What is the later stage of film and television?

Based on the theory of visual communication design, mastering film editing equipment (linear and nonlinear equipment) and film editing skills can make film and television stunts.

Film and television media has become the most popular and influential media form at present. From the fantasy world created by Hollywood blockbusters, to the real life concerned by TV news, and then to the overwhelming TV advertisements, all have a profound impact on our lives. In the past, the production of film and television programs was the work of professionals, which seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil for the public. Over the past decade, digital technology has entered the process of film and television production in an all-round way, and computers have gradually replaced many original film and television equipment, which has played an important role in all aspects of film and television production. But until recently, film and television production has been using extremely expensive professional software and hardware, and it is difficult for non-professionals to see these devices, let alone skillfully use these tools to make their own works. With the remarkable improvement of pc performance and the continuous reduction of price, film and television production has gradually shifted from professional hardware equipment to PC platform, and professional software with higher status has gradually been transplanted to.

On the platform, prices are becoming more and more popular. At the same time, the application of film and television production has also expanded from professional film and television production to computer games, multimedia, network, family entertainment and other broader fields. Many operators in these industries and a large number of film and television lovers can now make their own film and television programs with their own computers.

Many people come into contact with the production of film and television programs, starting with three-dimensional animation. Up to now, there are many friends who know and even master 3D animation production, and there are also many books introducing this aspect. However, most people don't know about film and television post-production, and there are many related books. This kind of books generally only care about the specific use of a certain software, but not the basic process and principle of film and television post-production. It is hoped that readers will have a comprehensive understanding of the whole process of film and television post-production while understanding and mastering the use of specific software through this topic.

What is film and television post-production

Using the material obtained from actual shooting, stunt shots are made through three-dimensional animation and synthesis, and then the shots are cut together to form a complete film, and sound is made for the film. & lt/

Traditional film editing is the real editing. After the photographic master is developed, it is necessary to make a set of working proofs for editing. The editor selects the required lenses and films from a large number of samples, cuts the films with scissors, and then sticks them together with tape or glue, and then watches the editing effect on the editing table. This process of cutting and pasting should be repeated until the final effect of party constitution is achieved. Although this process looks primitive, this stitching is indeed nonlinear. The editor doesn't have to work in sequence from beginning to end, because he can cut samples from the middle, insert shots, or cut some pictures at any time without affecting the whole film. But this method is powerless for the production of many skills. Editors cannot make overlapping pictures between two shots, nor can they adjust the colors of the pictures. All these techniques can only be done in the process of development and printing. At the same time, the manual operation efficiency of scissors and paste is also very low

Traditional TV editing is done on the editing machine. An editor usually consists of a video player and a video recorder. The editor selects a suitable material through the video player, then records it on the tape in the video recorder, and then looks for the next shot. In addition, the advanced editing machine also has powerful stunt functions, which can make various overlapping pictures. You can adjust the color of the picture and make subtitles. However, because the pictures recorded on the video tape are continuous, you can't insert shots between the existing pictures, and you can't delete shots unless you re-record all the pictures after that. Therefore, this kind of editing is called linear editing, which brings many restrictions to editors. It can be seen that although the traditional editing methods have their own characteristics, they all have great limitations, which greatly reduces the creativity of editors and wastes valuable time in the complicated operation process. Computer-based digital nonlinear editing technology has greatly developed editing means. This technology records materials into a computer and uses the computer to edit them. It adopts the nonlinear mode of film editing, but it uses simple mouse and keyboard operation instead of manual operation, and the editing results can be played back immediately, so the efficiency is greatly improved. At the same time, it can not only provide all the special effects of various editors, but also provide complex special effects that editors can't do through the expansion of software and hardware. Digital nonlinear editing not only combines the advantages of traditional film editing, but also develops further, which is a great progress in film editing technology. Since 1980s, digital nonlinear editing has gradually replaced the traditional methods in foreign film production and become the standard method of film editing. In China, the use of digital nonlinear editing for film editing is still a matter of recent years, but it has developed very rapidly. At present, most directors have realized its advantages. For digital nonlinear editing, we will discuss it in detail in this chapter. With the rapid development of film and television production technology, post-production shoulders a very important responsibility: the production of stunt shots. Stunt shots are shots that cannot be obtained by direct shooting. Early film and television stunts were mostly accomplished by traditional means such as model making, trick photography and optical synthesis. , mainly in the shooting stage and the process of printing. The use of computers provides more and better means for special effects production. Many special effects that had to be done by models and photographers can be made by computers, so more special effects become post-production work.
