[出走地平線：Quasimodo]
Flattening The Curve: Quasimodo

我只拍過一齣劇情片《海灘的一天》。

他們便頒發金馬獎最佳攝影給我。

怎可能呢？

我一竅不通。他們怎會不知道？

但怎樣學習得比較好？

我曾經試過報讀法國電影學校，但對方沒有取錄我。

多得法國朋友的穿針引線，我被請去幫一個女學生導演的處女作《黑與白》掌鏡。

我不懂法語，但女導演Claire Devers似乎不在意。

她在片場經常全速用法語指揮大局，我大部份時間都不明白她說甚麼，而且她常把 “Quasimodo，Quasimodo”掛在咀邊。

我以為自己一直在拍一齣同志黑白片，不是重拍《鐘樓駝俠》。那Quasimodo是怎麼一回事？電影裡沒有駝子，在劇本也找不到Quasimodo這個字。（Quasimodo，加西莫多原是 《鐘樓駝俠》主角的名字）

我當時的法國女友Gabrielle也一頭霧水，所以有天她來片場看個究竟。

Gabrielle觀察導演不出十分鐘，竟然捧腹大笑，把我拉到一旁。「Quasimodo不是一個角色」她解釋「這齣戲也不是《歌聲魅影》實驗版，更不是《鐘樓駝俠》。」

「那甚麼是Quasimodo?」我問。

Gabrielle向我派定心丸。「你的導演接受過古典教育，時不時想賣弄一下。『Quasimodo』 是拉丁文，導演跟她的同學從小學便學會了。她說『Quasimodo』，其實就像我們想說，你知的……差不多啦。這個字就像我們想帶出……自己沒法子用詞語表達實際想說甚麼的意思。」

I had shot only one feature film “That day on the Beach”.

They gave it Golden Horse Best Cinematography award.

How could that be?

I knew nothing. How come they didn’t notice?

But how best to get to know something?

I tried to get into French film school. They wouldn’t have me.

But French friends pulled a few strings and I was asked to photograph a woman student director’s first film "Noir et Blanc".

I didn’t speak French, but director Claire Devers didn’t seem to notice.

She kept talking full speed ahead giving directions I mostly couldn't follow, and “ Quasimodo , Quasimodo” was her signature phrase.

I thought we were making a black and white gay film, not a remake of The Hunchback of Notre-Dame. So what’s all this Quasimodo stuff ? There are no hunchbacks in the cast and I can’t find “ Quasimodo ” in the script . (Quasimodo was the main protagonist of the The Hunchback of Notre-Dame. ）

French girlfriend Gabrielle couldn’t work it out either. So she came by to sort it out.

After ten minutes on set listening and watching my director, she burst out laughing, then took me aside. Quasimodo is not a character ” she explained “ this is not an experimental version of Phantom of the Opera and the set is definitely no Notre-Dame. ”

“ So what’s Quasimodo ? ” I asked.

Gabrielle re-assures me: “ Your director has had a Classic education, and she likes to show it off. ‘ Quasimodo ’ is Latin, which her class of students studied since primary school. She says “Quasimodo” when most of us would say something like, you know … actually means MORE OR LES. It’s when we say something like…. like when we can’t quite find the words to express what we really want to say. “

實際發生的情況 VS 外人所看到的情況。

昨天我發布了跳水影片，這似乎使人們感到惱火。許多人認為這樣的發文是煽動危險的行為。
“很糟糕的示範，無知的人會跟著模仿然後發生意外而死”
為什麼總是別人表現得不負責任？
從來沒有人評論說“我可能會反覆跳水而死去？”
為什麼別人如此不信任？
是什麼讓您的判斷比其他所有人的判斷要好得多？

人們不必擔心觀看影片然後再重複播放。如果您相信這樣的人的存在，那麼“玩命關頭”的電影會讓您太害怕不敢離開家了，以免擔心遇到魯莽的駕駛員。

該影片用手機高影格率（慢動作）拍攝。長時間的飛行使它看起來像是跳得很高，但實際高度只有6.5公尺高。
雖然不是特別高，但是如果您背部落水或腹部落水，這種高度可能還是會覺得很痛。
我會知道，是因為我不擅長做後空翻，但無論如何我還是會嘗試。肚子落水上並不是致命的，但這也不是一件好事。
這就是為什麼我影片裡跳水方式都是伸直雙腳，雙手臂擺放在身體兩側。實際上，這是一個很好的動作示範。

