How to make a movie board? Detailed process and material description
How to make a movie board? Detailed process and material description
Material, manufacturing process
Buy a piece of plexiglass (chemical name: polymethylmethacrylate), black or white, make drawings according to the layout (that is, directors and cameras), engrave a piece of self-adhesive with laser engraving (generally available in graphic stores), stick the engraved self-adhesive on plexiglass and tear off the part of the word, Then apply organic solvents such as acetone or chloroform (the solvent will corrode the surface not pasted with self-adhesive). After a while, wash it in clean water, dry it and apply paint of the opposite color. After solidification, tear off the self-adhesive, and the part of the words will be corroded. In this way, the words on it will be more beautiful and similar to industrial products. The key is to master the time of solvent corrosion.
Recording board (slate)
The upper edge of the small wooden board with chalk writing the number of scenes, mirror times, director, film title, film company and other information is also attached with a shooting plate, which is painted with black and white stripes. One end can be opened and closed, and a clear sound can be shot, so that the sound and painting can be carried out simultaneously during editing.
This rectangular striped board is called "scene recording board" and its English name is SLA te. It uses chalk to write information such as scene number, mirror number, director, film title and film company. There is a clapboard attached to the upper edge. One end can be opened and closed to make a crisp sound. The main function of the recording board is as a mark for shooting each section of film, which is convenient for identification during later editing.
As we know, the film is composed of many shots. Each film generally has hundreds or even thousands of shots. The scene and content in the film are very complex. When filming, it is impossible to shoot according to the sequence of the plot, but according to the scene. For example, shoot the location play first, and then the play in the studio, or the play in summer, and then the play in winter. Even if it is the same play in winter, some plots take place in the front of the story, and some plots take place in the back. In order to ensure the quality, some shots have to be taken several times. I worked hard for several months and brought back a lot of film. How can I put it together into a complete film? If there is no obvious mark on the film, it will bring great trouble to the later editing work.
Filmmakers have found a good way in long-term practice. They use a small board with black-and-white stripes. The board briefly says the relevant contents of the film to be shot below. Before shooting each shot, take this "board" as the mark of the shot. This step is called "clapping" or "clapping" in the jargon of the film industry. In this way, there is a scene board lens at the beginning of each film. During post production, as soon as the staff see this mark, they will know which film, scene and lens this film is, which is easy to identify. In addition, clothing, makeup, props and other staff can also use this to avoid the defects in the details of the shots taken at different times, so as to avoid making mistakes.
Since the function of the field note board is to make marks, why knock it "pa"? This is because movies have not only images, but also sound. If the characters in a film have different voices and mouth shapes when talking, they will feel very uncomfortable when watching the film. When making a film, the recording board is lifted and the wooden strip on the recording board is "snapped" together to make a clear sound. The photographer will shoot the knocking sound and the recording lens at the same time. This sound will become the synchronization mark of later recording, which can enable the editors to determine the accurate audio-visual positioning.
Because of the close relationship between the recording board and the film work, it has been regarded as the symbol and symbol of the film industry for a long time. The Chinese film museum built to commemorate the centenary of Chinese film is like a huge recording board. In 1996, France issued a commemorative stamp for the 50th anniversary of Cannes International Film Festival (with the attached picture), on which there is this scene board.

How to make your own movies
How to make your own movies
What software do you need to burn yourself into a CD?
Can you be more accurate and more detailed~~ Thank you
I'm addicted to making movies recently (to be exact, making DV). The following are all my operation steps. I hope I can give you some help.
1: Collect video materials. Mainly some digital data, mainly video, and some pictures, music, etc.
2: Use Windows Movie Maker for video editing, processing and processing. The software is easy to learn and has many functions, and the operation is relatively simple. It's my favorite.
3: If you want to add dubbing to your movie, you can use MP3 audio recorder to record. Then add it when using movie maker.
4: After the movie is made, if you think it is too big, you can use winrar for compression.
5: If you want to transfer movies to the Internet, you usually need to convert the format to WMV format. Winavi video converter can be used for format conversion, which is very convenient.
The above software can be found in Web thunder. Have a nice day.

Production methods of digital films(MOVIES)
Production methods of digital films(MOVIES)
It has three production methods: first, computer generation; Second, shoot with high-definition digital camera; Third, after shooting with a film camera, it is digitized into the computer hard disk.
From the effects of these three shooting methods, because the resolution and color reduction of the film are far from what digital films can catch up with (before 2009). This is related to different imaging principles. Silver halide film is based on natural photosensitive imaging, and its particle fineness is much greater than the manually designed photoelectric pixels of CCD. With the continuous improvement of computer technology, the resolution technical index of high-definition digital camera will gradually approach or even reach the level of film camera, but in terms of color reduction, High definition digital cameras still cannot reach film cameras.
Therefore, for a long time in the future, the best cinema level digital film production method is still film shooting in the early stage. After film development and printing, it is transformed into digital signal for post editing and processing, and then transformed into digital video technology projection. Since the image quality of the material shooting in the early stage has been determined, the later stage is converted to digital projection. The color and details of silver halide are accurately positioned by digital technology. Its projection effect is far better than that of film projector, avoiding the shortcomings of film flicker, blur and so on.
The "digital version" of cinema blockbusters is the successful practice of the above technology.
In addition, according to the research results of Alai digital technology research laboratory, a traditional famous film camera brand in Germany, in 2009, when they infinitely expand the CCD pixels of the digital camera (8K), the sharpness of the image reaches amazing fineness under the most sophisticated conditions in the laboratory, and even human pores and fluff can be seen clearly, but, In terms of color restoration and saturation, there is still a big gap between digital camera and film camera, and digital technology can hardly achieve the sensitivity of film to color. Because the color of digital technology depends on the color types of artificial simulation. For example, if the color at a certain point in the subject is not available in the CCD coupling circuit, the CCD can only find the closest one to replace it. Once this situation increases, the degree of color restoration will be greatly reduced.
In addition, digital cameras are still weak in light tolerance. Under the same conditions, the film camera only needs to turn on one light or even no light, but the digital camera needs two or more lights to make up for the sensitivity problem of CCD. In terms of contrast, the detail reduction of digital technology is greatly reduced. When the bright and dark parts of the subject are relatively strong, There will be serious problems in the capture and "tolerance" of details by digital technology. That is, when we watch digitally shot films, we will find that when the picture light and dark pair is strong, the details of the dark part of digital technology films will be few, or even black, but film films can show very subtle details and color contrast.
The person in charge of the laboratory finally concluded: "under the current conditions, from the perspective of film art, there is still no sufficient reason for digital technology to completely replace film technology. We can't see the decisive advantage of digital technology."
Therefore, from the perspective of technology, the prospect of digital technology is closer to television art than film. Today, 30 years after digital technology came out, the mainstream of film shooting in the world is still film camera, which can probably explain the problem. The biggest advantage of digital technology lies in the cost and the preservation effect of the master tape. Under the same conditions, the preservation of works by Celluloid film can only be within 50 years or even 30 years. Because silver halide has a certain volatility, in terms of time, the digital technology of hard disk is almost lossless.

