Intern reporter Tao
A great journey, a visual feast. Last night, the Central Propaganda Department, Literature Research Center, the Central Party History Research Office, the National Development and Reform Commission, State Administration of Radio and China Central Television jointly produced the "banner" in the integrated channel CCTV broadcast more than half. This reflects the Chinese Communist Party established the glorious history of 90 years, a 10-episode-length documentary, the audience attracted a great response.
However, as a "flag" the general director of the East but did not relax Yan: "line of the film did not send broadcast before, will have the possibility of change, and then also shows that small changes in the preliminary work is not in place." Since 1987 to enter the China Central Television social education center, Yan Dong has been a major theme in the documentary and the creation of special programs. On "banner", who had produced "a hundred years Xiaoping", "Yang Shangkun", "great journey" and other well-known television documentary said: "I want to thank" banner "give me back this revolutionary discovery and understanding History of the opportunity, I and my colleagues to do just as much as possible close to the real. reproduce the authentic history of the process, is a shock to me. "
140 days working towards glory "banner"
In the West Fourth Ring TV home of the "banner" crew, Yan Dong room wall was a huge color occupy the work schedule. Diversity director, aerial group, group interviews ... ... and each sector-specific division of labor progress are marked clearly. "Flag" when the total length of 500 minutes, put in the past, such a body to complete the amount of "large", time-consuming the three years, as short as one year; but Yan Dong and his team received in late November of last year to the task, to April 23 this year, sent the first instance, but only took 140 days.
Experienced Yan Dong has grown used to the "forced march" like work: "Some of the theme is the sudden, no time to prepare, this time deep accumulation is vital." Locked herself in the room are familiar with materials of the first few days , the division of tasks of team members already in the minds of the East Yan initial shape: "I call it the 'three-dimensional mode', the unit is almost the same period lavished on the different 'battle', the rear information group, is also simultaneously working group interview. "According to this model, Yan Dong command of his team dispatched to Shanghai, Zhejiang, Hunan, Guangdong and other 11 provinces photojournalism, 140 days actually accumulated 3200 minutes of the various types of material.
Despite the time constraints, but Yan Dong of the requirements of the screen is excellence. "Banner" shooting early in midwinter season, but Yan Dong puts the film as "a feel warm work", so he sets in Pianxiang request to delay aerial task later, only to be collected spring picture. On June 1, only 18 days away from launch, staff at the Millennium Monument in aerial photography, just met the young pioneers in organizing events, on-site that read, "We are the successors of communism," the great banner for Yan Dong excited, he also put the picture into the program, "unintentional make, can be described as God."
To outsiders, Yan Dong requirements and sometimes to the point of almost demanding. For example, in showing pictures of the precious documents, lining in the literature following is a red flag, but red flag is not set in stone, but according to the program referred to in different historical periods, divided into linen, velvet and silk three materials, in order to reflect changing times. Yan Dong admitted, "Sometimes the audience may not notice the changes in these small objects." But as a creator, he stressed, "I am looking for hard times in the stigma, and hope that these details into the creation."
Precious image to restore the historical truth
In the film "banner" in the process, CCTV Audio Archive has mobilized more than 20 people formed a data editing group, from a large database to screen up to 11,163 minutes of valuable image data. Very fortunate that, as early as 2006, the museum launched a valuable information on rescue, rehabilitate Yan Dong and his creative team to obtain image data, there are nearly 100 of the data is restored and the first public of.
How to make these huge selection of image data? Yan Dong replied: "We know from our history as much as possible of them to find more fresh material, especially our general audience is difficult to understand the material." Yan Dong, for example, Power Allied Forces occupied Beijing in about the this history, the "flag" the use of occupied houses flying a foreign flag picture, "very shocked, very humiliating."
