Spatial expression of film and television art

The main feature of film and television photography, which is different from other arts, is that there is modeling first, and artistic modeling (picture) runs through.

So how to create a three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional plane in modeling? In this respect, the pioneers of film and television photography have accumulated a lot of experiences and theories, such as how to use the characteristics of human visual physiological images to strengthen the phenomenon of line perspective and shadow perspective, how to use diagonal lines and obliquely arranged objects to extend and converge in the distance to express space, how to use the backlight illumination of multi-level scenes to form rich shadow levels to express space, and so on, and how to create by changing the structure and position of space through a unique means of film and television-sports photography. For example, in a scene in the movie Little Soldier Zhang Ai, Luo Jinbao disguised as a traitor and took his son into the yard. (In the middle of the camera, he pulls) They get under the grape tree, (in the camera) and then turn around and walk into the small iron fence. Luo Jinbao removes a bundle of grass blocking the door, enters through a door (in the camera, the door is opened to give a panoramic view), they climb the roof and then get off the ladder. In expanding space, China summed up three words in his ancient painting theory. One is "zoning", that is, using the foreground to arrange more scene levels. When choosing a scene, we should make use of doors, windows, fences and buildings as far as possible to make the foreground, so that the scenery has a progressive relationship, so that the smoke spreads among multiple scenes and the phenomenon of spatial perspective is strengthened. The second is "borrowing", that is, the choice of background, shooting indoor scenes, the background should have doors and windows to penetrate the light or see the distant scenery through it. Outside, there are distant peaks, towers, buildings and so on embedded in the background in the form of points. The third is "lead-in", that is, lines are used to extend and guide the depth of the picture. Such as roads, rivers, canals, rows of trees, telephone poles, etc. They are visually

The oblique arrangement can visually simulate the third space. If they extend diagonally to the picture and the vanishing point is in the picture, the illusion of deep third space will be formed more effectively. The realistic reproduction of space on the screen provides a credible basis for expressing the content of the plot and the activities and psychological state of the characters. For example, in the movie Citizen Kane, many depth shots are used to reproduce space. As film director Wells said, "What you see in life is also panoramic. Why can't it be like this in movies? " In the film, when Susan tries to commit suicide after another failed performance, the shape of the picture space is arranged like this. The foreground is a glass and a bottle of poison, the middle scene is Susan's face lying on the pillow, and the background is a ray of light by and under the door. We heard Susan's gasps and Kane's efforts to knock at the door. The creation of this space gives us a psychological feeling of tension and anxiety. It can be seen that the creation of picture space will produce an unusual and peculiar effect.
