Guo Jingming, you are neither a good director nor a good screenwriter

Finished reading "Sunny Collection".

Salute to the actors, you did a great job!

Salute to the later period, you did a great job!

Salute to the capital, your money is really spent!

Salute to Fu Hua Dao, your performance is awesome!

But, Guo Jingming, you are the worst! Your core is the worst!

The flaws in "Qing Ya Ji" come from two aspects.

First, the script. Second, the lens language.

What I'm going to say next will be very hard to hear. It's only for Guo Jingming's script and directing ability, and don't use other people's efforts to explain it to him.

Script flaws

(1) Don't pay attention to the collection of data in the early stage!

Anyone who does a script should have a good habit of collecting information! Take "Qing Ya Ji" about Onmyoji Seimei as an example, the most basic thing for screenwriters is to understand the profession of Onmyoji!

What does Onmyoji do? What are his abilities? What kind of person can be an onmyoji? The rise and fall of the profession of Onmyoji.

These most basic data collection must be in place!

But what about Guo Jingming? Turn a blind eye! Onmyoji is a profession. People who don't know anything about this profession will naturally not be able to express the special and interesting aspects of Onmyoji! Let people have almost zero professional concept of Onmyoji!

What I want to say is, if you don't understand, don't write! If you want to write, take some time and sincerity to collect information and organize it well! Come up with an opinion! I don't care what you do offline, you can't see any trace of your efforts in your videos! This is a shame as a screenwriter, and it is a dereliction of duty as a director! Guo Jingming, since you are a screenwriter and director, as long as you work hard, there is no reason to express it! Either you didn't do it! Either you are limited!

(2) Because of insufficient preparation of materials in the early stage, the character design collapsed!

Here, first pass a concept. The collapse of the character design mainly refers to the collapse of the protagonist's character design! The point of the collapse of the character set is that this character is not centralized, but marginalized! Simply put, the other characters hide the aura of the protagonist.

Why do you say that?

When a person exists in this world, it is not things that come to trouble him, but his actions that cause things to happen.

For example, in the play "Onmyoji" in 2001, Abe Seimei, because of his arrogance and arrogance, provoked a small-bellied archmage, making him very embarrassed in front of the emperor. So he had to fight with Seimei, which caused a series of troubles involving ghosts! These troubles involve the safety and interests of many people, and even endanger the country! Seimei turned the tide, and at the prompt of his friend Boya, knew that in the battle for fame and fortune, no one could see the truth of happiness. Seimei is arrogant, Boya is warm, and it is natural for the two to become friends.

main character! It should be the initiator of the event! The disaster area where things broke out! He must have the ability to pick up the pieces! Make the right value judgment! to resolve this matter!

On the other hand, in the "Qing Ya Ji", Seimei, what is his identity when it comes to killing snakes? A mage is still 1/4 of existence. Killing snakes is not his main duty, he just does it on behalf of the master. It is not his responsibility to protect the queen, but the responsibility of the master Shikigami! What is he running for? When he found out that the matter was serious, what reason did he have to deal with the aftermath? To save a good friend? Everything feels understated, unnecessary, and inhumane.

Qingming is the best Onmyoji. His abilities are more attractive than his face. Guo Jingming is too much to sell the beauty of the best Onmyoji!

The most unbearable thing is that male love beats heterosexuality? I really want to spit the fragrance! If you want to provoke the heterosexual world, do you not know who you are?

(3) The film has no theme at all!

I'm sure all audiences are like me, seeing big subtitles like "Name is the shortest spell" on the big screen of the movie

OK, I'm looking forward to why the name is the shortest spell!

The results of it? I waited for 120 minutes and didn't say anything, but went to talk about "obsessedness and protection"

From a philosophical point of view, there is no direct relationship between obsession and guardianship! You take it out, it doesn't make any sense! We are all adults, we all have obsessions, and we all have protection. You don’t need to say it! Can you say something that everyone doesn't know? Obviously, Guo Jingming's knowledge has not been able to cover a higher level, and cannot explain the profound connotation of the philosophical level!

So we can only find a love story to play the low-end, use bells and whistles as packaging, and deceive young consumers! Simply put, young consumers are fools in Guo Jingming's eyes! Because I don't understand, I hold stinky feet! Being fed dog food, they said it was delicious! Poisoning teenagers, but teenagers say that appearance is justice with correct values! Men are king!

Omit ten thousand words and spit fragrance!

Even elementary school students know that writing a composition off topic is a zero point. Guo Jingming, who relied on new concept composition to change his destiny, turned his back on the subject and sold dog meat! I just want to know if your original intention to write the article was eaten by a dog!

(4) The relationship between characters is too simple to support a 120-minute plot

Everyone counts with your fingers, how many characters in "Qing Ya Ji" have more than 50 lines? Seimei, Boya, Princess Changping, He Shouyue, Master. Gone! Others have fewer lines!

