292 Reckoning
The shooting was at a stalemate.
Justin announced that the crew would start working again and reshoot the scene. After that, the filming came to a standstill because Fan was not in the mood at all..
During the fight, Fan's whole body seemed to be a little timid. Not only did he lose his previous indomitable and domineering aura, but he also couldn't stretch his fists and feet, as if there were invisible ropes binding his hands and feet. This made The confrontation between the two completely lost the sparkling chemical reaction..
Surprisingly, Renly was not injured, but Fan's right leg was really injured. In Renly's flurry of blows, the last kick hit Fan's right leg with his calf, and that heavy blow caused Fan to collapse. My right calf muscle was bruised. It was not serious, but it affected my movement and strength. This had a real impact on the filming of action scenes..
What's worse is that Fan has lost his all-out madness and domineering attitude, and the fighting scenes in the last part have also lost their vitality. The effect presented is really tasteless and disappointing; it even makes people feel that Fan's whole person has been... In the duel between Dominique and Hobbes, he was always at a disadvantage? How can we continue filming the movie?？
Under the influence of Fan, Renly's fighting also lost the unstoppable murderous spirit before, making the chemical reaction of the whole scene unsatisfactory..
This made all the filming stuttery and intermittent, and Justin had to cut a fight into seven or eight different angles or clips, shooting them bit by bit..
Sometimes, you may only shoot for less than ten seconds, and then it feels wrong, and you have to interrupt the shooting and start again; or maybe you shoot for three seconds, and it feels right, but when two people switch positions, it feels wrong. , so I can only interrupt again, readjust, and then continue shooting from the part where the position was changed..
If everyone on the scene hadn't actually experienced the smooth and rapid shooting just now, and the camera's film still retained that scene, almost everyone would have thought that everything just happened was just a dream..
The only good thing is that Justin can feel at ease. He no longer has to worry about Renly and Van killing each other, nor does he have to worry about serious injuries caused by excessive force during the fight..
Although the smoothness of the shooting was lost, at least the crew could slowly edit each scene scene by scene to achieve the effect that Justin expected. Anyway, Justin would also edit a lot of fragments of the shot. Many times A shot may take less than a second.
At this moment, Justin didn't know whether he should be happy or depressed. He managed to capture a perfect mid-range and panoramic shot, but the close-up and close-up shots had to be taken slowly one by one..
The first shot took less than three minutes; but it took two days to carve out the details of the three-minute shot..
“Card! Justin shouted loudly. When he saw the photographer making an "ok" gesture, he felt relieved and announced loudly, "The shooting is over. This scene is over. Let's start preparing for the next scene."！”
Hearing the news, all the crew members breathed a sigh of relief.
This long ordeal was finally over. They couldn't even tell whether the fear before was more terrifying or the fragmentation after that was more torturous. This was really a shooting journey with mixed feelings, but no matter what, it was finally over. That's a good thing.
The staff all entered the set and began to move the props again to prepare for the next scene. Renly took steps toward the rest area, and then saw Nathan in the crowd, and Andy standing next to him. -Rogers.
Renly was slightly surprised, but he still smiled and welcomed Andy, "Why are you here? In comparison, the winter in Los Angeles is more comfortable, right?？”
Recently, Andy has been busy in Los Angeles. The awards season has gradually become more lively, and the academy's public relations has begun to slowly lay out. He has endless things to do almost every day; what's more, Renly is not his only artist. I heard for the first time that Harrison Ford is choosing a new movie.
To take a step back, Renly was filming on the set and was concentrating on his work. There was no need for an agent to accompany him, an assistant was enough..
Regarding Renly's attitude, Andy smiled, "Although I expected your reaction to be like this, I still find it incredible. My artist has had an accident, and his personal safety has been threatened. If I don't If I come in person, who else will dare to cooperate with me in the future?？”
“I thought you had taken care of everything." Renly is not an idiot. Anyone with a discerning eye can see the changes in the crew in the past two days..
The props team went through a major change, replacing seven staff members at once. You know, the entire props team was only more than 30 people; then, James Correll also left, apparently because of the transfer of work positions. , but Renly guessed that he was probably expelled from the crew; in addition, doctors and nurses also checked him three times a day to make sure that the wound was not inflamed. The crew was even equipped with a masseur, who would be there every day after filming. Afterwards, give Renly a relaxing massage.
