102 mercenary group
Eduard-Grau stood in front of the viewfinder, glanced absently, and said perfunctorily, "No problem..”
Alex- Vilgrasa had been busy working on this lighting effect for a full forty-five minutes. When he saw Edward's perfunctory reply, he immediately smashed the microphone sponge in his hand in dissatisfaction, " Stupid/pig, if you continue to be distracted, I will kick your ass! Can you see the expression on your face clearly after the lighter is lit?？”
According to the design, after Paul wakes up in the coffin, the first light source he uses is a lighter. Generally speaking, the lighting space of a lighter is very limited, especially in absolute darkness; but this is a movie shooting, and the light is not bright enough. Not only will it affect the viewing effect, but it will also affect the actors' performances. "Buried Alive" is not a work that tries to create a sense of reality like "Blake". It needs enough light sources to show the details of the performance..
Therefore, Alex, as the person in charge of visual effects, is responsible for sound and lighting. He is adjusting the flame size of the lighter, testing the brightness of the light source, and achieving the effect of gathering light through hidden reflectors; Edward is the photographer Teacher, he must detect the effect from the perspective of photography.
Edward withdrew his gaze, focused on looking through the viewfinder, and then switched to two different angles, showing his professionalism, "No problem. However, when doing close-ups, the angle of the reflector needs to be readjusted. Adjust it and shoot from the side so that the reflector can be seen through the lens..”
Alex also walked to the viewfinder and changed the angle to confirm, and then he knew something in his mind. Standing straight, Alex saw Edward's eyes starting to drift to the side again, and he felt helpless, "Why are you bothering? What? We are just temporary mercenaries, just working together on a film. He is British, and he will probably not come to Spain to film in the future. There will be no intersection between us in the future..”
Not far away, Renly sat quietly on a pile of wood, lowering his head and reading the script seriously. His script habit was very strange. He was not reciting lines or browsing the plot. His eyes always stayed on one page of the script. At a glance, he still couldn't read it. I thought he was distracted and not paying attention to the script at all, but after a closer look, I could see that he was repeating the same paragraph over and over again, and then fell into deep thought, as if he was fighting a war with himself..
To put it nicely, it’s investment; to put it worst, it’s nerves..
“Tell me, is he just showing off, or is he real? "Edward couldn't hold it back after all. He lowered his voice and discussed it with Alex. However, before Alex could answer, Edward said directly, "I think he must be putting on airs. He looks like he has graduated from high school at most. How is that possible? What strength does it have? I really don’t know what happened to Rodrigo and why he chose such an actor. Could it be that he slept with Rodrigo?？”
Faced with Edward's provocation, Alex knew that he was still thinking about the embarrassment just now - Edward was the big curly boy just now..
In fact, Edward's joke itself is nothing. If it is the kind of face-to-face teasing and joking between men, there are countless more ugly and ugly ones. Not only will it not destroy the relationship, but it will become a topic of conversation for them; but if it is said behind their backs, The bad words were exposed on the spot. That kind of ugliness and shame really makes people unable to stand up..
No one expected that Renly's Spanish would be so good. It would be like using Chinese to curse someone abroad and suddenly discovering that the other person's Chinese is as good as yours. That would be really embarrassing..
Edward was a little angry, but Alex didn't want to get involved in this muddy water..
”Buried Alive "There are only eight people in the entire crew, a photographer, a special effects artist, a director's assistant, a makeup artist, a stage manager, and then a director, a screenwriter and an actor. There are only eight people. Except for the three core creators, Alex and Edward are just mercenaries. They are not professionals with a good reputation, they are just fringe people who have been trained by themselves..
As he said, they were hired to film "Buried Alive" and went their separate ways after the filming. There was no need to worry about it..
”We'll know the results soon as we start filming, right? Is it an embroidered pillow or a valuable antique?" Alex shrugged and said nonchalantly..
To be honest, leaving aside Edward's personal grudges, Alex is actually a little curious about where Renly Hall came from..
Objectively speaking, Renly doesn't look like a high school student at all. He has a beard at this time. The neatly trimmed beard adds a touch of vicissitudes and maturity. The golden brown curly hair that has not been deliberately taken care of is slightly messy. It seems that he hasn't washed his hair for a day or two, and it is a little greasy, sloppy and messy. The only discordant thing is his eyes, which are as bright as stars and sparkling with vitality. The brilliance of the flower bones in bloom is definitely not the same. He might be thirty years old, but if he was told that he was twenty-five or six years old, Alex would be willing to believe it..
