Video recording equipment installed in multiple locations records the actors' performances for each scene specified by the director, and the footage is edited and used to produce TV programs and movies in accordance with the broadcast or screening times.

By embedding small video cameras and sound collectors in props, the inefficiencies of traditional recording methods are overcome, allowing for rapid and simplified filming of movies and TV programs with consistent performance capture.

Abstract

To provide a filming a technique that can achieve the same effect as a theatrical performance by recording the performances of all dance performers using multiple filming devices, and can eliminate the time and effort required for changing actors and performers for each scene.SOLUTION: A method includes placing a small video camera built into furniture or tools in a location designated by a monk so as not to appear unnatural to a viewer as a part of the background, taking into consideration the range of movement and number of performers, the distance from the performers, the direction and the size of the scene being filmed, setting up a sound collecting device in a similar manner or placing it in a location where it will not appear in the footage, and having the producer record the video and audio from all the filming and sound collecting devices during the time filming is taking place.SELECTED DRAWING: None

Description

[Technical Field]

[0011] The only difference is that the viewer of the photograph becomes the viewer of a moving image (film or TV), and the method involves the recording and editing of sound. [Background technology]

[0012] A high-performance compact camera / recorder like those found on smartphones, and processing technology to create a cavity that can record images inside the device. A recording disc with increased capacity. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0013] Nothing in particular. [Non-patent literature]

[0014] Nothing in particular. However, imaging techniques using multiple general imaging devices are already in use. Summary of the Invention Problem to be solved by the invention

[0015] The theatrical performance method is applied to movies and TV programs using multiple camera equipment.

[0016] Shortening the filming period for movies and TV programs. Simplifying the work involved in recording. Means to solve the problem

[0017] Small video cameras are installed in furniture and props that do not appear unnatural to the viewer as part of the background and are placed in the location specified by the director. Consider the range of movement and number of performers, the distance from the performers, the direction, and the size of the scene being shown. Using the same method, a sound collector can be installed or placed in a location where it will not appear in the video. During the filming, the filmmaker will record video and audio from all filming and sound collection devices.

[0018] By recording the performances of all performers using multiple cameras, the same effect as a theatrical performance can be achieved, and the time and effort required to change actors and performers for each scene can be eliminated. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] A separate waiting area for production staff is set up, and images from each piece of filming equipment are managed on multiple monitors. It is also possible to give instructions either by voice or through a microphone and speaker.

[0020] The actors' performances are based on the director's intentions.

[0021] Editing based on the unified will of the production team, and the allocation of total screening and broadcasting time and each screening and broadcasting time, etc. [Example]

[0022] Production of movies, TV dramas, TV programs, etc. [Industrial Applicability] Applications in film and TV production.

Claims

[Claim 1] This method is used in the production of movies and TV programs, in which a photographing device that moves a photograph taken at high speed and reproduces it as a moving image by projecting light and the afterimage effect of vision is built into and concealed in an article that does not look unnatural even if it is reflected in the background of the shooting location, and photographs are taken from a plurality of viewpoints, including the front, diagonal front, left and right, above and below the performers, and the range and number of the performers' movements, the distance and direction from the performers, and the size of the scene being filmed are recorded with the director taking into consideration.