The whole production process for a producer to make a film(MOVIES)!!
The whole production process for a producer to make a film(MOVIES)!!
Among today's commercial films, American commercial films are the most successful. Films in contemporary countries have more or less a commercial atmosphere
The American film production process is as follows:
1. Choose the script. This is the most important. Generally, the producer chooses the script, but there is no lack of directors to choose the script. However, after selecting a good script, the director must persuade the company and the producer to invest in it. However, in current films, the director has no right to adapt the script, If he wants to change the script before shooting, he must get the approval of the company's upper board of directors
2. Capital. Every film can't do without strong capital. If a film like "strong war world" exceeds 200 million US dollars, you have to find a powerful company to invest in the film
3. Choose directors and actors. There is no saying that Chinese films will choose directors. In a film, the director is in charge, which means that they should be responsible not only for the quality of the film, but also for other aspects of the set. In international film production, the director only needs to be responsible for the task of film shooting. In international film production, the script chooses the director, Instead of directing the script, producers should take the task of selecting actors in the preparation of the film, which is done by the deputy directors in Chinese mainland.
4. In a successful film, we should not only have a great script, a good plot and a good director. The most important thing is to have the participation of big stars. Stars are the shining focus of the film and the guarantee of the box office
5. Set up a film crew to shoot
6. Film editing. In American commercial films, directors do not have the right to cut. They are cut by production companies, but if they are first-line directors, it is different
7. Distributors. In commercial films, distributors and producers are not the same. Distributors obtain distribution rights through competition. The quality of a film can also be expressed by watching distributors
8. Issue posters and advertising. Take "strong war world" for example, the advertising and publicity posters of the film were released as early as four months before the film was released
9. International distribution of films, distribution of film dubbing rights and editing rights
10. Participate in the film festival

How to make movie special effects
How to make movie special effects
Hello, if there are dragons, birds and fire, use three-dimensional animation software such as Maya. If there are effects such as light wave, internal skill and knife light and sword shadow, use the post synthesis software after effects.
Let me tell you about the general production process. Take the unique skill "Eighteen dragon subduing palms" as an example:
1. Arrange actors to make relevant actions during shooting to get the required materials;
2. Try to import the photographed materials into the computer hard disk and prepare for production;
3. Study with the special effects director or art director to explore what effect is more appropriate for each action, and get the production scheme. For example, when his arm draws a circle, a golden dragon appears where his palm slides;
4. After obtaining the production scheme, analyze which part of the whole effect is done with 3D software and which part is done with post synthesis software;
5. Pour the photographed action materials into the 3D software or later software respectively, add corresponding effects according to the actors' actions, and then render and output the completed effects;
6. Finally, in the synthesis software, pour the shooting materials and special effects materials respectively, and combine the two to complete the internal skills and special effects we see in the film or TV!
If you are satisfied with my answer, please accept it. Film and television special effects is a highly professional work, but it is not difficult to get started. There are many related tutorials on the Internet. If you are interested, you can find it. I wish you happy watching and learning.

A website, including front desk and background.
Front desk, control display part. HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc.
In the background, write to the server in a dynamic language. Used to realize various functions of the website. For example, the website can do voting function. Record how many votes were cast.
PHP, asp.net, JSP and other languages can be used in the background. Just choose one of them.
You have learned the things of the front desk. You can only do a simple static website. If you want to make a website with complex functions, you have to learn the background. It is suggested to learn PHP as the background. Because it's used the most.

How are stereoscopic films(MOVIES) made?
How are stereoscopic films(MOVIES) made?
Specific production methods, such as how to collect images, how to synthesize them, and how to put them out? Thank you!!
The principle of stereoscopic film takes the right and left eye shadows separately, and puts them on the screen respectively. When shooting, it is also shot on two films. During projection, the images on these two films are placed on the screen at the same time. This ensures that the images projected on the screen are left and right eyes, but you can't see clearly without glasses, so the key is on glasses. Put on the glasses and restore the two images to the normal left and right eyes. What you see through your brain is three-dimensional.
There are many kinds of three-dimensional films. There are complementary colors, which are formed by using the different colors accepted by the human eye for light. The other is the partial correction method. The principle of the polarized light method is to separate people's left and right eyes by using the transmission of light waves. One picture is the picture of the left eye and the other is the picture of the right eye. Put the images of the left and right eyes on the picture at the same time. When you put on the polarized light glasses, they will appear together. At this time, what you see is a three-dimensional thing. However, it is useless for people with one eye to watch three-dimensional movies because one eye cannot form a three-dimensional effect. Others have eye diseases and can not form a three-dimensional effect. When watching three-dimensional films, some people feel very good-looking and some people feel dizzy, which is related to the physiological conditions of each audience's eyes.
The invention relates to a method for making a digital ring screen three-dimensional film, which is based on a three-dimensional animation production system and establishes a three-dimensional animation system defined by M × For the cylindrical surface composed of N narrow strips, for each frame of the film to be made, the three-dimensional scene corresponding to each narrow strip is rendered through two camera models, and two narrow strip images are output; 2 of each frame × M narrow bar images are spliced into a sub screen image in sequence; Then deformation correction and seamless splicing are carried out to make an image file. Using the ring screen stereo parallax model and three-dimensional animation technology, the complete stereo image can be projected on the 180 ~ 360 degree cylindrical screen. The picture is continuous and realistic, the dynamic effect is magical and novel, and can produce great shock.

