He may be an old hand in making films but
Jingle Ma is still young at heart.
At one point during his interview with bc, veteran movie man Jingle Ma announces, “I don’t want to talk too much, I don’t want to explain, I don’t have any time!” Rather than signal the end of our conversation, however, those words are meant to give a sense of the working style, philosophy and attitude of someone who has been the cinematographer for over 60 feature films and the director of a dozen (including the upcoming Playboy Cops), in the little more than three decades since he entered the local film industry.
The words provide one reason Ma has continued to work as a cinematographer even though he made the move up the command chain to become a movie director with Hot War (1998). The award-winning director of photography of Peter Chan’s much beloved Comrades, Almost a Love Story (1996) and Mabel Cheung’s nostalgic City of Glass (1998) has such a clear vision of the visuals he wants and how to create them that if someone else were to take them on in his film, he becomes distracted from the script, actors and drama and finds himself thinking, “It’s been a long time. Why isn’t the lighting here? Don’t waste my time!” and “Come on, okay, okay, one light here is enough!”
The longer one talks with Ma, the more one gets the sense that cinematography is his true vocation. It is not just that he openly states, “I really enjoy cinematography. It’s really good work. It’s professional.” Rather, he is also so very happy, eager even, to share the story of how he became a cinematographer when, some years ago, he came across a “gweilo” cinematographer and a director shooting a commercial in Tsim Sha Tsui and was thoroughly impressed by the sight of it all.
Ma’s personal path into the movie industry has been long and somewhat winding. Starting out as a hairstylist by day and drummer for a band by night, he first became a cinematographer for TV commercials and only later feature films – with some time spent as a window dresser to boot! He says it all served its purpose in the end, though. For example, the five months he spent in window displays turned out to be good practical training for cinematography, as he picked up quite a bit about colour matching and what constitutes art sense. And over the course of his more extended stint in TV commercials, he was taught a lot about lighting by industry insiders from Australia, England and America.
Since Ma continues to work on the cinematography of the films he directs, all that hard-earned knowledge is still useful. At the same time though, since he made his directorial debut in 1998, Ma has also had to devote a significant amount of time on set to cultivating such intense relations with his actors that he says, “The actor and the director, it seems like they marry and fall in love!” Furthermore, his interactions with his cast has had to include teaching some of them how to act!
With a laugh, Ma recalls how the first time he worked with Shawn Yue, the lead actor of Playboy Cops, he found that through nervousness Yue over-acted. But after gaining the young man’s trust and pointing out to him that, unlike acting on stage, “the movie has a lot of big close-ups. So you don’t need to exaggerate!” Yue’s acting became very good. And as a bonus, not only is he tall and handsome, says Ma, but his knowledge of martial arts helped in that most important factor of Hong Kong movies, the star’s action.
Their latest film together, Playboy Cops, was originally envisioned as a straight comedy about “two rich cops and
how they show off their money”. But when Yue was paired up with what Ma sees as another very good (and eye-catching) actor in popular Mainlander Aloys Chen Kun, the director of romantic dramas like Fly Me To Polaris (1999) and Happy Birthday (2006) decided to add drama, romance and action to the movie.
“Maybe I’m getting older and I think my fans, [those who] like my movies, they’re getting old too!” Ma muses, in describing how he decided to make plot changes and additions so that the movie also shows how the two main characters become good friends. And seeing that a lot of his fans are female, Ma decided to add a love triangle which called on local actress Linda Chung – “a nice girl, like from school, very clever, very pretty!” – to play the ex-girlfriend of one of the cops who is the current object of affection of the other!
As Ma points out, “There were no love triangles in my movies before. In my previous movies, it was very straightforward. No more!” And he again cites growing older as the reason he now thinks more complicated storylines are better than simple ones. Yet, in response to my query why he has gone with such a young cast for Playboy Cops, he says with a twinkle, “I’m a young guy!”
Then on a more reflective note, he says, “Sometimes, [I am] very mature; sometimes it seems like I’m a kid.” Put that together with his obvious delight in confounding people who think they have him pegged as a director (how can a single individual be behind a diverse body of work that ranges from the breezy Summer Holiday (2000) to the serious Goodbye Mr Cool (2001)?) and what Jingle Ma comes across as, more than anything else, is a self-described happy guy who remains young and playful at heart even though thoroughly experienced in terms of what life and the film industry have to offer.
Playboy Cops will open in local theatres on February 28.

