WEBVTT 1 00:00:05.054 --> 00:00:10.529 Animation Basics Animation Art Director 2 00:00:10.529 --> 00:00:13.257 GCC Academy 3 00:00:13.257 --> 00:00:16.607 4 00:00:16.607 --> 00:00:19.941 5 00:00:20.248 --> 00:00:21.649 6 00:00:21.649 --> 00:00:22.999 7 00:00:22.999 --> 00:00:24.223 8 00:00:24.223 --> 00:00:25.396 9 00:00:25.400 --> 00:00:29.719 I'm director Park Min, who will be teaching animation directing 10 00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:34.030 The concept of directing and the role of a director 11 00:00:34.030 --> 00:00:38.360 First Directing, let's start with a title of "What Is Directing?" 12 00:00:38.360 --> 00:00:44.680 Many of you may have a vague and somewhat abstract image when it comes to directing 13 00:00:44.680 --> 00:00:51.240 When we watch movies, theater productions, or dramas, we often see credits for screenplay and directing 14 00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:54.160 That's precisely the directing we're referring to 15 00:00:54.160 --> 00:00:59.959 What is the difference between directing and directing, and so on 16 00:00:59.959 --> 00:01:04.519 I'll explain what directing exactly entails 17 00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:08.080 First off, we now call the shots as directors 18 00:01:08.080 --> 00:01:12.480 And saying 'I direct' is what we call directing 19 00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:19.959 So, actors, lighting, camera crew, and various other staff members create the footage 20 00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:25.239 According to the director's instructions and vision 21 00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:28.199 If we look at the literal definition of 'directing' first 22 00:01:28.199 --> 00:01:34.040 It should be based on the script in theater, broadcasting dramas, and so on 23 00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:42.199 In addition to the actors' performances, stage sets, costumes, lighting, and makeup 24 00:01:42.199 --> 00:01:45.480 various other elements such as music and arts also play a significant role 25 00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:52.599 It's stated that these elements are utilized effectively to create, but it's referring to creating visuals, right? 26 00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:54.360 This is referred to as directing 27 00:01:54.360 --> 00:02:00.839 Seeing only the dictionary definition might be confusing, so I'd like to provide an example 28 00:02:00.839 --> 00:02:05.440 First off, "directing," the person who directs, is called a director 29 00:02:05.440 --> 00:02:09.679 Usually, both the script writing and directing are done together, 30 00:02:09.679 --> 00:02:12.720 but there are many cases where they are done separately 31 00:02:12.720 --> 00:02:15.258 You can think of the script as a screenplay, and directing as what the director does 32 00:02:15.258 --> 00:02:17.839 This does not make 100% right but 33 00:02:17.839 --> 00:02:19.839 Director, the person who does the directing 34 00:02:22.439 --> 00:02:26.960 And then, the screenplay, there has to be a screenplay written in script form 35 00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:33.880 So, as we've set our goal, various people will work on shooting and tasks according to the predetermined plan, right? 36 00:02:33.880 --> 00:02:37.199 The person who directs, as I mentioned earlier, is called the director 37 00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:44.559 I would like to say that directing is about creating expressions intended by the director to achieve their goals 38 00:02:44.559 --> 00:02:47.839 Then what's a goal intentionally set by the director aiming to achieve through their direction 39 00:02:47.839 --> 00:02:50.639 In a screenplay, there are both action descriptions and dialogue 40 00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:54.520 For example, "A walks and delivers dialogue to someone as they walk 41 00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:56.559 Things like this would be the goals, right? 42 00:02:56.559 --> 00:03:01.759 Actors would need to actually walk because we need to film scenes like that 43 00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:08.479 This is a brief explanation of directing, although it might not be enough, I'll provide further details 44 00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:11.720 For example, let's say there's a scene in the screenplay 45 00:03:11.720 --> 00:03:14.039 I've come up with an example 46 00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:17.039 This is Scene number 1 47 00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:22.199 We divide our work into shots, scenes, sequences, etc 48 00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:29.919 You can think of it as starting from the smallest unit and gradually grouping into larger units 49 00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:36.960 Why is it that when we watch movies or certain programs, we hear terms like 'chase scene' or 'fight scene'? 50 00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:39.600 The scenes they're referring to are exactly what we're discussing 51 00:03:39.600 --> 00:03:43.360 You can think of a scene as a collection of shots depicting a fight 52 00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:48.880 Think of a scene as comprising all the shots from the beginning to the end of a chase 53 00:03:48.880 --> 00:03:52.839 The protagonist A is giving a lecture in front of the camera 54 00:03:52.839 --> 00:03:56.639 Right, that's me, I just made up an example 55 00:03:56.639 --> 00:04:00.639 If we were to film this, you could look at the script, 56 00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:05.240 See the action description, and decide on the angle to shoot from 57 00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:08.520 The camera director has set it up like this 58 00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:13.479 If you look at it diagonally, that camera over there could be 59 00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:15.839 The one capturing the protagonist from the front 60 00:04:15.839 --> 00:04:19.000 If you think of A as me 61 00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:21.200 Now, we're watching from the side, 62 00:04:21.200 --> 00:04:24.679 But it could be a shot from the front, facing A 63 00:04:24.679 --> 00:04:27.359 Let's call this the 'A style' from now on 64 00:04:27.359 --> 00:04:29.720 This is just an example 65 00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:33.920 Then, if we take the same script 66 00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:37.000 But change the camera angle to shoot it differently, would that be wrong? 67 00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:38.720 That would also be correct 68 00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:41.279 In this case, it would be facing the front 69 00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:43.839 So, right now, the camera viewfinder behind 70 00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:47.000 The subject is showing my own reflection 71 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:49.600 If you look closely at the picture here, 72 00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:53.279 You'll notice that it's a bit blurry, which we call being out of focus 73 00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:56.399 In this state of being out of focus 74 00:04:56.399 --> 00:05:00.040 The image seen through the camera viewfinder is clear, 75 00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:02.600 I'll explain more later, 76 00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:05.079 If I say that a scene like this was created depending on 77 00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:07.679 where the camera was placed 78 00:05:07.679 --> 00:05:10.399 For convenience, I'll refer to 'cuts' as 'scenes' 79 00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:11.399 If we talk like that 80 00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:16.320 Then the A type and B type I showed earlier aren't really different 81 00:05:16.320 --> 00:05:19.519 The protagonist A is giving a lecture in front of the camera 82 00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:23.959 The protagonist is lecturing in front of the camera 83 00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:26.640 The same goes for A from earlier discussion 84 00:05:26.640 --> 00:05:29.480 Would you like to see one more? 85 00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:32.640 The script is the same 86 00:05:32.640 --> 00:05:35.559 The protagonist A is giving a lecture in front of the camera 87 00:05:35.559 --> 00:05:37.399 This one is at a slight angle 88 00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:40.480 The camera is positioned to the left 89 00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:43.079 When we talk about 'over the shoulder scene, 90 00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:46.359 we often refer to filming from behind one character's shoulder, showing the perspective of the other character 91 00:05:46.359 --> 00:05:49.320 We often refer to filming from over the shoulder, slightly diagonally 92 00:05:49.320 --> 00:05:51.040 So, would this slightly diagonal angle be different? 