1875 Escape from the tiger's mouth
Acting is really a very wonderful thing, especially when the opponent's scene can burst out sparks, the unique perspective of the whole scene can show the powerful charm of the movie.——
Because in stage plays, all relationships are presented flatly, and the audience can only examine the stage effect from a single perspective; but in movies, through the changes and operations of lens scheduling and picture composition, they can enter into the relationship between characters. It captures a more three-dimensional effect. Of course, this is also the reason why group scenes are difficult to shoot. The skill of controlling group scenes is definitely one of the most difficult. Robert Altman’s control of group scenes can be said to be the pinnacle..
At this time, Colin stood in front of the monitor, and he was able to capture the subtle characteristics of the five-pointed show in front of him: with Renly as the core, he alone mobilized the momentum, personality, attitude and impulse of the other four raptors. Get up, and then control the scene through your own control, just like a master!
The ease with which the performance aura unfolds is truly eye-opening.
Originally, Colin planned to create a sense of tension at close range through close-ups of split shots, thus avoiding the difficulty of controlling large scenes. The shortcomings of motion capture technology cannot be ignored; but now, he wants to see the whole scene. The arrangement of the mid-shot and even the long shot of the scene presents the confrontation between Owen and the four raptors, and then presents the action aura and scene control of Owen's animal-taming posture. This is definitely a powerful visual impact..
It’s unimaginable that actors playing opposite each other can create such an effect.
Remember? The original intention of this scene is to establish Owen's character and image. "Looking handsome" is a key point. Now Colin is beginning to think about how he should make Renly look more handsome and charming. This is not a difficult task. But he needs to change the camera scheduling and picture composition.
The brainstorming in Colin's mind has already begun, and now he can't help but start gearing up..
Colin standing in front of the monitor, as a director, his perspective of observation is naturally different; while the shooting scene in the animal cage is still focused, the atmosphere has not been disrupted at all, and is leading to the whole story step by step. At the final climax of the scene, all the eyes of the audience were focused on Owen. No one was exempt, including the four raptors..
“very good! Very good performance! Owen said in a deep voice. His hands were completely open, but they still formed an angle of about 90 degrees. He faced the four raptors in front of him in an open-minded way. His footsteps finally stopped moving laterally and started to move. Moving backward step by step, the whole posture slowly and slowly settles down.
This is a retreat?
So, does it represent defense? And can four velociraptors attack??
The momentum balance was broken, but the four raptors did not dare to move forward rashly, because Owen's retreat rhythm was very, very slow, like a small boat moving leisurely on a calm lake. Therefore, although the raptors and Owen were both Slowly moving in the same direction, but the situation still maintains a balance and has not been completely destroyed for the time being..
“Close the floodgates! Owen said loudly.
Barry was stunned, "You're crazy?”
Owen gently licked his lips with the tip of his tongue, seeming to be enjoying the thrill of this moment. The pervasive smell of blood brought out the iron-blooded tough guy temperament in his whole body from the inside out, and his deep eyes flashed slightly. Liang, with confidence and courage shining like this, slowly said word by word, "Believe me!”
The rookie who had just been rescued was lying next to the gate in a very embarrassed state, staring at Owen who was dancing on the wire rope with a horrified look on his face. At this time, he didn't even care whether Owen was in danger or not. The only thought in his mind was to demand. He wanted to stay away from the group of raptors, so he shouted regardless, "Close the gate."!”
Barry turned his head and glared at the rookie - to be so ungrateful, but this was Owen's request, and he had no way to refute it. In the end, he could only look at Owen again, unable to breathe. He got up in a hurry, stood there, hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth viciously, cursed in French, rushed to the side, and pressed the button to close the gate..
The gate, which had descended halfway just now, is now slowly closing..
“Beep! Beep! beep!”
The alarm sound of the gate closing was continuously echoing, becoming more and more urgent and oppressive, as if it was teetering on the edge of the cliff. Then the air began to tighten, and the tension between Owen and the Velociraptor could be clearly detected. The atmosphere of the confrontation is changing subtly, just like the cigarettes on the fingertips are beginning to curl up: traces can be clearly captured by sight, but it happens silently.
