Chinese name: martial arts director mbth: Introduction of action directors, guidance group, famous instructors, Yuan Heping, Donnie Yen, Ching-Ying Lam, Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Yuan Kui, Tang Jili, Yuan Bin, action design, famous martial arts directors, Jeff, Ma Yucheng, Kou Zhanwen, Dong Wei, Cao Rong and Qi Xiaofu "Introduction" is a Peking Opera and a troupe. Many friends think that "seven little blessings" refer to seven people, including Jackie Chan, but it's actually more than that. It turns out that in a Peking Opera performance, Master Yu chose Yuan Lou, Yuan Biao, Yuan Kui, Yuan Wah, Yuan Wu and Tai as the protagonists in Seven Little Happiness (Note: Jackie Chan's stage name at that time was Yuan Lou, not his eldest brother's stage name. It was not until later that Sammo Hung, who was five years older than Jackie Chan, made his debut in the film industry that Jackie Chan won the title of Long Yuan. Because the performance was very successful, Yu Zhanyuan took this opportunity to set up the "Seven Little Blessings" Troupe, which not only allowed his disciples to gain more performance experience, but also earned some money, which can be described as "killing two birds with one stone". The troupe of Wushu instructor "Seven Xiaofu" has 14 members. His disciples are not only Seven Xiaofu, but Sammo Hung is actually not among the big brothers. Guan (his father, Guan Hongbao, founded the Shanghai Art and Drama School, became a teacher after arriving in Hong Kong, assisted the master in teaching his disciples, and later founded the Hong Kong Dragon Film Academy himself) and both were before him. Yuan Heping and Yuan Xiangren are also apprentices of Yu Zhanyuan. In addition, China Theatre Academy also includes some female students, such as Yu Zhanyuan's daughters Yu Suqiu, Yuan Qiu, Justin and Fu Yuan. "Seven Little Happiness" can not only act as an action play, but also be a famous action director. According to incomplete statistics, since its establishment, the Hong Kong Film Awards have awarded 20 trophies for the best martial arts director, of which 12 was awarded to Seven problem child. Since the 1990s, the Golden Horse Awards for Taiwanese films have been awarded the Best Action Director Award for eight times, but Seven problem child has won six times (note: including the times of winning prizes in collaboration with others, such as New Longmen Inn with Cheng. As for why they can all do well in the field of kung fu films and then become a generation, in the final analysis, it is related to their past being opera actors. Yu Zhanyuan is a famous martial artist in Beijing Opera, and his apprentices are mainly martial artists or online drama actors. The so-called singing, sitting and acrobatics must be proficient in everything, but when it comes to singing, Jackie Chan only has a good voice in Seven Little Happiness, while Yu Zhanyuan's requirements for this are only a little lower, and everything else must be improved. Yu Zhanyuan's daughter, Yu Suqiu, was the most popular martial arts actor in Hong Kong in 1960s, and Yu Zhanyuan himself often played a martial arts actor in Cantonese movies. With this relationship, Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan participated in the film performance very early, but compared with popular child stars such as Xiao Fangfang and Feng Baobao, Seven Little Fooks can only be regarded as a walk-on, and it is already very good to get such secondary roles as Six Overlords and Seven Overlords in Big and Small Huang Tianba. But the experience in front of the camera and the performance experience on the big screen laid the foundation for the future glory of Seven Little Happiness. Jackie Chan as the main domestic class and guidance group was one of the best martial arts guidance groups in Hong Kong movies from the 1980s to the early 1990s. Not only won many awards, but more importantly, Jackie Chan left Hong Kong with his action films, which made Hong Kong films after Bruce Lee prosper again. As a matter of fact, Jackie Chan's films in the 1980s are all works with Hong Kong characteristics, which bear a deep imprint on Hong Kong people's life and have a unique humor-different from Stephen Chow's humor, but more inclined to the performance style of early silent comedians such as Chaplin, and constantly express humorous effects with body language with the help of external things. "Home Economics Class" brought together members from Feng Kean, Mars, Lu Huiguang, Lin Guobin and Taibao, and made great contributions to Jackie Chan's films in 1980s and 1990s. Sammo Hung is Jackie Chan's brother at China Theatre Academy in Yu