93 00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:54.279 Would it be an angle or framing that doesn't match the script? 94 00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:55.279 No, it wouldn't 95 00:05:55.279 --> 00:05:57.720 These three can be filmed with the same script 96 00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:02.640 but in the styles of A, B, and C 97 00:06:02.640 --> 00:06:06.119 So, who decides on these? 98 00:06:06.119 --> 00:06:07.519 The director decides 99 00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:10.559 The director of photography, director 100 00:06:10.559 --> 00:06:13.000 And executive director discuss it 101 00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:15.399 The positions of the camera and the subject, 102 00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:18.079 Why the protagonist A needs to be placed like this 103 00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:20.079 All have clear reasons 104 00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:21.119 It's about determining 105 00:06:21.119 --> 00:06:23.079 The styles of A, B, and C 106 00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:25.559 With the camera placement 107 00:06:25.559 --> 00:06:28.079 As I mentioned earlier 108 00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:30.040 I am giving a brief explanation with examples 109 00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:32.519 In a concise manner 110 00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:36.320 Deciding which of A, B, or C is the best is up to the director 111 00:06:36.320 --> 00:06:38.640 That's precisely the role of the director 112 00:06:38.640 --> 00:06:40.839 So they say "okay cut" and choose the scene 113 00:06:40.839 --> 00:06:44.160 If we take the same passage and change the camera position 114 00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.359 And then for 'eye level,' 115 00:06:46.359 --> 00:06:48.640 We're talking about the camera's perspective 116 00:06:48.640 --> 00:06:52.000 The camera can shoot from above, 117 00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:54.799 Below, from the side, or diagonally 118 00:06:54.799 --> 00:06:57.959 The director selects these elements, 119 00:06:57.959 --> 00:07:03.399 Deciding on the scenes or shots to be captured from specific angles or styles 120 00:07:03.399 --> 00:07:05.480 Deciding 'We'll shoot it' is 121 00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:09.079 Part of directing 122 00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:11.399 Then what is the role of a director? 123 00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:13.720 What tasks does a director need to perform 124 00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:15.359 For a piece of work? 125 00:07:15.359 --> 00:07:16.959 Now I'm going to explain to you all 126 00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:20.600 The view captured by multiple cameras placed around the subject 127 00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:25.359 Using the very same script, 128 00:07:25.359 --> 00:07:29.920 will be on a rectangular screen whether it's a TV, monitor, or theater screen 129 00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:34.200 We often refer to it as the layout within the Scene, 130 00:07:34.200 --> 00:07:35.959 However, even when we take photos 131 00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:39.880 We adjust the composition so that the feet aren't cut off 132 00:07:39.880 --> 00:07:42.679 Sometimes shooting horizontally and sometimes vertically 133 00:07:42.679 --> 00:07:45.640 Deciding on these aspects is what the director does 134 00:07:45.640 --> 00:07:48.320 But is that all there is to the director's role? 135 00:07:48.320 --> 00:07:49.239 Not exactly 136 00:07:49.239 --> 00:07:52.399 You could think of someone who does these kinds of tasks 137 00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:55.480 As a director or a producer 138 00:07:55.480 --> 00:08:02.640 I'll continue to provide explanations as you progress further into the details 139 00:08:02.640 --> 00:08:04.600 This one is from last year 140 00:08:04.600 --> 00:08:07.040 SLAM DUNK 141 00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:10.320 There was this manga named The First Slam Dunk 142 00:08:10.320 --> 00:08:13.399 It's been quite a long time since that manga book was published 143 00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:15.519 There were also quite a few animations based on it 144 00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:18.000 But this movie was released again 145 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:19.200 It was re released as a theatrical version 146 00:08:19.200 --> 00:08:23.399 And it garnered a lot of audience attention and was successful at the box office 147 00:08:23.399 --> 00:08:26.200 If you look here, 148 00:08:26.200 --> 00:08:29.200 Below the title of this official movie poster 149 00:08:29.200 --> 00:08:30.600 It says Coming Soon 150 00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:33.280 So, it's before the release 151 00:08:33.280 --> 00:08:35.159 If you take a closer look, 152 00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:40.960 The original work, script, and direction were all by Inoue Takehiko 153 00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:45.080 One person handled all three aspects in these fields 154 00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:46.928 Original work 155 00:08:46.928 --> 00:08:51.880 It literally means the person who originally created that piece 156 00:08:51.880 --> 00:08:56.719 Created the story of the main character of this work and also drew the illustrations himself 157 00:08:56.719 --> 00:08:59.359 Original work, this guy did it 158 00:08:59.359 --> 00:09:00.960 They often take famous people's novels 159 00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:02.799 Or our folktales 160 00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:04.919 To make movies or dramas 161 00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:08.159 For example, they still do a lot of theater productions based on novels 162 00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:09.359 Like those of Shakespeare 163 00:09:09.359 --> 00:09:12.440 From "Hamlet," when we talk about these kinds of works 164 00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:17.599 The original creator of the content is different from the person 165 00:09:17.599 --> 00:09:22.119 who creates the script 166 00:09:22.119 --> 00:09:23.280 Here, the original creator, who made the manga, also wrote the script 167 00:09:23.280 --> 00:09:27.559 When we say "script," we mean the writing used to make a movie 168 00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:29.239 As I mentioned earlier, they also took on the role of director, 169 00:09:29.239 --> 00:09:30.559 deciding which camera angles, A, B, or C, would be best 170 00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:36.159 Actually, one person did 3 men job 171 00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:41.200 So whether it's a movie or a drama, 172 00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:45.400 You often see credits like "directed by, 173 00:09:45.400 --> 00:09:49.080 written by, directed by, produced by," and so on 174 00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:52.239 hat's what I mean by these terms 175 00:09:52.239 --> 00:09:56.000 As I mentioned, about director's job, 176 00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:58.719 Would the director be someone who simply decides on camera angles? 177 00:09:58.719 --> 00:10:04.960 When we say "director" on set, 178 00:10:04.960 --> 00:10:06.960 It's typically understood 179 00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:09.960 As the person who officially debuts 180 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:11.400 Their work through the screen 181 00:10:11.400 --> 00:10:13.239 There are also discussions and opinions like this 182 00:10:13.239 --> 00:10:16.119 However, since we're talking about this role, 183 00:10:16.119 --> 00:10:19.479 what does a director do for the sake of the work? 184 00:10:19.479 --> 00:10:21.840 Put simply, 185 00:10:21.840 --> 00:10:25.520 A scene is the smallest unit of a shot we capture 186 00:10:25.520 --> 00:10:27.960 We have cuts, scenes, and sequences, right? 