Who can introduce the film(MOVIES) making process to me!!!
Who can introduce the film(MOVIES) making process to me!!!
Pre production - including script, role assignment, budget and other preparatory works - film or video production, audio recording and post production - sorting out audio-visual media resources (i.e. "materials"); Create visual effects, subtitles and graphics, edit works and distribute them
Film is super daily, pursuing the "spectacle" of audio-visual, the "complexity" of narrative and the "strangeness" of limited aesthetic experience.
From the early shooting stage, film and television production requires a lot of preparatory work and the support of plans, scenes, funds and equipment. It is very important to choose a script in the preliminary production. Choosing a good script is often half the success, which is sometimes related to a director's olfactory sensitivity. Select a good script, and then deeply process it to make it more suitable for moving to the screen and express it by means of film. Secondly, it is also very important to choose good actors, Firstly, the temperament of the actor should be close to the role to be played. Secondly, the actor's own understanding and grasp of the script and role. An excellent actor lies in his ability to vividly interpret the most ordinary and insignificant role. In terms of budget, the main consideration is the cost of scene selection and the remuneration of actors. For example, there is a trend in the so-called blockbusters in recent years, that is, large production and large cost. In addition to the pre production costs of scenes and actors, we should also consider the cost of post editing. For example, the post production editing of hero is not in China, Of course, this requires large investment. The budget must be formulated according to its own financial resources.
The shooting techniques of film and television adopt "push, pull, shake, move, pitch, tilt, follow and chase", which can almost be used mutually. The shooting of film film uses a camera, which is more complex and requires a lot of seats. More mobile lenses are used, and the film is shown by a projector. Moreover, synchronous live broadcasting cannot be realized, and the shooting of electronic images uses cameras and linear scanning. The electronic image is decomposed into minimum pixels, and the light spot signal is picked up by electron beam and sent to the transmitting end through a single channel. The light and color signals captured by the camera can be directly transmitted to the broadcasting system of the TV station, that is, the live broadcast can be realized. It can also be recorded on tape through video recorder for post editing and creation.
In terms of production principle, film and television is a process of reproducing reality, shooting pictures through machines, and then restoring pictures through machines and equipment, so that we can see live pictures from them. The principle and process of action decomposition, recording and playback are the common basis of film and television dynamic reproduction.
In terms of post production editing, it is necessary to develop negatives, print samples, edit samples, set the bottom of the picture, print correction copies, print standard copies and other production processes. Film copies are the final products of film art and the media for film creators to convey information to the audience. The film processing and printing process are also the basic processes in the printing process. Post production mainly refers to the editing of samples, sound painting synthesis and other processes. Film and television is an art that needs to save essence and coarse. Unnecessary things that affect the content are edited. In addition, in order to better cooperate with the picture, mixing and dubbing are carried out. Special effects processing and so on, these are the homework that film and television must do.

How to dub a movie?
How to dub a movie?
How to dub a movie?
Simply remove the audio. There are many such tools. Just check it, and then dub the video with a microphone.
Complex, first extract the audio (eliminate the human voice with Audio Tools), dub the audio with a microphone, and then import it into the video, or import an audio by yourself.
It's hard to be clear. I just matched it in English class on site. Of course, I've seen other people who have done a good job in dubbing. It's good, but there's no background music, only their voices.
If time permits, I suggest you use Adobe Premiere, which is more professional. There is also "vivid". This function is more comprehensive. I haven't used this.

I want to know the detailed process of making a film(MOVIES)
I want to know the detailed process of making a film(MOVIES)
How many procedures does the birth of a film go through??
Producer: generally, they are responsible for the market research in the early stage of the film, see whether the film market of similar films has prospects (such as box office, popularity, possibility of sequels, etc.), and determine whether it is worth producing the film through investigation. If the answer is yes, they will find the film group they belong to, invest in producers and relevant personnel, and start selecting directors, scripts, actors, sponsors, etc.
Producer: the task is basically the same as that of the producer. He is responsible for the "catalysis" of the whole film, urging everyone to finish the film quickly, but also ensuring the quality. At the same time, he is also the "manager" in the process of shooting the film, responsible for supervising the whole film production process to ensure that everyone does not "cheat and play tricks" and waste the money of investors, which is similar to the role of engineering supervisor.
Consultant: if it is a film with historical themes or other professional themes, in order to make the film more convincing or credible and provide necessary guidance and help, the producer will invite authoritative persons as film consultants.
Director: be responsible for the characters engraved in the script, and use various shooting resources (props, venues, actors, etc.) to deduce the script, film and copy it.
Deputy director: both director and producer. He is the right hand of the director.
Producer: mainly for the script, to maintain the original appearance of the script and give advice to the director's shooting work.
Actor: interpret the content of the script according to the requirements of the director and the script.
Field Affairs (Drama Affairs): be responsible for providing necessary items and convenience measures for shooting films, such as preparing props, selecting scenes, maintaining studio order, doing well in logistics services, etc.
Set Artist: responsible for arranging the set according to the script and the director's requirements.
Lighting: in order to achieve the artistic effect of the film, the lighting effect of the set shall be arranged according to the requirements of the script and the director.
Stylist: according to the script and the director's requirements, make shapes for the actors in the film.
Makeup Artist: "heavy makeup and light makeup are always appropriate". Makeup artists also need to make up actors according to the script and director's requirements, and also consider the modeling requirements.
Stunt personnel: according to the content of the script, they can add wonderful scenes to the film, but they must use professionals to perform. Stunt personnel can't do without.
Post processing: after the closing of the film as a whole, after seeing the master film, the director and producer feel that some places need to be processed by scientific and technological means to achieve the artistic effect of the film. If necessary, some scenes may be remade. There are music, dubbing, subtitles, special effects, etc. There will be composers, dubbing actors, special effects personnel, etc.
Composition: to arrange appropriate music for a film. There will also be bands, conductors, singers and other personnel.
Editing: because there will inevitably be a lot of repeated or redundant scenes in the shooting process, in order to make the overall effect of the film natural, harmonious and smooth, and take into account the style requirements of the director and the script, the editor needs to cut off the unnecessary scenes in the whole film.
Film copy: after the master film processing is completed, the producer will find a professional film copy company to copy shell films and transport them to local film markets for listing or release.
The production of a film condenses a lot of hard work and sweat of the film staff. All the people who make great efforts to make the film successful are those who wholeheartedly want to contribute good works to the broad masses of the people. They are great and selfless. If someone deliberately makes a film "plotting against historical facts", he is the scum of society and the enemy of the people!

