1905 movie network news　Recently, the film, technology and future — Imagination space of science fiction movies "forum, film industrialization has once again become a key topic for filmmakers to discuss.

The industrialization of China film is imperative, and the process of finding "pen" still has a long way to go.

At this forum, many people in the industry, including director roland emmerich and director Huatao Teng, expressed their suggestions and views on the industrialization development of China films, and made suggestions for China films from the aspects of establishing standardized production chain, capital investment and talent training. They believe that China’s film industrialization is far behind the international level, and the establishment of an industrialization system is imminent, but at the same time they also expressed confidence in the future of China’s film industrialization.

Guo Fan, the director of China Film Company, once used "a pen to draw and write" as a metaphor for industrialization, while films are still in the stage of finding a pen. After The Wandering Earth’s achievements, Director Frant Gwo made a long-term review of the project and made a national survey, with the purpose of sharing the summarized embryonic form of industrialization and experiences and lessons with the industry, helping to promote the establishment of China film industrialization system and speeding up the process of finding a pen.

From all levels, it is imperative to realize the industrialization of China films, and this process requires the joint efforts of millions of filmmakers, and it is necessary to share experiences and try to innovate. Therefore, apart from self-recovery, director Frant Gwo also strongly praised other projects in the industry that adopted the industrialized mode, and he has won his praise and affirmation many times.

The trilogy of deities is directed by Wu Ershan, with Du Yang as producer and trilogy producer Barrie M. Osborne as production consultant. At present, it is in an intensive filming period. Director Frant Gwo visited the crew and appreciated the professionalism and orderliness of the film in scene construction, live shooting, racecourse management, actor training and even canteen management, indicating that the crew has demonstrated the mature industrialization characteristics of planning, order, flow and high efficiency.

Industrialization is a "healthy way of working" and also needs localization.

In the media interview, director Wu Ershan once interpreted the film industrialization as three dimensions: typed creation, scientific and systematic management and application of new technologies. It is reported that the trilogy of deities has reached the advanced technical standards. Wu Ershan said that the film has overcome extremely high technical difficulties in digital character production, a lot of fighting and magic scenes, which can be said to push the industrialization quality of China films to a newer and higher standard.

For industrialization, director Wu Ershan has his own understanding. He once vividly explained industrialization as a "healthy way of working", which pays attention to order, effectiveness, cost saving, and provides people with a calm and focused working state. Through the establishment of various management systems, everyone can play their expertise in their posts and not waste energy on trivial things. He also believes that this mode should be the normal state of film creation, and hopes to recommend this working method to all filmmakers.

It is reported that in order to establish his own working system, Wu Ershan director and producer Du Yang once led a team to the United States, New Zealand and other places to conduct extensive research, draw lessons from experience, and then integrate various domestic factors to evaluate and establish the entire crew industrialization system, striving to meet the highest international production standards and national conditions, which can be said to truly realize the localization of film industrialization production.

Industrialization also stresses the international standard of "humanization" stamped by The Lord of the Rings producers.

Du Yang, the producer, is also an important role that cannot be ignored on the road to industrialization of the trilogy of deities. She put forward the idea of "making movies scientifically". All the details are planned and rehearsed in advance, so that the industrialized operation can produce fine and accurate results. As for the localization of industrialization, Du Yang has a point of view that agrees with the director. He points out that industrialization should not copy the western routine, but combine the system, personnel composition, cultural environment and other factors of China’s film and television industry, make changes on the basis of reference, and comprehensively export the industrialization model that conforms to the national conditions. At the same time, she put forward the concept of "humanization", saying that one of the purposes of industrialization is to make the staff settle down and let them adapt to the crew and love their work. This is a manifestation of humanization, and bringing "people" into the industrialization system can not be ignored.

He put forward many professional suggestions for this film, such as ensuring the rest time of the crew, ensuring the nutrition and physical condition of the staff, post-production, publicity and distribution, and helping to establish the industrial production system of the film.
