《流浪地球2》:中国科幻片的多维升级——郭帆访谈

A Multidimensional Upgrade of Chinese Sci-Fi Film:An Interview with Guo Fan,Director of The Wandering Earth 2

《流浪地球2》在叙事形态、科幻观念、视效制作等方面均比《流浪地球》有所提升。三条线索的平行推进形成了影片庞大的叙事体量,内容取舍成为创作中需要考量的问题,郭帆导演认为选项取舍的核心是情感。影片中的数字生命是开创性的科幻叙事,但来源还是与中国文化有关。庞大的视效体量成就了影片的影像奇观,其关键在于几次迭代升级的视效流程管理。相对于视效、摄影、录音等技术部门,反而导演、制片等管理部门是科幻片等中国电影工业亟须提升的短板。

The Wandering Earth 2 has improved on its predecessor in terms of narrative form,science fiction concept and visual effect production.The parallel advancement of the three clues makes the narrative volume of the film huge,causing the problem of content selection.Director Guo Fan believes that the core of choice is emotion.Digital life is a groundbreaking science fiction narrative,but the source is still related to Chinese culture.The huge volume of visual effect makes the film a spectacle of images,and the key lies in the process management of several iterations and upgrades of visual effect.In contrast to the technical departments such as visual effects,photography and sound recording,it is the management departments such as directors and production departments that urgently need to improve in the Chinese film industry such of science fiction films.