我總是告訴人們在跳水之前檢查水的深度，並確保水中沒有障礙物。
但是當我們說“跳前先看一看”時，我們真正的意思是“在你行動前要先思考”。

爬上平台有風險嗎？
我要從穩定平台上跳下來嗎？
我的計劃著陸區在哪裡？
著陸區中是否有人或物體？
水的深度適合從這個高度跳嗎？
跳躍時我會在空中做什麼？
我計劃著陸的方向是什麼？
我可以在這些條件下游泳嗎？
跳水後如何離開水面？
我是否需要任何其他設備，例如手套或救生衣或頭盔？
尋問跳水區附近有人嗎？他們知道我在跳水嗎？

這些都不是複雜的問題，也不需要任何技術培訓。這只是基本常識。大多數人無需考慮即可自動執行此操作。

以上並不是特別危險。人們在人身安全方面通常是安全和負責的，有幾個重要例外。真正的安全提示在這裡：

1）跳懸崖時切勿飲酒。
您會驚訝於自然界發生了多少次與酒精有關的事故。

2）切勿向任何人施壓，讓他們嘗試自己不舒服的特技。
如果某人感到害怕，那是因為他們缺乏必要的技能或經驗。這會增加了風險。要教導/不要強迫或欺負霸凌

3）永遠知道你的極限在哪。
採取嬰兒的步驟。在不諮詢經驗豐富的人的情況下，請勿嘗試超出您的經驗水平的事情。忽略任何給您施加壓力或激你的人。他們不會是好朋友。

4）不要試圖做任何愚蠢的事情來打動一個女孩。
這不值得。在接受調查的10位女性中，有9位偏好沒有頭部受傷的男性。

現在去實驗在河邊玩得開心。嘗試去懸崖跳水。盡可能地爬高。在這過程，如果您在任何時候階段感到不舒服時，可以慢慢後退並從較低的地方跳下來，或者根本就不要跳。
和您信任的朋友一起去，並互相觀察注意對方。
首先檢查天氣。提前準備所需的裝備。您可能需要一個漂浮裝備(救生衣或浮標等）。如果您發現之後沒有足夠的裝備，則不需要嘗試去做未做好準備的事。選擇準備好的一天再去玩。

按照這些基本步驟進行操作，您很快就會意識到歇斯底里並不是實現水安全的正確方法。但知識教育和準備好卻是安全的方式。

*跳躍高度是根據h = 1 / 2gt ^ 2，t = 1.154s + -0.004s（240fps）從跳躍頂點確定的

What really happens VS what people see.

Yesterday I posted this which seemed to rile people up. Many people think posting like this is inciting dangerous behavior. "Bad Demonstration. Ignorant people will follow this and die". Why is it always other people who are behaving irresponsibly. No ever ever comments "I might try to repeat this and die" Why is there so much distrust of other people? What makes your judgement so much better than everyone else's?

People aren't at risk from watching a video and then trying to repeat it. If you believed people like that existed then the "fast and the furious "movies would make you too scared to leave the house for fear of reckless drivers.

The video was filmed at a high frame rate (slow motion). Long airtime gives it the appearance of being a very high jump, but it's only 6.5 meters. While not particularly high, this is still high enough to be painful if you landed on your back or stomach. I know, because I'm not good at doing backflips, but I still try anyway. Landing on your stomach isn’t fatal, but it’s not fun either. That's why I recommend jumping feet first, hands in, as seen in the video. It's actually quite a good demonstration.

I always tell people to check water depth and ensure there are no obstructions before jumping. But when we say "look before you jump" what we really mean is "Think before you act".

Is it risky to climb up to the platform?
Is the platform I am jumping from stable?
Where is my planned landing zone?
Are there any people or objects in the landing zone?
Is the depth of the water suitable for jumping from this height?
What will I do in the air while jumping?
What is my planned body orientation for landing?
Can I swim in these conditions?
How will I exit the water after jumping?
Do I need any additional equipment such as gloves or a life jacket?
Are there people nearby? Do they know I am jumping?

None of these are complicated questions and none require any technical training. This is just basic common sense. Most people do this automatically, without even having to think about it.