Zhanyuan. In the 1980s, he also had his own "Hongjiaban", such as William Chan (studying at China Theatre Academy), Feng Kean, Yuan Biao, Yuan Hua and Yuan Wu, all of whom stayed there for some time. However, the influence of Hongjiaban is far less than that of Chengjiaban. However, in 1990s, these "X family classes" gradually declined, and their martial arts instruction ability became more prominent, such as Cheng Xiaodong, Yuan Heping and Wai Tung. Donnie Yen, on the other hand, has become the backbone of a new generation of martial arts commands (sometimes called "action commands"), bringing a little bright color to the declining Hong Kong action movies, such as Legend of War Wolf and Kill Wolf. This table mainly lists the influential martial arts instructors (originally called Long Hudou) in the past half century, including many martial arts instructors who have contributed to Hong Kong action movies. For various reasons, they did not enter this chart, such as Liang Xiaolong, Tang Jili, Lin Dian and Xiong Xinxin. They often go to Hollywood to provide bright colors for their action movies. Taishan Beidou, a well-known martial arts instructor in Yuan Heping, has a tough style and pays attention to one stroke and one style. Yuan Heping has been practicing martial arts with his father since childhood; In his early years, he worked as an extra actor and martial artist in the Hong Kong film circle. 1970 became the martial arts director of Crazy Black Boy for the first time. Later, he often cooperated with director Wu Siyuan and also directed martial arts in Shaw. 1978, Yuan Heping first directed the kung fu comedy "Snake-shaped Diaoshou", which made him famous. Later, he made Drunken Boxing, which made him more famous. The Matrix series, Charlie Hebdo, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Kill Bill 1 and 2 have made him famous in the world film industry and become the most famous martial arts instructor in the world at present. His martial arts design pays attention to the fist to the flesh, the virtual to the real. Huang Feihong's classic action designs, such as "A Man Should Strive for Self-improvement", "Three Fortunes in Thailand and Zhang Chi", "Jason Wu Hero", "Kung Fu", "Huo Yuanjia" and "Banquet", are as follows: In "A Man Should Strive for Self-improvement", he had a contest with a real person from Jiugong on the cult altar, kicked the real person from the sky to the ground at the height of the worse gate, and then softened his body to remove the white silk from his waist, and then recorded it. This film won Yuan Heping an Academy Award for Best Director. Donnie Yen Donnie Yen studied martial arts and piano with his mother since childhood. In Boston's Chinatown, young Donnie Yen never misses every kung fu movie. Donnie Yen, a member of Yuan Jiaban, is the most influential martial arts coach in the world after Yuan Heping. He has made great achievements as an actor, director and martial arts director. He won the Hong Kong Film Awards twice for his films "A Thousand Machines Changed" and "Killing Wolves", and his martial arts films showed China's tenacious martial arts and martial arts virtue with real kung fu. Under the careful care of Donnie Yen, young actors who have no experience in action movies have become powerful "Kung Fu Masters", which also shows that China's film production is becoming more and more professional, and China Kung Fu, which combines wisdom and martial arts, will show more and more advantages in action movies. With the practical and ruthless action design, Donnie Yen has a tendency to become the first finger in China after Yuan Heping. His action design not only pays attention to the rigor of martial arts, the scientific nature of actual combat, but also is full of fashionable and modern simplicity. The Blade Warrior 2 he designed has submitted a commercial guarantee to Hollywood producers. The United States has Storm Fighter, and Japan has Ghost Warrior 3, Secret Service Warrior, Shura Yukime and Charlie Hebdo. Ching-Ying Lam and Hongkong famous action actor and martial arts coach. Born in 1952, he studied Peking Opera performance in master Ju-hua Fen's troupe as a child, and later entered the film circle as a martial artist and martial arts director with good skills. After years of development in the film industry, Ching-Ying Lam finally became popular in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia in the mid-1980s with the image of maoshan taoist. With a film about maoshan taoist catching zombies during the Republic of China, he later made many zombie films, which was affirmed by the audience. /kloc-started to be a martial arts instructor at the