有关空间——杜可风讲座笔记

看过许多港产片的人,一定对杜可风这个名字不陌生。你可以不懂他这个人,但你一定看过他摄影指导的作品,去问谷哥吧,里头的答案一定会中你所看过的电影,至少几部。

我从《重庆森林》这部戏认识了杜可风,因为里头,阿菲混进去的,梁朝伟的家,正正就是杜可风的家。当时候就觉得这个人很厉害用空间和镜子。后来我和阿虫去香港特地住进重庆大厦,还找了传说中的手扶电梯,拥挤的香港,在杜可风镜头之下,竟然不会窒息!反而成了传奇。用镜子,是他透过镜子来拍阿菲,昨天去听他讲座才知道《无间道》里经典的天台对话,那个用镜子来表达的画面,就是他的巧思。

他是一个永不停歇的男人。每次都有新的点子新的摄影想法冒出,所以,你虽然会从他的电影猜出这是他的风格他的作品,但他很少重复 自己。

“他是天才啊!”讲座完毕我忍不住对身边的‘机神’说。

他的演讲太精彩,我是握着手机,一面听一面做‘笔’录的。‘笔’字要用开关引号。因为全程无笔。

我决定整理出来,但必须声明,因为是听写,所以,如果有错字或错用字的地方,别抓,抓个大意就好。


  • We have great actor. Film is about dense between the space and integrity of the space. I (referred as 'photog' in following text) am the closest person to the actor, actor dont have to project, they have to react, more than acting. If you have a budget, use two camera on two actors, because 'reacting' is more interesting. 
  • Photog  is just a porter between message and the one infront of the camera, we give the space, hence, trust has to be established in between this relationship.
  • I used 'shadow, moving light, speed of camera, colour sceme and reflection' (to tell a story)
  • In west, they wont call the photog until the very last minute before the real shooting time, so they could be perception understanding , in terms of 'space', showing a photog the location is more important. Only then, the possibility of location made what western said 'as written' is seen. However, if you cant change it, EMBRACE it. (example given was the oranges were painted orange as they were still green when filming). Sometimes, the whether makes the art. 
  • Question: (Of all the shakspears) How many good Sheakspear movies you have seen? Its all about interpretation. 
  • Introducing the 'Camera Obscura' -- The first camera, where pin a hole and uses mirror to project the world outside. This is used to a film to show : "as the actor observed".
  •  Music is important to give energy (to the scene) and go further.
  • (We used to see) Based on True Story, but EVERY STORY IS A TRUE STORY. If it is not true to you, why would you care? How to find it? 
无论如何,我简短的‘笔’录,还是无法诠释我们在现场看见的,他的作品,和他挑选的背景音乐的精彩。他选的歌都好好听好衬啊!!
音乐,其实是无法从电影里切割的部分。
