Journey to the West has cheated the audience for 34 years. Do you know that the Dragon Palace was originally filmed like this?

In daily life, many people have the habit of watching TV plays. Speaking of those classic dramas, I believe many people will think of the 86th edition of Journey to the West directed by Yang Jie. This drama not only became a hit classic at that time, but also became an unforgettable memory for many people. At that time, most of the audience's attention was focused on the plot of the play, and few people would think about it. At that time, the crew with poor photography conditions achieved the effect of shooting high special effects and cool venues at low cost.

The play took six years to air? First of all, we should all know that it took six years to broadcast this drama. During this period, artists encountered numerous problems, but they all overcame them one by one. It is precisely because of their energy that this classic was made. All the characters here left a deep image in people's minds. But in retrospect, I feel that gangs are everywhere, such as the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea.

I wonder if you have the image of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea? I still remember that the Monkey King went to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea to get the anchor needle, that is, his golden cudgel, before making a scene in the Heavenly Palace. After seeing the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, did we all think it was really taken in the sea? But this is not the case. At that time, the technology was not enough for them to shoot dramas in the sea, so how did the crew create the phenomenon of Dragon Palace in the East China Sea?

Photography of underwater Dragon Palace? At that time, the photography conditions were poor, and the technology could not reach the present level, but the photography was fierce and many of them needed special effects. When the Monkey King flies in, it is typical to take pictures of the underwater Dragon Palace. Is it really built? Of course not. Yes In fact, photography at that time only used a sink to deal with this problem. In other words, it is very creative to put the sink in front of the camera and the foam in the water blows out in the water.

It perfectly shows the charm of the play. Under the previous conditions, it can be said that photography is very difficult. During my six-year photography career, I encountered many problems in the process of shooting, but the crew solved all the problems bit by bit with an open mind, which perfectly showed the charm of the play. I have to say that the director and crew at that time were still very clever. This creates a dreamlike Dragon Palace for the audience.

In fact, when filming Journey to the West at that time, because of limited funds and long cycle, many photography methods were thought up by the director and the crew together. At that time, the technology was limited, and it was not easy to present such a scene. I have to say that the staff at that time were also very independent, and with the cooperation of the artists, some shots could be taken. Do you have anything to say about it?
