it is just a competition entry for the "animation department" of a small audience. How much energy can you have? How much of a show can it be?
However, as more and more auditoriums made the report, the frequency of the report became more and more frequent, and the emotional color of the report became more and more tears. A rare "superior".
Obviously, the organizing committee underestimated the impact of this film on the world, and it was too slow to react to the development of the situation. When the organizing committee made up its mind to adjust the screening plan and time of the entire film festival, The complaint report sent to the conference secretariat is already half a foot high!
Who is this Xinhai City? !
Why is this "Voice of the Far Star" so magical? !
How did this studio named "AKBS Project" become the most eye-catching and high-profile studio in such a short period of time? !
Some good people even began to wonder if this studio is the "vest" or "small" studio of some major director, otherwise how could such an excellent blockbuster work suddenly become famous overnight?
Could it be the secret action of director Takeshi Nishino?
What they didn't know was that while "Voice of a Far Star" was in full swing, Nishino, the great director who "played out of common sense", was already carrying out another kind of accumulation with the film crew.
As soon as he finished his opening speech, he convened his most elite film crew, with the generous budget given by "Fujisan TV", assembled a group of supporting actors from the circle of old actors, and sat directly on the motor boat. Go to "Slap Island" below Tokyo Bay.
For nothing else, he was shooting for the next film directed and starred by Zongyi's majestic and enlightened Zongyi at the opening ceremony of the film industry - "Tokyo Girls Holy War"!
Maybe someone asked, why did he find so many old actors just to be supporting roles in the play?
Because, as the name suggests, the protagonists of this new film are those innocent girls who are in the rainy season. And the starring role of the movie is the idol girl group "AKBS48" selected by Nishino forcefully against all opinions and insisting on his own opinion!
Never made a movie?
No acting experience?
Don't have a wealth of life experience?
Haven't even been far away from your parents, teachers and warm home?
These are not problems in the eyes of the big director!
On the contrary, in a way, this is exactly the quality Nishino was looking for when he chose to make this film.
He is quietly preparing a laboratory in his mind, preparing to do a "demon experiment" of human nature and nature, sociality and naturalness, emotion and rules, beauty and ugliness!
And the data recording the experiment itself is the source of the editing of this movie!
I don't dare to say whether it is "unprecedented", but this is definitely a bold creation of "unprecedented"!
Of course, the other cast and crew did not have a complete concept of the big director's idea. While they boarded the island in batches, they were all reading the script provided by the crew at the last moment before filming.
To be precise, what they are reading at the moment is the "Script (Script)" that is in line with international film shooting, not the "Script ()" that is rich in island country characteristics.
Although the Japanese-English-English-Japanese double interpretation dictionary has different meanings for "script", "script" in "Script" and "script" in "", the meanings of the two English representatives are quite different in nature. The difference between cloud and mud.
"Script" is an outline text description of all traditional performance forms such as drama, stage play, drama, performance, etc. Usually, after having the "skeleton" of the story outline, the most basic "5W1H" is explained. That is, "when (WHEN)" "where (WHERE)" "who (WHO)" "how (HOW)" did a "what (WHAT)". At best, the content of the dialogue and the adjectives and adverbs that describe the expressions and actions of the characters add some "flesh" to the "skeleton" to complete the whole work.
And "" is to directly decompose the shot into individual shots from the director's point of view, and then describe it in language, similar to the "Naming" in comic works. It is equivalent to first drawing the movie into a comic ~IndoMTL.com~ and then interpreting the comic as a manual for filming by text.
For the big country of comics, film directors are uniquely endowed with this kind of "transformation" skills. Which director can't draw two storyboards?
However, in the preparation stage of this new Takeshi Nishino work, at least at this stage, all the characters read only the "script" in the traditional sense, and everyone knows nothing about Takeshi Nishino's shooting plan.
But then I have to say it again, when have such professional performance shooting knowledge been possessed by those little loli who are junior high school students?
Even Watanabe Mayu, who looks like a girl with a woman's heart, doesn't have any concept of "acting" at all.
At this moment, she is with her best friend "Miss" Kashiwagi Yuki on the deck of the cruise ship "Izumaru", showing their unconcealed excitement and excitement with scissor hands at the camera, waiting to take a picture of "Memorial On Board" "Woolen cloth.
"Are you ready? Hi, Qi-si!"
Linda, who was holding the camera, also carefully pressed the shutter.