But even so, it is definitely not an easy task to play the role of Paul Conroy well..
He looks... he doesn't look aggressive at all. It's not that he's bad, but he lacks the unstoppable energy of some actors - of course, the moment of understatement against General Edward's army is an exception..
After saying hello, he did not continue to pursue Edward's fault, nor did he use the momentum to resolve the embarrassment with them and get along with them. Instead, he sat alone and studied the script. The staff was nearby. After preparing for the shooting, an hour passed in the blink of an eye. He sat there for an hour, not being disturbed by the surrounding atmosphere at all, and not moving at all. Is this definitely not a symptom of autism?？
Edward couldn't predict what Renly would be like after he started filming, nor could he predict what Renly's performance would look like. Deep down, he also had some vague expectations..
“Humph, let's wait and see." Edward curled his lips and wanted to say something, say something harsh, but finally stopped, turned his head, and started busy mumbling in a low voice..
Adriana Guerra stood in front of Renly, waving her hands politely, trying to attract Renly's attention, but failed. Renly was still looking at the script in his hand intently, as if he didn't have any attention at all. Realizing that a person appeared in front of her, she had to shout, "Sir, Mr.？”
Renly then raised his head, glanced around blankly, and slowly focused on Adriana, with confusion in his eyes. Adriana raised the cosmetic bag in her hand, "I'm here to do your makeup. We need to cover up your handsome cheeks." She joked in a teasing tone..
Renly raised the script in his hand and said, "I will pay more attention to my script so that it does not affect your work." Then, Renly sat up straight, raised the script slightly and pulled it further away, so that it would not affect your work. You can show your face and continue the script.
Adriana was stunned, her joke actually failed, which made her a little embarrassed. She could only gather her emotions, and she also started to get busy, concentrating on the work of makeup..
Paul Conroy's makeup is actually not difficult, because this is not beauty makeup, but makeup that is as close to real life as possible, a makeup that truly shows Renly's original appearance; or to be more precise, dirty The makeup shows that Paul was in a state of embarrassment, sweating profusely, and even his face was shiny after being kidnapped..
Adriana quickly finished her work and said kindly, "It's done, you can go on camera now."！“
Renly held up the script and put it down. He nodded and made an "OK" gesture, and showed a slight smile to Adriana, "Thank you for your hard work.".“
That faintly warm smile warmed Adriana's heart, and she couldn't help but reply with a bright smile, "This is my job. I'm really looking forward to your next performance." Adriana was positive She said quietly, but unexpectedly, Renly's attention turned to the script again, and she seemed to have no intention of continuing the conversation. This made her suddenly feel embarrassed, and her smile froze at the corner of her mouth..
After staying there for a few seconds, Adriana realized that Renly had no intention of talking at all, and her enthusiasm hit a big iceberg - she had stood here for so long, not to mention her admiring eyes, Lanly Li didn't even think about raising his head, and embarrassment suddenly surged over him, "So good luck." Adriana said a word, then turned around and left in stride..
After walking some distance, Adriana couldn't help but stop, turned around and looked around again, and found that Renly still had no reaction and was completely immersed in the script. She couldn't help but stamp her feet and shouted angrily. Leaving in stride.
Compared with the "Pacific War" crew, the "Buried Alive" crew is not only smaller in scale, but the order on the set is also a bit chaotic. The drama staff are not familiar with the business, and the work efficiency is very low. The organization and discipline of the mercenary group are very average. Fortunately, this is a small crew with not many people and jobs, otherwise it would be even more unimaginable..
Renly was completely unaware that in just one hour, he had become the target of the crew, and he had inadvertently offended him. Even if he knew, he had no time to care about it, because he had to devote himself wholeheartedly to the role. Now he is not one of those acting masters who can enter the performance state anytime and anywhere. He needs to be fully prepared before committing to a performance..
“Renly? Renly! Rodrigo stepped forward and called three times in a row but still received no response. Finally, he had to take action and dangled Renly's eyes from the script before he got a response, "It's time to start shooting.".”