This is the most important. Generally, the producer chooses the script, but there is no lack of directors to choose the script.

If he wants to change the script before shooting, he must be approved by the upper board of directors of the company
capital
The cost of a film not only includes the expenses of director, screenwriter, camera, actor, scene, shooting, later stage, accommodation, etc., but also includes the expenses of marketing and publicity. Usually, the marketing and publicity expenses are equal to the shooting expenses or 1 / 2 of the shooting expenses. According to different concepts and requirements, each film can be divided into low-cost films, medium-sized films and large-scale films. The cost of low-cost films is basically less than 10 million yuan, the cost of medium-sized films is basically about 10-80 million yuan, and the cost of large-scale films is more than 80 million yuan [2].
33 days of lovelorn (about 9 million yuan, excluding publicity expenses) [3], the representative work of domestic medium-sized films, the representative work of people in distress (about 30-40 million yuan, excluding publicity expenses) [4], and the representative work of Hollywood large-scale films, avatar (about 600 million dollars, excluding publicity expenses) [5].
Choose director and actor
Chinese films will not choose directors. In a film, the director is in charge, which means that they should be responsible not only for the quality of the film, but also for other aspects of the set. In international film production, the director only needs to be responsible for the task of film shooting. In International Film production, the script chooses the director, Instead of directing the script, producers should take the task of selecting actors in the preparation of the film, which is done by the deputy directors in mainland China.
Star lineup
In a successful film, we should not only have a great script, a good plot and a good director. The most important thing is to have the participation of big stars. Stars are the shining focus of the film and the guarantee of the box office
Set up a crew
The photography group includes: scene notes, make-up, props, lighting, art, post guidance and splicing with the group.
film cutting
In American commercial films, directors do not have the right to cut. They are cut by production companies, but if they are first-line directors, it is different
publisher
In commercial films, distributors and producers are not the same. Distributors obtain distribution rights through competition. The quality of a film can also be expressed by watching distributors

How are movies and TV made?
How are movies and TV made?
When every late novice gets started, the most common question is, what software should I learn? Basically, the reason for entering the pit is that one day, at a certain place, I saw the special effect of breaking a cow to fry, and then I went deep into the mud and couldn't extricate myself. Even after countless nights, I tossed and turned, couldn't sleep at night, cried and screamed, and questioned whether my mind was squeezed by the door at that time. If you see here, you finally have a thorough understanding and are determined to cherish life and stay away from the later stage. Then click the small in the upper left corner, tomorrow will be better. If you are determined, stick to the end and don't die until you see the Yellow River, keep reading!
First of all, you should position yourself well and determine whether you are a editor or a special effects synthesizer. Determining a good direction is very important for your future study. However, both editors and special effects composers have certain requirements for aesthetics, so starting from the most basic part, the essential software is Photoshop.
This is a professional image processing and drawing software developed by adobe. It can provide professional image editing and processing, and use its extensive editing and drawing tools to edit pictures more effectively. The function is quite powerful. You can repair pictures (legendary beauty) and make posters, logos and moving pictures. The support for various filters enables users to easily create various fantasy effects.
To really get started to video production, PS is obviously not enough. When PS has a certain foundation, you can learn editing software such as premiere. There are many video editing software, which are basic and easy to learn. These are relatively easy to use, as well as the existing basic special effect templates. However, professional software is still commonly used, such as PR, EDIUS, final cut pro, etc., with many functions and good results. This is also an important distinction between professional and non professional( Exclude those great gods who are great no matter what software they use (HA)
If you want to make those cool special effects yourself, you must start a special effect synthesis software. After effects CS... (many versions, CS6 or above is recommended). Some time ago, the controversial quantum invisibility cloak came from matting with key. Don't go into detail about this function? In addition, this software is also developed by adobe. It is the same company as PS and PR and has excellent compatibility with each other. Now most TV columns are basically inseparable from its shadow.
Another auxiliary software is also indispensable, that is, audio software. In case of noise interference during early shooting, it can reduce noise and edit the audio effect if it is not serious. The most commonly used audio software is au
However, Xiaobian still prefers to use Nuendo, which may be related to personal habits. In a word, no matter which software is used, as long as it is easy to use.
Finally, if you have strong perseverance and are unwilling to the current situation, you have a strong love for the later stage. Then learn another 3D software! 3D or Maya are optional objects, but Xiaobian personally recommends C4d. Literally, it is a 4D film. Using it as a model and map can confuse the false with the real. In recent years, the momentum is very strong. It should be said that it is a little simpler than Maya.
design sketch
After mastering these software, you can basically be among the great gods. Of course, mastering it is not an overnight thing, but also needs to be practiced repeatedly. Always learn from the advantages of others, and you will gradually be promoted. In addition, if you want to focus on editing, the application of a color matching software is also very important. Some pictures have poor texture before they are processed. This is what some people often say that there is no sense of film. If you understand color matching, this problem may be improved. Leonardo da Vinci is definitely the best choice for color matching software. However, certain color knowledge is also necessary, which goes back to what we called aesthetic requirements at the beginning.
Of course, the software is only an aid, and the later staff should also have an open and innovative thinking. To put it bluntly, they should have a big brain hole, so people who are too regular should carefully consider whether they are suitable for this occupation! So now, are you ready to step into the ocean of suffering?

