Question 1: What is the lens language of photography? Lens language; as the name suggests, it is to use the lens to express our meaning like language. We can usually see the photographer's intention through the pictures taken by the camera, because we can feel the shooting from the changes in the subject and pictures it shoots. What the reader wants to express through the lens, this is the so-called 'my lens can speak', which is commonly known as 'lens language'. In the world of images, although it is different from ordinary speech expressions, the purpose is The same, so there are no rules for lens language. As long as you use the lens to express your meaning, no matter what lens method you use, it can be called lens language.

Question 2: How to make lenses in movies Analysis: Key points of lens analysis: Interesting center

The interesting center in the picture is the place that attracts the audience's attention. There are many ways to catch the viewer's eye, but in cinematography, the areas with the most contrast are generally the ones that grab the viewer's attention the most. Just like a little light in the darkness, no matter where the light comes from in the scene, it is instantly caught by the audience's eyes. The intrinsic interest center in the film is also very important. For example, when we are watching a movie, we often notice that a certain bad guy secretly took out a gun behind his back. As long as the gun is not out of focus, no matter whether it is The position and proportion of the gun in the picture will be noticed by people at a glance. In addition, the golden ratio and guiding lines are all things that need to be paid attention to when setting the center of interest.

2. Lighting style and color style:

First of all, is the lighting low-key, high-key, or high-contrast style? This lighting is very important. Most of the time spent in filming a movie is spent adjusting the complex lighting of each shot.

Generally speaking, lighting style has a great relationship with the theme and atmosphere of the movie. For example, in comedies, the lighting is relatively bright, there are few shadow layouts, and a high-key style is often used. If the lights are dimmed in a comedy, then the comedy will usually have some irony in it. Mysteries and thrillers both tend to be understated, with a lot of shading being done in a transmissive style. Tragedies and Hollywood blockbusters generally like to use a high-contrast style.

Again, about color. Every color film has a certain basic tone. Color is highly symbolic of the film. Generally speaking, famous color schemes have an expressionistic flavor. Generally speaking, cool colors represent calm, alienation, and tranquility; warm colors represent aggression, violence, and violence. Specifically, red is generally related to sex and sex, such as "American Beauty"; low-key lighting and dark tones generally express depressive suspense and a sense of fate, such as "The Godfather"; faded dark yellow tones express conservatism. , such as "The Age of Innocence" and so on. It is worth noting that the black and white clips that suddenly appear in the color film are the parts with the strongest and most obvious symbolic meaning. Generally, movies used to show the fascist era are shown in black and white. For example, the sudden whitening of the tone in the play "Life is Beautiful" symbolizes the beginning of a hellish life. Of course, some movies, such as "Schindler's List", are simply shot in black and white.

Three lens distances and lens types

Including:

Long shots generally always show the location of the scene. If people appear in the distance, they are only the size of spots. This kind of shot often appears in epic works and is often seen in western movies. Recently

Lu Le’s wide vistas of Hokkaido in “If You Are the One” are very beautiful.

The long view is slightly smaller than the long view.

Mid-shot is a shot that can include two or three people. Mid-shot is the mainstream of comedy films.

Close-up means close-up.

Deep focus shot. Taken with a wide-angle lens. When we watch movies, we often feel that in many shots, only one area is clear, and the background behind is all blurry. That thing is called a shallow focus lens, which means the focus is very shallow. A deep focus lens shows everything clearly from front to back. Which one is better, deep focus or shallow focus, was a matter of great debate in the history of film at first. When we take photos and portraits, we generally think that shallow focus lenses are more beautiful because they can blur the messy background and highlight the beautiful people. The same is true in movies. Which parts are clear and which parts are blurred are all decided by the director. And the method the director relies on is zoom.

Zoom can give a simple plot a metaphorical effect. But Andre Bazin, a generation of film masters, felt that this kind of lens was not good. Bazin felt that this kind of lens simplified and simplified the meaning of a very complex event. So Bazin felt that deep focus lenses were better. "Citizen Kane" is a perfect example of the use of deep focus lenses. PS: Deep focus lenses are also called depth lenses.

Regarding the distance of the lens, Chaplin has a famous saying: "Use long shots for comedy and close-ups for tragedy." For example, when he shows the absurd situation of a character in the distance, we will laugh; but when he suddenly cuts to a close-up to highlight the emotion, we will find that the funny part is no longer ridiculous, and we begin to sympathize with this person.

Moreover, the distance of the camera affects our involvement in the film. When we are far away, no matter whether this person is a good person or a bad person, we are indifferent. But when zoomed in close-up, good people will make us sympathize; bad people will make us sincerely hate them.

4. Camera angle and character position

Camera angle generally includes bird’s-eye view angle, depression angle, horizontal angle, elevation angle, tilt angle, etc.

The purpose of a bird's-eye view is to shoot directly from above, giving the audience a sense of wonder... >>

Question 3: How to use the director's lens language if you really don't know. How to write it? Just memorize the effects of push, pull, pan, distance, full, medium and near. You can just copy it. I’ve attached the details below. But I can tell you that this will definitely not be very good writing. It can only be mediocre at best. It is best to find a professional and basic book to read, such as a book from Zhongchuan Publishing House that is basically a textbook.

One more thing, do you want to take the directing major in an art school? In fact, each school has very different quality requirements for directing students. For example, the directing major of Communication University of China does not require candidates to have professional knowledge at all, while some schools do. You'd better first find out what the school you want to take the exam has for this major, and then start preparing.

