Brief Introduction of Dai Yingwei's Film Broken Brocade

Although the "Cheongsam Goddess" storm made Dai Ying, a girl studying at NTU College of Literature, "Li Ya Shanda". However, she still devoted herself to the post-production of the micro-movie "Broken Brocade", which was produced, written and starred by herself. Due to the popularity of the "Cheongsam Goddess", this micro-film has also attracted everyone's attention. Just as the title of The Goddess of Cheongsam is a misunderstanding, Broken Brocade is not a cheongsam drama. Today, the reporter approached Dai Ying, and also approached this micro-film reflecting the changes of the Republic of China.

"Our film is mainly a documentary, which is the shell of the documentary, but it is actually a drama. All our live interviews and extras were arranged before, which is a relatively innovative shooting method. It's also a great attempt. Some avant-garde directors of the sixth generation in China, such as Jia, have also made such films, hoping to learn from them. Zhao believes that such an attempt is the process of communicating with these directors. " Zhao, director of "Broken Brocade" and a senior majoring in drama and film in Nanjing University College of Literature, introduced it.

Dai Ying added that this film reflects the historical background from 1936 to 1958, and tells the story of a couple of young men and women who grew up to be scholars of the Republic of China. She explained that in fact, the director imitated the documentary style of Jia's A Story of Twenty-four Cities, and also solved the scene and technical problems. Although shooting in Nantah, which has a strong atmosphere of the Republic of China, sometimes it can't stop modern objects from "breaking into" the lens. With the form of analog documentary, these modern things have been avoided.

Because it is difficult to fully show the changes of a great era, Dai Ying thought of starting with costumes to show the culture of the Republic of China in this period. Having a good understanding of traditional culture, she said: "There is a big difference between the Chinese nation and other nations, that is, paying attention to clothing, and clothing carries the road. Starting with clothing to better show culture, all levels of clothing can be accepted, and the requirements for knowledge are not high. They have an intuitive impression of clothes and roles. If the level of education is higher, they can understand the deeper meaning. "

"This work covers a lot of cultural reflections, and the audience may be narrow. It's hard to publish. Fiction is a typical Shanghai style, and microfilm is also Wu language. I can speak a little Shanghainese, and I also teach other actors to speak Shanghainese. The novel is the old Shanghainese dialect, with aesthetic differences and language differences. I'm worried that the audience will be narrow and will have a whim. The audio-visual effect of Shanghai style works will be very good, so I don't know if it will be good. I like such works as Gone with the Wind very much, and I hope to make a film that will witness an era by myself one day. I told my classmates my thoughts, and interested students were called in and set up a crew. " She said.

The members of the whole crew are students of Nanjing University. Because it is a friendship performance, the selection of actors is not easy. Dai Ying revealed that it took a long time to find an actor. At first, I searched among my friends. Later, because of this drama, it attracted many new friends who also like movies. "Many people know each other through movies, and this process is very beautiful." Dai Ying frankly enjoyed the film-making process.

Dai Ying couldn't help thanking Nantah, which provided the shooting venue, and a group of teachers and classmates who fully supported the shooting. The costume, modeling and makeup in the film are all solved by Dai Ying alone. The main "patron" of the actor's costume is Dai Ying's father, and the suit vest of "The First Hero" was borrowed by Dai Ying from his brother, and another brother lent his tailor-made dress to Dai Ying.