It's easy to be an online movie website.
It's easy to be an online movie website.
1、 Buy a domain name of about 50RMB.
2、 Rent a space of about 100RMB.
3、 Download the video program and install it.
4、 Looking for film and television resource collection.
5、 Set up questions related to your movie website, such as SEO, etc.
6、 Promotion.
7、 Security and website maintenance.
The above is just the cost of the new station. It's not high. The money spent a year is about 200 RMB.
It's almost unnecessary to have high program technology for a movie website, but you should know a little program technology to facilitate local micro changes. Those with high technical level can spend some money on templates or find someone to modify them. As long as there are no bugs or problems, you basically don't need to spend money on programs. However, the maintenance and operation costs of film websites will gradually increase in the middle and later stage, and the test is the problem of capital and operation.
Although the film website has fast traffic, it is also extremely difficult to promote and publicize. If you don't understand SEO and promotion, it is recommended not to do film websites. It is conservatively estimated that there are hundreds of thousands of domestic film websites, but there are a few who really make money. Making hundreds of yuan a month is not called making, but begging.

How are movie subtitles made?
How are movie subtitles made?
Method 1 of adding Subtitles: use the subtitle function of Windows media play classic (storm video). Windows media play classic (hereinafter referred to as MPC) is the most popular playback software at present. It can support all streaming media formats and play very smoothly. In addition, it has a special function, which is the function of loading subtitles we want to talk about here. After running the software, you need to make some settings for the software to enable the subtitle loading function. Open the "view" menu, select "options" in the dish, click "playback" in the left list in the task window, expand the "playback" list, and then click "output" under the list. We need to make some settings for several options on the right side of the interface. First, select "VMR 7 (no conversion) in the" DirectShow video "option, and then select" DirectX 7 "in the" realmedia video "and" quick time video "options respectively. As can be seen from the figure, the "DirectX 9" option in the figure is gray and not optional, because the author's graphics card does not support DirectX 9. In addition, click "subtitle" in the "options" window to adjust the font, color, size and position of subtitle text. After setting, click "OK" to complete the setting. At this time, the "subtitle" column under the "play" menu is available, indicating that the software has been set. Next, open the movie to add subtitles, select "load subtitles" in the "file" menu of MPC, load the subtitle file of the movie, and you can see the Chinese subtitles in the movie. As for subtitle files, you can download them from the website dedicated to subtitle download. The second method of adding subtitles is to use SMIL to combine RM and RM files to load subtitles, because there is no software that can directly add subtitles to RM files. The purpose of using SMIL here is to organize RM and RM files to load subtitles. The so-called "SMIL", namely "Synchronous Multimedia Integration Language", is a markup language similar to HTML. It can play video, audio, pictures, flash and other media formats in one window. The operation method we use here is to first convert the subtitle file of SRT into RT file, generate a smil file, then run the SMIL file to play the movie, and load the subtitle file into the movie. First of all, we need to convert the SRT file into RT file. What we need to use here is a web page program. This is a program inadvertently found by the author on the Internet. It is written by an enthusiastic netizen. At present, it only supports web page operation. First enter in the address bar, and then the execution interface of the web program will be opened. Fill in the attribute of RM movie file in the program interface. "RM file name" must be filled in as the file name of RM movie file without. RM extension; The time length is the time of the movie, and its input format is: HH: mm: SS; For the pixel values of width and height, open the "file" menu in RealOne player, select "clip properties" → "clip source", and find the "dimensions" item in the pop-up "media browser" window, where is the width × High value. Then paste the SRT subtitle file into the box below; Next, set the size and color of the text in the generated. RT subtitle. If there are multiple lines of subtitles in the middle, please set the "subtitle occupation height" to a larger value. Finally, press the "generate" button to save the contents in the RT file column and the SMIL file column as text files respectively. The file name is the same as the RM file, and the extensions are. RT and. SMIL respectively. Finally, put them in the same directory as the RM file, and click the. SMIL file to play. In addition, the player should preferably be a version after RealOne[ Subcreator is a DivX film plug-in subtitle production software. You can use it to add subtitles to the film in hand. And subcreator supports double bytes very well. It is a good tool for Chinese people to make DivX subtitles. The user interface of the software is quite simple and intuitive. The upper part is the film playing area and the lower part is the subtitle editing area. You can input subtitles while watching the movie. It supports saving to the most common SSB and SRT subtitle file formats. Subcreator software download address: Click to download virtualdubmod is a subtitle synthesis software, a powerful avi tool integrating editing, acquisition, conversion and other functions. After subtitle production, download and installation, after the main interface appears, you first need to set the initial environment. Click "options" to set various settings. In particular, you can set the residence time of subtitles in "general settings", which can be set according to your own preferences. After setting, you can start making subtitles. Click "movie / open" to select the movie you want to make subtitles, and click the timeline production button to make the timeline. Repeat this until the end of the film, your subtitle is finished, and the next work is only to output the subtitle file. Press F9 or click "file / export" to select four different subtitle file formats. Generally, it is recommended to select the first "SSA format", which is commonly used. Here you can set various attributes of subtitles, select "convert / save to file", and save the subtitle file with a name. In this way, your subtitle is finally completed, and the remaining task is to integrate this subtitle into the film. After the subtitle synthesis software is downloaded and installed, the first run may prompt you that you cannot find the "vobsub. DLL" file. This is because the video plug-in "vobsub" is not installed. It can be solved after online download and installation. In order to make the movie better and avoid any problems in the use process, it is recommended to install all kinds of video decoders (ffdshow, divx5.03, XviD, wmpcode, etc.). If you want to load your own subtitles into the movie, you must also download a plug-in "textsub. VDF". Run virtualdubmod and then synthesize subtitles for our films. Click "file" to load the films you want to make, click "video / filter" to select "add / load", and then select the downloaded filter plug-in "textsub.vdf" (in fact, this plug-in can be put into the "plugins" folder under the installation directory, so it doesn't have to be loaded every time!), Double click "textsub 2.23" to enter the option of loading subtitles, open the subtitle file you have made, and click the style "styles" to make various settings for the displayed font. After all settings are set, click "OK" to return. The rest can suppress the movie as long as the video parameters and audio parameters are set. Pressing is simple. Press F7 or open "file / save as AVI". In particular, it is generally recommended to select "DivX Pro 5 codec" or "XviD MPEG-4 codec" for video. The image quality is good. The compression rate can be selected for audio according to needs, but don't forget to set audio parameters. It takes a lot of time to suppress the film and has high requirements for the computer. It is recommended to turn off other programs when suppressing the film.

