Chapter 895 The third way of fighting
Female action scenes are a difficult problem that most directors avoid, and it is almost impossible to shoot well.
The difficulty lies in the fact that actresses are far less likely to be fiddled with than male actors in action scenes.
It is unimaginable for a qualified male actor to not include fitness or fighting in his career.
For most actresses, diet control remains their first choice for maintaining their body shape.
The majority of actresses who only film literary dramas have always been.
Even professional female stunt actors are often not as standard and powerful as non-stunt actors.
The biggest problem is that if you want the camera to look good and the picture is perfect, you cannot switch between the substitute and the actor's faces frequently.
The long-standing problems have led many movie fans to have wrong ideas. Women's figure and posture naturally decide that they cannot make good action scenes.
Of course this concept is wrong. Ning Yun's "Legend of the Night" does not need to prove that movies cannot be done, games can.
There are countless classic female characters, such as "The Angel Hunter", "Neil: The Mechanical Age", and even "Assassin's Creed" who have performed well.
Of course, the ship girl and the blood girl fighting in "Legend of the Night" are still very different from the characters in the game.
There is no shortage of a sense of blow and power for girls.
But unlike games, due to manipulation, they pursue excessive rhythm and equal pauses.
The biggest feature of the ship wolf when fighting against the blood girl is still the pursuit of real physical rules, relative strength and destruction, which is in line with the audience's intuitive experience, and no girl will fight in high heels.
Even a vampire girl with super good balance cannot wear any shoes that affects her balance in order to make her beautiful during battle.
The ship wolves have the advantage of home court, they can exert their strongest strength on the battleships, and have sailors who worship them to help fight.
The disadvantage is that these ship wolves who had just merged with the warships had severely lacked combat experience and had never even fought.
The blood girl is just the opposite. They have rich combat experience, but they are not on their side at home, and it is worrying whether they fight or evacuate.
...
Serena, who jumped from the "Meteor", did not choose "Yamato" or "Mushashi" as her opponent "as planned", but instead chose a heavy patrol close to these two most powerful battleships.
At this time, the audience was dedicated to watching the exciting battle and did not quite understand Serena's choice. It was not until she watched it repeatedly that she could figure out Serena's intentions.
For audiences who only watch battles and don’t consider so many, Serena’s choice is meaningless as long as the battle is exciting.
When fighting against cruiser wolves and sailors, Serena changed her style again, no longer the opening and rage against the Japanese Army before.
After drinking the perfect blood of "Taiyi", Serena's combat effectiveness has improved again.
The audience knows very well that Serena's combat power in "Legend of the Night" is divided into three stages. At the beginning, after drinking Wang Pingzhang's blood and drinking "Taiyi" blood.
The difference in strength in these three stages determines the difference in Serena's fighting style.
The "Sword Technique of Crushing the Spirit" when fighting Lucien is a summary of Serena's hundreds of years of battle. On the premise of exerting her personal strength, she incorporates enough inner beauty.
The battle with Goring's bodyguard werewolves is more flexible and swift, which is completely in line with the style of the blood clan.
After drinking Wang Pingzhang's blood, the violent battle with the Japanese army made the audience excited.
But in-depth analysis, it is not difficult to find that Serena has actually lost her blood clan style. The reason is easy to speculate that her strength has increased too much and she is not able to control it all at once.
A violent and powerful way of fighting is to attack the enemy's weaknesses with one's own strengths.
After drinking "Taiyi" blood, Serena's fighting style changed again, but this change made many viewers confused.
Her fighting style with sailors, especially with the beautiful ship wolf on the re-scheduled tour, puzzled many viewers.
It’s not that it’s not good-looking or exciting, but that it’s that it’s not understandable.
It is neither the earliest speed, flexibility, aesthetic charm, nor can it control the violent and openness of power.
Simple moves can achieve incredible results every time.
The sailor is not her opponent, and the ship wolf who can patrol it doesn't seem much stronger.
Even though the girl looks very powerful, moves quickly and fiercely, she has more combat experience than other shipwolves.
If it weren't for teleportation, it would be seriously injured by Serena's long sword once.
Even so, she didn't hold on for long.
When Serena boarded another cruiser and fought with other wolves again, some Chinese spectators suddenly realized.
Serena's brand new fighting style has a hint of "Tao" or "Tao rhyme".
No matter how fast your opponent is or how gorgeous the moves are, Serena can always defeat him in the easiest way.
When the audience is inexplicably rationally, they feel very comfortable intuitively.
In analogy, the "one move to defeat the enemy" that was once very popular in action movies is somewhat similar to Serena's battle at this moment.
The difference is that those protagonists in the movie "strike the enemy with one move" are all mixed fish, and Serena defeats the enemy with one move, and some mixed fish and masters are some mixed fish and masters.
Her movements are all with the shortest distance and not fast speed, breaking the opponent's rhythm and coherence, and the timing is just right every time.
Is Tai Chi theory? Or something else?
It was not until the Blu-ray release of "Legend of Night" that a few serious viewers watched one frame after another that they discovered the secret of Serena's actions.
From the beginning, she echoed her opponent, as if she could predict it.
If the opponent's entire movements are summarized into a complicated line, Serena's movements are the shortest line that reaches the end point.
Ultimately, this is the application of mathematics.
The so-called "Daoyun" is also the feedback of mathematics in human body movements.
In fact, the shortest line, implemented by the human body, is often not the most beautiful and does not look exciting.
However, Ning Yun made Serena's movements pleasing to the eye through continuous adjustments of the camera angle and movement trajectory.
Not to mention the ordinary action scenes designed by martial arts guides, even the best action scenes with the greatest investment are far behind it.
This is the difference in fundamental concepts. Ning Yun broke through the old barriers and took a brand new path from the foundation.
Serena's battle is consistent with the "action shooting system" concept that she has shown before, but it is better than several points.
Simply put, this is neither something that an actor can shoot, nor something that a martial arts director and a director can think of, but a combination of mathematics and aesthetics.
The higher the level of combination, the better the action scene will be and the more in line with the audience's perception.