Owen's footsteps and movements stopped, and he opened his hands completely, firmly controlling the horns of the four raptors in his palms. He could faintly notice that the atmosphere and state were different.:
Delta was testing the edge of danger, Charlie continued to move forward in small steps, Eco was a little hesitant, and Blue stood firmly on the spot, but Blue was looking at Owen carefully. , seems to be thinking and calculating, that subtle emotional change gradually becomes clear as the air temperature rises.
Irving did not retreat further.
He just stood there, maintaining the balance of the scene, with his hands and body fully coordinated. You could faintly notice that he was adjusting his muscles, but more importantly, his eyes were focused on Blue's eyes, without any hesitation at all. , without any flinching or fear.
There is no unnecessary expression on the face, no pretense of relaxed smile, and no righteousness of words. The whole face reflects the concentration; but on the forehead, you can see that sweat is quietly seeping out, little by little. The small details still revealed Irving's nervousness at the moment..
Outsiders thought he was in control of the overall situation, but only he knew that he had no control over anything at all. He and Velociraptor could only be regarded as two parties initially building a bridge. They remained friendly for the time being, but they could not guarantee anything, let alone "control". Got it.
Facing prehistoric creatures like Velociraptor, everything is new - humans are also new to Velociraptor. No one can be sure that he is in control of everything. He must maintain respect and awe, without any arrogance or pride. They may die without a burial place. In other words, if human beings try to play God and think that they can control everything on the earth and that they are the top of the biological chain, then disaster and even destruction are not far away. This is Owen's philosophy from beginning to end.
Only the slight sweat on his forehead can give a faint glimpse of Owen's huge pressure at this time. Hidden behind the immortal's Bagua push hand movements, there is a danger that both muscles and nerves are tense to the extreme. A little negligence may break them. The balance of the scene, and this is what Irving absolutely does not want to see.
Despite this, Owen's eyes could not capture any panic. The more dangerous the moment, the calmer he became. You could even see the faint restraint on his brows, suppressing all emotions and conveying his feelings with his eyes. information:
calm! calm! calm!
Samuel could clearly see the look in those eyes. The powerful aura controlled all the situations, and even created the illusion of locking the air. This also made him never dare to step forward rashly, for fear of After he breaks the deadlock, he may face dangers that he doesn't even know about, and the tension that makes his spine break out in a cold sweat is slowly spreading..
Not only Samuel, but also Pete, Brad and Scott standing nearby seemed to be able to sense the atmosphere. They were all catching Samuel's movements with their peripheral vision. Although they were eager to try, they still couldn't. The failure to cross boundaries also made the scene barely maintain balance..
Breathe. Breathe. Breathe..
Owen kept adjusting his breathing, keeping his body muscles in a relaxed state. Just when the air slowly became tense and almost reached its peak, he retracted his limbs without warning, turned around and stepped forward. , in the process of retreating, the body rushed towards the gate like an arrow..
Such movement breaks the balance in an instant.
Blue was the first to smell the opportunity, and immediately flew out, roaring, as if he was dissatisfied that he had been deceived by the prey; almost at the same time, Delta and Charlie also rushed forward, from the left and right sides. He jumped forward, even more fiercely than Blue. Only Aiko was half a step behind and did not rush forward immediately..
The bloody storm swarmed in like this!
But Irving still seized the opportunity.
There were only about three to four steps between his footsteps and the gate. After calculating in advance, Irving chose to exert force in advance. He turned around and pressed down his body at the same time. After just one step forward, he lowered his right shoulder to He jumped down in a diving position, his body immediately curled up, landed on his right shoulder, quickly completed a forward roll, and then his body passed through the gap under the gate and entered the protective range..
Kick on the ground, turn around, rush forward; lean down, jump, land on the ground; roll, walk through, squat.
The whole movement can be said to be completed in one go. In a flash, the agility and lightness of the movement were brought into full play. He held his breath tightly and calculated all the situations smoothly. It was completed in less than half a second. Escaped, and then four raptors rushed over closely behind, hitting the iron railings of the fence one after another..
Escape from death, escape from danger.
It was really a critical moment, and after escaping, Owen's eyes also showed a trace of astonishment and panic. The fear on the line of life and death broke out at this time. He couldn't even believe that he had really escaped, just like this alone. He knelt on the ground and stood there, a little unable to recover..