age of 0/9. Brother Tangshan (who cooperated with Han Yingjie in 197 1 and was personally invited by Bruce Lee) was his first film to be a martial arts instructor, and he played a role in the film (it can be clearly seen in the film). Since then, he has made many films as a martial artist, such as Fu Gui Train (1986). He is one of the backbones of the famous Hongjiaban, and once participated in all the films of Hongjiaban as a martial arts finger. I heard that he and Billy Chan used to be Bruce Lee's right-hand man. When Bruce Lee was filming martial arts, he would rather not turn on his cell phone without him. In addition to the Raptors crossing the river, Bruce Lee also starred in movies with him as a martial arts director. Ching-Ying Lam is good at "shooting", and his actions can satisfy Bruce Lee. Over time, when you have a sense of satisfaction, you will have a peaceful mind, and trust will arise. Jackie Chan Jackie Chan is the most famous kung fu star in the international film industry. Almost all the movements in his films were carefully designed by the adult class he led, and he also set a record of winning the Hong Kong Film Awards for the best martial arts direction seven times. Jackie Chan is a martial artist from Beijing Opera, so the actions in his films pay great attention to the design of scenes, and the scenes of group fights draw lessons from the martial arts dramas on the Beijing Opera stage. In addition, he also combined movements with acrobatics to produce humorous viewing effects. Representative works "Plan A", "Never admit defeat" and "Miracle" classic action design: In the sequel to "Plan A", Jackie Chan and Lin Wei escape from pirates and are handcuffed and locked together. When you run away, you don't think so. You climb over the fence and the wall, and your body keeps colliding, which is full of danger. In order to resist the enemy's attack, Jackie Chan used things around him as weapons such as axes and benches to fight back, but Lin Wei couldn't help adding chaos. Although they were in a mess, they finally got out of danger safely. Watching this passage is like watching a humorous acrobatic performance, but it can't help but remind people of the wonderful "adventure" in the Beijing opera Trident. Sammo Hung In the golden age of modern Kung Fu movies in Hong Kong, the star-studded Kung Fu comedy "Five-Star Lucky Star" directed by Sammo Hung led the trend. Hong Jiaban, led by him, has formed a unique style in many kung fu films with tough and majestic movements. Compared with classmate Jackie Chan's humorous acrobatic fighting, his movements pay more attention to strength and fierceness. Classic action design of Five Lucky Stars series, China's First Knife, and the Dragon Slayer: In Lucky Star in Summer, Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung each fought for a kung fu master, but Jackie Chan was shot earlier, which was hard to resist. At this moment, it happened that Sammo Hung defeated one of his men, so he fought with the master instead of Jackie Chan. The two men are hard-bridged and hard-horse, and their moves are tough and powerful, and there are few fancy. Finally, Sammo Hung quickly turned 360 degrees and kicked the enemy out of the room with a heavy leg. The master was stunned by the blow. This passage uses slow mirrors and repeated flashbacks to highlight the effect of the enemy being kicked by heavy legs, which makes people look ready to move. Yuan Kui, Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung are all members of the "7 Up" of Yu Zhanyuan Theatre Company. The action style is sharp and smooth, and the photography angle is extremely novel. Like Yuan Heping, this is a real route from boxing to meat, but unless you are an expert, it is not easy to see the difference between them. However, due to the different budget and special effects of the film, it has different effects. After 90' s, he cooperated with Jet Li, specially designed movements for him, and played Jet Li's agile and natural skill. Later, he entered Hollywood and made great achievements. His works include Dragon Pool and Tiger Cave, Savior and Life Express. Jet Li's films, such as Fatal Romeo, Kiss of the Dragon and Savior, which have been released in the United States, are all directed by him. Masterpieces: Kung Fu Emperor Fang Shiyu, Five Ancestors of New Shaolin, Bodyguard, Hot Blood: The Last Vampire, Letter to Dad, Shushan, Sunset Angel, Red Cliff, Life and Death Fighting, Passion Sage. The super policeman in Tang Jili's masterpiece Never Give Up, China Strike Force, Yuan Bin Xinlongmen Inn, one of the action directors, and the martial arts director of the Lion King's