西三电影制片厂- 落田做野
Fall field do wild

回看这半年在西三村的拍摄生活，那个频频举着手机拍摄的动作，都为了证明“人人都是问题的记录者”。透过手机摄像头，我们拍摄了一条“黑”河涌的前世今生，村里自建房的“拆”与“建”的过程；记录了菜农对“农药”的真实表态，几位独居老人轻描淡写而又沉重的生活无奈，以及几种不同的外来青年的生存状态；还目击了一次西三育英街群殴事件，抢修村民与“外来人”的关系。有时候，我们会觉得西三电影制片厂还有很多事可以做，是幸运的；有时候，我们又会觉得正在做和准备做的事像还债，因为开始的太晚了。西三电影制片厂给村民推送的29部影片并没有什么调研感和计划性，但我们会严守着一个不太愿意提及的原则，就是直面有关村子的问题。实际上，这不是一个讨村里人喜欢的态度，更多村民的想法是：支持你去做，但不会跟你一起做。而对我们来说，村民如何理解制片厂跟他们的关系，是最应该关心的。因此，几个月前，我们做了一个决定，就是把工作重心放在连结村民一起做事上，并借展览的机遇，邀约村民去拍摄深圳的一个15万人被迫迁的城中村白石洲。希望通过这样临时的集体行动，可以让我们跟村民的关系再走近一些。然后，再反身看看西三电影制片厂除了在“田野”里继续干活，还能怎么做。

关于《联合制片》

《联合制片》于2017年10月28日在圈子艺术中心开幕，此次展览共分五个部分：西三影片、西三演播室、社区实践、村民记者、观展留声。

今天，处于城市话语里的城郊村落，住民的生活及其问题，难以有真实的存活和发声空间，一切都让位于强大的消费媒体和舆论导向。这是个明摆着的、实实在在的问题。关于西三村的实践与行动方式，是希望在这个语境下，用手机摄像这个真实、便捷的低技术手段，重新夺回属于一个村子的话语权利，实践一种通道，联合村民发声。

关于村民记者

西三电影制片厂邀约近百位西三村的住民，前往深圳一个15 万人不得不离开的城中村——白石洲。他们把城中村作为珠三角居民持存的生存处境来拍摄，城中村的现实，就是西三村的现实。此次集体行动，在协同村民去面对自身处境的同时，我们还试图去践行一种“公民记者”身份：人人都是问题的记录者和参与者；并希望能够为“居民”未来参议城市生活提供一种可能的想象与讨论空间。

关于西三电影制片厂

“西三电影制片厂”不是一个艺术机构，它是生活于西三村的几个艺术家为这个村筹划的一个“电影节日”。它也是几个无权参议村子公共事务的租赁者，临时建立起来的联合集体行动，一个他们所在西三村问题的影像加工厂。他们用媒体的方式在西三村做田野，尝试让影片成为一种公共的“消息”在村里流传。

整个项目建立在第三方勘察与参议的基本立意上，在高架桥、臭水沟与高档小区所象征的多重交织的力量之间，把手机当作一种探照村子民生权益的直观工具。我们把通过手机制作出来的每个短片理解成一部真实电影的分镜，这些为生活在此处的人摄制、关于此时此刻之真实的短片，将放映在东沙桥下大排档的镶嵌影院，或是梁伯的剪发点、西三村公园的临时放映广场与民房改造的录像厅。我们希望它能够成为村民自身生存权益意识的启发性空间，以及展映社会矛盾与村民诉求的公共场所。





When looking back at the experience of taking photos for half year in the Xisan village, the frequent gesture of holding the mobile phone for shooting has proven that “everyone is the recorder of problems”. Sometimes, we feel that there are a lot of things to do for Xisan Film Production Factory, which is the luck for us; sometimes, we feel that something we're doing and we are preparing to do is like paying debts, because it's too late to start. But we will abide by a principle that we don't want to mention, that's to face the problems in village directly. In fact, it is not an attitude that the villagers like and most of the villagers hold the opinion that they will support you, but they never do it with you. Therefore, several months ago, we made a decision that we were supposed to highlight connecting villagers together and we shall take the opportunity of exhibition to invite villagers to shoot photos on Baidanzhou in Shenzhen where there are 150,000 people being forced to move on the “village” of the city. We hope to be closer to the villagers by taking such temporary and collective actions.

This is an action plan. The village in the city, there are some villagers who want to tell the truth of their living and subsistence in public. For them, it might be not easy to survive and speak because of the consumption of media and direction of the public opinion. The result of it has truly became a society issue. In the context of Xisan village’s practical activity and action plan, the artists want to take back the rights of speech for villagers by using cell-phone camera.

Xisan Film Production Factory has invited nearly 100 residents in Xisan village to visit the “village” of the city in Shenzhen where 150,000 people are forced to leave it. They take the “village” of the city as the living situation for the residents living in the Pearl River Delta, which is also the material for shooting photos. The reality of the “village” of the city is also the reflection of Xisan village. The collective action aims at providing the villagers with the great opportunity to face their own situation, at the same time, we also attempt act as a citizen journalist: everyone is the recorder and participant in problems; it is hoped that we are able to provide "residents" with  possible space for discussion and imagination when being engaged in city life in the future.

Xisan film studio is not an art institution. It is a “movie festival” which is planed by a group of artists who are living in this village until now. The artists have no rights to intervene the public issues. They have just been temporary established the collective action as a film studio in Xisan village.

The whole project is build on the basic conception of third-party survey and consultant, and it regards the mobile phone as an intuitive tool to explore the rights and interests of people's livelihood of the village among the multiple strengths represented by viaduct bridge, drainage ditch and high-grade residential area. We interpret each short film produced by mobile phone into the separate scene of real movie, and these short films shot for those people who live in here and about the things truly happened at the moment will screen in Xiangqian cinema of the food stall under Dongsha bridge, the hairdressing place of Liangbo, the temporary screening square of Xisan village park and the video halls reconstructed by a house owned by a citizen. We hope that it can be the enlightening space for the villagers’ awareness of their own rights and interests and the public place where the social contradictions and villagers' appeals can be screened.
