James Cameron is a man who led the film industry go into twenty-first century.When he stood on the stage of Oscar,Cameron waved his hands above his head and shouted,“I’m the king of the world!”Just like what Cameron has said,he really is.

詹姆斯·卡梅隆是一位带领电影走进二十一世纪的人。当他站在奥斯卡领奖台上时,卡梅隆挥手高呼:我是世界之王。就如詹姆斯·卡梅隆所说的那样,他确实是世界之王。

Cameron was born in Canada,his mother is a painter and his father is an electrical engineer.After entering the University of California,he studied physics,but finally he dropped out of school and worked as a mechanic.After he readthe Star Wars,he began to stay in the library all day to study how to make a movie,and his home filled with various filming equipments.

卡梅隆出生在加拿大,母亲是一个画家,父亲是电气工程师。进入加利福尼亚大学后,他学习物理,但最后退学,当过机械工。当他看完了《星球大战》后,他成天泡在图书馆,研究怎么拍电影,并在家里摆满各种拍摄器材。

“One thing you should know,once we begin this adventure,once I started making the film,the only way to stop me is to kill me,”Cameron said.Cameron experienced the taste of failure in his first film.In the process of filming,he didn’t get along well with I-talian staff.When the filming is completed,the producers didn’t let him join the end of the movieclip (剪辑)for his lacking of experience.

“我要你知道的是,一旦我们开始这次冒险,一旦我开始拍摄这部片子,唯一能阻止我的办法就是杀了我,”卡梅隆说。卡梅隆的第一部影片就让他品尝了失败的滋味。在拍摄过程中詹姆斯·卡梅隆和一口意大利语的工作人员相处得并不愉快,而拍摄完毕后,制片方出于对这个羽翼未丰的导演的轻视,不让他参与影片的最终剪辑。

The 25-year-old Cameron got angry,and used a credit card to open the studio door,then tried to useediting machine(剪辑机)by himself.Finally,he successfully used the Italy’s editing machine to do the entire movie clip.In the process,James Cameron determined to no longer work for any person,and began to make his own film. And after that,Cameron began his legend.After working by himself,his great work includes TheTerminator(1984),Titanic(1997),and Avatar (2009).As everybody knows,Titanic(1997),and A-vatar(2009)both were the highest-grossing films in the history.

25岁的卡梅隆一气之下,用一张信用卡撬开了工作室的门,自己想方设法学会使用了意大利的剪辑机。最终,他自己成功剪辑了整部片子。在这个过程中,詹姆斯·卡梅隆下定决心不再为任何人卖命,一定要制作自己的电影。卡梅隆有此展开了他辉煌的电影传奇。由他亲自执导的杰出电影包括《终结者》(1984),《泰坦尼克号》(1997),以及《阿凡达》(2009)。而众所周知的是《阿凡达》和《泰坦尼克号》都是史上票房最好的影片。He was challenging himself all the time.Cameron created the 3D technology forAvatar and now he used a very fashion technology to madeTitanica 3D one.And now we can see that the 1997 filmTitanicin the form of 3D has appeared on the big screen. Cameron revealed the production plan and five big hotspots.Just as he put 3D in film forAvatar,his great idea came again that he decided to use the high-tech method to recreate the film Titanic.And now,we can thank for director Cameron that we get the second chance to experience his great works.

卡梅隆一直在尝试着挑战自己的巅峰。他曾经为了制作《阿凡达》发明了3D拍摄技术。而现在又要用一种时髦的手法将曾经的2D泰坦尼克转变成为3D电影。1997年影片《泰坦尼克号》以3D形式再次亮相大银幕。导演卡梅隆透露了制作计划和五大看点。就像他为了拍《阿凡达》而创造3D技术一样,他又一次灵光乍现,决定用这一高科技手段重新制作当年颇受赞誉的影片《泰坦尼克号》。而现在我们应当感谢卡梅隆导演给我们第二次领略他这部伟大作品的机会。