hegemony. Later, he directed The Wind of Huang Feihong, which is more realistic than Cheng Xiaodong's, but less aesthetic and more flexible. He also participated in the action design of a series of modern gangster films such as Du's works "Two Only Live One" and "True Hero", and served as the action director in the CCTV drama "the legendary swordsman". His real fame began with his collaboration with Tsui Hark in the Huang Feihong series-playing the martial arts finger in The Lion King, The Wind of the Kings and The Dragon City. However, apart from The Lion King for hegemony, the other two Huang Feihong films he designed are of average level, but the martial arts film Broken Knife with Tsui Hark, an alternative style, is somewhat fierce. Action design Action design (action director) is the soul of an action film. Its position is heavy, and it can only be equal to the director in many divisions of labor such as clothing, photography, art and editing, also known as "director". In addition, action design has also experienced different titles such as martial arts guidance, martial arts design and action guidance. As action movies gradually enter the international market and have an impact, what kind of foreign language titles should be born in action design? At present, the most common English translation is Martial, a martial arts instructor, and the modern English-Chinese dictionary explains it as adj. War and military. Martial arts should also have extended meanings such as "martial arts", "martial arts" and "fighting". I remember a video interview with Pei-Pei Cheng, Shaw's "Queen of Martial Arts Films". In Zheng Zaiying's answer, martial arts and martial arts movies are used more than once. They are used to refer to martial arts, kung fu and martial arts movies. Martial arts is a fixed combination, which refers to all kinds of martial arts. The literal translation of Wushu instruction is Wushu instruction. The name "martial arts instructor" is the most frequently used and should be the most authoritative English translation of action instruction. I think this word just contains artistry, and the mention of director can highlight the humanistic value of martial arts and the important position of action design as a profession, so this translation is also easy to be accepted by China filmmakers. Unfortunately, such an all-inclusive translation only appears in Hong Kong films. It is estimated that overseas, it is difficult to find the special glory of the director in action design. For example, Yuan Heping, Yuan Kui, Lin Dian and Donnie Yen, the most popular action designers in the Chinese world, are not even qualified to appear in the titles of Charlie Hebdo I and II, The Matrix I, II and III, Spider-Man II, X-Men II and Blade III. It is estimated that Hollywood will not allow a China person to compete with the film director on the creative staff, and openly call him a martial arts director. In the eyes of European and American filmmakers, they seem to be more willing to accept another understanding. There is a title about action design called stunt coordinator, which just proves this point. This translation appeared at the end of steven seagal's 2003 work The Belly of the Beast. The action director is China Cheng Xiaodong, who is also a film director. Although martial arts is a new stunt, the whole movie is a typical Hollywood movie, which was invested by Columbia Pictures. Special effects, modern English-Chinese dictionaries have three explanations: 1, (dangerous) special effects, special effects; 2. An eye-catching move, a stunt in an advertisement; 3, stunts, aerobatics. Besides, Coordinate means "to coordinate".-Eh, it is the coordinator. As a result, action design has a new meaning-stunt coordinator. It can be clearly felt that in Hollywood's view, the martial arts moves added to the film are just gimmicks, and they are just gimmicks. So far, the most interesting translation may appear in the spy in Hong Kong. Action design is actually translated into action choreography here, and the explanation in Modern English-Chinese Dictionary is: choreographer and dancer. It is indeed unprecedented to understand action as dance and translate action design into dance designer and choreographer, and its bold and innovative significance can be seen. However, it is no wonder that the action designer and director of this film is the famous Cheng Xiaodong. In the film industry, Cheng has always had an indissoluble bond with three words, that is, "Wu Dance", and he himself is also called "Wu Dancer". In this way, it is appropriate for this translation to appear here, but its limitations are self-evident. Because