Chapter 1189: The sweat behind the brilliance
"Card! Pass!"
With Paul's shout, the first pass was successfully passed, which made a good start for the filming of the whole drama. Everyone gave Megan Fox and Yang Yichen applauding the smooth passage of the first shot. When they came back to watch the monitor replay, everyone felt that the applause was more worthwhile. Megan Fox performed very well and worked hard. During the filming process, they forgot that he was a big star with a body, a delicate, fleshy and expensive star, and was the basic quality that an actor could survive for. [
Megan Fox became famous for "Transformers". She is good at shooting commercial blockbusters and simulated shooting without physical objects in a specific environment. Filming "Galaxy Pioneer" is not stressful for her in adapting.
After the filming officially started, the entire crew entered a very tense shooting stage. The actors need to constantly adjust their state. The director talks about the main actors, and the assistants, and the assistants have to talk about the extras. At this stage, it is impossible to shoot scenes of close-ups with strange beasts, Zergs, etc. Although the brothers have real mechanical objects of strange beasts, it is impossible to promote the shooting in parallel. The long-range close-up shooting must be taken for easy control and expand the advantages of real strange beasts. The difficulty is to increase the difficulty of the actors' performance. This is OK, and the most difficult thing is not to miss it.
Timeline jumps, the actors are always in shooting with exercise, sweat, dust and the state in which the entire body can be photographed by the camera, need to be consistent with the timeline, and not with the actual shooting. This requires special personnel to capture the extras with half the body after each shooting, and record the whole body state. This is like a database, with a very large amount. It is necessary to record relatively large data to ensure that during the shooting process, the real movie timeline will not appear.
The most obvious thing about any missed shot is the sweat stains, dust, and blood stains on your body. This is the easiest part of the missed shot. You will have a series of photos, sweating on your body, which will change the traces. When you finish this scene, if it is the scene the next day, you will also take off your makeup. If it is the scene in one or two hours, you will go to the rest area of the air conditioner to rest. These pauses will change your state. Even if you don’t change your clothes and take a shot after a while, if you don’t put on makeup again, you may have a missed appearance and body condition.
There are many mistakes in this regard in TV series, especially domestic TV series, even in the era of excellent production, not to mention the emergence of large-scale and shoddy TV series in two years. The mistakes are like a standard configuration, but there are also people who are not mistakes in this regard. If you look closely, you can shoot directly according to the progress of the script. As long as it is a scene, you will shoot according to the progress of the script. There is no so-called filming first and then filming. There is no such thing as shooting first and close scenes. There is no big scene at all. The 50 cent special effects added later make you fascinated. Brother, have you not seen a flagpole standing there? How did your helicopter fly over?
Under the scorching sun, wearing standard military uniforms, it is absolutely a torture for the actors when filming. Almost after a while, everyone will choose a cool place. If time allows, they will run back to the fortress building and let the cold wind blow out of the air conditioner cool themselves.
All the staff are in the simplest clothing. Many men are naked and too hot, but it is this heat that takes pictures of the nearby scenery like the alien planet that everyone imagines, and will not give everyone a very obvious earth characteristic.
Desolate, empty, strange beasts appear.
When the scenes of strange beasts appearing, the soldiers standing on the fortress and the actors who need to take their seats to cooperate with aerial and near-scene shooting have no complaints. The price required to give up shooting in the studio and restore the real shooting status is far more than the hard work of the actors. There is also a group of actors, or people who simply cannot be called actors, who need to bear greater pain.
The actual controller of the alien beast mechanical program is at most a small fan in a limited area, and the ability to dissipate temperature is really just a drop in the bucket than what the operator needs to bear.
Under exposure to the sun, the temperature the machinery bears is transmitted to the interior to a certain extent. In a relatively closed space, even if there are gaps around, the wind-blowing and heat-driving effect it can bring is really limited. In a stuffy environment, you must also flexibly control the mechanical control. You will be soaked all over in a few minutes, not to mention that at the beginning of the shooting, their existence was only half a day. In accordance with the director's arrangement, they went to various places to make various moves. They had no shade, and they could only take advantage of the shooting gap to rotate the operators inside.