187 00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:29.960 That cut, each cut, to each cut, 188 00:10:29.960 --> 00:10:33.359 I can say they're the ones who decide between OK and NG 189 00:10:33.359 --> 00:10:35.640 This is the director's sole authority 190 00:10:35.640 --> 00:10:38.440 Of course, during filming, 191 00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:42.840 Blooper can happen due to mistakes by actors, cinematographers, or lighting technicians 192 00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:48.960 But the actor would never say, "This isn't it, this is a blooper let's try it again" 193 00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:50.799 The actor can apologize for making a mistake and ask for another take 194 00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.159 but that doesn't mean 195 00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:58.559 they have the authority to decide between 196 00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:00.919 OK and bloopers for that shot 197 00:11:00.919 --> 00:11:05.479 The blooper cut or take 1, 2, 3, 4 198 00:11:05.479 --> 00:11:09.200 The same scene repeated four or five times, or sometimes even six times 199 00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:12.400 Sometimes, shooting can be done dozens of times 200 00:11:12.400 --> 00:11:15.719 Choosing one of those takes is the director's role 201 00:11:15.719 --> 00:11:20.440 This is the most crucial aspect of what a director does 202 00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:24.760 Here, you see the one I mentioned earlier, A 203 00:11:24.760 --> 00:11:29.320 Earlier, the camera was placed in front of the protagonist, A 204 00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:31.679 But the audience views it from the side 205 00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:33.599 So from the side, 206 00:11:33.599 --> 00:11:39.080 You can see both the camera and the protagonist character, A, 207 00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:40.960 In one frame, 208 00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:45.960 And you can also gauge the distance between them 209 00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:47.599 Since we view it on the screen, 210 00:11:47.599 --> 00:11:51.239 There must be a reason and purpose behind it 211 00:11:51.239 --> 00:11:53.840 When we wonder why the director shot this scene from this angle, 212 00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:57.440 For example, it's to show the distance 213 00:11:57.440 --> 00:11:59.159 Between the camera and Character A. 214 00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:04.239 How far apart are they? 215 00:12:04.239 --> 00:12:05.760 This distance could be because the camera is further back, 216 00:12:05.760 --> 00:12:08.440 or the protagonist is further back, 217 00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:10.280 or the screen is wider and larger, 218 00:12:10.280 --> 00:12:14.760 so much so that this camera could be considered 219 00:12:14.760 --> 00:12:20.479 as the actor since it's what's seen on the screen 220 00:12:20.479 --> 00:12:21.520 so much so that this camera could be considered 221 00:12:21.520 --> 00:12:23.239 As the actor since it's what's seen on the screen 222 00:12:23.239 --> 00:12:24.719 but another camera shooting the subject could be right in front 223 00:12:24.719 --> 00:12:26.640 This camera's position could be as close as it is now, 224 00:12:26.640 --> 00:12:30.880 Or it could be further back, 225 00:12:30.880 --> 00:12:34.159 Showing from the end of the camera tripod leg 226 00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:36.359 To the tip of the man protagonist's foot 227 00:12:36.359 --> 00:12:40.005 If you seriously ponder 228 00:12:40.005 --> 00:12:42.080 Why this screen was chosen, 229 00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:44.400 It's because it shows only one side of the space 230 00:12:44.400 --> 00:12:48.479 This screen restricts the information 231 00:12:48.479 --> 00:12:51.479 Provided by the directing director 232 00:12:51.479 --> 00:12:53.080 Within this frame, 233 00:12:53.080 --> 00:12:57.159 There's only the camera, the subject, and items like a desk, a chair, and a wall 234 00:12:57.159 --> 00:12:59.159 Deliberately showing only these elements 235 00:12:59.159 --> 00:13:00.039 Restricts the information provided 236 00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:04.479 When only these elements are shown, you might not know where this space is 237 00:13:04.479 --> 00:13:06.840 And for viewers, there's no window, 238 00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:11.719 If it's indoors, you can never tell if it's day or night 239 00:13:11.719 --> 00:13:15.320 Unless the next shot is connected and shows a window or light coming in, 240 00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:19.039 Like moonlight or the neon signs outside being turned off, 241 00:13:19.039 --> 00:13:20.440 You can't know for sure 242 00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:22.880 It's to obscure the temporal background 243 00:13:22.880 --> 00:13:27.520 With this intention, the director probably decided on this cut 244 00:13:27.520 --> 00:13:31.159 For second example, 245 00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:33.799 This also depends on personal interpretation 246 00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:36.599 If I were the one directing this 247 00:13:36.599 --> 00:13:39.000 I might have used the viewfinder 248 00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:41.239 To make the protagonist's appearance clear 249 00:13:41.239 --> 00:13:43.719 But kept their actual form in front of the camera 250 00:13:43.719 --> 00:13:46.960 somewhat blurred 251 00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:48.599 Then, you can still see the distance 252 00:13:48.599 --> 00:13:52.239 But rather than distance, it's more about conveying depth 253 00:13:52.239 --> 00:13:55.679 Blurring the depiction of Character A 254 00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:58.479 While keeping the viewfinder's image sharp 255 00:13:58.479 --> 00:14:01.919 Although a bit small, making it very colorful 256 00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:04.960 Appearing vivid and sharp in the viewfinder 257 00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:09.320 This is achieved by applying a filter called "camera" 258 00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:11.799 This could also have been done to emphasize 259 00:14:11.799 --> 00:14:13.440 a different side of the protagonist, 260 00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:16.719 A hidden aspect, or the image they present to others 261 00:14:16.719 --> 00:14:18.159 With such intentions and purposes, 262 00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:21.359 This kind of scene would be well-suited 263 00:14:21.359 --> 00:14:24.200 Now, this becomes the director's intent 264 00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:25.559 Let's move on to the next one 265 00:14:25.559 --> 00:14:29.599 The third type of cuts we've seen like this 266 00:14:29.599 --> 00:14:33.411 In this cut, you can't see the protagonist's face 267 00:14:33.411 --> 00:14:37.760 You can see the back, side, ear, cheek, and so on 268 00:14:37.760 --> 00:14:40.159 Face isn't clearly visible 269 00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:42.880 But the camera is actually quite clear 270 00:14:42.880 --> 00:14:44.520 The viewfinder isn't visible 271 00:14:44.520 --> 00:14:46.599 You can see the camera lens 272 00:14:46.599 --> 00:14:49.520 Looking at the intent and purpose here, 273 00:14:49.520 --> 00:14:53.440 It shows the distance between the camera and Character A 274 00:14:53.440 --> 00:14:55.679 However, it's difficult for us 275 00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:57.919 To accurately gauge how far this distance is 276 00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:00.520 If we were to create an animation 277 00:15:00.520 --> 00:15:03.239 Or draw in the style of A, 278 00:15:03.239 --> 00:15:05.880 Where we only show symmetrical walls with a camera in the middle, 279 00:15:05.880 --> 00:15:09.840 Then we would definitely 280 00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:12.320 Be able to perceive the distance 281 00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:14.440 We might not be able to say exactly how many meters it is, 282 00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:16.559 But we can still get a sense of, "Oh, it's about this far away 283 00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:19.679 However, if there's a screen 284 00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:21.719 That diagonally reflects the same line, 285 00:15:21.719 --> 00:15:23.760 That makes it hard to tell 286 00:15:23.760 --> 00:15:25.559 It can show the distance, but at the same time 287 00:15:25.559 --> 00:15:28.740 It can also convey depth 288 00:15:28.740 --> 00:15:32.520 And still, the protagonist's face isn't revealed 289 