"Guo Mingyi" Shooting Notes: party of Kennedy and the beauty of human nature

Party of Kennedy and the beauty of human nature - "Guo Mingyi" Notes taken

"One good thing is not difficult moment, life is hard to do good; a person to do something difficult, the difficulty is able to do everything; one's own is not difficult to do good, the difficulty is to bring many people together; a person touched by strangers is not difficult, the difficulty is to make people around support; one of these people have done, he is - Guo Mingyi in him a reflection of the party of Kennedy and the beauty of human nature, to restore the life of the most authentic appearance, in his goodness, we move to regain the lost peace of mind in his realm, we found a high degree of loss of spiritual home. "in the film" Guo Mingyi, "the brochure, we Write down the case, this is our creative mind.

Initial contact with this subject, we can hardly believe that life really Guoming Yi people. If the story is true Guo Mingyi, how his heart is the realm? In today's lack of faith, respect for the material of society, so how do you make a character image of the audience convinced? Believe that any director receiving the task, when the hearts will be such a doubt.

Into the Anshan Iron and Steel, into Qidashan mine, Guo Mingyi into the home of this confusion a little bit to get the answer: Guo Mingyi is real. Pair of eyes is still transparent, but those simple plain words, those around him is still filled with the passion of the workers are so that we have no doubts. Repeated collisions with the writer, we gradually found a path into his inner world, that is, Guo Mingyi unique concept of happiness.

Guo Mingyi is a "simple" people, but has a great love as ordinary caring people. As we said in the film, he can not face the suffering of others turned away. His happiness is to give happiness, only to help others, his mind to get calm. For material, he saw a very pale, three times for housing, three donated television, numerous contributions, so he and his family had a conflict between. To persuade others to donate stem cells, lobbying for the help of others, so that other people had puzzled him. Film a true representation of these contradictions and conflicts, including family change in attitude.

We do not want the film made into a movie heroes in the usual sense. Traditional heroes are often ordinary people above the top of the noble heart was as if no other-worldly air. Although the final story is true, but not the audience's recognition. The film from the outset to establish such a belief: we want Guoming Yi looks credible, amiable, respectable; make the film looks beautiful.

Movie "Guo Mingyi" is a prototype with real people, real stories in a moderate on the basis of artistic biography of film processing. Original screenplay by the famous writer of high full house featuring creative, distinctive characters, aspirational, with strong texture and flavor of the times of life, for the film's success lay a more solid foundation. However, most of the past heroes of different films, the film's hero is not particularly prominent major stories. Whether blood 56 times, 10 years donated money, or stem cells to help patients with leukemia type, dedication, Guo Mingyi said and done are "broken things", "casual thing." This emphasis on dramatic conflict of film-making is quite difficult. Screenplay narrative clues and more dramatic conflict, emotional ups and downs do not. Relative to the plot is strong, fast-paced, unrestrained commercial feature film, the shooting this film itself is a challenge.

Guo Mingyi movie twice to seize the type of leukemia patients with major events, will be life and death, suspense, conflict focused on performance. Life, death, one out of a dark, make the movie plot the ups and downs. Guo Mingyi suffered badly suffering for others to run around, finally cried after the success of matching, a strong emotional impact that film has a soul-stirring a lively charm. Interspersed donated TV sets, so that housing and other real stories, prioritized, clear structure. Guo Mingyi film accurately depicts the extraordinary but real moving image.

Great publicity through mainstream media, the civil service examinations, on the show, so that the image of the country Guo Mingyi many people know. His deeds in Anshan, Liaoning, and the country are familiar. How to create a real prototype is still alive, many people are familiar Guo Mingyi, and so we recognized a problem. Guo Mingyi film hero played by the famous actor Hou Yong. And Guo Mingyi Hou Yong also of military origin, regardless of shape, God, I have been to all the familiar from Guo Mingyi Guo Mingyi people highly recognized. Film actor selection, image-building served a point. In the characterization, we focus on the expression of this love. From the ordinary people "extension handle" type of small help (such as the station to help people bag), to the type of leukemia patients with hard to find this theme of love throughout the film's end. The performers, the lens design, music and atmosphere, etc., we Guo Mingyi as much as possible to restore the good, respectable.

Different from ordinary commercial films, the film is not only a biography film, but also must be an ideological and artistic both of the movies. In creation, we firmly grasp the film's ideological context. Guo Mingyi the movie closely, "Happiness", reflecting Guo Mingyi "gifts of roses, hand more than Hope" realm.

Anshan Iron and Steel in the spirit of the soil to emphasize. Guo Mingyi is not just a worker, more importantly, the spirit grows in soil of Anshan Iron and Steel. Reflected in a number of scenes the film's momentum Anshan Iron and Steel, the friendship between the workers and accurately convey the impact of Anshan Iron and Steel for Guo Mingyi. Films that focus on shaping the image of his father Guo Mingyi. On the one hand has a real basis (Guo father served as a model worker by Premier Zhou Enlai met with AISC), it also partly explains Guo Mingyi spiritual heritage. Choose the actors, image building, etc., as accurately as possible to restore our spiritual father of this feeling.

Both as an artistic and thoughtful film, in photography, art, music and other aspects must also be accurate and excellent. Film photography Sun Ming is China's best young contemporary photographers; art director Wu Ming involved in too many heavyweight film shoot. The film faithfully restored Guoming Yi family, work environment, pay special attention to the performance of Anshan Iron and Steel, mining, etc. Qidashan scene of the shooting. Carefully selected special time, angle, and strive to capture the atmosphere and the momentum of big industry.

After 40 days of pre-filming, the movie clip into the late stage. We did not stick to the structure of the original script, and in the editing stage and actively try to play to the strength of ongoing creation. The film structure on a lot of adjustments to make it more on the narrative level, there is jumping. Film with a much more three-dimensional space-time description, accelerating pace of the film, an increase of about narration, the movie from the multiple perspectives, multiple space-time, multi-level for a richer, more three-dimensional about.

Li Jie, who created the film's composer had known "red flags fluttering" and other excellent songs. This also contributed to a film as good as the theme song. I write song lyrics using Guoming Yi, Guo Mingyi accurately express the state and feelings. In music, the film is also prepared to theme and variations throughout the film's main theme has always been, so that the film's theme in this feeling to be sublimated.