ask the world, except Cheng Xiaodong, who dares to turn China martial arts into dance? Bruce Lee's performance features can be summarized as follows: beautiful chained legs+frivolous gestures+strange birdsong. There are many famous martial artists who once regarded themselves as a copy of Bruce Lee on the screen. The most famous is He Zongdao, Taiwan Province Province. When Bruce Lee was alive, he began to act in movies. Later, I found that his chin was very similar to Bruce Lee's, and I came from a martial arts family and was good at martial arts and taekwondo, so I portrayed him as "the second in Bruce Lee". The first dragon-like movie he made was called The New Death Game. At the beginning of the film, there are a lot of films about Bruce Lee's life starring him, including Raptors and Tangshan Jeet Kune Do, the most outstanding of which is the director's legend of bruce lee, and other sequels related to Bruce Lee's starring role, such as Jingwumen, Boxing Eagle Claw Skill and Wing Chun Mobile. In addition, Huang Jianlong of Macau appeared in Tower of Death, Finger of Boxing and Finger of Jason Wu under the stage name of Lv Xiaolong. In the early 1990s, he played the leading role in the mainland version of Jingwumen's Great Wall Armageddon, which was a sensation. In addition, there is the Korean master Tang Long who plays Bruce Lee body double in The Game of Death. Jack Li, Philippines; Liang Xiaolong, Dragon and Li Xiuxian. In the 1990s, the hero in the American version of legend of bruce lee seemed to get by. In the new century, the first mainland movie star who visited the dragon was born. He is Shi Tianlong, a martial artist who starred in "Jingwumen from the Dead". 1, Jeff 2, Ma Yucheng 3, Kou Zhanwen 4, Dong Wei 5, Cao Rong, etc.: Yuan Kui, Yuan Bin,. Lin Dian. Gu dezhao, Xue chuncan, Cai Li and other Jeff 1978 ~ 1993 trained in Shandong Institute of Sports Technology (Shandong Professional Wushu Team) and Shanghai Institute of Physical Education respectively. In the meantime, he participated in many national Wushu competitions and won the first place in the national Wushu championship, the second place in mantis boxing and the second place in sparring. He won the champion of Jiujiebian and Manta Boxing in the National Wushu Congress, the champion of stick, Nanquan, Jiujiebian and Manta Boxing in the Shanghai National Games, and the first gold medal in Wushu competition. In the World Jason Wu Wushu Competition, he won the first place in cudgel and the third place in mantis boxing, and was awarded the title of Wu Ying (Master). Ma Yucheng action director Ma Yucheng recently took a photo of a Hong Kong martial arts coach. In his early years, he studied under the martial arts master Cheng Xiaodong. His qualifications in Hong Kong martial arts are not too high, but he has developed rapidly in recent years. The martial arts he directed inherited the style of Cheng Xiaodong's martial arts dance, with graceful movements, strong sense of strength, fierceness and grandeur, especially the visual design of multiplayer fighting is considerable. His masterpiece "Flying Dance", the martial arts design at that time caused a great sensation in South Korea. All the masters hung Weiya under the eaves and climbed the wall together, and the visual effect was amazing, which showed that Ma Yu's success was far-reaching. Without Ma Yucheng, South Korea would not have made such a martial arts film. Kou Zhanwen joined the Beijing Wushu Team on September 1983, and he is the other disciples of Jet Li and Jason Wu. Film and television drama started from 1988. And served as martial arts guidance and action guidance in many film and television works. I joined the dream boat star football team and am a football fan. Action director Kou Zhanwen recently took a photo of Dong Wei, a famous Hong Kong martial arts director, film director and former wireless TV artist. Dong Wei went to Hong Kong to settle down when he was young. He studied Peking Opera from Ju-hua Fen and northern martial arts. 1965 began to work as a film actor and body body double. 198 1 switch to wireless TV for drama. Later, I mainly did film martial arts guidance and action design. Action director Dong Wei recently took a photo of Cao Rong. He comes from a family class. His co-stars include Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Jet Li. With the original and wonderful martial arts design in One Dan Chu Xing, he won the Best Action Guidance Award in the 34th Taiwan Golden Horse Award. Cao Rong once played the Monkey King in the TV series The Journey to the West, and won the 34th Taiwan Golden Horse Award and the Best Action Guidance Award.