00:15:32.520 --> 00:15:34.960 So, through the lens, 290 00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:38.400 If this were, for example, a live streaming, 291 00:15:38.400 --> 00:15:41.080 Then someone, an unspecified large number of people, 292 00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:44.799 Would be watching this protagonist, this lecturer, Character A 293 00:15:44.799 --> 00:15:47.640 So the feeling of being watched by a lot of people online 294 00:15:47.640 --> 00:15:51.400 Even by anonymous people 295 00:15:51.400 --> 00:15:53.840 Could make the protagonist feel anxious, 296 00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:56.159 Or, on the other hand, if they're the type of character 297 00:15:56.159 --> 00:16:02.000 Who enjoys being in the spotlight 298 00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:05.599 And showing themselves to others, 299 00:16:05.599 --> 00:16:09.479 Then this could be well suited 300 00:16:09.479 --> 00:16:12.599 For expressing that well 301 00:16:12.599 --> 00:16:15.520 And since the audience still doesn't know the protagonist's face, 302 00:16:15.520 --> 00:16:17.520 They might be curious as well 303 00:16:17.520 --> 00:16:19.400 By directing with this angle 304 00:16:19.400 --> 00:16:22.719 Before the protagonist is revealed, 305 00:16:22.719 --> 00:16:25.520 It can create even more curiosity 306 00:16:25.520 --> 00:16:28.640 The scenario I described, an example as a script, 307 00:16:28.640 --> 00:16:30.880 Protagonist A giving a lecture in front of the camera 308 00:16:30.880 --> 00:16:35.159 And based on this passage, the director gives the OK or not OK sign for each shot 309 00:16:35.159 --> 00:16:39.359 If we follow the intention mentioned earlier, then the A style is okay 310 00:16:39.359 --> 00:16:42.000 But then again, 311 00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:45.320 We can't currently know the personality 312 00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:47.520 Or mental state of the protagonist lecturing in front of the camera 313 00:16:47.520 --> 00:16:49.599 We can't know if the protagonist is 314 00:16:49.599 --> 00:16:52.359 Angry or sad until they speak 315 00:16:52.359 --> 00:16:54.960 Or if someone else speaks, or there's an object or a subject, 316 00:16:54.960 --> 00:17:00.280 Or other characters engaging in dialogue, 317 00:17:00.280 --> 00:17:02.080 Then the protagonist can express their feelings 318 00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:06.000 So, while we as third-party viewers can perceive and feel While listening or watching, 319 00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:12.040 In a situation where only the camera and the protagonist are present, 320 00:17:12.040 --> 00:17:15.800 Expressing the character's emotional state, psychological state, 321 00:17:15.800 --> 00:17:19.479 Or personality requires the director's direction 322 00:17:19.479 --> 00:17:22.839 If this shot is considered appropriate for conveying those aspects, 323 00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:24.680 Then this shot becomes okay 324 00:17:24.680 --> 00:17:27.760 These kinds of shots, where depth and distance are conveyed 325 00:17:27.760 --> 00:17:31.119 While hiding the protagonist's face, 326 00:17:31.119 --> 00:17:33.239 Can be considered appropriate 327 00:17:33.239 --> 00:17:36.479 When they provide both depth and distance information 328 00:17:36.479 --> 00:17:38.319 To wrap this up, 329 00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:41.719 The person who decides on "OK" and "NG" for a shot is the director 330 00:17:41.719 --> 00:17:45.760 However, for OK, you need director's decision 331 00:17:45.760 --> 00:17:47.839 And the actors' performances and the portrayal of personalities 332 00:17:47.839 --> 00:17:51.040 These personalities can vary, ranging from being kind but a bit sharp tongued 333 00:17:51.040 --> 00:17:54.680 to being kind but talkative and there are various other traits 334 00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:56.400 Whether it's a man, woman, or elderly person, 335 00:17:56.400 --> 00:18:02.040 Efforts will be made to portray these personalities through the cut, dialogue, and voice tone 336 00:18:02.040 --> 00:18:05.920 And the background, initially I only showed the side view 337 00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:10.000 In the second example, it's the rear view, captured through the camera 338 00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:12.199 Through the viewfinder, if there's a window 339 00:18:12.199 --> 00:18:15.439 In the background behind the character, we don't know exactly where it is, 340 00:18:15.439 --> 00:18:20.560 It implies it's indoors in a building, and we might even infer the time of day 341 00:18:20.560 --> 00:18:22.239 Without curtains drawn, 342 00:18:22.239 --> 00:18:25.160 As long as the position of the camera and the character changes, 343 00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:29.319 Viewers may feel different emotions 344 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:31.119 Additionally, these elements constitutes the layout 345 00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:32.400 Time has been mentioned 346 00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:36.800 And combining stage, props, costumes, makeup, lighting, editing, and finally music 347 00:18:36.800 --> 00:18:40.040 all these elements converge to decide if a cut is fitting 348 00:18:40.040 --> 00:18:42.479 Which leads to giving it the OK 349 00:18:42.479 --> 00:18:45.160 The work of a director I mentioned 350 00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:47.680 And, well, directing itself, 351 00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:52.000 An example that can vividly demonstrate 352 00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:54.640 Would be Aladdin 353 00:18:54.640 --> 00:18:56.640 The beloved Disney animation 354 00:18:56.640 --> 00:18:58.239 Here, you have the same original story 355 00:18:58.239 --> 00:19:03.640 With the familiar characters, 356 00:19:03.640 --> 00:19:05.719 Just like the recent versions 357 00:19:05.719 --> 00:19:06.920 The protagonist remains the same 358 00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:08.800 And the story line is nearly identical 359 00:19:08.800 --> 00:19:11.040 Even the dialogues are quite similar 360 00:19:11.040 --> 00:19:17.839 Of course, if the techniques used were animation 361 00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:21.439 Versus live action with CGI 362 00:19:21.439 --> 00:19:22.520 Recent adaptations of "Aladdin" have been made using live-action and CGI 363 00:19:22.520 --> 00:19:25.199 The biggest difference lies there 364 00:19:25.199 --> 00:19:27.040 While the screenplay might have similarities 365 00:19:27.040 --> 00:19:30.520 And can be adapted to fit the times 366 00:19:30.520 --> 00:19:32.479 The fundamental structure remains the same 367 00:19:32.479 --> 00:19:34.439 The director's vision is what brings out the uniqueness of each adaptation 368 00:19:34.439 --> 00:19:39.560 Different directors mean different atmospheres and narrative directions, 369 00:19:39.560 --> 00:19:42.199 especially in crucial points like the climax. 370 00:19:42.199 --> 00:19:44.920 These aspects can vary significantly 371 00:19:44.920 --> 00:19:47.680 But mostly stays with the original script along the way 372 00:19:47.680 --> 00:19:52.000 If you think that having a different director 373 00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:54.880 Still means the screenplay or the original work is similar, 374 00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:59.560 Then there could be differences in techniques, content, acting, and characterization 375 00:19:59.560 --> 00:20:01.520 There could be all sorts of differences 376 00:20:01.520 --> 00:20:04.319 If you see the final destination as the same, 377 00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:06.079 Then it's like having different colors after all 378 00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:08.959 Wonka, currently in theaters 379 00:20:08.959 --> 00:20:12.119 The prequel of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory 380 00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:13.319 It's the previous story 381 00:20:13.319 --> 00:20:15.719 The main actor is so famous 382 00:20:15.719 --> 00:20:19.599 Johnny Depp was like he was born for this character 383 00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:22.079 The director is completely different 384 00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:24.160 The two individuals are completely different, 385 00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:27.079 And the colors are also different 386 00:20:27.079 --> 00:20:31.479 It seems to have the same tone in the dialogue, but it's different 387 00:20:31.479 --> 00:20:33.520 It has completely different colors 388 00:20:33.520 --> 00:20:38.199 Of course, the story may be divided into