1889 Visit the Grand View Garden
Actually, just like that, really, we set off？
Before Chen Zihao and Melanie had time to reflect carefully, they were already in the jeep and driving towards the shooting scene..
“It would be terrible if you were a liar and abducted us into the mountains and forests now." Melanie came back to her senses, resumed her usual witty and humorous appearance, and began to joke.
Nathan chuckled, "Ha, this is your territory, have you forgotten?？”
Amidst the laughter, Chen Zihao slowly came to his senses: the dream is really happening! He still couldn't believe that Renly actually remembered him, and that the promise was true! This... all of this was so incredible that the smile on Chen Zihao's lips couldn't stop at all..
Nathan is not a talkative personality, but Melanie and Chen Zihao, as tour guides, are extroverted types. Because they were on the set of "Jurassic World", the two were even more excited, chattering questions, and chatting inwardly. All Sen had to do was answer, which filled the carriage with joy..
Then they arrived at their destination.
In the distance, a field with a wide view appears in front of you. In the center is a continuous open grassland. The entire open field is at least more than one kilometer long, which can be used to shoot various large scenes; at the far end, you can see the dense grassland. The jungle spreads out vastly, and the undulating horizon like waves allows the line of sight to vaguely touch the forest, and then allows others to greedily explore the shooting taking place in the open space in front of them..
“This is the filming location in 'Jurassic Park'! "As a senior employee of the ranch, Melanie has been on the journey to the movie shooting scene countless times, and she naturally recognized it at a glance..
This used to be the actual filming location for "Jurassic Park". They stayed here over and over every time. There was a big wooden pile not far away, which was the location of the close-up shots of the first part of the series. Every time He must stop and take photos of tourists; in order to highlight the logo, the ranch also placed a "Jurassic Park" sign next to the wooden pile - of course, at this time, the sign was removed for the purpose of filming..
Nathan nodded in affirmation, "This is a little ingenuity from the director, echoing the first film in the series..”
In fact, Colin is a super cinephile. There are many details in "Jurassic World" that pay homage to Steven Spielberg's original trilogy..
In addition, like directors such as Christopher Nolan and Steven Spielberg, he has an inseparable affection for film cameras. For this shooting, Colin used many different types of film cameras to shoot, presenting a The unique grainy texture of the night scenes. One of the cameras is the prototype used by Stanley Kubrick when he shot "2001: A Space Odyssey". The antique camera is Steven Spielberg's personal collection. Just lending it to Colin.
However, Nathan’s understanding of film technology is not even superficial, so these small details of cinephilia don’t mean much..
Compared to Melanie and Nathan, Chen Zihao was so happy that he almost fainted. His eyes greedily and eagerly looked at every corner of the crew, those crane cameras, those shooting tracks, those He felt like his eyes were running out of microphones, on-site makeup tents, work preparations, etc., as if he had entered a world full of magic..
Then, Chen Zihao's gaze became fixed: "Ren Li！”
It was just a low cry, which disappeared into his throat before it could be fully formed, showing his excitement, but Melanie and Nathan still captured those fragmented syllables, and then both looked in the direction of Chen Zihao cast a glance.
Nathan's voice of explanation rang in his ears immediately, "Nick and Tai's scene is not over yet. They are currently filming a scene surrounded by countless dinosaurs. The little guy Tai said that he knew that when he saw dinosaurs He should scream. When they auditioned, they tried simulating screaming into the air; but he couldn't imagine himself being surrounded by dinosaurs and still enjoying it. That was too strange, wasn't it? Trigger the imagination of two little ones.”
“Is Renly directing the performance of two young actors? "Chen Zihao asked curiously.
“It can't be regarded as guidance." Nathan shook his head, "It's more of a guide. Renly came from the academy and has a very deep understanding of the basic skills of acting. However, Nick and Tai have never received professional acting training. They may need some To help adjust the performance, both Renly and Bryce can provide some imaginative guidance..”
“That transparent sphere tour bus is specially designed for this time, right? "Melanie's voice intervened, her focus was always different, "I heard before that the ranch is considering introducing this kind of gyro ball tour bus, and after the movie is released, a new tourism project will be set up at the ranch. , but I don’t know whether it is technically feasible to put it into use on a large scale, and the route planning still needs to be discussed..”