How long is the production cycle of a film(MOVIES)?
How long is the production cycle of a film(MOVIES)?
First of all, you need a script to start up. After you have a script, you need the approval of the film bureau to start up - unless you play DV upload, you must have it as long as you enter the official channel. With the approval, start to prepare for shooting, involving team construction, actor selection, scene selection, scene setting, etc; Generally at the same time. The crew starts shooting after its establishment. There should be a start-up ceremony and some incense. The shooting process can be long or short, such as field platoon, which is finished in more than 20 days, or 2046, which is shot for four years, mainly depending on the budget, script, scene rental time and actor schedule. After shooting, the film cutting is generally divided into rough cutting and fine cutting. Rough cutting is to roughly cut the story so that the fine cutting people can understand the story without reading the script. Generally, at this time, the film is often as long as several hours, and all relevant plot pictures are in it. Rough cutting generally takes a short time of 1 or 2 days. Then comes the fine cutting, which takes a long time, often several months. After cutting the film, it will be handed over to the later stage (some crew will mix it together at the later stage of film cutting). In the later stage, color matching, special effects and sound effects will be started. At this time, see the special effects requirements. If it's like star wars and the Lord of the rings, it needs good hardware and multi person cooperation to complete it quickly and well. If it's the popular "ancient youth fantasy idol drama" on TV, it's OK to fly around and watch the steel wire carefully. Just a few machines and a few people. After the post production, the film Bureau will review the film. If the film review is successful, it will start to release and arrange the schedule. If the release period is successfully arranged, it will start publicity. The crew will rush everywhere, and the print TV media will call them to interview. If the film review fails, go back to the fine cutting step and start again.
Sometimes the production cycle is not so simple. I think I can finish it year by year. Even if everything is counted, there is still an unknown number in the film Bureau. You don't know whether the whole film is passed or modified or simply let you remake it. If it is passed, you must run for distribution after obtaining the screening certificate. What cinema will release your film at what schedule.
The shortest record is half a year, and the longest record is indefinite

The whole process of making a film(movies)?
The whole process of making a film(movies)?
From the early shooting stage, film and television production requires a lot of preparatory work and the support of plans, scenes, funds and equipment. It is very important to choose a script in the preliminary production. Choosing a good script is often half the success, which is sometimes related to a director's olfactory sensitivity. Select a good script, and then deeply process it to make it more suitable for moving to the screen and express it by means of film. Secondly, it is also very important to choose good actors, Firstly, the temperament of the actor should be close to the role to be played. Secondly, the actor's own understanding and grasp of the script and role. An excellent actor lies in his ability to vividly interpret the most ordinary and insignificant role. In terms of budget, the main consideration is the cost of scene selection and the remuneration of actors. For example, there is a trend in the so-called blockbusters in recent years, that is, large production and large cost. In addition to the pre production costs of scenes and actors, we should also consider the cost of post editing. For example, the post production editing of hero is not in China, Of course, this requires large investment. The budget must be formulated according to its own financial resources.
The shooting techniques of film and television adopt "push, pull, shake, move, pitch, tilt, follow and chase", which can almost be used mutually. The shooting of film film uses a camera, which is more complex and requires a lot of seats. More mobile lenses are used, and the film is shown by a projector. Moreover, synchronous live broadcasting cannot be realized, and the shooting of electronic images uses cameras and linear scanning. The electronic image is decomposed into minimum pixels, and the light spot signal is picked up by electron beam and sent to the transmitting end through a single channel. The light and color signals captured by the camera can be directly transmitted to the broadcasting system of the TV station, that is, the live broadcast can be realized. It can also be recorded on tape through video recorder for post editing and creation.
In terms of production principle, film and television is a process of reproducing reality, shooting pictures through machines, and then restoring pictures through machines and equipment, so that we can see live pictures from them. The principle and process of action decomposition, recording and playback are the common basis of film and television dynamic reproduction.
In terms of post production editing, it is necessary to develop negatives, print samples, edit samples, set the bottom of the picture, print correction copies, print standard copies and other production processes. Film copies are the final products of film art and the media for film creators to convey information to the audience. The film processing and printing process are also the basic processes in the printing process. Post production mainly refers to the editing of samples, sound painting synthesis and other processes. Film and television is an art that needs to save essence and coarse. Unnecessary things that affect the content are edited. In addition, in order to better cooperate with the picture, mixing and dubbing are carried out. Special effects processing and so on, these are the homework that film and television must do.