beginning and subsequent parts, 389 00:20:38.199 --> 00:20:40.280 But even so, it's the same movie with the same protagonist 390 00:20:40.280 --> 00:20:42.239 And the same background 391 00:20:42.239 --> 00:20:44.920 From every artistic aspect, 392 00:20:44.920 --> 00:20:47.880 The appearance of characters that captivates us 393 00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:51.280 Everything from the directorial style to the story line is completely different 394 00:20:51.280 --> 00:20:55.560 That's exactly what the director decides 395 00:20:55.560 --> 00:20:59.959 If the director who directed "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory" 396 00:20:59.959 --> 00:21:04.040 And Tim Burton, who directed this film, were to say, 397 00:21:04.040 --> 00:21:06.920 "I want to continue this movie 398 00:21:06.920 --> 00:21:10.599 In a way that emphasizes continuity more," 399 00:21:10.599 --> 00:21:13.119 They would probably make everything 400 00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:17.079 From coloring to costumes to makeup just like the old movie 401 00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:18.280 Even if the protagonist were different, 402 00:21:18.280 --> 00:21:21.520 They might have rewritten the protagonist to be played by Johnny Depp again, 403 00:21:21.520 --> 00:21:25.160 And they could even create a younger version of Johnny Depp using CGI 404 00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:29.280 The decision not to do that could be influenced by the production team, 405 00:21:29.280 --> 00:21:31.040 but it also reflects the intentions of the directors 406 00:21:31.040 --> 00:21:36.119 They might think, "It's the same story, but I want to express it in my own way, 407 00:21:36.119 --> 00:21:39.079 The way I envision it 408 00:21:39.079 --> 00:21:41.520 Desire to bring their goals and desires into the project 409 00:21:41.520 --> 00:21:45.479 Exactly, that's the essence of what a director does 410 00:21:45.479 --> 00:21:49.599 Although it's live action movie but there are lots of animated series 411 00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:53.000 and I've directed several episodes of 412 00:21:53.000 --> 00:21:55.040 The Spider-Man animated series myself 413 00:21:55.040 --> 00:21:58.479 Here, you can see that the character has been evolving since the first Spider-Man, 414 00:21:58.479 --> 00:22:02.000 continuing through the second and third, up to the present 415 00:22:02.000 --> 00:22:05.479 But if you look, in case of "The Amazing Spider-Man," 416 00:22:05.479 --> 00:22:09.239 First series already had trilogy but what they did was a reboot 417 00:22:09.239 --> 00:22:11.920 They essentially went back to the same story again 418 00:22:11.920 --> 00:22:15.800 At first, I was quite apprehensive when this movie was released 419 00:22:15.800 --> 00:22:20.000 The protagonist and the production team changed, and even the director changed, 420 00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:21.719 But it's essentially the same story 421 00:22:21.719 --> 00:22:24.640 And you are just going to swap things and do it all over again? 422 00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:27.319 If it was music industry, 423 00:22:27.319 --> 00:22:29.800 Sometimes musicians publish remade songs 424 00:22:29.800 --> 00:22:33.520 Taking popular but old song 425 00:22:33.520 --> 00:22:36.520 Revitalizing the song with new taste and color 426 00:22:36.520 --> 00:22:38.239 Is called remake songs 427 00:22:38.239 --> 00:22:42.479 But watching a 90 minute long movie that has same characters and stories, 428 00:22:42.479 --> 00:22:44.520 Made me worry that it might not work out 429 00:22:44.520 --> 00:22:47.560 I really enjoyed it, even though it was the same story 430 00:22:47.560 --> 00:22:50.280 I knew how it would unfold 431 00:22:50.280 --> 00:22:54.599 But getting immersed in this new director's version of Spider Man's story was captivating 432 00:22:54.599 --> 00:22:57.730 That's the role of the scriptwriter and director 433 00:22:57.730 --> 00:23:00.520 I think many of you have probably watched it too 434 00:23:00.520 --> 00:23:03.680 The newest Spider Man is portrayed to be much younger 435 00:23:03.680 --> 00:23:06.800 The relationship with Iron Man is getting deeper too 436 00:23:06.800 --> 00:23:09.640 Since he's younger, we see more of immature side of Spider Man 437 00:23:09.640 --> 00:23:12.479 They gave more focus on the process of growth of the character himself 438 00:23:12.479 --> 00:23:14.599 Now he is not a kid anymore though 439 00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:19.959 So, while initially gaining incredible powers as a superhero 440 00:23:19.959 --> 00:23:21.920 comes with a sense of responsibility, 441 00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:25.169 as the story progresses, we see the character facing and grappling with typical teenage issues 442 00:23:25.169 --> 00:23:28.719 And grappling with typical teenage issues 443 00:23:28.719 --> 00:23:33.880 Even though he possesses superhero abilities, he's still just a teenager, 444 00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:36.959 Akin to a high school or early college student, 445 00:23:36.959 --> 00:23:38.920 Experiencing the usual challenges and dilemmas 446 00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:42.640 Common among young people around his age 447 00:23:42.640 --> 00:23:48.079 The portrayal remains true to the character's humanity and the enduring essence of friendship and love 448 00:23:48.079 --> 00:23:49.959 Despite having the power of a hero 449 00:23:49.959 --> 00:23:57.239 It's about the hero's journey through the trials of everyday life, 450 00:23:57.239 --> 00:24:01.400 And evolving as both a superhero and as a human being 451 00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:05.000 Who had existing relationships with family and loved ones 452 00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:07.479 We witness his growth and maturation 453 00:24:07.479 --> 00:24:11.040 Navigating the complexities of life while balancing his responsibilities as a hero 454 00:24:11.040 --> 00:24:15.319 As movies age, they accumulate experiences, 455 00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:18.359 And most of them have been successful, 456 00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:20.760 Gaining worldwide popularity 457 00:24:20.760 --> 00:24:23.000 So, despite the story line being the same, 458 00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:25.880 these factors can influence the story depending on the character and other elements 459 00:24:25.880 --> 00:24:27.439 Very interestingly, 460 00:24:27.439 --> 00:24:31.199 When the protagonist was initially played by Tobey Maguire 461 00:24:31.199 --> 00:24:33.839 And then gradually transitioned to other actors, such as Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland 462 00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:36.920 There were significant differences in how they portrayed the character 463 00:24:36.920 --> 00:24:39.439 When having same action scenes and dialogues 464 00:24:39.439 --> 00:24:44.839 Recently, the three actors came together to film a movie 465 00:24:44.839 --> 00:24:49.040 It might seem absurd, but let's say we're dealing with a time loop here 466 00:24:49.040 --> 00:24:52.839 They gather by traveling through time, meeting up through the use of a time machine 467 00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:56.079 The people involved in creating things beyond our imagination, 468 00:24:56.079 --> 00:24:59.040 Including directors, producers, screenwriters, and directors, gather 469 00:24:59.040 --> 00:25:00.079 And say, "Let's surprise our audience with something 470 00:25:00.079 --> 00:25:04.359 They can't even imagine 471 00:25:04.359 --> 00:25:07.119 Everyone seemed to enjoy it more and felt nostalgic 472 00:25:07.119 --> 00:25:11.520 Seeing the older face of Spider Man, 473 00:25:11.520 --> 00:25:13.839 Who used to portray a youthful high schooler 474 00:25:13.839 --> 00:25:16.199 But now appears well into his 40s 475 00:25:16.199 --> 00:25:19.640 Making me feel sad about it 476 00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:21.000 But then there's the new Spider Man, 477 00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:22.760 Still a young Spider Man, 478 00:25:22.760 --> 00:25:28.280 It seemed like they were passing the torch of Spider Man's job to the next generation 479 00:25:28.280 --> 00:25:29.520 but in reality 480 00:25:29.520 --> 00:25:32.599 it was a setting where they were living in different time periods 481 00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:34.000 That was the basic setting 482 00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:37.719 That setting, like everything else, is ultimately determined by the writers, 483 00:25:37.719 --> 00:25:40.520 Directors, producers, and so on the ones laying down the foundations 484 00:25:40.520 --> 00:25:43.880 Initially, they probably gathered and brainstormed something like, 485 00:25:43.880 --> 00:25:46.319 "What if we took the same screenplay and script 486 00:25:46.319 --> 00:25:48.520 We used for the last movie and approached the world building 487 00:25:48.520 --> 00:25:51.160 From a different angle this time? 488 00:25:51.160 --> 00:25:53.119 How about trying to shoot it in a different direction?" 