This editing is led by Liang Kun and assisted by an editor called by MacDonald. Liang Kun offered to participate in the whole production process of the film for the first time.


    He wanted to learn knowledge. After chatting with Nolan and Spielberg, Liang Kun knew that if he wanted to make a better film, he must have enough control. He has to check all aspects. If there is a problem in one link, the film quality may decline.


    The first is the initial shear. Liang Kun wants to splice the shooting materials in the order of scripts and edit them into a version without visual effects, narration and music. He followed the shot. The job is very simple.


    He cut a wonderful story at the beginning, which was admired by the editor and McDonald. Like the previous film, Liang Kun''s useless clips are still few. Because he has a clear picture in his mind as a reference, he won''t shoot off balance and useless plots.


    The second is the formal editing. This step is for the director to finish cutting and modify the unsatisfactory parts of the initial cutting. The work of the picture is completed here.


    Then there is color matching, an important link. There is a routine in the color matching of Hollywood films. The dark part is dark blue, the middle tone is cyan, and the bright tone is magenta, and then the bright part and the middle tone are yellow and green through the secondary node.


    This can correct the white balance of the bright part, improve the orange saturation, enhance the contrast with the blue-green tone of the dark part, and so on. In short, enhance the overall contrast of the film. Most Hollywood assembly line assignments are almost transferred out in this way, and the audience looks comfortable.


    If the color matching is not done well, no amount of money spent on special effects can be saved.


    The color matching of Shushan biography is disaster level. It was directly released on DVD overseas, but it was not on the cinema. People who say "an insurmountable masterpiece" and "seriously underestimated" have never seen a film at all? When this thing was released, its reputation was not polarized. Everyone said it was bad.


    Liang Kun and the editor discussed that they came according to the Hollywood routine. He was surprised to find that systematic training was also helpful in color matching. If the adjustment is not good, the system will make him uncomfortable.


    With assistance, it means that Liang Kun can open and hang, make better movies, and even form his own style.


    Many directors have their own favorite colors, such as David Finch, the original director of the lost lover, likes black and yellow, and likes to emphasize the atmosphere with colors. It''s a little deliberate, but it does make the audience feel better.


    "Pacific Rim" director Gilmore del Toro has a high accomplishment in film tone. His whole tone is full of a sense of future, and even a dense sense of Steampunk, rendering the doomsday atmosphere of the film. The sequel of the film changed the director of waste wood, directly destroyed this good IP and hurt the big sweet back pot.


    Hero replaces the color change of the film submission with different clothes colors, and presents the appearance of three stories in red, white and blue. The use of rich to pouring colors has won a lot of praise abroad. It''s a pity that Lao Mou Zi went crazy later and shot everything like five Fuwa.


    Liang Kun made adjustments in some details. The memory of Jack was in black and white, only the coat was red. In this tone, Jack looks a little black. His white friend''s face is very white, symbolizing his blackening.


    When Teresa first appeared, the tone was also dark, symbolizing Zoe''s inner closure and social disorder. When she finally appeared outdoors, the light shone on her, making her blonde hair brighter and her eyes bluer, indicating a new life.


    McDonald called Spielberg after watching Liang Kun''s performance. "Steven, I think he can direct the lost lover well. He is also a genius in editing and color matching. He is very talented in all aspects."


    Spielberg smiled, "I see. What do you think of the box office prospect of this film?"


    "Certainly not worse than the last one. He is better than the last one in all aspects. I have never seen a young man who has made such rapid progress." McDonald sighed.


    "I''ll talk to him tomorrow. Thank you."


    The next day, Liang Kun went to Spielberg''s house for dinner and was deeply welcomed by his children.


    Sawyer and Sasha went to the set of escape from the secret room and had a meal at Liang Kun''s house. They were not polite to Liang Kun and suggested that he show his hands in the kitchen. Liang Kun met their requirements.


    In order to cater to Spielberg''s and his wife''s tastes, Liang Kun cooked Cantonese, Guangzhou Wenchang Chicken and two vegetarian dishes.


    Sawyer helped in the kitchen and said with a smile, "Liang, you didn''t choose a good time to shoot. You started shooting during the world cup and finished shooting the world cup. Didn''t you watch the football game?"


    "It doesn''t matter. I support the Chinese national team. I ended the world cup as early as the Asian qualifier. I didn''t miss anything," Liang Kun replied.


    To be exact, it was the group stage of the Asian qualifier that was unfortunately out. The performance of the Chinese men''s football team is so stable that it only played abnormally in 2002.


    At dinner, they talked about the movie "lost lover".


    Spielberg smiled, "Laurie praised you countless times. You really surprised us. When she was a producer, she was very serious, but she said you were more strict with actors."


