Chapter 106 Accident

In the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", there are many shots that require the Wizard to be hung. After all, it is a magical and ghost film. In the film, a large number of shots of the Wizard to be hung to express the effect of the characters flying.

But in the final analysis, hanging a wire is always a very dangerous behavior, and even experienced staff dare not promise that there will be no problems.

Especially now in the 1980s, many technologies are not mature. The so-called hanging wire means connecting steel wires with hemp ropes and lifting actors through pulleys.

For trained professionals, because they have had many experiences, they know what to do when they are hung up to ensure safety, and also know how to do it to show sufficient motion effects. Therefore, they are naturally familiar with it when shooting.

But for actors who have not been trained, it may take a lot of time to be familiar with the entire process, let alone the effect required by the director.

However, this is what the staff have to do. They must familiarize the actors with what the hell is about in the shortest time, and at the same time, they must also let the actors master how to make enough action effects in the sky.

According to the plan, I directly asked the substitute to shoot the shots that needed to be hung on the wire, while Akina Nakamori himself only needed to take some close-up shots.

The close-up shot only needs to find a good angle on the ground. It may be a little more laborious to shoot, but it is not as dangerous as hanging a wire.

But since Tsui Hark and Akina Nakamori, who are now directors, both proposed to let Akina Nakamori personally hang the wire, these staff members can only accept their fate and start preparing.

"Miss Aicai, you must remember that lifting your wire is very thin. Although it is very strong, don't move randomly after you are hung up!" Several staff members have helped Aicai Nakamori fix the wire for hanging wires, and are explaining her precautions: "When lifting, you will feel a little uncomfortable. Miss Aicai, you need to endure it. After lifting up, you just need to follow the movements I taught you before, and then we will pull you over the camera. This section will be finished."

Seeing that the staff spoke seriously, Akina Nakamori listened seriously. After he finished speaking, he nodded vigorously to indicate that he had remembered it.

Although I have seen the demonstration of a substitute just now and listened to the staff for a long time, when it was really my turn, Akina Nakamori felt a little nervous, and at the same time she couldn't help but feel a little regretful. What if she fell down later?

However, this little regret was soon overwhelmed by the novelty and excitement brought by being able to "fly". Akina Nakamori stood there and moved for a while, and was hung with steel wires. She was ready and waiting for the director to start.

Chen Yu stood behind Tsui Hark and looked at Akina Nakamori who was preparing to be hung up, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

After all, in this era, the safety of hanging a wire is really bad. There are only a few thin, almost invisible steel wires that need to be hung up by a person. Everyone will worry about what to do if they break it.

But Chen Yu could not say to the crew who had already prepared all of them, "I won't shoot for safety." Even if he is an investor, he wouldn't do that.

So in the end, under Chen Yu's worried gaze, with Tsui Hark's "action", Akina Nakamori was still hung up, and with the help of installed pulleys and equipment, the flying effect of her clothes fluttering.

Looking at Akina Nakamori who was wearing white clothes and was pulled by several thin steel wires and flew past him, Chen Yu couldn't help but sigh that he was indeed the most popular super idol in Japan in the 1980s. Even though he knew that she was playing a female ghost, the first word that came to his mind when he saw her flying over was a fairy.

Akina Nakamori has a very good temperament. With her deliberate makeup and costumes, she gives her a sense of ethereal and elegant feeling that is not a fairy in the world. In addition, the image of her clothes flying after flying makes people feel that she is really like a fairy falling from the sky, and she cannot even have a little blasphemy in her heart.

Even though there have been many beauties who have received various special effects bonuses in later generations, Chen Yu couldn't help feeling heartbroken when facing natural beauties like Akina Nakamori.

But he quickly wiped out his own thoughts. After all, he was all people who already had a girlfriend, so some ideas should not be successful.

This shot was shot very quickly, and in total, it only took less than a minute, which could almost be said to have flashed by. However, a large group of people prepared for this for most of the morning, just for these dozens of seconds of shots. However, when the actual movie was edited, it might have been less than a few seconds.

But that's all about making movies. There is no ordinary audience who sees all kinds of cool, handsome or beautiful things on the screen, and there is only all kinds of endless hard work. At least in this era without computer PS and cutouts, every actor deserves respect.

After this shot was taken, Akina Nakamori was also put down after Tsui Hark shouted "Crack".

Even though her feet fell to the ground for the first time, she felt her heart pounding. However, after calming down her breathing and mood, a novel feeling filled her chest, and many interesting thoughts emerged from her mind.

Maybe you can use this technique for your next concert? It must be very interesting to fly from the sky through the entire concert.

I wonder if this idea can be realized? It seems to be very complicated. Akina Nakamori thought so while waiting for the staff to untie the steel wire on her body.

After all the wires were unbuttoned, Akina Nakamori walked towards Tsui Hark, wanting to see how the camera he had just now, while the staff quickly reset the equipment in case the director felt unsatisfied with the camera just now and wanted to reshoot it.

But this time it was not because the director felt dissatisfied, but because the actor felt that he could do better.

"I think my hands should come over here, so that the clothes will not block my face. There is a place in the camera I just took to cover my whole face." After checking the camera, Akina Nakamori took the initiative to ask for a reshoot.

Chen Yu and Tsui Hark checked the camera and saw that the scene was indeed as Akina Nakamori said, and somewhere was blocked. After communicating for a few words, they nodded and agreed to her request for reshoot.

The staff didn't find it strange when they saw this. They quickly fixed the steel wire for Akina Nakamori, and then prepared to retake the film after checking it.