489 00:25:53.119 --> 00:25:54.719 That would be a new approach 490 00:25:54.719 --> 00:25:57.959 The story will have the same contents 491 00:25:57.959 --> 00:26:00.479 But if the director decides to convey more depressing emotions 492 00:26:00.479 --> 00:26:02.760 And aspects closer to human nature 493 00:26:02.760 --> 00:26:05.359 Because previously, Spider Man was more heroic, 494 00:26:05.359 --> 00:26:08.520 So, people were looking up to him and relied on him 495 00:26:08.520 --> 00:26:12.680 This time, the director might want to focus on the human struggle, 496 00:26:12.680 --> 00:26:14.479 Emphasize more of the human struggles of this Spider Man 497 00:26:14.479 --> 00:26:16.880 Make it a bit darker 498 00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:20.719 Then the direction of the direction would be set, 499 00:26:20.719 --> 00:26:23.359 And it would become a completely different movie with a different color 500 00:26:23.359 --> 00:26:25.319 I mentioned the way of portraying different style 501 00:26:25.319 --> 00:26:26.680 And different color with a same story 502 00:26:26.680 --> 00:26:30.280 Through different lenses, A,B, and C 503 00:26:30.280 --> 00:26:33.040 And deciding this based on that is the role of directors 504 00:26:33.040 --> 00:26:35.920 I provided a simplified example, 505 00:26:35.920 --> 00:26:38.760 The director's role encompasses a wide range of decisions 506 00:26:38.760 --> 00:26:40.800 Including stage setup, lighting, performances, backgrounds, 507 00:26:40.800 --> 00:26:44.359 And even the overall world-building, 508 00:26:44.359 --> 00:26:48.199 All of which contribute to creating a new film 509 00:26:48.199 --> 00:26:51.760 I think many people would have watched this movie too 510 00:26:51.760 --> 00:26:55.839 If we compare it to Korean movies, "Mugando" or "Sinsegye," 511 00:26:55.839 --> 00:26:59.280 You could say they share a similar context 512 00:26:59.280 --> 00:27:05.640 It's about a double agent who is a police officer but ends up becoming 513 00:27:05.640 --> 00:27:13.760 The leader of a criminal organization Eventually, he forgets his identity as a police officer 514 00:27:13.760 --> 00:27:17.280 It would be very challenging while infiltrating and conducting spy activities, 515 00:27:17.280 --> 00:27:22.880 Especially with the constant fear of being discovered 516 00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:26.359 These intriguing stories of deceit and betrayal, 517 00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:31.000 Where the outcomes are uncertain, 518 00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:35.199 Eastern super star actors 519 00:27:35.199 --> 00:27:41.479 The exact same lines and actions from the movie 520 00:27:41.479 --> 00:27:45.920 Are performed by western super stars like DiCaprio, Damon or Nicholson 521 00:27:45.920 --> 00:27:52.119 With their unique cultural background and nuances 522 00:27:52.119 --> 00:27:54.880 Will bring somewhat new taste to the content 523 00:27:54.880 --> 00:27:58.599 Even they share the same films genre like gangster or noir, 524 00:27:58.599 --> 00:28:01.400 The ways they portray violence are different 525 00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:03.319 From the behavior, culture, language, 526 00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:06.800 to skin color, hairstyle, and clothing style, 527 00:28:06.800 --> 00:28:11.000 Eastern and Western people are all different 528 00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:15.000 These differences could be portrayed and highlighted 529 00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:19.079 Because it was done by remarkable directors, 530 00:28:19.079 --> 00:28:22.680 Mugando and Departed feels like they are completely a different movie 531 00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:26.199 If someone who haven't watched Mugando and 532 00:28:26.199 --> 00:28:28.839 Have watched Departed, 533 00:28:28.839 --> 00:28:33.439 It's possible to perceive this as an independent film 534 00:28:33.439 --> 00:28:36.160 If someone finds out that the original film was Mugando, 535 00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:38.280 They will probably enjoy it as well 536 00:28:38.280 --> 00:28:43.920 They have the same story but those two movies have different taste and color 537 00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:47.920 Also, having Andy Lau and Tony Leung in the film is different 538 00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:52.439 From having DiCaprio and Matt Damon in the film 539 00:28:52.439 --> 00:28:55.959 Just like the music I told you about, 540 00:28:55.959 --> 00:29:00.119 Having a very popular song 541 00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:03.439 Revitalized by "pop stars" 542 00:29:03.439 --> 00:29:06.959 When a popular pop star 543 00:29:06.959 --> 00:29:10.599 Sings the old song feels so much different 544 00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:13.880 But we also like that style 545 00:29:13.880 --> 00:29:18.199 We cheer and adore them 546 00:29:18.199 --> 00:29:20.839 The world's most remade song 547 00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:23.479 Is Yesterday by The Beatles 548 00:29:23.479 --> 00:29:25.400 Every other musician singing the same song 549 00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:31.119 Will sound different from the original track by The Beatles 550 00:29:31.119 --> 00:29:35.119 If you think of those musicians that remake old songs 551 00:29:35.119 --> 00:29:37.199 As these directors might give you better understanding 552 00:29:37.199 --> 00:29:39.800 Contents dealt with are different 553 00:29:39.800 --> 00:29:41.719 The methodology aligns together ultimately 554 00:29:41.719 --> 00:29:44.560 Industry size or characteristics may differ 555 00:29:44.560 --> 00:29:47.040 But the idea is fundamentally the same 556 00:29:47.040 --> 00:29:49.640 Let's look at next example, 557 00:29:49.640 --> 00:29:50.760 These are Korean movies 558 00:29:50.760 --> 00:29:53.400 Remade in Hollywood 559 00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:55.040 There's one called A Love Story 560 00:29:55.040 --> 00:29:56.439 Many of you probably know this 561 00:29:56.439 --> 00:29:58.839 Starring Lee Jungjae and Jeon Jaehyeon 562 00:29:58.839 --> 00:30:04.199 If the movie "The Lake House" depicts 563 00:30:04.199 --> 00:30:10.599 The process of building a human connection 564 00:30:10.599 --> 00:30:11.959 And love by transcending the time and space through a mailbox, 565 00:30:11.959 --> 00:30:14.359 The Lake House was made with A Love Story copyright 566 00:30:14.359 --> 00:30:17.640 The movie wasn't that successful 567 00:30:17.640 --> 00:30:19.560 Was it the actors? It can't be 568 00:30:19.560 --> 00:30:22.000 It probably wasn't 569 00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:23.800 A lot of people say this 570 00:30:23.800 --> 00:30:27.000 Emotions Eastern people, us Korean, feel and 571 00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:31.199 Western people's culture of getting to know someone 572 00:30:31.199 --> 00:30:34.680 Has been totally different 573 00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:38.199 Different world, different region 574 00:30:38.199 --> 00:30:41.680 Everything, from traditions to cultures being different 575 00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:45.400 That's why the emotions or empathy 576 00:30:45.400 --> 00:30:46.599 We can feel are often quite different 577 00:30:46.599 --> 00:30:50.319 The empathy, tenderness, or love you felt in A Love Story, 578 00:30:50.319 --> 00:30:53.079 may not be something we can feel in The Lake House 579 00:30:53.079 --> 00:30:56.439 On the other hand, Westerners might find aspects in The Lake House 580 00:30:56.439 --> 00:30:59.079 That they couldn't feel in A Love Story 581 00:30:59.079 --> 00:31:05.119 While it could be differences in culture, medium, 582 00:31:05.119 --> 00:31:07.920 The screenwriter, director, or production team, 583 00:31:07.920 --> 00:31:10.839 Fundamentally, even with distinct differences, 584 00:31:10.839 --> 00:31:14.160 different directors can create works with the same content 585 00:31:16.920 --> 00:31:19.719 The Man from Nowhere very famous 586 00:31:19.719 --> 00:31:24.199 starring Won Bin, is a noir film 587 00:31:24.199 --> 00:31:27.280 It was remade In Turkiye 588 00:31:27.280 --> 00:31:30.640 The poster itself shows 589 00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:34.199 They share the same plot and contents but the style is very different 590 00:31:34.199 --> 00:31:37.439 There have