What is the job of each post in the production of a film(MOVIES)?
That's a good question! I also want to know. Let me just say what I know.
Producer: generally, they are responsible for the market research in the early stage of the film, see whether the film market of similar films has prospects (such as box office, popularity, possibility of sequels, etc.), and determine whether it is worth producing the film through investigation. If the answer is yes, they will find the film group they belong to, invest in producers and relevant personnel, and start selecting directors, scripts, actors, sponsors, etc.
Producer: the task is basically the same as that of the producer. He is responsible for the "catalysis" of the whole film, urging everyone to finish the film quickly, but also ensuring the quality. At the same time, he is also the "manager" in the process of shooting the film, responsible for supervising the whole film production process to ensure that everyone does not "cheat and play tricks" and waste the money of investors, which is similar to the role of engineering supervisor.
Consultant: if it is a film with historical themes or other professional themes, in order to make the film more convincing or credible and provide necessary guidance and help, the producer will invite authoritative persons as film consultants.
Director: be responsible for the characters engraved in the script, and use various shooting resources (props, venues, actors, etc.) to deduce the script, film and copy it.
Deputy director: both director and producer. He is the right hand of the director.
Producer: mainly for the script, to maintain the original appearance of the script and give advice to the director's shooting work.
Actor: interpret the content of the script according to the requirements of the director and the script.
Field Affairs (Drama Affairs): be responsible for providing necessary items and convenience measures for shooting films, such as preparing props, selecting scenes, maintaining studio order, doing well in logistics services, etc.
Set Artist: responsible for arranging the set according to the script and the director's requirements.
Lighting: in order to achieve the artistic effect of the film, the lighting effect of the set shall be arranged according to the requirements of the script and the director.
Stylist: according to the script and the director's requirements, make shapes for the actors in the film.
Makeup Artist: "heavy makeup and light makeup are always appropriate". Makeup artists also need to make up actors according to the script and director's requirements, and also consider the modeling requirements.
Stunt personnel: according to the content of the script, they can add wonderful scenes to the film, but they must use professionals to perform. Stunt personnel can't do without.
Post processing: after the closing of the film as a whole, after seeing the master film, the director and producer feel that some places need to be processed by scientific and technological means to achieve the artistic effect of the film. If necessary, some scenes may be remade. There are music, dubbing, subtitles, special effects, etc. There will be composers, dubbing actors, special effects personnel, etc.
Composition: to arrange appropriate music for a film. There will also be bands, conductors, singers and other personnel.
Editing: because there will inevitably be a lot of repeated or redundant scenes in the shooting process, in order to make the overall effect of the film natural, harmonious and smooth, and take into account the style requirements of the director and the script, the editor needs to cut off the unnecessary scenes in the whole film.
Film copy: after the master film processing is completed, the producer will find a professional film copy company to copy shell films and transport them to local film markets for listing or release.
The production of a film condenses a lot of hard work and sweat of the film staff. All the people who make great efforts to make the film successful are those who wholeheartedly want to contribute good works to the broad masses of the people. They are great and selfless. If someone deliberately makes a film "plotting against historical facts", he is the scum of society and the enemy of the people!
Say too much, oh! ~
In short, it's really not easy for filmmakers. Pay tribute to them!
If there are any defects and deficiencies, we look forward to your support and supplement!

Ways to make money from movies
Ways to make money from movies
Box office
And CDs
Give you a more professional detailed analysis:
The birth of a film mainly includes three aspects: production, financing and distribution. Producers need to consider the commercial forms of these three aspects. Generally, there are four possibilities, but it should be noted that this classification is not absolute. Many films will integrate the characteristics of different categories, so the contract of each film may be an "innovation".
The first: step by step. The funds are paid in several steps. The contract stipulates that when certain conditions are met, such as the completion of the script and the selection of CASS, the funds for the next step will be paid automatically. The second kind: package trading and commodity trading. The producer or agent first combines the elements of the film, such as determining the script, main actors, shooting plan, etc., and then finds a film company to get their investment. Once the other party agrees, sign the contract, and then take the contract to find other funds, including bank loans. When the film is finished, the film company will pick up the goods (take the negative). The third kind: pre-sale or selling flowers. Before a film is shot, the distribution and projection rights of the film are sold by category. However, the money spent on selling the film is generally not cash, but promissory notes. Therefore, the producer needs to go to the bank to exchange it for cash at a certain discount. The success rate of selling flowers depends on the lineup of the production team and the market. Generally, a film can get about 60% of the production cost by pre-sale. Fourth: private fund-raising. Generally, it is only applicable to low-cost films, which are financed by producers through private channels and need to establish a limited partnership.
The amount of capital and the difficulty of financing are inversely proportional to the producer's control over the film. The higher the budget, the funds are arranged by big Hollywood factories, which often means that the producer must give up artistic rights such as the finalization of the script, the choice of CASS, and the final editing right. If the film company is responsible for the development and distribution of the project, the producer is just an employee. The true degree of independence of the so-called "independent producer" varies from person to person and from project to project. The more the producer plans and raises funds, the higher his degree of independence will be. With the increase of producers' work "ability" and functions, the importance of film companies is relatively weakened. Among the various roles assumed by film companies, the key is not production, nor financing, but distribution.
Distribution sounds simple. Most cinemas in the West are controlled by several cinemas. Isn't it that publishers call fixed customers, introduce products, and then advertise in newspapers and TV? Indeed, distribution is nothing more than a few things, but if you don't enter that circle and one of the eight film companies, you can't do these jobs at all. Publishers and screeners have always had contradictions, but their rivalry seems to be a quarrel between an old husband and wife. No one else can take the opportunity to intervene.
In the North American market, there are two ways for exhibitors to deduct a commission: one is to charge a fixed rent, and then raise a smaller proportion; The other is not to charge rent, but to raise a large proportion. In addition, the proportion of withdrawal increases with the passage of time. According to the rules of the industry, the publisher's Commission in the North American market is 30% and that in the overseas market (outside North America) is 40%. Note: the distribution Commission here does not include advertising expenses, which are calculated separately. Moreover, according to the current rules, for a commercial blockbuster, the publicity fee is scheduled at about 50% of the production fee.
So far, let's calculate a typical Hollywood blockbuster. The production cost was US $50 million, and the North American market sold us $100 million at the box office. Did it make $50 million in one fell swoop? No. First of all, the $100 million box office reported by the media did not reduce the income of exhibitors. Let's use the formula introduced earlier, that is, the publisher gets back $70 million in revenue. Then, the publisher needs to withdraw 30% of it, and the rest is $49 million. The $50 million production cost also needs to be added with $25 million (50% of $50 million) of advertising and publicity expenses. When this is calculated, it becomes $75 million expenditure minus $49 million revenue, which becomes a loss of $26 million. What about? Are you stupid?
Peripheral income is the cash cow
Hollywood does not rely on the box office to make money has long become a research topic for economists. Edward Epstein, a famous Hollywood economist in the United States, broke the management way of this art holy land in his research: today's Hollywood is no longer a "dream factory", in essence, it has become a service organization - an exchange for dreams.
Hollywood has a new way of survival. Because every family has TV, the huge home entertainment market is waving to film companies. Now, less than 2% of Americans go out to watch movies in the evening and 95% stay at home to watch TV. Disney was the first company to get the right to broadcast its film and television works on TV. By the 1960s, every studio had this card. Next, the rise of video recorders gave them a new way to make money. By the 1980s, their gains in the video market quickly exceeded the box office of cinemas.
What's more gratifying to the film companies is that the young audience they target is also a loyal audience of video games. As a result, film companies make profits from these areas. Movies have become creative props. TV programs, cartoons, videos and video games derived from them have been sold all over the world, and their revenue far exceeds the box office of cinemas. In 2005, the profit of box office revenue of film companies was less than 15% of their total revenue, but the money they made from family entertainment projects such as TV, cable TV, DVD and video accounted for 85% of their total revenue.
Nowadays, the main task of Hollywood is not to bind famous directors, movie stars and all shooting resources together to produce films, but to "save" the money earned from intellectual property rights and then distribute it to different places, including those who create, distribute and invest in intellectual property rights. Hollywood is becoming America's "Art Wall Street".
Calculation formula
Revenue = box office - exhibitor's Commission (box office) × Commission ratio) - publisher's Commission [(box office - exhibitor's Commission) × Publisher's royalty ratio] - production fee - advertising fee (production fee) × 50%)

