Chapter 18 The Little Assistant Director

The morning light of the morning light lazily climbed the white and smooth skin of the mountains; it shone warmly on this quiet earth, and the clouds in the sky floated by, as if following the footsteps of their companions.

The preliminary work of "Fast Food Truck" has been completed, and Sammo Hung notified Li Yihua to come to the crew tomorrow to participate in the God worship ceremony.

The deputy director looks like the director's deputy, but his power and responsibility are extremely powerful and responsibilities. He is simply a bridge. He not only needs to cooperate with the director to direct the film, but also needs to negotiate with the investors and communicate with the actors below. It is simply a combination of director and the scene. It is a very heavy job, and he still has to be silent.

When the film is not well filmed, the assistant director is the director's punching bag. After filming, the director will eventually succeed, and the worker behind the scenes can only stay in seclusion behind the scenes.

After Sammo Hung took the crew to start the filming and worshipped God, he brought the crew of "Fast Food Truck" to feel that Spain was immediately put into filming.

Even though Li Yihua became a director in later generations, he has been a scene record for more than ten years. However, facing the rapid shooting progress in Hong Kong, he has made him dizzy these days.

Nowadays, Li Yihua must have three must-haves: field record board, field record sheet, and script. Field record board belongs to the director department. Although the reward is small and the workload is large, it is the position that can learn the most in the crew. In a certain scene, when the familiar "Action" is recorded and knocked off the field record board, the camera starts to operate at the same time. This action is called "beating the board" or "beating the board". The specific information such as the camera position, scene sequence number and other records on the field record board are to facilitate the search and correspondence during post-editing, so as to avoid confusion in the sequence of scenes.

"Andy Lau, show me the record of today." During the break, Sammo Hung leaned against a chair with sunglasses.

Li Yihua enjoys his busy state now. On the set, Li Yihua experiences that nervous happiness again. It seems that he is born to belong to a movie.

After a while, Li Yihua handed the record to Hong Jinbao: "It's pretty good. One of them needs to be reshooted. Write down this one and reshoot in the afternoon."

"Andy Lau, compare what's wrong with me? Why do I feel so unsmooth?" Sammo Hung looked at the camera in front of him and frowned.

Li Yihua looked at the shot from the side: Jackie Chan and Yuan Biao were running a fast food business in the square. The hipster played by Ke Shouliang brought a gangster here to drive and disturb the people. The two brothers taught him, and went forward and kicked the two of them left and right (the yellow-shirt man on the right side of the screen was Qian Jiale's stand-in). He flipped Xiao Hei. Jackie Chan stepped behind him and kicked the yellow-shirt man (this kicked the substitute Qian Jiale directly on the neck of the sidekick Qian Jiale. The two cooperated well. Li Yihua understood the danger of this action very well. It was really dangerous to miss the key to this contact).

Li Yihua pondered for a while and felt that the film seemed to be missing something. What was missing? Li Yihua looked up at the flying eagle and observed that every time he flew, his wings were very vigorous and powerful.

Li Yihua suddenly had a flash of his mind. There was no problem with the plot. What was missing was a sense of power, and yes, it was a sense of power.

"Brother Hong, you don't feel that their movements are very powerful, but they look soft and weak, lacking a sense of power?" Li Yihua looked at the puzzled Hong Jinbao and reminded him.

"Yes, yes, yes, what is missing is a sense of power." Hong Jinbao suddenly realized. "How to solve it?" Hong Jinbao fell into doubt again.

"You can use power powder, the full English name is power-powder." Li Yihua smiled and explained: "Power powder is like the familiar Via, Bang Bed, and Tomato Sauce, which are all auxiliary props. The main function of power powder is to highlight the strength of the attack and make the action skills more visual."

"Are you saying that such fans will make the audience look very powerful?" Sammo Hung asked uncertainly.

Li Yihua nodded and said, "Like, this kind of gadget is very practical. Even if an actor who knows martial arts uses it, he will make people feel very powerful after using it! It is the first choice for creating a real fighting atmosphere."

"It sounds very good, we can definitely take advantage of it." Hong Jinbao was a little excited when he said it. In fact, since the beginning of the shooting, Li Yihua has put forward many suggestions for construction.

Li Yihua asked the props to buy a box of talcum powder. Li Yihua applied a layer on his cuffs and then made a punching move, and dust flew in an instant.

"The camera feels very strong, and you can use very little strength to emit such a great amount of power." Sammo Hung's eyes widened in surprise.

"Not only that, it has other uses." Li Yihua smiled lightly.

The three Jackie Chan brothers rubbed their hands and said impatiently: "Speak it quickly, I want to know what magical effect it has!"

Li Yihua bent down and grabbed a handful of power fans waved to Hong Jinbao: "Brother Hong, come here." Hong Jinbao walked over with the back of his head, "What are you doing?" Li Yihua ignored Hong Jinbao and continued to sputter some on his arm and chest.

"Okay!" Li Yihua clapped his palms and hooked Sammo Hung, "Put it in a defensive position, raise the arm that is sprinkled with power pink, and I will kick your head with a high hook later. You lift that arm to defend, and then I will take the opportunity to kick your chest."

Hong Jinbao nodded, but saw Li Yihua's right foot quickly lifting up, and everyone felt a strong wind blowing on their faces. The next moment, Li Yihua's right foot had already reached Sammo Hung's arm.

"It's too fast!" Sammo Hung blinked and murmured. With a "bang", Sammo Hung's arm blocked Li Yihua's hook kick, and waves of white dust appeared at the intersection of fists and feet. Then Li Yihua's hook kick turned into a straight kick, and accurately kicked Sammo Hung's chest, and another splash of white dust splashed.

Jackie Chan said to Yuan Biao: "I didn't expect Andy Lau to be so good at kung fu, and I feel ashamed of myself."

Sammo Hung said happily, "It's really amazing. With this treasure, shooting saves a lot of effort!"

When everyone heard Sammo Hung silence, no one expected Sammo Hung to have a special liking for this gadget, and couldn't help laughing, especially Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao laughed the most.

Hong Jinbao touched his chin and remembered that he was injured in filming before, and he looked very emotional. "Andy Lau, I didn't expect you to solve another big problem for me. Don't worry about being injured, and you can create a real fight scene."
