393 Five-lens shooting method
"There is also a five-lens shooting method. For example, if you want to show a courier picking up a package, the average person's shooting method is to stand 5 meters away from the courier and record the courier's movements throughout the process.
That’s the end. But have you ever thought that this scene is actually what ordinary people see from a normal perspective. They have seen this scene countless times. Are they still interested in watching it again on your video?
?"
"Yeah." Qi Nian listened carefully to Tian Shuangshuang's words.
"So how do we shoot this scene that everyone is familiar with to create a different feeling? There are routines for this. A film master concluded that the five-shot shooting method is a routine. Which five shots? This involves
The problem of identifying a scene. That is, the lens is divided into macro, close-up, medium shot, long shot, panorama, etc. based on its distance from the subject. When you apply these scene categories to a scene, it gives people
The feeling is different.”
"Well……"
"Do you understand?" Tian Shuangshuang suddenly asked with her big eyes flashing.
Qi Nian shook his head: "You are very professional."
Tian Shuangshuang smiled and said: "That's right, I have done a lot of homework, okay. Let me continue. Today I will teach you all my fifty years of skills."
"No, no, no. Just teach it for forty-five years, old demon from Montenegro."
"Haha. Let's shoot a courier picking up the package. First of all, you can take a close-up shot of the first shot, just shoot the courier's hands. The camera follows his hands to the moped to pick up the package. At this time, the audience will want to know
Whose hand is this? This is the second shot, which captures the upper body of the courier, which is the medium shot."
"Well, close-up and medium shot."
"Next, the audience may be interested in the environment where the characters are. At this time, you can take a long shot or panorama and explain the relationship between the characters and the environment. You can be ten meters away from the courier, or you can be twenty meters away from him.
meters away. The key depends on the environment. If it is just an ordinary street, just let people know that it is a street. If it is in front of a landmark building, you can stand farther away and take pictures of the whole building.
You can also shoot from above, and of course aerial photography is also possible if conditions permit.”
"We don't have that condition."
"That's what I said. However, it's not completely unconditional. Nowadays, a good drone only costs a few thousand yuan."
"Is it so cheap?"
"Of course. How much do you think it will cost?"
Qi Nian thought for a while and said: "Sister Han from the TV station told me that that thing costs at least four to five hundred thousand."
"You are talking about professional equipment. Any kind of equipment is fine for shooting movies. We don't need that kind of equipment to shoot videos. A drone costing several thousand yuan is enough to shoot 1080P high-definition video."
"Yeah. Then you can get one."
"It's absolutely necessary. I went on to say that the audience may be more interested in the courier's perspective, which means that from the courier's point of view, what he is doing now is like. That is, the first-person perspective
.How to shoot it? You can shoot it from the courier’s shoulder. That’s it.”
Tian Shuangshuang demonstrated while talking, letting Qi Nian understand this special angle.
"So we often see shots of one ear exposed in the news, right? That's the first-person perspective. There are four shots. The last shot is the finishing touch and can be used from a very special angle. For example, hiding
Behind a tree, hiding behind a flower, the scene of the courier picking up the package becomes the background. Although this five-lens shooting method shows the same action, it also has a logical relationship. Therefore, it can
The audience has a strong sense of involvement.”
"It turns out there are so many tricks. I feel that some of the things I take are just anecdotes. Others also take anecdotes. Why are they so beautiful? Although after watching it, there is actually no substantive content."
"Yeah. It doesn't have any substantive content, but it actually does have content."
"What content?"
"Comfortable."
"Comfortable?" Qi Nian couldn't understand.
"Hey Brother Anian, have you been bored with writing articles recently? What I mean by comfort is artistry. Are you saying that a vase has no use? But looking at it makes people feel comfortable. This is not what you asked us to improve before.
Well."
"Hey hey hey." It's not that Qi Nian didn't understand, but because Tian Shuangshuang said a lot, some of them got distracted.
However, after listening to what Tian Shuangshuang said, he felt one thing that was different from Tian Shuangshuang's, and that was the blank space.
Blank space is a very unique art form, which is vividly expressed in Chinese freehand paintings. On a large piece of paper, maybe a willow branch or a distant mountain is drawn at a certain angle, and then a few poems are added.
The artistic conception of the whole painting comes out. This is what Tian Shuangshuang calls "comfort".
In videos, in addition to the white space in the composition, empty shots are also a type of white space.
This is widely seen in movies, especially literary and artistic films. This kind of blank space can produce a natural sense of rhythm, which is the so-called rhythm.
Qi Nianzai was disgusted with the article he wrote. The idea and content were all there, but what was missing was a sense of rhythm.
Because self-media texts are inherently fast food culture, the first thing is to attract attention, but attracting attention does not necessarily produce a marketing effect. Only when the "golden sentences" in the article resonate with people, and the rhythm of the expression can influence the emotions.
Rendering. The marketing effect of this article comes out.
"What I just talked about is random shooting. There is also fixed camera shooting. Fixed camera shooting also requires a logical relationship." Tian Shuangshuang looked at Qin Nian with a very focused expression and continued, "For example, if you
First, take a picture of a courier picking up the package, then take a picture of the receipt on the courier, then take a picture of the courier looking up to see the number of the unit building for confirmation, then put the courier under your arm and walk towards the door of the unit.
One scene is when the courier enters the unit door and disappears out of the screen."
Although you can also shoot the whole process in one shot, using one lens, but as I said just now, this kind of shooting is from the perspective of an ordinary person, and others will not be interested in it. So you can
Use some special perspectives, for example, like in "The Matrix", when the courier stands in the middle and looks up at the door of the unit, your camera can circle around the courier. Or use a Hitchcock-style lens.