"We use the principles of data used is to choose the number of small, good quality." Reflect the history of the war documentary, the frequent use of the surrender ceremony on the USS Missouri, the history of the lens, but an internal reference in the film written and directed Mrs accidental see a lens, is the Palace Square, the Japanese army surrendered on the screen. Yan Dong believes that "The shot of the release of appeal, on the deck than in Missouri even greater," he eventually placed on the film.
"In any documentary, even a little inaccurate, so the audience will cast doubt on the whole work, the real historical events and figures, it becomes a fictional story." Yan Dong understand, although director and hope that their work There are new things there, but the premise of all creation must be true and accurate. Reflected in the editorial, "54" campaign, when the contents of this historical event, there is documentary director who used to see other than a rare lens, but found in the scrutiny, the screen characters dress and the incident does not match the season , so they surrendered.
Ninety old "last big thing"
One day in early January this year, Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, under a heavy snow since. Jinggangshan has been closed, only car carrying six people, hanging anti-skid chains for vehicles in difficult mountain covered with snow crawling. They are the "banner" director Mrs led a crew. In order to capture mountain images, the team from day four in the morning they started up the mountains. Early morning hours, they arrived at the mountain huangyangjie, Mrs Zhu De in the year to stay here to see the inscription, Emotion of the characters she suddenly felt the older generation of revolutionaries of the heroic spirit. In a later creation process, this emotion has been lingering in her mind.
"Through the lens of language, I hope the audience can understand our feelings after this period of history to understand." Yan Dong asked my colleagues, each lens must be taken with emotion. For this requirement, the Mrs has deep experience. She said she read about the Red Army in the data, the image in the minds of all fictitious; to Ruijin, but local, and not from feeling nervous to see the cloud Rock Hill, see the departure of people lived in the temple, she I suddenly realized, "the gap between reality and imagination in the people's heart there is a shock."
"Banner" More than 60 people focused on the high end of the interview, they are either witnesses of the times, or is witness to history. Yan Dong them called "banner" and "second branch creative team." To so many people in a short interview, obviously not easy, but "flag" the creative team has been the interviewee their support. Chairman of the Board such as the Haier Group Zhang in line with the interview plan, specially from the U.S. back home; while the original was on the South Infirmary Hong Kong and Macao Office of the State Council, LU Ping, also made a special trip back to Beijing one day to be interviewed.
Yan moved most of the eastern Jiangsu Wujiang named Xi natural elderly. This year is the 93-year-olds, Songjiang County, Shanghai was the first meeting of the representatives on behalf of people of various circles, that meeting the new China's first county-level People's Congress of all walks of life. "Old just finished surgery, heard the crew to arrive, excited a few days did not sleep well." Yan Dong said that the reference year scenario, the old man always very excited, to the crew about the past, the arm will be very strong waving. Yan Dong have very mixed feelings: "He is the last of the shooting as a major event in the life."
Classic Memory
45 seconds How to Make titles?
Full-length documentary "Flag" emblem to symbolize the proven casting begins, it rushes out of the molten steel seems to tell us about the great history of the Chinese Communist Party Masters of Fire. This stunning 45 seconds titles, in fact, taken in Anshan Iron and Steel Group completed. "Banner" visual packaging director Zhou Jue said: "The new China's first steel furnace on from Anshan, where we completed the shooting, but its meaning is best."
However, the process of shooting the picture titles but was not successful. In order to ensure that the shooting, the crew hopes the process of casting the slower the better; can to combat when it is found that due to temperature and other issues, making early solidification of molten steel, can not meet the design requirements. To overcome this problem, the second shooting, steel workers will be heated to 1,800 degrees Celsius. When the hot molten steel flowing in the emblem of the mold, the presence of all was a sight that shocked.
However, for close-ups of this picture photographer, it is definitely experienced a "hot" passion. "Banner" Liu revealed that visual designers, from the molten steel too close because the photographer wearing Jackets are burned up; this temperature even far beyond the machine could afford, so that the use of shooting two high-definition cameras are emerging smoking. Fortunately, the film was finished all the images intact.