One comes out, just like fishing out from water. First, a large cup of heat-relieving drinks are given, then take a shower, change clothes, go to the barracks, drink water, and sometimes you have to inject a little glucose, rest and lie down for a while to restore your energy and physical strength.
Yang Yichen saw that he deeply expressed his understanding and admiration for them. Their work was even more tormented than those who opened tower cranes on the construction site in China. At the scene, Yang Yichen communicated with Paul Van Howen and asked the deputy director to increase some rewards to these people with the rules of Hollywood. He could not take too much responsibility and say to others, "I'll add money to you. Every industry in every place has its own unique rules. Unauthorized destruction does not show how kind you are. Instead, it makes people feel that people like you are too reckless and if you can change it, then don't be in this crew openly. In the future, you will have to give extra rewards for all those who work for you and those who work in your crew.
The rewards allowed the operators to continue to suffer, but the various problems during the shooting process were far more than here. What Yang Yichen wanted, what Paul Van Howen wanted, and the scenes that many people wanted to see were required to be shot at a huge price. Every day, when a man, carriage and ship moved, the money was spent. There were not many effective scenes that could be shot every day. Compared to purely filming in the studio, this efficiency was too low and the price was too high. Some people began to question whether such efforts were necessary. Now the mainstream of commercial blockbusters in the world is to shoot in the studio, which completed all the big scenes that made the audience excited. Most investments were spent on post-production. The audience also recognized that they thought that such a film was a blockbuster. Why did we have to find another way? Why didn’t we have to work with everyone at the same pace? Why did we have to pay ten times the effort here to get the benefits that were worse than the other party?
As the male lead, Yang Yichen is persisting as an investor, and others can only keep these questions in their hearts and chat in private, and they all get a lot of rewards, and you do whatever you ask you to do, and why so much.
The filming was going on day by day, and the first melee between the strange beasts and humans finally arrived in several days of running-in shooting. After several days of hard work, each person had some different changes. The strong aura on his body became a little stronger and his delicate aura dissipated a lot. Even Megan Fox and Li Bingbing had a bit of heroism. In addition to filming and studying script roles every day, they had to take at least two or three hours of skin care and maintenance during the rest of their rest time.
Girls can pay for filming, but they have to bear the price of their skin being completely tanned. They don’t want to pay anyway. They found a nursing team at a high price and took care of their skin three times a day to ensure that the effect of makeup and sun exposure will not really hurt their skin.
The same is true for male actors. As an actor, he needs to maintain his image comprehensively. Every day, he also has various skin care products and various care. Only Yang Yichen, who really becomes a warrior in everyone's hearts. Following Paul Van Hovin, he doesn't look like a starring actor, but more like an assistant director, and he is busy with trivial matters. But one thing is that except for admiring his strong physical fitness, everyone should admire the most, don't talk much, don't overestimate the main point, don't express a single opinion, everything is decided by Paul Van Hovin, and he helps coordinate and communicate.
Everyone's success cannot be attributed to luck alone. After seeing Yang Yichen and understanding him, you can feel this sentence more deeply. What the whole world sees is Yang Yichen's success, a miracle he created in less than ten years, but who has seen the efforts he put in every day?
Everyone thinks that shooting is very hard, but no one thinks they are qualified to complain, because they will always see a figure, which is far more than they do, and what big rich and big bosses and big stars can do. Why do we complain about not being able to do it? What else can we talk about success? The flame in my heart that I will be arrogant if I have the chance, I will extinguish myself. Even the most basic struggle and effort feels hard, so what else can you do?
In fact, this was also done on purpose by Yang Yichen. The shooting conditions here are really hard. The water source is because the company has money and it keeps pulling cars here every day, but the supplement cannot withstand the consumption. When taking a bath, the water source that needs to be consumed every day is a very terrifying amount.
From living to eating, from shooting to rest, they are far less comfortable than in big cities, just one thing is enough to illustrate all the situation.
