At the US space station, a male astronaut and a female colleague were out of the cabin to repair the telescope, a missile hit a Russian satellite. The debris generated by the chain sped in a synchronous orbit and violently collided with the space shuttle. Except for the two who left the cabin, all other astronauts died.

Afterwards, the two astronauts who were floating outside without any power tried every means to return to Earth. They encountered many dangers. The male astronaut Xiu sacrificed himself for An and made An board the empty International Space Station. With this, he used the power to approach China's Tiangong Space Station. The various failures during this period made Ruian almost desperate, but by seeing Matt's illusion before she died, she cheered up and found a way to board the China Tiangong Space Station, and finally drove the Shenzhou spacecraft back to Earth.

The script is already ripe for Liu Dehua and Maggie Cheung, who have been preparing for nine months.

They thought they could even recite the lines, but they were not easy to capture when shooting?

Unfortunately, they got stuck in the first shot.

Li Donglai gave them a real threat.

The first lens, the long lens.

Perfect long shot.

It won't be the last long shot either.

Li Donglai wanted to crown the long shot through this drama.

When perfect long shots follow one after another, the audience will feel their heart stop beating and even forget to breathe.

When space debris hits the face, the audience will subconsciously dodge several times. Li Donglai wants this effect. He wants to break the barriers between the movie and reality through this movie, so that the audience can feel that he is not the audience but the person in the play.

Such high-demand long shots naturally require actors to fully grasp the coherence of their acting skills.

If there is no need, Li Donglai really doesn't want to call CUT.

"Graining" opened with a large panoramic view, and it took more than ten minutes of complete long shots to show the beauty of space and the state of people's movements under zero gravity weightlessness.

Li Donglai specially invited astronauts as consultants nearby to help capture some unscientific pictures.

The long shots give the audience a sense of reality to the greatest extent, presenting the state and feeling of weightlessness rather than the fact of weightlessness itself to the audience. It is consistently synchronized in time and space, which is an advantage that montage techniques do not have.

Even if you use long shots, different directors and different shot schedulings will have great visual differences. Li Donglai has put a lot of effort into the first long shot.

The rotation is slow, sometimes outer space appears in the camera, sometimes beautiful earth appears, and sometimes spaceships flash by. These are the scenes that carefully examine, repeatedly verify, give up and give up, and finally make decisions.

The deputy director team behind Li Donglai racked their brains to this end.

He is a person who pursues perfection. This shot must at least be perfect in terms of internal scheduling. Only by doing his best can the audience feel perfect. When it comes to long shots, perhaps many Americans will think of the classic science fiction film "2001 Space Odyssey" many years ago. But Li Donglai wants to tell Americans that Kubrick can surpass it.

Therefore, an excellent photographer is essential.

Li Donglai found Emmanuel Lubezki, who was born in Mexico and is 48 years old this year.

There are many excellent photographers in Hollywood and even the world. In the past, Li Donglai has worked with many film photographers, and they are also very good. But after some screening and understanding, Li Donglai finally found him.

His shots have a very quiet feeling. He has taken photos of "Chocolate" qiongren", "Blackhead Valley", "Boxing King Ali", "Your Mom So Much", "Son of Humanity", "Tree of Life", etc. These movies are all films nominated for the best photography, and the rewards they received are also shocking.

Facts have proved that Emmanur is indeed a good candidate. After several running-in, he was able to cooperate well with Li Donglai's ideas.

"Sister Maggie Cheung, thank you for your hard work, take a break. You can't do it so hard. Shooting is not a matter of one or two days." Li Donglai took the initiative to call for a pause and let everyone rest.

The first shot is so difficult, and you have to pursue angles bit by bit. The movie scenes are piled up in seconds, which is really not a small project. Now, the resentment of Liu Dehua and Maggie Cheung who were left behind by Li Donglai for several months of training instantly dissipated. If it weren't for those months of professional training, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find the state now.

The thick space suit has become the biggest obstacle to the actor's physical strength. Every time he takes off, he has to sweat out of his body. Both of them are so tired that they can't speak, and they sit there and drink water constantly.

"It's too hot. Are you really installed with an air conditioner? I feel like I'm almost suffocating in the desert." Liu Dehua breathed, his face a little pale.

Li Donglai pointed to the specially installed central air conditioner next to him. It had been adjusted to below 20 degrees and kept cooling, but it was still so hot that it was unbearable.

It's all because of the bright headlights below...

"What are you doing? It's simply nonsense." A sudden roar scared everyone.