How are animated movies made?
How are animated movies made?
Animation production is a very tedious and heavy work, with a very detailed division of labor. It is usually divided into pre production, mid production, post production, etc. Pre production also includes planning, work setting, fund raising, etc; Production includes
Split mirror, original painting, middle painting, animation, coloring, background painting, photography, dubbing, recording, etc; Post production includes editing, special effects, subtitles, synthesis, audition, etc.
Steps / methods
1. Overall design stage:
1) Script. The first step in any film production is to create a script, but the script of animation is very different from the script of feature film performed by real people. Dialogue in general films is very important for actors' performance, while complex dialogue should be avoided as much as possible in animated films. The most important thing here is to use pictures to express visual actions. The best animation is obtained through funny actions. There is no dialogue, but visual creation stimulates people's imagination.
2) Storyboard. According to the script, the director should draw a story sketch similar to a comic book (draw the script by lens) to show the actions described in the script. The storyboard is composed of several segments, each segment is composed of a series of scenes. A scene is generally limited to a certain place and a group of characters, and the scene can be divided into a series of shots regarded as picture units, so as to construct the overall structure of an animation. While drawing each sub shot, the action as its content, the time of narration, photography instructions, picture connection, etc. shall be explained accordingly. Generally, for a 30 minute animation script, if about 400 sub shots are set, about 800 pictures will be drawn - storyboard.
3) Camera watch. This is the schedule of the whole film production prepared by the director to guide the unified and coordinated work of all personnel of the animation creation collective.
2. Design and production stage:
1) Design. The design work is to determine the form and shape of background, foreground and props on the basis of storyboard, and complete the design and production of scene environment and background map. In addition, it is also necessary to carry out modeling design for characters or other characters, and draw several standard paintings from different angles of each modeling for reference by other animators.
2) Sound. In the animation production, because the action must match the music, the sound recording must be carried out before the animation production. After the recording is completed, the editors should accurately decompose the recorded sound to the position of each picture, that is, the first few seconds (or the first few pictures) start talking, how long the speech lasts, etc. Finally, the whole sound history (i.e. sound track) should be decomposed into the bar table corresponding to the sound in each picture position for the reference of animation personnel.
3. Specific creation stage:
1) Original painting creation. The original painting creation is to draw some key pictures of animation by animation designers. Usually a designer is only responsible for a fixed character or other roles.
2) Middle illustration production. The middle illustration refers to the picture between two important positions or frame drawings. Generally, it is a picture between two original paintings. The assistant animator makes a middle picture, and the other artists interpolate the connecting picture of the character's action. The interpolated continuous action painting added between the original paintings shall meet the specified action time to make it close to the natural action.
4. Shooting and production stage:
This stage is an important part of animation production. Any details on the performance screen will be produced here, which can be said to be a key step to determine the quality of animation (the other is the design of content, that is, script).

Film(movies) editing skills in film(movies) production
Film(movies) editing skills in film(movies) production
Different optical techniques and techniques are often used in the conversion of film lens in order to achieve the purpose of film editing. This paper introduces some common optical techniques of film and television editing.
1、 Cut in and cut out
This is the most commonly used shot conversion method in movies. That is, without skill, from the end of the previous shot to the beginning of the next shot, there is no gap in the middle. It is called cut.
2、 Fade out fade in
Also known as the film picture fade, fade. The picture gradually darkens and finally completely disappears. This method is called fade out or fade out. On the contrary, the picture gradually changes from dark to bright, and finally becomes completely clear. This lens is called fade in, also known as fade in.
3、 Transfer in and out
It is also a skill of lens conversion in movies. Sometimes use a clear straight line, sometimes use a wavy line to erase the picture straight, horizontally and obliquely from the edge of the picture, which is called marking out. Instead of the following picture, it is called delimitation.
4、 Out into
Also known as dissolution and dissolution, it is also a method of lens conversion in movies. While one picture gradually disappears (melts out), another picture gradually reveals (melts in). This is often used in the front and back two interrelated contents and scenes, resulting in the feeling of slow transition.
5、 Overprint
It refers to the superposition of two or even three pictures into one picture. It often shows the characters' memories, dreams, illusory imagination, magical world, etc.
6、 Other optical techniques
The focus becomes virtual.
The focus of several frames of the picture becomes virtual, and the image is gradually blurred. The speed and length of emptiness can be controlled freely, often showing scenes such as blurred vision and coma.
Freeze frame: it often means that a dynamic lens is momentarily stationary on a certain picture, and the particles on the picture appear very thick. Reverse printing: print the normal lens in the reverse order of the action.
Split picture: use a mask to divide a picture into two, three or more pictures.
Add mask: when an actor plays two roles at the same time and appears on the same picture, the mask is added on one side first, the other side is exposed first, and then the mask and exposure are changed.