他可能是一个老手,在拍电影,但
顺口溜马是还年轻的心。
有一次他在接受采访时,与卑诗省,资深电影人顺口溜马宣布, "我不想说得太多,我不想解释,我也没有任何时间! " ,而不是信号结束我们的谈话,不过,这些话都是为了给意识,工作作风,理念和态度的人,一直是摄影超过60部故事片和总的十多位(包括即将举行的花花公子警察) ,在小三年多以来,几十年来,他进入了当地的电影业。
字提供的一个原因,马继续工作,作为摄影师,尽管他作出的举动了指挥链,以成为一个电影导演与热战( 1998年) 。屡获殊荣的摄影导演的陈可辛的许多敬爱的同志们,几乎是一个爱情故事( 1996年)和张美宝的怀旧市玻璃( 1998 )有这样一个明确的愿景的视觉效果,他希望和如何创造他们如果别人要加以留意,在他的电影,他成为分心,从剧本,演员及戏剧发现自己的思想, "这是一个很长的时间。为什么不是灯光在这里吗?不要浪费我的时间! " , "来吧,好了,好了,一架轻型这里是够了! "
从长远讲,与马,越人们得到的意义上的摄影是他真正的职业。这并不单只是因为他公开声明: "我很喜欢摄影。它的真正良好的工作态度。它的专业" ,而他也非常高兴,渴望,甚至,分享的故事,他如何成为一个摄影师的时候,若干年前,他看到一个"鬼佬" ,摄影师和导演拍摄商业尖沙咀尖沙咀与被彻底印象深刻,而忽略了这一切。
马的个人路径进入电影界已久,并有点清盘。开始表现为一个发型师,白天和鼓手一阶之夜,他第一次成为摄影电视广告,稍后才会故事片-有一些时间花在作为一个窗口,柜子开机!他说,它的所有服务,其目的在末端。举例来说, 5个月,他花了在窗口显示出要善于向实践培训,为摄影,因为他拿起了不少一点颜色匹配和什么构成的艺术感。及以上的过程中,他更延长她在电视广告中,他教了很多有关照明业内人士分别来自澳洲,英国和美国。
自从马继续工作,对电影艺术的电影,他指示,一切都是辛苦赚来的知识仍然是有用的。在同一时间,虽然,因为他在导演首次在1998年,马也不得不投入大量的时间,就设置为培育这种激烈的关系,与他的演员,他说, "演员和导演,好像他们结婚,并坠入爱河! "此外,他的互动,他投下了包括教学他们中的一些人怎么做!
同笑,马回忆起他第一次与余文乐,带头演员的花花公子警察后,他发现,通过神经质岳过度行事。不过,在获得了青年男子的信任,并指出,在他看来,不像代理舞台上, "电影中有很多的大近镜头。所以你无须夸大" !岳的代理变得非常好。并作为奖金,不仅是他高大英俊表示,马,但他的知识,武术,帮助在这一最重要的因素是香港的电影,明星的行动。
他们最新的电影,花花公子警察,原本设想为直喜剧"两个丰富的警察和
他们如何炫耀自己的钱" 。但是,当岳两个与什么马视为另一个很好(和醒目)演员在流行外省阿洛伊斯陈坤,总浪漫戏剧一样飞我北极星( 1999年)和生日快乐( 2006年)决定增加剧情片,爱情片和行动统一到这部电影。
"也许我逐渐老化,我想我的球迷, [那些]喜欢我的电影,他们年纪太大了! "马缪斯,在描述他如何决定,以使情节修改和增补,使电影,同时也是展示两个主要的特征,成为好朋友。看到了很多他的歌迷都是女性,马决定增加一个爱情三角,其中呼吁地方女主角琳达涌-"一个好女孩,想从学校,很聪明,很漂亮" ! -扮演前女友的其中的警察谁是当前的对象,感情的另!
马指出, "没有人爱三角形在我的电影。我在以前的电影,这是非常简单。不! " ,他又引用了越来越多老年人为理由,现在他认为,更复杂的故事情节是较简单的个案。然而,在回应我的质疑,为何他经历了这样的一个年轻演员为花花公子警察,他说,一个眨眼, "我对小伙子" !
那么,就更能反映说明,他说, "有时候, [我]是很成熟,有时好像我是孩子"付诸表决,连同他的喜悦显而易见,在混杂的人,认为他们有他挂为董事(怎样才能有单个人的背后,一个多元化的机构的工作,范围包括从凉风习习的夏日假期( 2000年)至严重再见先生冷静( 2001 ) ? )什么顺口溜马遇上作为,比任何事情都重要,是一个自我形容高兴家伙,他们仍然是年轻和活泼在心上,即使彻底经历而言,有什么生活和电影业有提供。
花花公子警察将公开在当地剧院2月28日。
:D

昏 
如果有来生,要做一颗树,站成永恒,没有悲欢的姿势,一半在尘土里安详,一半在风景里飞扬;一半洒落阴凉,一半沐浴阳光。非常沉默,非常骄傲,从不依靠,从不寻找。
