去年年底,莫斯科苏联美术家协会举办了电影美工师作品展览会。不仅电影的观众,就是相近的各艺术部门的大师以及艺术理论家都很少瞭解电影美工师的工作。其实,美工师在影片摄制工作中的作用是很重大的,他的创作大大地决定着一部影片的成功。在影片摄制开始时,在研究过电影剧本并和导演交谈之后,美工师便要在预备性的草图中探索处理主题的途径;他需要研究书籍与文件,选择画片材料,以便确定演员将要在其中活动的那一特定的环境。 At the end of last year, the Moscow Soviet Artists Association organized the exhibition of film artists’ works. Not only movie viewers, but also masters of various art departments and art theorists, have little understanding of the work of movie artists. In fact, the role of the artist in film production is very significant. His creation greatly determines the success of a film. At the beginning of filming, after studying the screenplay and talking to the director, the artist had to explore the ways in which the theme was handled in the preparatory sketches; he needed to study books and documents and choose the material for the picture to determine where the performer would be The specific environment of activity.