also been remakes of such films, 591 00:31:37.439 --> 00:31:40.359 transforming them into something completely different 592 00:31:40.359 --> 00:31:43.920 My Sassy girl was a huge success, too 593 00:31:43.920 --> 00:31:46.119 Lots of people watched it 594 00:31:46.119 --> 00:31:50.400 And similarly, with the copyright, 595 00:31:50.400 --> 00:31:52.760 My Sassy girl was remade in Hollywood 596 00:31:52.760 --> 00:31:55.400 Even actors were very well known 597 00:31:55.400 --> 00:31:58.920 However, this movie didn't garner as much empathy 598 00:31:58.920 --> 00:32:02.560 It's probably in The Sassy girl, 599 00:32:02.560 --> 00:32:06.199 The main character 600 00:32:06.199 --> 00:32:09.719 It was the kind of bizarre appearance that we couldn't even imagine 601 00:32:09.719 --> 00:32:12.599 But it wasn't that there's anything wrong 602 00:32:12.599 --> 00:32:15.119 Or any way related to crime 603 00:32:15.119 --> 00:32:17.520 However, the character was made based on our culture, 604 00:32:17.520 --> 00:32:20.439 We could relate to it 605 00:32:20.439 --> 00:32:23.359 That's how people got into the movie 606 00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:27.959 The love story created by the reactions 607 00:32:27.959 --> 00:32:31.880 of the male protagonist showing his pure side, 608 00:32:31.880 --> 00:32:34.400 to the actions and words of the female protagonist 609 00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:36.680 We were drawn to that 610 00:32:36.680 --> 00:32:39.239 However, those points in Hollywood version, 611 00:32:39.239 --> 00:32:43.439 Is just way different than the perspective of a different culture 612 00:32:43.439 --> 00:32:47.359 Having movie quotes translated into different language 613 00:32:47.359 --> 00:32:50.000 Doesn't always mean that they will convey every bit successfully 614 00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:54.199 When we watch big movies 615 00:32:54.199 --> 00:32:55.280 Really famous ones 616 00:32:55.280 --> 00:32:58.800 Titanic and other famous movies 617 00:32:58.800 --> 00:33:01.400 Tell us that no matter the nationality, 618 00:33:01.400 --> 00:33:02.680 We all share the sadness comes with the story 619 00:33:02.680 --> 00:33:05.640 Showing that there still are some common ground 620 00:33:05.640 --> 00:33:08.839 As a human being, 621 00:33:08.839 --> 00:33:10.920 transcends language, 622 00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:15.439 And crosses all boundaries of race or nationality. 623 00:33:15.439 --> 00:33:17.959 As human beings, we all feel the same 624 00:33:17.959 --> 00:33:19.800 joy, sadness, 625 00:33:19.800 --> 00:33:22.000 and other emotions 626 00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:23.640 This is the same regardless of personality 627 00:33:23.640 --> 00:33:26.000 That can be seen as differences in style 628 00:33:26.000 --> 00:33:28.119 While the director might have expressed it in his own style, 629 00:33:28.119 --> 00:33:32.160 There were some enjoyable aspects 630 00:33:32.160 --> 00:33:34.239 From the original work 631 00:33:34.239 --> 00:33:36.839 That weren't fully captured 632 00:33:36.839 --> 00:33:39.199 In my personal opinion 633 00:33:39.199 --> 00:33:42.319 Old boy, such a famous movie 634 00:33:42.319 --> 00:33:44.959 It's based on a Japanese comic book 635 00:33:44.959 --> 00:33:47.680 Despite the fact that it's from an original work 636 00:33:47.680 --> 00:33:52.119 The story is built on the structure of the original but significantly different 637 00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:54.479 It's an adaptation through the screenplay 638 00:33:54.479 --> 00:33:56.560 In the US 639 00:33:56.560 --> 00:34:00.520 He is a very famous actor 640 00:34:00.520 --> 00:34:02.719 Who cast in Avengers movie 641 00:34:02.719 --> 00:34:06.439 He played in Old boy as main character 642 00:34:06.439 --> 00:34:09.439 But it can be seen as a prime example of a failure 643 00:34:09.439 --> 00:34:11.919 To achieve noticeable enjoyment or commercial success 644 00:34:11.919 --> 00:34:13.639 People Who initially brought this 645 00:34:13.639 --> 00:34:16.040 To make a movie 646 00:34:16.040 --> 00:34:17.520 Must have felt 647 00:34:17.520 --> 00:34:19.840 All the emotions conveyed 648 00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:23.320 And thought that they can make one that relates to the culture 649 00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:26.239 They did their best but the effort didn't just pay out 650 00:34:26.239 --> 00:34:27.959 People call this kind of work, white washing 651 00:34:27.959 --> 00:34:30.719 A Tale of Two Sisters, 652 00:34:30.719 --> 00:34:32.520 They both are horror movies 653 00:34:32.520 --> 00:34:34.959 But has significant difference 654 00:34:34.959 --> 00:34:37.719 The terror, the pressure 655 00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:41.719 Keeping it tense the whole running time 656 00:34:41.719 --> 00:34:44.639 Making people question 657 00:34:44.639 --> 00:34:48.040 whether they share the same movie plot or not 658 00:34:48.040 --> 00:34:51.199 I too, write scripts 659 00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:53.040 And direct my own films 660 00:34:53.040 --> 00:34:55.399 After writing the screenplay and getting investments, 661 00:34:55.399 --> 00:34:56.719 I decide to go as animation 662 00:34:56.719 --> 00:34:59.040 Or, live action movie 663 00:34:59.040 --> 00:35:00.719 But if I use the same contents 664 00:35:00.719 --> 00:35:02.800 And gave the scenario to someone 665 00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:05.040 Then the director's style shines through 666 00:35:05.040 --> 00:35:07.439 You know the director's job we talked about 667 00:35:07.439 --> 00:35:09.679 Those are the things that need to be done for the sake of the work 668 00:35:09.679 --> 00:35:11.360 It can be different from others 669 00:35:11.360 --> 00:35:13.760 If I give away the same work, title 670 00:35:13.760 --> 00:35:15.320 And the same scenario, 671 00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:20.399 If one decided to make it similarly in line with that 672 00:35:20.399 --> 00:35:21.520 If the goals were made 673 00:35:21.520 --> 00:35:24.226 That would be the director's choice and duty 674 00:35:25.050 --> 00:35:28.900 The concept of animation direction 675 00:35:28.900 --> 00:35:30.100 Animation direction 676 00:35:30.100 --> 00:35:32.080 We can keep it simple for this one 677 00:35:32.080 --> 00:35:35.280 The concept differs significantly from what we discussed earlier about directing 678 00:35:35.280 --> 00:35:37.399 When we say "directing," 679 00:35:37.399 --> 00:35:43.239 If we show them some great photos to our friends or people around us, 680 00:35:43.239 --> 00:35:44.840 People might not easily believe it 681 00:35:44.840 --> 00:35:47.320 Some people might say, "This is directed," when we show them such things 682 00:35:47.320 --> 00:35:49.639 That's the direction I'm referring to 683 00:35:49.639 --> 00:35:51.840 However, when we say animation direction, 684 00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:55.760 It encompasses all the aspects I described earlier, 685 00:35:55.760 --> 00:36:01.560 Leading up to the point where the animation director oversees the entire production 686 00:36:01.560 --> 00:36:03.380 However, when we talk about animation direction, 687 00:36:03.380 --> 00:36:07.479 it literally refers to animation, which involves movement and drawing 688 00:36:07.479 --> 00:36:10.320 It means that you have to draw animated pictures 689 00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:14.760 The ability to draw well is crucial for creating animation movements 690 00:36:14.760 --> 00:36:20.679 And drawing images through video to produce film, just like in live-action movies 691 00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:23.439 The person who approves that is the director 692 00:36:23.439 --> 00:36:26.679 And it's the director's responsibility to control everything until that approval 693 00:36:26.679 --> 00:36:28.199 Directors control actors, 694 00:36:28.199 --> 00:36:33.199 Backgrounds, art, lighting, shooting, and everything else 695 00:36:33.199 --> 00:36:34.439 Since it's about making decisions 696 00:36:34.439 --> 00:36:38.239 There also aren't actors in animation, 697 00:36:38.239 --> 00:36:40.199 There are no actual people; instead, 698 00:36:40.199 --> 00:36:42.800 Drawings are made to resemble real people 699 00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:44.840 Drawing in animation is called "animation" or "animating" 700 00:36:44.840 --> 00:36:47.800 The person who animates takes on the role of the actor 701 00:36:47.800 --> 00:36:52.199 So the process of animating is referred to as animation direction 702 00:36:52.199 --> 00:36:53.639 In simple terms, the director gives instructions 703 00:36:53.639 --> 00:36:57.009 Actors perform 704 00:36:57.009 --> 00:36:59.439 However, since there are no actors performing 705 00:36:59.439 --> 00:37:03.800 Animation involves