The above isn't especially dangerous. People are generally safe and responsible when it comes to their personal safety with a few important exceptions. The real safety tips are down here:

1) Never consume alcohol while cliff jumping. You'd be surprised how many accidents in nature involve alcohol.

2) Never pressure anyone into attempting a stunt they are not comfortable with. If someone is scared, it's because they lack the requisite skill or experience. This increases risk. Teach. Don't tease .

3) Know your limits. Take baby steps. Don't attempt something far above your experience level without consulting someone with more experience. Ignore anyone who is pressuring you. They're not being good friends.

4) Don't do anything stupid to impress a girl. It's not worth it. 9 out of 10 women surveyed preferred men without head injuries.

Now go out to the river and have some fun. Go cliff jumping. Climb as high as you feel comfortable. And if at any time if you feel uncomfortable, just back down and jump from somewhere lower, or not at all. Go with friends that you trust, and watch out for each other. Check the weather first. Prepare equipment you need in advance. You may need a flotation device. If you realize you don’t have enough equipment later, you don’t need to attempt anything you are not prepared for. Just come back and play another day.

Follow these basic steps and you will soon realize that hysteria isn’t the proper approach to water safety. Knowledge and preparation is.

從中亞飛到西亞，第一個抵達的城市就是亞塞拜然的首都 Baku 巴庫 🌃 這座用石油建起來的城市非常摩登，被孤獨星球列為全世界前十名夜生活的城市🍸

這裡的老城區在 2000年被譽為世界遺產👀 古城外面有許多超值餐廳，要不是風太大（眼睛一直進沙，被吹進泥火山等）🌬️ 不然真的會想在這裡待久一點！難怪這城市名字的意思是「風之城」😆

你們知道嗎？巴庫是全世界海拔最低的首都！位於全世界最大的湖泊 Caspian Sea 裏海旁邊，這座城市建在海拔28米以下😲 其實從哈薩克是可以搭船橫跨這座湖泊，只是沒有商業船隻，只有貨船🛳️ 再加上貨船只有滿了才會開船，所以時間上不好配合😂

這座城市是用石油錢建造而成的💰 誇張到就是連市區旁的停車場都有好幾個機器在產油😲 可惜政府沒有把石油錢的分給人民... 當然這又是另一個故事了...

另外巴庫的土耳其浴也非常有名，可惜我們沒有去體驗🛀 畢竟幾天前在哈薩克已經刷過了，四天內再刷一次全身我怕皮脫落啊！😂

其實巴庫還蠻多可以介紹的，大家還是先看一下照片吧😁 另外推薦的旅行社以及餐廳在下面唷！

Landed in Baku- the capital of Azerbaijan to start our 14 day quick trip around the Caucasus🌍

This capital is the lowest capital in the world, 28m below the sea level🏝️ It is also known as the "city of winds"🌬️ Due to its harsh wind that almost blew me over several times😬 Including into a mud volcano 🌋

Situated along the Caspian Sea, it was cool to watch the sunset at the world's largest lake🏞️

There are actually quite a few things to see in Baku, with its old town being inscribed as UNESCO in 2000😊

The city itself is also very modern and fabulous food scenes😋 Lonely Planet actually ranked Baku as the world's top 10 destination for urban night life🍸

The city was built on oil money💰 It was crazy that they just drilling oil left, right and center! Even in middle of carpark 🚗 Obviously whether the money was distributed to its citizens is another story 😅

Overall being the largest city in Caucasus, Baku did not disappoint 😆 Other than the crazy wind and hot weather on last night, I must admit I really enjoyed it here😁

One disappointment was probably that we missed out on an authentic hammam experience here in Baku🛀 But I don't think I could do two in a week cz I had one in Kazakhstan few days ago😂

Quite a lot to write about so I guess everyone should enjoy the photos first 😂

#日本網吧收費 #窮遊北海道 #北海道札幌2020

Hello大家好, 我叫阿Tsar, Hello, everyone.

今日同大家介紹是日本窮遊的其中一個方法 Today I will talk about 1 way of budget travel

就是網吧啦, 300 yen入會費, 即是21.5港元 Internet cafe, 300 yen membership fee, which is 21.5 HKD

過夜一晚, 我選擇住了九個小時, 2145 Yen連税, 即是174HKD Overnight, I chose to stay for nine hours, 2145 Yen with tax, which is 174HKD

加起來200HKD有找, 住在札幌狸小路市中心一晚 Stay one night in downtown Sapporo Tanukikoji for less than 200HKD

其實我機場附近是有酒店住的，不過我在狸小路如果行到得太夜返酒店 In fact, I stayed in hotel near the airport, but I traveled quite late at Tanukikoji

........