As for Forrest Gump, I will just quote the beginning of an article written by someone on the Internet for you to learn from: At the beginning of the film, in the gray-blue sky, a piece of feather fluttered in the wind and passed Forrest Gump. The city I lived in was blown down by the wind for a while, and then blown high into the sky by the wind. After spinning around in the air, it finally landed at the feet of the protagonist of the story. This is a long shot of the director using feathers to flutter in the wind, leaving the audience with endless imagination about feathers and paving the way for the development of the storyline. And it also foreshadows another long shot about feathers in the ending. As the feathers fell, the camera took a close-up of Forrest Gump's muddy and worn-out sneakers. The close-up shot replaced the director's expression of emotion, hinting that the shoes would be used as a factor in promoting the development of the plot. Next, the protagonist carefully picked up the feather on the ground and clamped the feather in his notepad. At this time, the background of the notepad was the endless blue sky.

The art of narration The simpler the story, the more important it is how it is told, and telling a story is almost entirely analyzed through the lens of the beautiful Amélie. Overall the writing is pretty good. As for the writing method, first of all you have to read more

Question 5: Film review of Life is Beautiful, from professional perspectives such as shooting techniques, lens language, etc. "Life is Beautiful" - Great Fatherly Love This film is directed by an Italian national treasure director Roberto Benigni wrote, directed and acted, telling a story about family and love, with ups and downs in the plot and touching the heart. The film won many awards including the Cannes Film Festival Jury Prize and the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. It is a masterpiece worthy of your collection. Guido, an optimistic and cheerful Jewish young man, drove to the city with his friends. On the way, he met the beautiful female teacher Dora, and the two fell in love with each other. After several hardships, the two got married. But the good times didn't last long. On their son's birthday, Guido and his son were forcibly taken to a Nazi concentration camp because they were Jews. Dora had no Jewish ancestry, but in order to be with her husband and son, she also boarded the train to the concentration camp. They were held separately in the concentration camp. In order to prevent his son's young heart from being hurt, Guido "cheated" him by saying that this was a game held for his birthday. The rules of the game were that he could not cry, make trouble, or miss his mother. The first child to get 1,000 points would win. He could get a real tank, and his son believed it. Guido also wants to find ways to report to his wife that he is safe. In the end, Guido died tragically at the gunpoint of the German army for the safety of his son. There are many films that reflect the World War II period. The main thing they have in common is that they exaggerate death and blood. But these are not directly reflected in this film, and instead there are more laughter and tears. First of all, Guido is a brave man. He fell in love with Dora and pursued her bravely. No matter how rough the road was, he finally did it. Secondly, Guido is a responsible man. When they were in the concentration camp, Guido never forgot to take care of his son or get in touch with his wife.

In his heart, family affection and love are his whole life, so in the end he did not hesitate to sacrifice his own life to save his son, which shows the greatness of father's love. There are several scenes in the film worth mentioning: The first is the funny scene where Guido pretends to be an inspector and comes to Dora's school to dance a "striptease". This scene is to attract Dora's attention and thus shows that Guido is a brave man. A man with a great sense of humor. Secondly, before being executed, Guido walked like a clown to his son who was hiding behind bars. This was to prevent his son from being afraid and to go to death happily, which reflected the great fatherly love. In the end, the son and his mother got together and said to her: "We won, we got 1,000 points, we won." "This is the most sad scene. We are sad for Guido's sacrifice and moved that the child's heart was not harmed. Guido's death was worth it. The film tells us that pain is only temporary, and only optimistic people can get beautiful things. Life. If you are a person who loves life, if you are a person who knows how to cherish, if you are a good father, then you must watch this movie: The life and death game between father and son: "Beautiful Life" - Screen. Visual Classic: "Life is Beautiful" Screenwriter: Vincenzo Ceramiro Berto Benigni Director: Roberto Benigni Photography: Toni Nodelicoli Music: Nicola Piovani Starring: Roberto Bernini Niccoletta Braschi Giorgio Cantarini Produced by Melanpo Film Company, Italy Distributed by China Film Group Translation: Shanghai Film Translation Factory To be honest, after watching this "Life is Beautiful" "Before, there was always some criticism of comedy-type art films. Moreover, "Life is Beautiful" is a film that reflects and describes the Nazi atrocities during the war, so I can always think of a Western film that specializes in comedy creation. Can the filmmaker Roberto Benigni shoot the completely tragic "Schindler's List" by the great director Steven Spielberg? Can he shoot the completely sad "The Pianist" by Romansky? I compare? I doubt that Roberto Benigni can even have half the depth of the anti-Nazi film "Lily Marlene" by the genius director Fassbinder, right? It's not funny, it's about depth. I haven't seen Roberto Benigni. This is what I thought before "Life is Beautiful". In addition, those wars are cruel and tragic, and there seems to be no comedy at all. This is common sense to everyone. A major film critic said: Comedy itself often cannot bear heavy tears. This "Life is Beautiful" was produced by the Italian Meilanpo Film Company. Oh, by the way, the version I saw was accidentally dubbed by Shanghai Film Translation Company. I had the opportunity to watch another film by Roberto Benigni, and all the viewers seemed to mention his "Life is Beautiful". People often lamented the achievements of this film and said. It has won too many awards, including the Oscar for Best Extra... >>

Question 6: Lens Language Analysis For the conceptual part of audio-visual language, I think you can look at Communication University of China "Film and Audiovisual Language" published by the publishing house, the concepts in this book are very complete.

In addition, audiovisual language is a practical course, and it is very important to start with it. There are some reference books for getting started, such as "Analysis of Film and Television Animation Films", "The Lens is Talking", and "Audio-visual Language of Film and Television Animation". Then find your own film analysis.

In addition, I think it is not suitable for animation majors to learn audio-visual language. It must be limited to watching cartoons. Animation is also a type of movie, so on the basis of understanding the basic concepts, it is also beneficial to watch some live-action movies that are more representative in audio-visual language.