animation and direction 706 00:37:03.800 --> 00:37:08.399 A, who walks worriedly, 707 00:37:08.399 --> 00:37:12.040 Thinking that he didn't do well in today's lecture 708 00:37:12.040 --> 00:37:17.439 Here, we see a part that can't be acted out by a real person 709 00:37:17.439 --> 00:37:18.639 Drawing is required for this part 710 00:37:18.639 --> 00:37:21.479 To create movement by drawing, One needs animation skills 711 00:37:21.479 --> 00:37:25.320 Also require timing sense and timing sheet for movement 712 00:37:25.320 --> 00:37:26.560 There are a lot of drawing to do 713 00:37:26.560 --> 00:37:29.639 Director must order in what sequence 714 00:37:29.639 --> 00:37:31.199 The story is going to be animated 715 00:37:31.199 --> 00:37:33.879 With the whole staff 716 00:37:33.879 --> 00:37:36.040 That's why directors must know the technical part of animating 717 00:37:36.040 --> 00:37:37.479 There is a grammar to film making 718 00:37:37.479 --> 00:37:42.360 When cameras change angles, 719 00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:46.800 there are film making rules in place to ensure that viewers don't get confused, 720 00:37:46.800 --> 00:37:49.479 Such as how the next scene transitions or how the scene is framed 721 00:37:49.479 --> 00:37:52.479 The understanding and skills related to how to insert insert shots 722 00:37:52.479 --> 00:37:54.869 As well as the animation production process 723 00:37:54.869 --> 00:37:58.399 And the differences between animation and live-action processes, are clearly necessary 724 00:37:58.399 --> 00:38:03.399 For example, this is what I've been doing to explain animation 725 00:38:03.399 --> 00:38:07.560 For Walking animation and directing walking animation, 726 00:38:07.560 --> 00:38:09.000 Looks good 727 00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:14.199 This requires several drawings to match the front and back views exactly the same 728 00:38:14.199 --> 00:38:16.159 The character must look the same too 729 00:38:16.159 --> 00:38:20.479 Drawing this and animating it into a moving image 730 00:38:20.479 --> 00:38:22.159 That is the skill of animation 731 00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:25.800 This is what animation direction entails 732 00:38:25.800 --> 00:38:27.659 If there is walking motion in the script 733 00:38:27.659 --> 00:38:31.159 This script is the same right? 734 00:38:31.159 --> 00:38:33.439 This shows walking motion from the side not from front this time 735 00:38:33.439 --> 00:38:37.320 This one gives the feeling of walking with a trudging motion 736 00:38:37.320 --> 00:38:38.560 Do you see what I mean? 737 00:38:38.560 --> 00:38:42.719 If it rains in the background, it could emphasize 738 00:38:42.719 --> 00:38:47.399 Being worried and disappointed 739 00:38:47.399 --> 00:38:50.120 Now the second example, 740 00:38:50.120 --> 00:38:51.399 Same script 741 00:38:51.399 --> 00:38:53.320 Worried A 742 00:38:53.320 --> 00:38:55.120 Walking motion is faster now right? 743 00:38:55.120 --> 00:38:57.280 How about this? 744 00:38:57.280 --> 00:38:59.959 It can convey feeling of anxiety 745 00:38:59.959 --> 00:39:03.560 There's no facial expression 746 00:39:03.560 --> 00:39:06.639 But successfully shows this person is actually worried 747 00:39:06.639 --> 00:39:09.959 Thinking to go back home quick to resolve issues 748 00:39:09.959 --> 00:39:11.560 Thinking if he made a mistake 749 00:39:11.560 --> 00:39:13.520 Or if he misspoke 750 00:39:13.520 --> 00:39:17.280 Gives the feeling of walking with the thought of uncertainty 751 00:39:17.280 --> 00:39:18.862 They are all motions of walking 752 00:39:18.862 --> 00:39:23.719 But the technique of describing the circumstance and personality of the character 753 00:39:23.719 --> 00:39:25.399 It's done by giving a little tweak 754 00:39:25.399 --> 00:39:27.840 This is animating, animation directing 755 00:39:27.840 --> 00:39:29.560 I will give you one more example with this third one 756 00:39:29.560 --> 00:39:32.280 Still the same script 757 00:39:32.280 --> 00:39:34.358 A walking very worried 758 00:39:34.358 --> 00:39:37.040 Now it's even quicker 759 00:39:37.040 --> 00:39:40.600 This almost look like he's running away 760 00:39:40.600 --> 00:39:44.600 On a film set, there may or may not be a cameraperson, 761 00:39:44.600 --> 00:39:47.439 Script supervisor, or scriptwriter present, 762 00:39:47.439 --> 00:39:52.080 But there are many other people such as actors, lighting crew, and art department 763 00:39:52.080 --> 00:39:57.320 There even could be PD, assistant director with a crew size of dozens 764 00:39:57.320 --> 00:40:01.120 It looks like right before sprinting away 765 00:40:01.120 --> 00:40:04.800 As if realizing one's mistake on the set 766 00:40:04.800 --> 00:40:06.639 If we're talking about walking, it's still walking, 767 00:40:06.639 --> 00:40:07.600 not running, 768 00:40:07.600 --> 00:40:09.479 just like this 769 00:40:09.479 --> 00:40:11.439 It also can become motion of running away 770 00:40:11.439 --> 00:40:14.080 A, who walks with concern, 771 00:40:14.080 --> 00:40:16.100 Worrying about something 772 00:40:16.100 --> 00:40:17.639 But bu understanding the situation 773 00:40:17.639 --> 00:40:20.399 We can show three condensed 774 00:40:20.399 --> 00:40:21.399 Examples of portraying 775 00:40:21.399 --> 00:40:24.080 This character's psychological state 776 00:40:24.080 --> 00:40:25.280 But there could be countless more 777 00:40:25.280 --> 00:40:26.479 It could be a side view, 778 00:40:26.479 --> 00:40:27.959 A front view, 779 00:40:27.959 --> 00:40:29.399 A back view, 780 00:40:29.399 --> 00:40:31.520 Or even a top-down perspective 781 00:40:31.520 --> 00:40:33.120 There are many options 782 00:40:33.120 --> 00:40:35.184 That's what we call animation direction and animation 783 00:40:38.719 --> 00:40:41.879 A walking with happiness is clearly elated, 784 00:40:41.879 --> 00:40:44.919 Or perhaps somewhat 785 00:40:44.919 --> 00:40:48.639 Gone crazy running 786 00:40:48.639 --> 00:40:50.639 But objectively, most people would likely interpret it 787 00:40:50.639 --> 00:40:52.280 As someone feeling good about something 788 00:40:52.280 --> 00:40:54.000 That's probably what many people perceive this as 789 00:40:54.000 --> 00:40:56.159 This way, we describe things 790 00:40:56.159 --> 00:40:59.639 We've summarized 791 00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:01.199 What we've discussed about directing so far 792 00:41:01.199 --> 00:41:05.800 If we dig more deeply into the definition 793 00:41:05.800 --> 00:41:08.639 And provide examples one by one, 794 00:41:08.639 --> 00:41:10.080 The discussion on directing could be limitless 795 00:41:10.080 --> 00:41:12.840 From the perspective of someone has a career in film making, 796 00:41:12.840 --> 00:41:15.479 Let me try to explain in simple terms 797 00:41:15.479 --> 00:41:17.320 I must not say that 798 00:41:17.320 --> 00:41:19.239 I am always right, 799 00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:20.919 I believe it's been wonderful time 800 00:41:20.919 --> 00:41:22.439 To concretely illustrate 801 00:41:22.439 --> 00:41:24.560 The abstract meaning of 802 00:41:24.560 --> 00:41:27.280 Directing through examples 803 00:41:27.280 --> 00:41:30.320 I Showed how directing in film, 804 00:41:30.320 --> 00:41:32.600 Overall directing of a work and directing in animation, 805 00:41:32.600 --> 00:41:33.479 Particularly animation drawing, 806 00:41:33.479 --> 00:41:36.159 differ through examples 807 00:41:36.159 --> 00:41:37.280 So, to summarize, 808 00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:39.879 Earlier, I showed 809 00:41:39.879 --> 00:41:41.639 Three different walking motions 810 00:41:41.639 --> 00:41:44.040 Even if an animator does 811 00:41:44.040 --> 00:41:46.280 The animation and directing, 812 00:41:46.280 --> 00:41:48.719 Choosing one of these three would be 813 00:41:48.719 --> 00:41:51.120 The director or producer's call 814 00:41:51.120 --> 00:41:53.600 Directing and directing, with such similar names, 815 00:41:53.600 --> 00:41:55.639 It can be a bit confusing 816 00:41:55.639 --> 00:41:59.520 Animation drawing, directing, and overall directing of a work, 817 00:41:59.520 --> 00:42:03.159 such as film or animation, have different roles 818 00:42:03.159 --> 00:42:06.600 The basic role of a director is decide on what is approved (OK) and what is not (NG) 819 00:42:06.600 --> 00:42:09.280 The director's role involves 820 00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:11.360 Not only deciding on cuts and scenes 821 00:42:11.360 --> 00:42:14.919 Nut also guiding the overall emotional arc 822 00:42:14.919 --> 00:42:17.800 Or narrative flow 823 00:42:17.800 --> 00:42:19.040 Of the entire film 824 00:42:19.040 --> 00:42:22.120 Or episode according to 825 00:42:22.120 --> 00:42:23.560 Their vision and intentions 826 00:42:23.560 --> 00:42:27.159 And that's the most crucial role of a director 827 00:42:27.159 --> 00:42:29.399 Thank you 828 00:42:30.586 --> 00:42:32.342 Summary Concept of Directing What is Directing?