在狸小路一帶, 其實最少有五、六間網吧可以給大家選擇 In Tanukikoji, there are actually at least five or six Internet cafes for you to choose from.

我上了三間, 最後選擇了一間在狸小路4丁目入面 I went to 3 internet cafes, and finally chose one at the 4th street of Tanukikoji.

24小時開放的驚安之殿堂隔離, 半夜肚餓還可以留下有幾間便利店 Next to 24-hour open Donki n a few convenience stores downstairs of this internet cafe

網絡咖啡室，簡稱網咖，在90年代興起，在日本已經非常普遍， Internet cafes have emerged in the 1990s and have become very common in Japan.

香港人身嬌肉貴, 好少會到網吧過夜, 不過我覺得這些都是日本生活體驗之一 HK pals are rarely overnight in Internet cafes, but I think these are one of the Japanese life experiences

狸小路酒店收費最平三百多HKD都有 There are hotels charge 300plus in HKD at Tanukikoji

不過網吧收費還要平一半 However, Internet cafe charges are still half price cheaper

而且它有最少三個小時的收費，假如你女人去附近shopping And it has a charge of at least 3 hours, if your woman goes shopping nearby

男士們就可以上來這間網吧休息一下，一邊等 Men can come to this internet cafe and rest while waiting

所以不一定要來這裏過夜的, 但是網吧24小時營業, So not a must to stay overnight, but Internet cafes are open 24 hours,

任何時間想去都可以, 不用做booking, 話上就上 No need to book in advance, u can come here at anytime

我拍片回來給大家看看, 等大家窮遊的時候又多一個選擇 I just want to show u more option for budget travel

這種網吧的形式, 幾乎全日本都是這樣做法 This format of Internet cafe is widely used in almost all in Japan.

我廿幾歲的時候, 曾經上過台灣網吧過夜 I overnight an internet cafe in Taiwan when I was 20 something

亦去過其他國家的網吧, 但是沒有過夜 Also visited Internet cafes in other countries, but did not stay overnight
.........

食落真是非常之好味喎, 入面除了有一塊豚肉之外 Very yummy with the pork inside

還有相當多的醬料, 味道一流 Taste is superb with different sauces inside

這裏上網嘅速度, 亦都好快, 睡不著可以睇片打機都得 The internet speed here is also very fast. If you can't sleep, many things to entertain.

到你check out之後, 亦可以行一行驚安之殿堂 After you check out, you can also go to the Donki next door

我就在驚安買了一對鞋墊, 非常之舒服透氣 I bought these insoles in Donki very comfortable and breathable.

因為我還有好多地方要去, 大家睇完我條片之後 As I had many places to go that day

以後去北海道, 就可以更加精明消費 Going to Hokkaido in the future can make smarter consumption after watching my video

網吧的運作收費模式, 全日本通用 Internet cafe operating formats are similar throughout Japan

昨天我跟一班junior傾計, 有個junior話 Yesterday I talked with my juniors, one said:

援交女part time girlfriend post上網 Part time girlfriend post online

話一是给錢、一是给口罩找數, 一篤一個口罩 Customers can either pay in cash or in surgical(anti virus) mask

我當然不知是什麼意思啦, 不過我平日都有睇新聞 I don't clearly know how they charge. But I've heard from news somehow

我就問番佢, 咁顏射幾多個口罩呀?成班junior笑到死下死下 Then I asked him back for how many masks do they charge bukkake? The juniors LMAO.

非常時期要注意個人衛生, 召妓這麼埋身肉搏的活動 Attention should be paid to personal hygiene during recent times.

大家都時要注意健康啦, 我在這裏講這些,都是開下玩笑輕鬆下啫 Everyone must pay attention to your well-being, I am just joking for saying BS　here for relax.

睇咗當去咗, 又可以和朋友同事親戚多個話題 DO u enjoy my video tour? Share with people u know for more topics.

記得按通知制, 睇完影片留個表情符號以示支持 Remember to press the notification bell, leave an emoji to show support before u leave

功德無量, 我們下一條片再見,88 Thx a million n with that said until next time.88!

請用片右下角調4K睇片。