    "They are talented young actors. If they are more strict, they can perform better. The key lies in the actors themselves," Liang Kun said with a smile.


    "Are you praising yourself? Everyone says you are the best actor in the crew. I''m looking forward to the release of this film and I''m willing to work with you on the lost lover. Do you have a plan for that film?"


    "I''ve taken the time to write the script, and I''m confident of playing a good hero."


    Spielberg was stunned. "When did you write the script?"


    "I took time to write it when I returned home. After writing a novel, it''s not difficult to adapt the script."


    "So, this secret room escape is for you to practice your hand. Haven''t you prepared it for long?" Spielberg was surprised by Liang Kun''s work efficiency.


    He now believes that Liang Kun is a talented actor. He can''t figure out how Liang Kun took the time to practice acting.


    McDonald said Liang Kun''s talent is better than Leonardo DiCaprio. "Little plum" needs a lot of time to figure out the role. Even so, the role played by Xiao Li still has many similarities, the same frown and the same tone of voice.


    He just stopped being handsome and transformed into a representative of the bitter enemy faction. His eyebrows were tight enough to hold coins.


    Liang Kun''s roles are more different. The characters in his two plays are completely different. The last one portrayed the sunshine boy, as if he was a shy college student. This time, he played the elite and also performed the process of blackening, with darkness hidden under his gentle appearance.


    Spielberg was curious about the extent to which Liang Kun could film the lost lover and what it would be like. Perhaps his directing ability and acting skills will soon be widely recognized.


    "I suggest you sign a contract to shoot the lost lover after the film is released. As long as the film gets a high reputation and box office, your value will rise again. Don''t worry?"


    "Of course it''s not urgent. I think we have to wait, because if we want to make a good film, the higher the budget, the better. I think the difficulty of the film is that we need to choose a big female owner with acting skills, and the film pay must not be cheap."


    Spielberg nodded. "You are very considerate."


    Liang Kun wrote, directed and acted by himself, and the film pay must have risen sharply. Because the next play is the third time he wrote, directed and acted by himself, and it is also an adaptation of his best-selling novel. If he has two consecutive films at the box office and makes money for the filmmakers, paramount must offer a big contract worthy of his worth if he wants to win over him.


    "Do you have any actresses you want to work with?" Kate Capshaw asked.


    "Charlize Theron, I''d like to recommend her for an audition. She has played many roles as a vase sweetheart before, and the characters after the devil''s head are full of energy. I think she can play the contrast before and after Amy."


    The original heroine Pei Chunhua Liang Kun did not consider it at all. She was born in 1979 and is still too young. She can play Amy well in 2014, which doesn''t mean she can play Amy well in 2007.


    Pei Chunhua''s acting skills are still very embarrassing. He has made all bad films in recent years. Her only role that impressed the audience was 007: die another day, stabbed to death by Halle Berry.


    Theron''s 177cm height matches Liang Kun, who thinks they can perform together. The only disadvantage of looking for Theron is that she is too valuable.


    Fortunately, she made a film "magic Woman Warrior" last year, which was a mess. No one asked her to film this year. Her cost performance is very low. She has never proved that she has box office appeal. She is famous for making low-cost literary and artistic films and winning the queen of the film.


    Spielberg smiled, "you have a good eye. Let''s talk about it then. Show me the script first. After the film is edited, do you still want to study in the transformers crew?"


    "Of course, I''ve missed a lot of content." Liang Kun smiled.


    The fourth step in film production is composition or selection; The fifth step is the input of special effects; The sixth step is dubbing synthesis. Liang Kun doesn''t have to stare at these things. Just understand them.


    Liang Kun won''t score the film, so the content is doomed not to need any special BGM.


    Dubbing synthesis is not only a very interesting part of the film, but also a brain opening part.


    How did Superman land? The answer was sent by the recorder pounding the suitcase and synthesized into the film. The sound made by Superman''s cloak during flight may be that the recorder waved a broken part in front of the electric fan.


    There are also many sound effects in escape from the secret room that need to be synthesized by professionals. Liang Kun and McDonald will take a look at the effects and be responsible for making decisions.


    The shooting cycle of transformers is very long. It started two weeks earlier than escape from the secret room. Up to now, it is not half.


    Liang Kun didn''t miss anything. He shot literary drama in the early stage. The relationship between male owner Sam and female owner Mikaela, Sam found his car alive, and so on. There are not many big scenes.


    He doesn''t think he can learn anything from watching Michael Bay''s film. The only impressive scene in the early stage of this film is Megan Fox opening the car hood.


    He is now going to the crew to study. The time is just right. What he wants to see is a tragic and grand scene.