After finishing her speech, Melanie noticed the surprised looks from Nathan and Chen Zihao. She shrugged, "What's wrong?" She said dissatisfiedly, "You focus on the movie, and I focus on the equipment. Isn't this normal? Now The distance was too far, and Renly looked like a kitten with no real sense. When he got closer, I started to pay attention to Renly just like you. To be honest, last time on the tour bus, I didn't realize it at all. It was Renly who arrived there, but didn't look at him seriously..”
Look carefully? What other method do you want to take a serious look at?？
Nathan thought for a moment and couldn't help but laugh, "That is indeed a gyroball viewing car, but the plans for Kualoa Ranch are not very clear." Melanie was right, everyone The focus of attention is different. "In fact, it is not difficult to operate. Nick is doing the operation now. Therefore, if the ranch wants to introduce it, it should not be a problem.".”
While talking, Renly and Bryce had already left the camera range, and the filming continued without affecting the rhythm at all due to the arrival of the two tourists..
But there's something...stupid about watching a performance like this..
The remote shooting scene can be seen up close through the monitor screen, but because there is nothing in the entire field of view, the two young actors must show surprise and admiration, as if they are really among the dinosaurs. ;The problem is that onlookers can't complete their imagination like the actors, so the picture looks like two madmen sighing into the air..
Melanie felt deeply, "I should never be able to become an actor in this life, I can't stop laughing at all.".”
However, this thought only lasted for a moment, and then it changed, because Renly and Bryce appeared on the stage..
In fact, the scene Renly and Bryce prepared to film was also full of absurdity——
A stuntman wore a huge rubber hood of Brachiosaurus. Brachiosaurus is a herbivorous dinosaur similar to a giraffe. It can be regarded as one of the largest herbivorous dinosaurs. However, at this time, the stuntman was wearing a brachiosaurus hood, but only a hood. Then the lower body formed a strange proportion with the long and narrow neck of the Brachiosaurus, and the whole body was full of humor..
That's not all.
There are red dots painted on the brachiosaurus hood, and then wires extend out, and a lot of electronic equipment is dragged behind it, which makes the whole hood more clumsy and out of tune with the surrounding environment. It looks like it is here to cause trouble. circus performers filled the scene with joy.
Renly and Bryce are dressed in regular costumes, which is in sharp contrast to the brachiosaurus hood, and is even a little out of place. The whole scene becomes weird..
Melanie's eyes widened and she couldn't believe her eyes, "...This looks like a high school student's play. All the props are handmade by myself, and there is a sense of 'sincerity' everywhere. It feels--it's actually cheap and rough, but this is actually the most top-notch production in Hollywood. Isn't that wrong?？”
Because it was so straightforward, Nathan couldn't hold it back and laughed directly, "That's motion capture technology. Post-production computer production will do all the work; and now wearing a hood is to give the actors a reference template. The delicate movements of the hands will not appear to be separated from the computer special effects. Simply put, they are more realistic..”
Despite Nathan's explanation, Melanie showed an "I doubt it" attitude, and her eyes were full of disbelief..
Nathan did not continue talking and cast his gaze in the direction of Renly and Bryce. The shooting had officially begun. Melanie and Chen Zihao were both laymen and could not be seen from a distance, so they They cast their eyes towards the monitor screen, but then they discovered that there were two sub-shots on the monitor, and they didn't know where their eyes should be..
But when the show started, nothing was a problem.
Owen walked down from the car, holding his rifle, and carefully looked around. Then he walked towards the Brachiosaurus lying on the ground and groaning in front of him. After making sure that he saw no other threats, Owen fired the rifle. Carrying it on his back, he stopped at the head of the Brachiosaurus.
Bend down and kneel down, carefully checking the status of the Brachiosaurus.
Owen was not in a hurry or in a hurry. His hands paused slightly in the air, as if he was feeling the body temperature of the Brachiosaurus with his palms. Then his right hand gently and tenderly covered the neck of the Brachiosaurus and stroked it gently. His left hand slowly touched the forehead of Brachiosaurus, and looked into the eyes of Brachiosaurus with full eyes and tenderness. The light movements seemed to be caring for a fragile baby, and the softness between the eyebrows made all emotions sink. come down.
Without any words, just an action and an expression, Renly firmly caught the attention of Melanie and Chen Zihao with his performance..