Such a simple relationship between characters can only support a 30-minute plot! The remaining 90 minutes are filled with water!

This is too much!

I can accept that you shoot a 5-10 minute plot! better! real! And you can play to your advantage, which is pleasing to the eye!

I can also accept you to challenge the 30-minute plot! Improve skills step by step, learn from experience, give full play to the strengths of words, and make the modern film industry icing on the cake! This is the sincerity and hard work of the filmmakers!

If you want to learn from Tsui Hark's Di Renjie, then someone must have the ability to bury clues and ambush. Such a simple relationship between characters is immediately seen by someone with a bit of logic. What's the point?

If you want to learn from Chen Sicheng's Chinatown detective, then you need a process of logical reasoning. With such a simple relationship between characters and the convenient identity of a mage, why don't you want to spend some time designing it?

If you want to learn Wuershan's dragon-seeking art, then you need to accumulate common sense of "the mountain doctor's fate", play some high-end operations, and don't take the 100-star game of Daji, can you?

If you want to make money, no problem!

Gentlemen love fortune, in a proper way! Don't be false, show the basic skills in real, put a little more effort into the script, develop obscenely, don't be fooled!

The director's flaw

(1) The film is a visual language, not a promotional film!

I think directors who can shoot commercials are very powerful! However, few directors who make promotional films and commercials dare to pat their chests and say that I can make movies!

However, Guo Jingming, who was obviously not qualified to shoot a promotional film, was able to shoot a 120-minute promotional film with a lot of money, and he charged a fee, which is really unbearable!

As for the narrative method of film language, Guo Jingming has also read the most basic splicing theory of far, all, medium and near, but he has no in-depth understanding of what lens language is.

Visually speaking, the far, the middle and the near are special, each performing their own duties! The long-range view, the environment, the panoramic view of the location, the medium shot of the characters, the close-up view of the relationship between the characters, and the close-up to express emotions.

These most basic contents, in Guo Jingming's films, are used indiscriminately, the beauty is real, and the story is shit!

The long lens is used for what you want, and you still think your shots are pretty good, right?

Don't blame him, the script is not well written, and the camera is not well used! It is estimated that the camera team and the lighting team are not cheap. The photographer can only shoot according to the direction in his mind, take a few more shots, and find a way in the later stage! In the later stage, the teacher is even more awesome. One shot can be upgraded to create a crazy soundtrack for several seconds, a Raman progress bar, and crazy water injection, which makes the audience feel beautiful. It's really not easy! If you don't give 10 points to the later stage, I feel sorry for such a dedicated team!

(2) Other directors focus on the big and let go of the small, and Guo Jingming hides his clumsiness!

Excellent directors are demanding on scripts! Which screenwriter writes an outline with less than 10,000 words? Which screenwriter has less than 100 shows when writing a screenplay? Which screenwriter's lines don't ponder over and over again? Which screenwriter's scene isn't over and over again? Which screenwriter doesn't try to create small contradictions and big contradictions to promote the development of events?

Of course, the director is even more so. Considering the means of expression, what montage method can be used here to highlight the tension? What techniques can be used to express clues without publicizing them? How can I make the villain hide longer? How can we clear the suspicion of the villain?

Famous Detective Conan is a textbook level, why don't you study it, Guo Jingming?

The director's pursuit of the ultimate in visual expression is to let the audience's emotions follow the expression of the camera language and go deep into it, that is, no urine!

When Guo Jingming watched "Qing Ya Ji" himself, did he dare to drink water? How many people who drank water endured until the end to go to the toilet? I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back, I drank two bottles of Qingku, and went to the toilet in 60 minutes. I can't wait to use the mouse to fast-forward, can you understand?

Guo Jingming, your efforts are all on the outside, and you haven't looked at yourself at all!

It's like you pursue luxury goods and mansions, but in the eyes of real artists, you still can't get on the table!

You have a lot of money, that's because young people hold your stinky feet every year!

However, young people will grow up one day, and you can't live forever in the safe and comfortable area you think!

Take more time to learn the professional knowledge of film, take more time to study your own script, take more time to analyze piece by piece, take more time to go to the world of ordinary people to see what is life! Take more time to see how the sublimation of art is accomplished, take more time to study human nature, take more time to study culture, take more time to try small creations, and take more time to do something good for yourself. meaningful things.

You are not a genius, but you are enjoying the dreams of countless filmmakers! You don't cherish what you have, but it is the starting point for those of us who have a movie dream to pursue in our life! Please be kind, please be kind, please do your job seriously!

Money is earned endless! Please find the young man who wrote the soul in the period of the new concept composition, please work hard for the luxury you have!