When I looked back, I found that an old man with gray hair was holding their script and full of anger. Li Donglai was just a monk, but he was smiling carefully, "Old Zhang, what's wrong?"

It was Li Donglai who specially invited the crew to be a consultant for scientific and technological guidance, a veteran expert at the satellite launch base and a national treasure-level figure.

Mr. Zhang didn't buy it at all and said loudly: "Look at the things you set up! When you maintain the Hubble Telescope, you can actually see the International Space Station? What do you think? Ah?! And it's only a few steps from the International Space Station to Tiangong-1, and it's just a few steps away. It's just nonsense. Do you know how far it is to get from the Hubble Telescope to the Space Station? You can't see the space station at all, because their orbital height and inclination angle are different. The International Space Station's orbital height is about 370 kilometers and inclination angle is 51.6°; while the Hubble Space Telescope is about 559 kilometers and inclination angle is 28.5°."

"Also, after ninety minutes, your space debris came again? Funny! It's so funny. Have you ever read about physics? In space, they have long been floating where they have been floating. You said they have returned to the orbit just now. From the Hubble Telescope to the International Space Station and Tiangong-1, orbital spacecraft needs several orbital changes to complete. The energy required for this is not enough for a space shuttle to be fully loaded with fuel, let alone Liu Dehua relies on that small jet pack."

Director Li Da was scolded and smiled with a shy face. He felt very embarrassed.

Mr. Zhang’s reprimand is not finished yet, “Also, after the space shuttle was destroyed by satellite debris, the surviving male protagonist searched for the surviving female protagonist. When he flew to the female protagonist, he couldn’t stop. So he shouted in the communication system that the female protagonist would catch him. As a result, the female protagonist really caught him!”

Zhang Lao stared at him tightly, hoping to knock on his forehead.

"Yes...yes. What's wrong?"

Even Li Donglai stuttered, and everyone stared at them in amazement.

"Absurd!" Mr. Zhang shouted, his voice was really huge.

"You really let her catch it? The male protagonist bumped into the female protagonist and stopped there, and the two of them hugged each other! I couldn't stop the moment before, how did I stop at this moment? Where did the conservation of energy go? Do you still have superpowers? Multiplying mass by speed equals kinetic energy, where did the energy go? Can you still hit the spark of love? If you have the ability, stop me."

Li Donglai was sweating wildly and wiped his forehead. Even Liu Dehua and others in the distance were embarrassed.

He was caught and scolded severely. Mr. Zhang's voice was too loud, and even the staff of Jiuquan Space Center were alarmed. When the leader heard the news, he thought there was a dispute and hurried over to see the situation.

Then everyone saw it. Li Donglai was scolded by the old man like a primary school student. He kept nodding his head and no one around dared to persuade him.

The leader knew his temper, "Old Zhang, this is making a movie. Can it be understood if there is something unreasonable? Movies are art, not science. There must be some artistic effect! After all, this is a movie, not a documentary."

"Well, that's it." Old Zhang still had a loud voice, but there was no anger at all. The thunder was loud and the rain was small. He scolded Li Donglai just now. He was not angry. It seemed that he was born with a loud voice like thunder. "But there are so many questions, how can you stand it."

Li Donglai wiped his sweat again and said, "Some places can be modified to make it more in line with scientific common sense. But Hubble ignored it. If this is not true, then I don't need to shoot my movie."

Old Zhang hummed a few times and stopped talking. Seeing the interior view of the Heavenly Palace arranged in the distance, his eyes lit up, "Let me see your arrangement."

Then the prop master was in trouble and was caught and scolded. His voice seemed to be thundering. The prop master forced his face to make records and then went down to modify it.

Despite many unreasonable things, the shooting must continue.

After all, only a few of them have the ability to study space bugs.

The crew has started, and staying for one more day will burn a lot of money.

Rotation has become one of the most used lenses outside long lenses.

Whether it is the huge light box composed of LED lights that plays a key role in shooting, or the dynamic photography equipment Bot&Dolly, which is tailor-made for this film, which has seven axes, free axial directions, tracking and shooting for up to 10.8 meters, moving speed per second, and resting distance up to 0.08mm accurate." Everything looks so outstanding.

Not to mention the huge CG that has been making a long time ago.

Just thinking about it makes you feel overwhelmed, not to mention that one lens is shot at one lens, not to mention that every lens is so perfect?

The key issue of long lenses is not "long", but the scheduling within the lens, which involves almost every aspect you can think of, such as photography, lighting, actors, sounds, props, etc.
