First, the pictures before and after crossing the axis are medium and long shots, and the six-minute long shot entering the room fully explains the indoor layout. Second, the picture has two reference points, namely No. 1 standing and No. 7 wearing a hat.

, they are located exactly at both ends of the long table, that is, on the axis, and the audience can adapt to the new spatial relationship through their positions.

To put it simply, the positions of No. 1 and No. 7 are actually located at both ends of the axis. These two fixed points will allow the camera to retain this virtual axis when it crosses the axis, so that the audience will not feel a jump.

Anyone who has watched the movie will probably find that aside from No. 8, in fact, in the entire movie, the character No. 7’s words don’t actually advance the plot much. Most of the time, his words are more important to the plot.

It's like "nonsense", but why are there so many shots of No. 7?

I am not Director Li Yi, so I don’t know Director Li’s specific thoughts. In my personal opinion, in addition to showing No. 7’s settings of “going with the flow”, “being a wallflower”, “indifferent”, etc., it is more about

Due to the need for axis fixed point.

Because the function of No. 1 is to determine the starting point, then the function of No. 7 is to determine the end point.

One after another, let these two points be fixed, and because of the existence of No. 8, the point No. 7 will be used more. For this reason, this point becomes very important, so naturally it needs to be used from time to time.

Show it.