These detailed changes, without Andy working behind the scenes, would be absolutely impossible for a new actor like Renly to enjoy the treatment. Of course, it is also possible that Renly is just being sentimental, and everything is really just ordinary. Just a job transfer.
Andy smiled and shook his head, "Your reaction gives me no sense of accomplishment at all..”
In fact, when the incident happened, Nathan called him immediately and told him the whole story. The reason why Andy did not come to Rio de Janeiro immediately was to put pressure on Universal Pictures. This accident The accident has reached the bottom line and must be severely punished.
Going to the crew will only solve the superficial contradiction; only by starting with Universal Pictures can we fundamentally solve the underlying problem.
Universal Pictures doesn't want the matter to get into trouble with the Screen Actors Guild. That would be really bad. Even if it doesn't face a lawsuit, the moral criticism is enough. Faced with Andy's "reasonable" request, Universal Pictures Without saying a word, he nodded and agreed, and repeatedly promised that the culprit would be punished severely. The only thing he hoped for was to put an end to the problem..
However, Andy did not compromise easily. It was only one aspect to knock the mountain and shake the tiger. Then, he came to Rio de Janeiro in person to confirm Renly's situation in person..
If Renly is really fine, then he will use this accident to fight for more rights and interests for Renly and maximize the benefits of "injury compensation"; but if Renly's situation goes as expected, he will definitely not It is inevitable to give up and report to the union, and that is only the first step..
As an agent, he must stand on the side of the actors and unswervingly safeguard the interests of the actors. Otherwise, it will only chill the actors. His colleagues will never let go of the opportunity to add insult to injury, and the union will never swallow their anger. If they want to do it again in the future, If you sign an actor, it will be difficult to reach the sky.
Looking at the calm Renly in front of him, the big stone in Andy's heart finally slowly fell, and then he had the energy to joke..
Renly replied, "Do you care about this sense of accomplishment?？”
There was a smile in Andy's eyes. This kind of Renly was the one he was most familiar with. He gently retracted his chin and did not answer, but he recognized Renly's teasing. "How do you feel now? Doctor today Have you checked? Are you sure you don't have a concussion?" Andy confirmed again, because Renly still looked a little embarrassed at this time..
Noticing Andy's eyes, Renly laughed, "It's all makeup..”
In fact, his wound was already healing, and it had no impact on the two days of filming. Even he himself felt embarrassed when the doctor checked him three times a day; however, in order to continue the scene with the previous scene, the makeup artist had to add Some fake blood was used to create the appearance of wounds. The embarrassment on his face now is all the effect of makeup..
“Don't worry, I value my life more than you do." Renly's defense was met with a sneer from Nathan who had been desperately involved in filming in the past two days.？
Renly raised his head and glanced at Nathan, with an innocent expression on his face, and spread his hands, as if he didn't understand where Nathan's "complaint" came from..
Andy looked at Nathan who was standing next to him. When he originally chose Nathan as Renly's assistant, his original intention was just for a transitional purpose. He would deal with this period for the time being. After all, it is not that easy to find a suitable and capable assistant. , and Renly really needs an assistant. Unexpectedly, Nathan has been doing a really good job during this time..
The smile on Andy's lips got bigger, "I'm just reminding you that actors rely on their faces to make a living, you must be careful, no matter how careful you are,.”
“I strongly doubt it." Renly shook his head with a smile and said seriously, "If this is the case, I will probably be living on the streets begging..”
That joking banter made the atmosphere completely relaxed. Not only Andy and Nathan, but also other staff members standing nearby couldn't help laughing. This made Andy feel at ease. After the props team was relieved, the last thing he wanted was What I saw was that staff from other groups also had conflicts..
“Very good, I'll come back to you later. I have some things to deal with now." After confirming with his own eyes that Renly was fine, Andy said simply, then turned around and swayed with his slightly fat figure. He walked towards... where Fan was..
Although Renly is fine, it does not mean that Andy's anger has subsided. To be more precise, his anger has not even exploded yet..
Universal Pictures belongs to Universal Pictures, and the parties involved belong to the parties involved. This is one thing, but it is also two different things. For Universal Pictures, it is a game of interests; but for the culprit and the party involved, it is a head-on confrontation. He has always been Not a soft-hearted person.
Now, it's time to settle accounts after the fall.
